An unforgettable film

A movie that people will never forget when they watch it. From now on, every time I watch gangster movies and gunfight movies, I unconsciously compare it with "Love".

The last chase was too exciting and too classic. There is no blazing gunfight, the camera moves and switches, the characters run and avoids, there is a sense of urgency that the arrow has to be sent on the string, which is critical and exciting. It turns out that the essence of "chasing and killing" lies in "chasing", not "killing." Beauty is in the process, not the end.

In the pursuit, Calido showed his alertness, wisdom, and agility. He avoided the people who were chasing him head-on, but he did not escape the betrayers and cold shots. The world has changed, and the rules of the game have changed. This is a world that Calido cannot understand. A generation of heroes finally failed to wait for the sun to rise on a new day.

    The complex of gangster films started from Hong Kong films. In the eyes of us socialist flowers, it seems to be a world out of reach, where the rule of law is weak, life is like a must, and people are afraid.

    I am probably Al Pacino Insulator, the most insensible one of all De Palma movies. The elevator and train are almost copies of Untouchables and Dressed to Kill. The powerless feeling of wanting to get out but getting more and more imprisoned is far less charming than the simple "Escape to paradise".
