This movie is too long and it’s not easy to watch it at a time. If you watch it a few times, you will find it is really good.
I was immersed in who was the murderer at first, and then I didn't care who the murderer was. He has become less important in this film. The emotional relationship between the three protagonists in the story became the main reason that attracted me. I have always thought that David is a poor person. The misfortune of his childhood made him lose the most important thing in life-youth. After he got married, he was more cowardly than ordinary people. There is no Jimmy's courage and Sean's ability, nothing. Friends, don't have any special hobbies. He seemed so out of place at the Jimmy's party, as if in another world. Sean’s words at the end of the film: "In reality, we are still children in the cellar, imagining what would happen if we escape." Let me understand that the really poor people are those of us. The childhood experience made David’s The mind has long since escaped from this impetuous, material society, yet we are still trapped in it. I think if there is no such murder, David should be the happiest of the three. There is no Jimmy’s troubles to draw a line with the evil forces, and Sean’s tragic loss of his family due to work. He picks up his son every day. Mike goes to school, asks Mike to play baseball, chats with his wife, and goes to the bar to drink and drink at night. It's a relaxed and happy life. Isn't this the happiest life! ! ! But he left this world prematurely, and it was also destined for his misfortune, without friends, and not being able to communicate well with others. His life is contradictory. The experience of childhood became his lingering pain, and the simple life after he got married made him happy. It takes great courage to escape this impetuous world and simple cellar.
