      The macho movies that have influenced many films

      At the beginning, "Mission Impossible 2" paid tribute.

      The scene of falling from a cliff to a tree and landing, Stallone paid tribute to his "First Blood" Shadow effect).

      Tsui Hark’s "Take the Tiger Mountain out of the sky" is also a tribute to this, right?

      Although the plane grabbing money seems to have a bug, the plot of the whole film is tight, one crisis after another, which makes people want to stop. The last time I watched "Gravity" also had this effect.

      Freehand rock climbing

      What impressed me most in this film was the shot of Stallone's free-hand rock climbing in the film, which is more realistic than "Mission Impossible 2". It is because I have read the introduction about this extreme sport, I am very excited, and I remember it deeply. It can be said that this film attracts me for this reason. Since the film was produced in 1993, the shooting of special effects is far below the level of "Vertical Limit". And because the film itself is an action movie...

      Stallone is a member of the rescue team. The female member is his girlfriend. The pilot is an old man. The male team member brings a girlfriend who has no rock climbing experience. Rock climbing encounters a dangerous helicopter to rescue Stallone. Shouting that Stallone climbed up the rope to rescue one of the women’s hands, but the girl still fell. Stallone blamed himself for leaving and the other three remained in the ambulance team.

      One day Stallone came back to...

      Extreme sport

      What is the limit is to challenge life. Bare-handed climbing is the most challenging sport. It cannot be done without excellent physical fitness and coordination.
      The rock climbing in the film is also frightening and makes people unable to adapt. I really want to try it. Stallone's muscles have also been fully developed, although not as the main fight like Rimboli, but the visual impact is still very fierce.
      The plot in the film is also very good, one link after another, I...

      It is said to be one of the few films that Stallone has not been scolded for

      After watching Hong Kong police movies with my mother for n nights, in order to ensure that she would not lose interest tonight, she decided to choose this straightforward action movie "The Great Wind".

      I am ashamed to say, "The Wind of the Mountain" seems to be the first Stallone movie I have ever seen with a clear memory. Yes, I have never watched "First Blood", "Rocky", nor "The Expendables". When I was a child, I seemed to have seen a "Kissing Dragon", but I have...

      Brother Shi is the legendary Xiaoqiang. The biggest bug in the film is that the old rescuer obviously rescued a camper who escaped from the tiger's mouth, but it didn't take long before he ran to save the bad guys without knowing it, but he...

    Movie plot

    All action scenes in this film are rare and extremely thrilling.
    The desperate contest at an altitude of 4000 meters will bring you absolute shock and a full 120 minutes of heartbeat. What dared to fight Stallone this time was a mountain that only 12 people in the world could climb, and a group of desperadoes on the top of the mountain. The dizzying height, wild and dynamic rock climbing, demonstrated strength and skill higher than that...

    Background creation

    The film is set in Colorado, but shot in Italy. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency will not allow the fear of being filmed in the United States that can be destroyed by the left crew. Italy is the choice because it is a spectacular mountain range similar to the Colorado Rockies. The production staff paid a very large deposit for cleaning up costs.
    During the filming, an electrical storm struck and knocked down 5 crew members....

    In the end, there was no award, but for a pure action film, it can be said to be infinite. When shooting this film, the actors are also very hard. They have to withstand the test of cold and mountain pressure, as well as physical fitness and endurance. For this, Stallone trained for several months. Most of the...
