Thank you for joining us once again in the review of this movie where the limits of passion and deceit are stretched. How much can a cop sworn to uphold justice and truth take before he breaks? Enjoy reading our review of life lessons from this action packed hit.
- Tormenting Brothers
Detective J.D. Byrne (Ben Affleck) is irritated by the insinuating questions coming from his brother, FBI Agent Del Byrne (Scott Adkins) over the death of Captain Jackie Velez (Lina Esco). The two brothers get into a fight and Detective J.D. Byrne storms off to tell Lieutenant Dumars (Matt Damon) that his brother is still an asshole.
Do you have an overbearing sibling in your life? One who torments you, oppresses you, and sometimes makes you seem inadequate. Bonded tormentors sometimes manifest as brothers or siblings to make your life miserable. In reality, there are entire societies, villages, cities, and even countries whose enmity are deeply rooted in the problem of seeded enmity between brothers. There are also various legends, myths, and stories about brothers who quarrel over their rights and one gets cheated out of his rights by another. For example, the story of Cain and Abel, and Isaac and Esau in the Christian religion. There are many similar tales about the cheating brother and the foolish but powerful one who falls for his brothers trickery in various cultures around the world including India, Edo people of Nigeria, Chinese, and Japanese folklores.
Bonded enemity between brothers that manifest as a lifetime of torment is usually based on one brother being foolish and blinded to the wrongness of his brothers wickedness. Mothers and Fathers should keep an eye out for the bonded tormentors that manifest as family members and help protect the rights of their victims.
Family is the bed rock of society, therefore, correcting the balance within families, would ultimately correct the balance in society. Take note of bonded moments like for example; a sibling eating all the sweet meat, and bonding his brother to never get sweetness in life, or a sibling who deliberately acts in ways to keep his brother deprived like for example; always choosing what to watch on TV, or taking too much time on a video game. Such bond bullies manifest in different forms throughout the life of their victims, cheating them out of their rights, and making them subservient in society. Such bonded bullies can even manipulate their siblings to make the wrong choices and make it look like they are the only ones who can choose right. Do not be bothered by their demonic tantrums as they pretend that its their right to cheat, because if they cannot bear to not cheat, then they should return to the fires of reincarnation till they are free of the evil feelings that usually bring our world to an untimely end.
- Enslaving Hope
Tension mounts when the staggering loot is uncovered. Heated arguments and fights ensue, phones are seized and gun battles occur.
Why does money have such a hold on people? Well, here is what we think; On one hand, people do not live their best life based on what they truly enjoy. They hope for enjoyment based on what they see on media and live their lives trying to please other people. Another reason is that most people are mentally enslaved to hope that's tied to a proverbial golden fleece. Hence, they see money as the opportunity to live out that hope. The search for money therefore becomes an overbearing anxiety that leads to unpredictable outcomes when such opportunities arises. They feel that life would begin when they finally make that big hit.
Well, you can have ten Lamborghinis and not have as much fun driving as someone who owns a Toyota SUV. Its not about how much money comes your way. Don't get it twisted, the lure to money as a cure to a good life, is just an enslavement method that keeps you stressed. Have a good time with yourself because money is only a means to an end, not an end in itself. Its what you spend it on that matters, not how much of it you possess.
There's only so much you can achieve or enjoy in one lifetime. We also mentioned this in our review of the Golden Kamuy. Don't be like the demonic who out of greed, bond themselves to inherit their ill-gotten acquired wealth, such entities only worsen the spoiling of our human programming and it often leads to special problems in the future. The kind of problems that they like enslaving people to pacts to help them bear, which in turn contributes to more worsening.
- Victimized Rightness
Detective Lolo Salazar laments that she takes home $80,000 annually amidst all the risks, insults, and inconveniences, yet some illegal outfit has millions stashed away.
Well, our world is bonded to wrongness, hence the wrong things prosper while the right things suffer. Isn't it a priority for everyone to right the wrongs and reclaim a positive world? Especially, now that you've been educated by our eBooks and reviews on how the world always ends because of our wrongness, while the universe we are supposed to inhabit expands. What if there is a time limit on how many times our world can be permitted to re-start? What if the memory carriers who remember clues to our true programming are becoming extinct to never reveal their clues? Would that cash stash in the bank mean anything when the waters of the ocean starts to rise?
- The Fool's Ploy
Lieutenant Dumars and Detective Byrne act foolish, rash, and irrational as they attempt to lure the truly corrupt cops out to join in the heist. This is what we term 'the fool's ploy'. In reality, the fool's ploy can have positive and negative impacts or benefits. For example, there are bonded tormentors who manifest as brothers or friends and encourage or influence you to indulge in foolish acts like getting drunk or indulging in some outlandish risky affair that almost gets you killed or in trouble, but you all usually laugh it off, like it isn't your life that's wasting away on irrelevancies. Such friends usually pretend to be foolish just to keep you foolish. They could take you to a bar, get drunk on your bill, talk secretly to a girl you would have fancied and meet her up later secretly, while they send you to vomit and sleep in your vomit. Yet, you'd laugh it off in the morning as a fun activity. Bless your soul, we pity you for being so loving and ignorant.
In another perspective, the fool's ploy can have positive benefits, especially in our world that's bonded to wrongness, which means foolishness can actually be true wisdom. There are moments where playing the role of a fool can help you gain something much better than what you couldn't claim. For example, there are young adults who after being riled up by gang violence and the pursuit of happiness commit unpardonable crimes and get a life sentence. In such moments, being a fool that doesn't mind being cheated could keep the youth focused on what really matters and ultimately prospering in life.
Don't let your ego win, be a fool sometimes. Remember our world is bonded to wrongness, therefore fools are wise and the wise are fools. Little wonder, the Christian bible claims that "the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God" (1 Corinthians 3:19).
