This movie handles well in suspense design and rhythm, and the game is also intertwined, and finally reverses with the revenge of violence against violence, which is unexpected and wonderful, and sets off the greatness of maternal love.
There are two murders before and after the story, involving two mothers who will do whatever it takes to save their daughters, and they race against time and darkness for a limited seven days. In contrast, the father who thinks he can reach heaven in his hands is inferior in human nature.
It is precisely because of his existence that the police are unprofessional and dedicated, and they are simply a mess, which is also a common problem of many Korean crime films. No wonder the female lawyer Kim Yunzhen sighed that evidence can be forged, do not believe the police investigation, naked sarcasm.
One of the mothers, Kim Yoon-jin, a female lawyer, has never lost any lawsuits, and it was precisely because of this that the kidnappers kidnapped her daughter Eun-young and demanded that she win an impossible case within the specified time, otherwise she would tear up the ticket.
Get away with it for the bad guys? Or to clear the grievances of good people? This is a relatively clever design of the movie, and few people should be able to guess this seemingly contradictory motive and purpose, but it is actually for revenge.
Revenge for whom? Naturally, it was Kim Yunzhen who took over the deceased Zhang Huizhen in the case.
She was a graduate student who was found missing from her home with blood stained in the house, and the disfigured body was found by the police half a month later. The forensic doctor determined that the case was a mixture of impulsive and premeditated, and that the murder was caused by impulsiveness, but there was a special person to deal with the body in the aftermath. The only clue found by the forensic doctor was that Zhang Huizhen had a trace amount of hallucinogen in her mouth.
Two days later, the suspect Zheng Tiezhen was arrested with a history of rape and violence, his fingerprints and footprints were in the victim's home, and the victim's wallet appeared in his home. All indications indicate that he is the murderer, who was sentenced to death in the first instance and is currently at the second instance stage.
Whether Zheng Tiezhen is guilty or not, for the sake of his daughter, Jin Yunzhen has to bite the bullet and must prove his innocence. Her first wave of analysis deduced that Zheng Tiezhen had to burglary for his mother's medical expenses. He found the dead Zhang Huizhen, and fled with his wallet in shock, so he left evidence.
With the help of police classmates, Kim Yunzhen soon had a new clue, she believed that the logic of the deceased's behavior before his death should be to talk to the murderer on the sofa before being killed, which means that the deceased and the murderer may know, which is the first point ignored by the police.
Later, they found the deceased's ex-boyfriend and learned that the deceased had been with Jiang Zhiyuan, an international student with a nose ring, and that the deceased's computer had a picture of him, which was the second point that the police ignored. The deceased's car disappeared after the crime, and for a month, the police had no clues, which is the third point that was ignored.
More and more doubts have been found, is Zheng Tiezhen really wronged?
The plot starts from Kim Yun-jin coming to Jiang Zhiyuan, he was put into drug rehabilitation a week before the death of the deceased, and when he met Kim Yun-jin, he also said "You can never win them, they do everything faster than you", it is obvious that he knows who the murderer is. But he was all hospitalized, how did he know?
If there is no bug in this logic, then there must be a problem with Jiang Zhiyuan's admission time. Soon the hospital discharged him, which would have been really hell if there had been no secret operation. It turned out that Jiang Zhiyuan's father was the famous prosecutor Jiang Xiangwan, and this time he participated in the election, naturally there could not be any scandal, so he brought people to Kim Yunzhen's house in the middle of the night to destroy the evidence.
There is also a small episode, Zheng Tiezhen's wife confessed that he knew the deceased and often sold drugs to Jiang Zhiyuan and the deceased. Thanks to a new clue from a police friend, it was confirmed that if Zheng Tiezhen's mother and him died, the 300 million yuan of the huge insurance policy would go to his wife, which was a wave of derailment.
Seeing that the case was hopeless, Boss Black hit the point with a desperate blow and released Jiang Xiangwan's recording. This can only show that Jiang obstructed justice, and cannot prove that Zheng Tiezhen is not the murderer. As I said just now, Zheng Tiezhen is a drug dealer, and based on this alone, the court can even acquit him, which is somewhat irresponsible to society.
In court, the lawyers on both sides have been arguing about the core issue, and the murder weapon that killed the person has not been found. This had to continue to angrily criticize the incompetence of the police, the murder weapon was inserted into the sculpture, and the hand was exposed, which was not found when investigating the scene? So why was the mother of the deceased found?
The point is how the deceased's mother confirmed from the beginning that the murderer was Zheng Tiezhen and not Jiang Zhiyuan? Personal guess is that the probability is gambling, through Kim Yunzhen's ability, find the real murderer during the trial of the case. If Zheng Tiezhen is the murderer, then it doesn't matter if Kim Yunzhen loses, if he wins, he can achieve his goal. If Zheng Tiezhen is not the murderer, Kim Yunzhen will try his best to find the real murderer in order to win.
It's just that this ending is quite difficult to say, the motive of the deceased's mother to let Jin Yunzhen win, is to prevent Zheng Tiezhen from dying so painfully, and she went around in such a big circle... Avenge for his daughter is really a desperate struggle, then the kidnappers are self-evident.
This reminds me of a news I saw a few days ago, the 1981 German court shooting case, about a mother who fired eight shots at her daughter's murderer during the second trial of the court, and six shots were successfully killed. So don't underestimate the greatness of motherly love, it can be unrestricted by rules, and it can be reckless.
