Stealing the Line of Fire

At the beginning of the film, the Optimus Prime truck rushed to a courier truck parked on the side of the road, turning the clouds and fog of the people bumping over, sorry to string the scene to the Transformers. The truck immediately ran down a few masked, uniformed, well-equipped and well-trained robbers, and their division of labor was clear and orderly, which made people look addicted. Vigilance, blasting, control of the field, search for target bond documents, roadblocks, killing, evacuation, etc. are all completed in one go, and all the steps are completed within 3 minutes, which is simply a textbook-like modern roadblock robbery video practical teaching. The only thing that was missing was that there was no arrangement for the killing step in the plan, and there was a robber who loved to pretend to be forced to shoot and kill the other party because he was upset that one of the other people was more handsome than him, and the other teammates could only kill everyone, because the crimes were the same. When fleeing to a safe place for several people to eat supper together, the team boss is also the number one villain of this film, Macaulay, knows that the pretend man cannot stay, so he wants to kill people, but because there is a police car passing by and can not be started in time by this guy to run, the team behind the work left a great hidden danger.

Through the introduction of the intermediary, Macaulay came to meet a disabled person who was very clear about the internal facility map and schedule of the bank, this benevolent brother was disabled and ambitious, hoping that through cooperation with Macaulay, after the success of robbing the bank, a part of the money would not be worried about the second half of his life, And Macaulay said that he would do this vote for the second half of his life. The number one positive finally appears, and Inspector Vincent Hanna of the Los Angeles Police Department's Major Crimes Unit takes over the investigation into the Macaulay bond robbery case, Hanna is obsessed with fighting crime, is a super workaholic, and the more difficult it is, the more excited he is to face the more dangerous criminals. Excessive investment in the fight against crime naturally leads to no time to take care of the family, he has been divorced twice, the third marriage is also in turmoil, this is a man, lifting the brick can not hold you, holding you up can not raise you. He approached a well-informed informant to find out what was going on, and it turned out that Macaulay's planning was so meticulous and perfect that he didn't have the slightest clue to get it, which made Hanna even more frustrated and more challenging.

Macaulay and his two brothers took the bonds back to the holders, and what happened. It turned out that the bondholder was a guy who specialized in helping gangsters and drug traffickers launder money, and these bonds were also used for money laundering, and they had already bought full insurance, so the insurance company had paid the cost of the lost bonds in full. Now sell the bond back to him at a discount, and both sides can make another profit, which is really a miraculous operation. However, the bondholders did not appreciate that Macaulay dared to beat him, so they pretended to send someone to trade and actually arranged for the killer to kill Macaulay. How can this little trick kill The extraordinaryly shrewd Macaulay, who has experienced hundreds of battles, the tacit cooperation of several people quickly killed the killer and the person who traded, and then Macaulay called the bondholder and told the other party to be a dead man, which scared the bondholder of the little white face to half death.

Macaulay and his gang took advantage of the night to come to the bank, and after some exquisite operation, they entered the bank, and the blonde brother started the machine to drill through the large thick door of the warehouse. Hanna's gang, who had been following them for a long time, was hiding in the container across the road, monitoring their every move through the tin through high-tech equipment, and as long as they successfully got the money in their hands, they could rush up and grab them. The waiting time was very tense and long, And Macaulay stared out alertly, while Hanna waited expectantly for them to succeed quickly, and just then, a member of the team inside the box made a slight noise, and Hanna immediately mentioned the throat eye, which felt like a cooked duck was about to fly. And Macaulay, who has the strength of the bear, the speed of the leopard, the eagle's eyes and the ear of the wolf, after looking at Hanna through the tin box for a few seconds, immediately alertly told the brothers to quickly withdraw, and Hanna was determined to let them go, because they did not get the money, and even if they were arrested, they could only be sentenced to half a year at most for entering the house, which made no sense.

After consulting with his brothers, McCauley decided to continue to complete the bank robbery, and Hanna also personally tracked McCauley, and as a result, the two raced to the halfway point, and they came to the restaurant to drink coffee, both sides insisted on their own positions and did not give in to each other, both people said that they only did what they were good at, Macaulay was good at crime and enjoyed it, and Hanna was good at catching people like Macaulay, the two people's kind of different ways and did not conspire with each other and could not help but feel sorry for each other, giving the audience a feeling of regret, Why aren't they all together? Off the field are friends, and when you get to the field, you have to fight to the death.

The robbery operation is ready to start at any time, the driver of the team can not come on time because of something, McCauley just saw the restaurant's miscellaneous cook black brother is an acquaintance of his imprisonment, the brother used to be a drag racing expert, the time is pressing McCauley came to him and asked if he wanted to do a big vote together, the brother was depressed after he was released from prison, and could only shrink in the small restaurant as a miscellaneous, subject to ridicule and contempt by others. Without saying a word, he immediately threw off his hat and pushed down the manager and followed Macaulay away. This paragraph actually looks very sad, just like a man who was once ambitious, after the reality of life and the failure of hard work, he was stagnant and swallowed for survival, and suddenly one day he met a noble person and waited for an opportunity, that kind of eager to try to regain the majestic style, which made people feel a thousand emotions. And the black brother finally gave his life in order to get ahead or for the ideal.

The robbery and gunfight are wonderful and intuitive, and everyone can quietly enjoy and feel it. With Hanna's accurate shot, in everyone's regret, The Macaulay team sacrificed the first small partner, Macaulay and the blonde brother successfully escaped the scene, and the technical male blonde brother survived the rescue of the black market doctor, which somewhat made up for the regret in front. But immediately hit again, the driver in the team was sneaked at home by the man who pretended to be forced at the beginning, was seriously injured and dying, and the driver revealed that in order to save his wife, he only told the whereabouts of the team to the man who pretended to be forced, but the other party did not keep his promise, or killed his wife. At the driver's request, Macaulay endured great grief and gave his teammates a painful pain. The blonde brother can drive after a break, he goes home to pick up his wife and children, although his wife is dissatisfied with the situation that he usually gambles money to make ends meet at home, but at the last moment he still reads that the other party loves himself and the child, and tells him to run away quickly, because his home has been controlled and settled by the police. The blonde brother also drove away with grief and successfully escaped, which was the best ending in the team, after all, he stayed in Qingshan without worrying about firewood.

At this time, the middleman had already arranged a safe escape route for Macaulay, but Macaulay still had one thing to accomplish, that is, to kill the man in disguise to avenge his brothers. Seeing this, everyone guessed his ending, and often the last vote is a failed old routine. Sure enough, Hanna, who had given up, heard that Macaulay had appeared in the hospital and rushed to the hospital like a stimulant, and Macaulay had just killed the pretend man with a clever disguise to avenge his brothers. Just as he was finally about to get in the car and leave, he saw Hanna rushing over, and in order not to bother his girlfriend, he ran alone in the direction of the airport tarmac, intending to fight Hanna to the death there. In the end, good triumphed over evil, the police won the criminal, and with the help of the flash of the plane, Hanna hit Macaulay, and McCauley shook hands with Hanna before he died, Hanna grabbed his hand tightly, and his back was full of regret and regret.

The film breaks through the usual pattern of general gangster police films, injects a lot of family drama in the plot, the driver betrays the team for his wife, the blonde brother is injured a little better and immediately comes to pick up his wife and children, Macaulay gives up the best escape time in order not to tire his girlfriend, even Hanna finally understands each other and reconciles with his wife, and the black brother who appears for a short time, playing in the restaurant is depressed, and it is also for his wife to be willing to work in the restaurant, and after careful tasting, he concludes that men are not easy. Women love and cherish the great truth to come. Well, this time the classic gangster movie "Thief Of Fire" will share this with you, we will see you next time.
