The devil possesses heaven and does not wait

Just looking at the title and poster, I thought it was a Hollywood commercial horror film, especially the poster, which clearly imitated the poster design of "The Devil Wearing Prada", perhaps it was also contaminated with the habit of "Devil", perhaps The film party hopes that this film can "inherit" the former's word-of-mouth and box office win-win results.

However, the film does look like an out-and-out commercial film from the packaging to the story itself. The glamorous and different brothers with different personalities are also so tight that they need to take risks to change the dilemma of purgatory life, so I came up with the "brilliant trick" to rob my own jewelry store, because I know it best, and because there will be insurance compensation. So the story is based on the point in time of the "robbing" as the reference coordinate, retrospectively before and after the quotation. With the unfolding of tracing and quotation, the character's temperament, behavioral motives, and the contradictory inducements within the family that led to the tragic way began to slowly appear.

If you don’t read the introduction, I’m afraid it’s hard to imagine that this trendy movie with a narrative approach was produced by 83-year-old Sidney Rummett ("Twelve Angry Men", "Hot Day Afternoon"). However, around the "robbing incident", the fear of moral "devil's face" and the uncompromising and unrelenting end of the film shock all deeply felt the master's skill.

This is an era of rapid decline of masters. It is really rare to see new works by senior directors such as Anjay Wajda and Sidney Rumet. His personal style and critical ability in selection.

I'm not, I'm not the sum of my parts. All my parts don't add up to one... to one me, I guess.
