A snail with its shell shattered

The first part: about
the movie. As early as its global release, I watched the trailer at the Central Sixth World Film and Television Expo. I was deeply attracted by its "black" theme and vowed to watch it. At that time I didn't know anything about movies.
Today I finally realized my wish, and I followed Ethan Hawke and trained with Denzel Washington for a whole day.
So I discovered two things: 1. My mental state of the "grey mysterious" anti-narcotics policeman Alonzo has always been on the same level as the rookie policeman, including the awe and respect at the beginning, and the doubts and hesitations and hesitations in the middle several times. , Until the end, after distinguishing right from wrong, he was resolute and angrily determined. This shows that I am a guy who is easy to be deceived and fooled, but is never easy to be attracted to coercion.
2. Denzel Washington is really scary! I just found out that a film about the American medical system that I have always been thinking about is also starring in him, called John Q. When I was watching the movie, I hadn't been in contact with the movie, and I didn't even know him personally. That movie made me scratch my heart and pierce my heart. Now, the subject matter is close to life, but it is an example of people's extreme reactions under extreme conditions. It is similar to the movie Ace vs. Ace, which really attracts attention. But more importantly, his performance was so real that I mistakenly thought he was a real person. Later, I looked at the American gangsters, the Philadelphia story, and the hurricane. I couldn't associate every character with the same actor, except for the name, even the face, let alone the body movements, facial expressions, and tone of voice. This kind of performance method of completely getting rid of oneself and devoting the soul to shape the soul in another play is called a madman. So far, I have seen three actors of this type, one is Edward Norton, the other is Kate Winslet, and the other is Denzel Washington.


Part 2: About the unspoken rules
When reviewing related film reviews, I found that someone mentioned thick black studies. I have never known what the hell is the Hou Hei Xue who is in the top row of bestsellers in the bookstore. I can understand what he said about him. If you put Hoheiology and unspoken rules side by side, from a grammatical point of view, they belong to the semantically similar vocabulary. The so-called "hidden rules" are the potential underwater, that is, the rules below the surface. They are the overlords that breed in secret, and they are even more arrogant and domineering. The unspoken rules in all walks of life are often understood by people and word of mouth. Everyone knows that we will pay the corresponding price for breaking the broad-day laws, but if you don’t abide by the unspoken rules, someone will punish you on its behalf.
At this time, I want to know, who makes these unspoken rules? What right do they have to control the behavior of others, and how do they implement these rules?
Yesterday I reviewed the seven deadly sins. There was a line in it. It was roughly: Adding drugs is easier than staying away from drugs, robbery is easier than work to make money, and destruction is easier than creation... I think this is the source of the unspoken rules. Earth creatures will be controlled by gravity, and free fall becomes the most labor-saving action. Keep falling like a "beautiful beauty" with fatal temptation, effortlessly, without any work, you can reach out and reach, and at the same time you have to choose to give up the right to act and think independently. This process is called depravity. Depravity is indeed the easiest thing in this world.
People always want to take shortcuts to accomplish things, hoping to save time and effort. The unspoken rule tells you that following it you will take a shortcut, saving time, effort and worry; against it, you are taking a journey, which takes time, effort and effort. But they—the unspoken rulers in various industries—will not tell you what you will lose if you go downstream and what you will gain if you go upstream. This group of nasty guys wish that people all over the world would be as dirty and depraved as them. Only everyone knows this account.
Whenever a shameless person sits in front of me, he smiles and says to me, "This world is like this. This is reality. You have to be smart and learn to adapt to it. Don't try to compete with it. What should you do?" At that time, I would spit on his face.
I want to see what the hell in this world is, and then I decide how to survive. No one has any right to engage in pyramid schemes with another person, spreading your understanding of the laws of survival under the dense visual system. Those unspoken preachers, don't feel too good, even if you think you are covering the sky with one hand, it is bigger than the sky, remember: what you are covering this sky is just a group of rats. Ha ha.
Finally, please don't easily break the shell of the snail, it is not easy to mess with.

    This film by Fuquai is really good, the script, characters, performance, and values ​​are almost perfect. The first half of the film is full of deceptiveness. Under Denzel Washington’s domineering performance, the audience mistakenly believed that the story that the director was going to show was just a black police detective who was both righteous and evil and used violence to control violence. How to adapt to the rules of the game in the jungle world. But after Ethan Hawke completed self-help by accident, we realized that all this is just a hoax set up by the director and the characters in the film. The film seems to simply focus on a day when a novice police officer received training, but in fact, it reveals to us that another police detective who has no faith or bottom line and betrayed the principles of justice was abandoned by self, colleagues, family and ethnic groups. process. In the end, the "snail", who adhered to the concept of the legal system and self-discipline, defeated the "wild wolf", who was confusing and irresistible, and when he returned to his family, the audience also completed a shocking screen education and psychological punishment.
