The Storyline of Sweet Girl
Mourning
The movie tells the story of Ray cooper. His Family got wrecked into pieces with the death of his mother, Amanda Cooper. The Mother had suffered from cancer and due to the corruption in the pharmaceutical company. Her treatment got delayed as the drug that could have saved her life got its production extended to several months, which cost her life.
Revenge is poison
In the anguish of losing her wife, Ray Cooper calls up the CEO Simon Keeley about the consequences of his deed and call ending with a death threat over national television. With a vengeance in his heart, Ray vows to take the law into his own hands, fighting big names and companies for the sake of justice.
But as they say, revenge is like a two-headed rat viper; while you watch your enemy go down, you too are being poisoned yourself. On the platform, both Ray and Rachel lying almost dead, what brought them to this stage is going to be a determining factor for the rest of the course of the movie as the life of all characters turns around after this point of time.
The lead
Ray sought answers. He finally found a lead given to him by a journalist, Martin Bennett. Although he went to investigate the activity of the Bioprime scandal ( The pharmaceutical company) But before they could have got any information in their hand, the journalist got killed by Santos and Ray, and Rachel was left on the track to die.
Rachel seemed to Bring Balance
Rachel provides two sides to the plot as she is concerned about his father going to extremes on this path of revenge, but she also does feel the same amount of anguish and is filled with despair about all that happened to her once happy family.
The Main Culprit
As they got the lead from Keeley about the main man behind all the felonies, it came out to be Bioprime Chairman Vinod Shah.
The twist
While hunting his target, Ray becomes a criminal with his hand drenched in blood and the FBI behind him, what follows afterwards is something that shook the audience. It was the turning point of the movie as we get to know that Ray is actually Rachael. Ray died that day on the platform, and ritual suffering from PTSD, and dissociative identity disorder was actually behind all that was happening.
The Meaning
I guess we all will agree that Monsters are projections of the society of all that's wicked in its core. The action-adventure and occasional heartbreaking moments in between the scenes are what keeps the audience glued to their chair for 1 hr 50 mins of its running time.
