Everyone likes superheroes, whether it's Spiderman, Iron Man, or Batman.
They are the incarnation of justice, they know right from wrong, and save people from fire and water.
But liking belongs to liking. When we encounter injustice in real life and appeal for helplessness, we will not pray for their protection.
They are fake after all.
Today I want to talk to you about a real hero who is hidden in the folk.
He punished evil, helped the poor, and helped the poor. He is a true reckless hero.
Eunuch 2
The Equalizer 2
The male protagonist McCall used to be a member of the National Black Ops Commando, living in a violent and dangerous environment all year round.
After the unfortunate death of his wife, McCall fraudulently left the organization.
After changing his face and hiding his name, he finally led a peaceful life.
But long-term high-intensity assassination work makes McCall become rigid and serious.
As always, he maintains a rigorous lifestyle, generally speaking, he is Turtle Hair and Virgo.
I like to drink tea, and I also bring my own tea bags when I go out in the small bar; I like neatness and rules, and every time I place things, I must strictly follow the standards...
Looking at him, it was as if he saw Leon in "This Killer Isn't Too Cold".
They are the same lonely, the same stunts, the same in the dark but the heart toward the light.
No matter what kind of adversity you are in, you will not improve your good nature.
As the saying goes, small hides in the wild and big hides in the city , while McCall hides in the noisy market, observing the joys and sorrows of the people around him from the eyes of ordinary people.
In the first part, he was a tally clerk in an ordinary IKEA store.
In the event of a robbery, they will secretly help colleagues get back the ring left by their mother; the police who will quietly deal with blackmailing friends...
For him, it was just a sparse and ordinary fight, but for friends and colleagues, it was a life-changing opportunity.
In this section, he is a full-time online ride-hailing driver, honestly and conscientiously.
However, at the beginning of the film, on a Mercedes-Benz train, he cracked a child abduction case.
In line with the principle of doing good deeds without leaving a name, he left the child directly at the police station.
When I drove to a girl who was being bullied, I immediately turned around to find a group of rich second-generation theory.
The black card opened the scoop, broke his arm, and saw my adrenaline soaring!
Obviously it is a crime-type action movie, but I have seen the quagmire of Chinese martial arts movies in the film .
In martial arts movies, the spirit of a knight to help each other is commonplace.
However, in "The Eunuch", this spirit is also vividly performed by the actor Denzel Washington .
Compared with the first part, the second part is somewhat procrastinated and hypocritical in dealing with several minor clues.
Some netizens even commented that McCall is not an avenger, but a living Lei Feng .
But when we saw that the black boy who was almost astray was able to draw with peace of mind on the school bus, the old man who had taken the McCall bus got in touch with the lost relatives...
We have to admit that such hope is needed in a cold society.
It would be great if McCall's life could go on like this forever.
When busy, solicit customers to make money, chat with the elderly at the seaside; in free time, eliminate evil and promote good, and save young people who have gone astray.
However, there are always some accidents that force him to come back out of the arena.
In the first part, in order to save a girl who was forced to sell herself, McCall did not hesitate to destroy the entire gang with one person.
Arterial bleeding, electric drill bits, barbed neck cutting...
The action scenes are handled cleanly, and the tricks are deadly; when killing people, they are cold and simple, and never give the opponent any respite.
In the second part, in order to avenge the former best friend, a mass murder is committed.
This old man with facial paralysis and high IQ pretended to force us to stop.
The story settings of the two films are basically the same, and even the killing tactics at the climax of the film are exactly the same.
The closed store in the first part has become a seaside town blocked by a storm.
McCall continued to disperse the enemy, using panic to slow down their rhythm and combat effectiveness.
Then they were driven into desperation one by one like a ghost, and the town became his hunting ground.
This is a very routine revenge story, a typical personal heroism, when encountering a Buddha and killing a Buddha, it turns a vote of wicked people.
Other cool films of the same type include "Quick Attack", "Quick Chase", "Mint" and so on.
They use violence to control violence and solve their enemies in the same way as the gangsters, but they are deeply loved by movie fans.
The biggest reason why many fans like this kind of movies is because they like the long-lost sceneries and chivalrous flavors .
In "Mint", the heroine encounters an alcoholic father who is not good at supporting the child, and directly teaches him how to be a man with a gun.
In "Quick Hunting", Keanu Reeves wore a black suit, and when he started killing, he was like a hero.
As soon as McCall came out, even if he was just sitting there quietly with a gun, there was a rashness all over his body.
If we change the background to China, the story remains intact, and a swordsman in black with a hat and fluttering clothes immediately appears in front of us.
Even fighting moves one by one can be restored...
Since ancient times, rivers and lakes and temples are two opposing environments. Many knights are forced to walk the rivers and lakes because they are disappointed with the authorities.
The most famous story in China is none other than the 108 generals in "Water Margin" -Lu Zhishen fisted Zhen Guanxi, Wu Song drunk beating Jiang Menshen ...
And in "The Eunuch", we can also see the disappointment of the people in the government.
In the first part, the police not only blatantly levied protection fees for merchants, some of them even became undercover gangsters, using their powers for personal gain.
In the second part, the running dogs of these evil forces were once members of the country who served for the country. After being used by the authorities, they abandoned them without mercy and could only sacrifice their lives for the evil forces.
When the government cannot punish the wicked, the knights will appear.
Whether it is Jin Yong's martial arts scenes or Hollywood superheroes, people all over the world have a knight dream .
They rely on their own strength to help the humiliated people, and they will roar when the road is unfair.
They are open-minded, loyal and courageous, no matter whether they are bold or mature or introverted, they have a common characteristic- hatred as hatred .
The world is not perfect. Most of the time people do bad things and the wicked are not punished.
But don't worry, where there are people, there are quacks, and where there are quacks, there must be heroes .
The backstage replied "The avenger", there is a source of juice~
