Threads | Denzel Washington Edition Creed

"Creed" did not meet expectations, Denzel Washington was still relatively unconvinced, and decided to play one himself.

So, in a detective-based movie, Denzel Washington is entangled in the past and the future.

How did the "magic detective" with the highest detection rate get reduced to "wearing a military uniform"?

This question, which has been entangled in the beginning of the story, has a hot temper and eclectic manners, all of which may lead to the "sinking" of Denzel Washington.

By accident, Denzel Washington was able to return to the place where he worked. When he was exhausted between the balls of various departments, he also found that the environment of the year had "changed."

The newly appointed detective was a little "disdainful" of this out-of-date detective, but Denzel Washington, who had already been indifferent, didn't care at all.

Find an opportunity to catch up with old friends, pass the time sinking in "the mountains and the seas", and do what you should do well, this is Denzel Washington's greatest wish.

However, I never thought that the serial murder case that has been entangled for a long time continues.

In front of the case, the old and new "detectives" decided to put aside their prejudices and join hands to solve the case.

The case quickly identified the biggest suspect.

However, the story has only just begun.

With the development of the story, this story about "solving a case" gradually began to go wrong. It's no wonder that Denzel Washington was never content to play a "bland" story.

The truth of the case gradually becomes less important.

Everyone is suffering from mental torture in this case.

First, as the first suspect in this case, he committed suicide after being cross-examined. Why commit suicide? It is briefly mentioned in the story, but it can be seen that the suspect has probably been entangled for too long before being cross-examined, and the cross-examination has only become the last straw that crushes him.

At the end of the story, there is no clear account of the truth of the case. But both the old and new detectives exposed their own unbearableness in front of the case.

One was for status and the other was for himself, but neither could be redeemed in the process of solving the case.

The secret to why Denzel Washington was reduced to a "military uniform" also finally emerged. Although Denzel Washington expressed great sympathy for this secret, from the facts itself, foreigners also had a disgusting "reversal of black and white".

At the end of the story, there is no imagined "perfect".

There is nothing perfect in this world. From this point of view, the ending of the story is so real.

No Angels. Don't expect angelic redemption, and don't expect to be someone else's angel.

In the story, Denzel Washington has been emphasizing that "details make or break", but in the end "details" do not bring perfection.

In our daily life, we probably don’t have many opportunities to face such a “life-and-death choice”. This “detail” may be converted into a “trivial matter”. Doing every "little thing" well, and facing the "imperfections" in life calmly, maybe this is also a kind of life creed.

    No matter how diligent or conscientious you are, how experienced or intelligent you are, it is often the little things that determine success or failure. A little thing or a little bit of bad luck, and it will come to an end. This is even more the case for the police who are handling the case. They are struggling to find clues, but they still find nothing, which is frustrating. In the end, they put their whole life into it. Alternative cop film, slow-paced and depressing, depicting police failure. Watching this movie requires some patience.

    The actors are still very good, and the b-dressing is in place! ! But the story is really old-fashioned, and the whole exudes an old-fashioned atmosphere. It's not that it's bad, but this film should still be seen in the cinema, and it's only suitable for watching Netflix at home.
