A little help please - re. the fat kid
OK, so I just watched this movie at the cinema to kill some time but unfortunately there were no subtitles so I couldn't understand the language. Fortunately, this film was very simple to follow and I probably would have left the cinema if it turned out to be a intense drama but the action sequences kept me hooked!
Anyhow - the one scene that I couldn't understand at all was the one with the fat kid. It seemed that he entered with someone (on my understanding his father) and then the father bailed, leaving the poor kid alone to go and make a telephone call. Then the gangsters, very kindly, released him but he got shot down anyway! So my question: Who were the kid and the father, why did the dad just leave him there? Also, why did the poor kid get shot? He seemed really innocent to me.
Finally, If there is a better scene in any other film than the guy doing a forward roll across the corridor amidst all the gunfire, I would love to see it!
