The importance of villain IQ

Well, it seems that the story that the rifle can't hit the pistol comes from here, and "Overwatch" is also a tribute to this movie.

In the story of a typical ranger, the East and West rangers have similarities. In short, it is very realistic. How can one walk in the rivers and lakes without being knifed, and rely on friends at critical moments. Every action is hovering between life and death.

But the villain’s IQ is still worrying. When the protagonist (is the ranger without a name?) was detained, few people watched. Ramon just saw someone set on fire after entering, and after going out, he would not let his subordinates look around. I went to a shop and hotel in the distance to look for it. In the end, as a sharpshooter, he found that he couldn't move his body. Isn't the first reaction to a headshot quickly?

Maybe the old movies at the time were easy to make this kind of mistake, but the strong villain is the key to the protagonist's sublimation.
