In general, "Edge of Darkness" is a movie that can't be said to be excellent, but it can't be called a terrible movie. The overall feeling is quite normal and the plot is very patterned. The police reunite with the daughter and don't want her daughter to be killed in a murder that seems to be aimed at his father. , Revenge Father tried to find out the real culprit, but discovered the truth that is inconsistent with the current low-carbon society, where environmental protection is paramount. Americans always distrust the government very much. What they believe in is not to thank the country first for the honor, but to blame the country first when something goes wrong. Therefore, the conspiracy theory against the government, especially the collusion between the government and the big consortium, is always tumultuous. Related film and television works are also continuous, and the corresponding plot mode has been streamlined. Therefore, among them, the character and the performance of actors often play a vital role. From this perspective, it is no exaggeration to say that Mel Gibson supported the film. From the moment he appeared, he showed a strong personal style and charm, his expression still looked cold, and his approach was still tough under the flames of revenge. The image of the tough guy did not dissipate with the passage of time, but combined with the plot at the same time, let him bring a trace of vicissitudes and tenderness. Also fascinating is the investigator played by Ray Winston. It can be said that he walks in black and white. Although he is hired by wicked people, he has his own principles. When he speaks, his voice with magnetism and life precipitation is already very good. Fascinating, not to mention the seeming coldness of his terminally ill, but he is full of tension in the burst of redemption, making this character and Mel Gibson's role reflect and echo each other with sympathy, which strongly contrasts a trace of the film. Tragic effect.
Although the charm of the veteran is of paramount importance, if the script is too bad, it will only make the savage arrogant. If you don't believe it, just look at the recent performance of Al Pacino. As a miniseries remake, the script of this film is stable and tested, which has given the actors a platform for performance, not to mention its entry point is more realistic today. Small people, media, and official business forces often form a balanced triangular relationship in American conspiracy theory movies. The small people seem to be weak, but for various reasons, unstoppable internal power erupts. It is the strong government and business forces that draw out this power. Similar to Mel Gibson, who was originally a conscientious police detective; similar to his daughter, who was originally a clerk with a sense of charity. However, in order to reveal the truth, a weak woman can also burst out enough power to make the face of a strong group be completely lost, and the extinction of the evil business is a side manifestation of her power. In American movies, it has been proved N times that to kill anyone, do not kill the relatives of the police. As a force within the system, their outbreaks often have the power of destruction, and Mel Gibson is an excellent performance of this power. . The strength of a small person is often reflected in courage. However, as a confrontation with the government and business, he often needs the role of the media as an amplifier. Sometimes, in similar TV dramas in the United States, the small person is simply a member of the media. The revenge father can die with the wicked without fear of death. However, to truly realize the value of such sacrifices still requires the media to speak up. Therefore, this type of film also shows the strong trust and expectation of the American people in the media, just like the film Mel. • Gibson's final request is also left to the media. Officials and businessmen are naturally in a strong position. Under the background of the nuclear industry, what we see is the collusion and corruption between business and government, and it is this strong position that often makes them forget about themselves, thinking that they are the omnipotent God, and constantly angering the old man with revenge. Individuals like Dad activate the media of the uncrowned king. It is this triangular relationship that keeps society in an overall stable state. After a bloody storm, it eventually returns to the track of order.
"Edge of Darkness" is a tasteful movie, because the outstanding performance of a veteran like Mel Gibson makes the whole story thick and flavorful; it is also a passionate movie, and the story of a small person overpowering evil is always a story. Watching to relieve the qi, especially when this is an extremely nihilistic possibility in reality. Therefore, although Mel Gibson is old, his aura is still charming, showing the light of his acting skills in the edge of darkness.
