First of all, I found this movie on an advertisement for taking the subway every day. To be honest, I was attracted by the tight and suspenseful plot in the trailer. At the beginning of the film, 4 time periods are interspersed to show the embarrassment and ups and downs of the protagonist Mike's life. He needs money everywhere. In this case, he was resigned by his boss and faced the heavy pressure of life. Woman's request: Find a witness and kill him, and use his family as threats. This might be a perfect illustration of how a good person can make mistakes. When Mike found this witness, he changed his mind and tried to protect everyone and finally fought against his friend who betrayed him. The whole film has a compact plot and a lot of foreshadowing. I think the author controls the character and the environment he is in very well, so that the audience can feel the crisis at that time. Under the circumstances that no one can believe it, Mike made a own choice. This may be an elaboration of human nature. Everyone on the train has its own experiences and difficulties, but in the end, they stand up to protect the witnesses. After the film, Mike found his own job, and he became a hero worthy of the name.
