It takes skills to get along with people

Another movie I've been wanting to see for a long time. Not surprisingly, it's still wonderful.

For Uncle Kevin, from "House of Cards" to "The Usual Suspects", "American Beauty", and "Ace vs. Ace". If you ask me how good his acting is, I will probably think for a while, "I don't know if it is very good or not, anyway, every time I watch it, I never pay attention to the acting. He is that person, the politician, the weak, the Failed middle-aged man and negotiator."

Then I was surprised to find that I have watched almost all the black uncle's dramas. Samuel Jackson, I need to silently repeat this name a few times in my heart, maybe next time... forget it. Face blindness is my problem.

The setting of the two male protagonists is the same wonderful performance. Justice must end in victory. The acting skills of the entire staff are online, the eyes of the hijacked raiding police officer, the handshake of trust after understanding the matter, the look of the female assistant with the superior's eyes when she said the computer password and the look of the gangster after she said Danny's whereabouts, is it guilty or dodging, the little gangster His temperament, full of famous quotes from famous people, is really like that, the investigator who was suspected of having a problem from the beginning, the innocent face and the first rescued "hostage".

The plot, of course, is full marks. It's not just because you can't guess who the final boss is, can't guess which one is loyal and which one is a traitor in the police force, can't guess what the two negotiators will say or do next, and the computer on the table shows What happened, I don't understand why the investigator refused to admit it when the facts were so "clear".

If you want to know what's so exciting about the afternoon-to-night negotiation in the movie, from mutual probing to mutual trust, what skills did they use, when to push and when to back down, how to use the public and the media , to win over and influence people's hearts. If one day I want to be more powerful, or stop chatting by pretending to be crazy, I will probably do some research. Of course, I should probably change. This is something.

I have always had a little resistance to the films of the last century. After all, the times are progressing, and I really dare not say with confidence that I will like those "yellowish" films and "rough" painting styles. But the reality is always slapped in the face, except for the heavy computers and classic cars, which have been replaced, there is no one that can be replaced.

The above is to make the "film review" look more complete, not like writing a diary of your own mind, but a little bit of effort. It's also a little bit of effort for the recommendation.

Below is the diary time.

I have to say that the first thing that touched me in the movie was the line Danny said after taking the hostages at the headquarters, "We've known each other for 20 years, and we've worked together for so long, and you don't even know." In the face of "old friends" who have known each other for many years, you don't even know who I am. How sad. In the face of a room of guys, I actually need to ask a stranger for help, and only he cares about my life and death. The helplessness and depression of being betrayed by the whole world hit.

At the beginning of the movie, the commanders, assaulters, snipers and negotiators with their own divisions of labor perform their duties. What's really going on behind this deadly relationship?

Two people who don't agree with the way you behave and have different values. Or we call him someone who has prejudice and prejudice against you, they will not give you a good look from beginning to end, because you are my superior, and because you obey the rules, I will do what I should do. If you are a "bad guy" or make a "mistake" they will immediately clean you up. Unless you can break the stereotype. So the guy in the movie who only wanted to use force to solve criminals, I always thought he must be doing this because he was afraid of being exposed, but he was targeting Danny from the beginning, even after Danny successfully rescued the hostages and got uniform After the perpetrator, so it's just prejudice. Prejudice kills people.

The sniper who always likes to bite the toothpick, whether it's because of Danny's shout-outs, or because he's under pressure to shoot his comrades, or because he genuinely believes that Danny didn't kill. In any case, he finally put down the gun. Be a kind person.

"It's not a secretary, it's an assistant" "I won't be afraid, even if you put a gun at me I won't give in" "Fuck sexism, I'm a woman but I don't need sympathy"...and the same It was this female assistant with justice and unyielding written all over her face. Take a peek at your superior's computer (probably so, otherwise, how can you be so clear about the process), explain everything she knows to the "kidnap", and tell the police where Danny is going, just one click away Full disclosure. And compared with her, it was the gangster who was full of swearing and cowardly at the beginning, "I will never trust you guys again, what do you want to hear from me, stop dreaming". So, sometimes, don't believe what a person says and the first impression, you have to get along.

After watching the movie in mourning, even if it is a complete happy ending, it can't help but make people think about how to get along with it. Will the friends around me be willing to believe me because they know what kind of person I am, or are they hesitant to "don't know", then what are they? I don't need them to love what I love and stay with me, just understanding, respect and trust. If you have doubts, you fall into an abyss, a hole you dug for yourself. I think the reason for distrust is not the sadness of making friends. In other words, in the movie, it is not because friends are untrustworthy, but the help of a completely innocent third party who can think in your shoes. So instead of sighing at the indifferent relationship and misunderstanding, not entangled in the abuse of friends and wives, but to find that third person, and establish a reliable relationship in a limited time, if it eventually evolves into friends who trust each other, then More perfect and awesome.

    It's impossible to play this film if you don't allow two old drama bones to support it. The first 28 minutes is really procrastinated, and the back is very compact, although it is very the main theme...

    If one day you really found out that all the friends around you want you to die, who would you believe? danny chooses to trust a stranger. Of course, a smart stranger.

The Negotiator quotes

  • [Talking to Omar about Pit Bulls]

    Lieutenant Danny Roman: There's the right man's best friend and the wrong man's worst enemy.

  • Lieutenant Danny Roman: [while trying to talk down a Hostage Taker through a closed door] Yeah, I like animals better than people sometimes... Especially dogs. Dogs are the best. Every time you come home, they act like they haven't seen you in a year. And the good thing about dogs... is they got different dogs for different people. Like pit bulls. The dog of dogs. Pit bull can be the right man's best friend... or the wrong man's worst enemy. You going to give me a dog for a pet, give me a pit bull. Give me... Raoul. Right, Omar? Give me Raoul.

    Omar: [shouting at his Pitbull that is constantly barking] I fucking hate Raoul! Shut the fuck up, asshole! Son of a bitch won't shut up!

    Lieutenant Danny Roman: [to his partner Nathan] Hates Raoul. Farley fucked up the list.

    Lieutenant Danny Roman: [talking again to Omar through a door] Yeah... I can dig it, Omar. I had a dog like that... a poodle. She didn't bark, though... She pissed on the floor. I hated that dog. But if I was ever depressed... she'd lay her head in my lap, look up at me with those big old eyes. And even though I thought I hated that dog... I loved her. It's like that, ain't it? That love-hate thing.

    Omar: [getting more erractic] No more goddamned talk! I can't wait anymore. I want my wife! I want her up here. Or I'll do our daughter. Listen to me... no more talking. I want that bitch or I'll do the girl.

    Lieutenant Danny Roman: Omar, I'm doing the best I can here, man.

    Omar: I'm not going to hurt her. I just want her to see me blow my brains out. I want her to think about that when she's sucking that fat prick's cock.
