I think this film is good

In fact, you have to watch this movie as a chainsaw, of course it doesn’t look good. But this film is thought-provoking, thinking about the social system and human nature.
The poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer. When murder is not illegal, officials above level 10 can be exempted. This is the power of the rules, and the people will always be played with. Most of the people killed were poor, so the society improved. All the people who are holding back are gone, those who don't have money to buy a house are dead, those who are idle are dead, those who don't do their jobs are dead, and those who play games every day are also dead. Because they have no money, no money to buy NB's security system. No money to deploy good weapons and equipment. This society is like this, such people have been eliminated. This is a cruel society, but isn't our society so progressive? The interests of the poor are always trampled on, and the government always serves the interests of the strong.
Speaking of human nature, when disaster strikes, will you personally kill an innocent person in front of your own children? To obliterate the last trace of innocence in children's hearts? When I saw the black man being put into the house, I scolded the bear boy countless times. It was a brain-dead. Isn't this harming my whole family? If I absolutely send the black man out to die, it's my business. 99% of the audience will have this idea, but have you realized that for the safety of your loved ones and yourself, you can trample on the interests of anyone weaker than you? Even the life of an innocent person? Today you sacrificed him to save the whole family. One day, someone will sacrifice your interests for his whole family, right! That black man is not someone else, he may be any of us.
I suddenly remembered the epitaph on the tombstone of the German priest:

When they came to arrest the Communists, I didn't speak because I was not a Communist.
When they came to arrest the Jews, I did not speak because I was not a Jew.
When they came to arrest Catholics, I did not speak because I was not a Catholic.
Later, when they came to arrest me, no one could stand up and speak for me.

Thinking of this, watching the development of the plot, I couldn't help but start to change my mind. I support the actor's decision not to hand over the black man. When you are out of business, you will never care about the interests of other people. When you are trampled on, no one will speak for you anymore. Ha ha, cruel reality, indifferent humanity.
When our society is instigating us to pursue interests endlessly, you are trampling on the interests of other people, and you are trampling on the fairness you are pursuing, and this society is progressing in this way. A country that only values ​​interests, a nation that only values ​​interests, and a selfish and indifferent individual. Therefore, the No. 1 box office film in North America, after our magical transition, everyone started to give negative reviews.
I can only think in this way. For this reason, I laughed when I saw the comments of 1 star and 2 stars. It was not a show of superiority. What I saw from it was the disregard for life and the rejection of the weak. Endless indifference and selfishness. Because after watching the movie, everyone will only discuss whether the plot is reasonable, whether the scene is superb, and whether the music is thrilling enough. As for the lives that disappeared, they all chose to ignore them.
Perhaps this is the No. 1 box office film in North America, and here is the real reason for the bad reviews.

    A movie that does nothing but the setting. The small details of patching the gun and hugging the child are quite real.

    A textbook-level interpretation of pretending to fail. First, there was a stupid and grand worldview in the setting (like a science fiction composition written by elementary school students), and then a Notre Dame family was arranged as the background of the story, and then the family and an old black played hide-and-seek in their own home, and then came again A group of middle-2 young people also wanted to play peekaboo, so they played together. In the end, the neighbors of the Notre Dame family were not happy. You didn't bring us when you played peekaboo? Do it decisively!
