      Old style, sloppy plot, rough production

      Director John Frankheimer was mainly active in the 1960s. Although the film "Ronin" was released in 1998, it has an old style, rough action scenes, heavy editing and sloppy plot.

      The filming style of the entire film is similar to the "French Drug Network" in 1971, which is more classic or more earthy, depending on how you look at it. But the action scenes are really too rough, there are very few fights, basically big fists swipe the face or tear the mouth, the gunfight is the pistol...

      Ronin's Project Management

      Watching a movie is watching other people's project cases. If it's just a collection without a summary for yourself, it's a waste of time.
      The gimmick of spy war movies is that they can reveal a little bit of professional clues for people to learn.
      In the future, in order to improve the efficiency of watching movies, I will make an evaluation tool to analyze the professionalism of project managers in movies.

      One of the reasons project managers are crucial in a team of...

      The Last Noble Knight (2006.5)

      Another film that has been famous for too long but I haven't seen it. I found it by accident in eMule, Robert De Niro + Jean Reno - for these two old guys, who can resist " What about Ronin? The 120-minute film can be summed up in almost one word - quiet. There is not a mentally retarded line in the whole film, and almost all communication is completed in the eye movements of De Niro and Reno. No high-tech, no fake cool like in American films today, no gimmicky action and massive gunfights....

      "The Ronin"

      This is a movie starring De Niro in 1998. Compared with the general action movies, there are some big backgrounds and twists and turns here, and some big-name stars have joined, such as Jean Reno, Natasha McElhone, Sean Bean and so on. more engaging.

      Superb level of screenwriting, you can get quite a lot of creativity from it

      Robert De Niro!
      Jean Reno!

      These two people are big enough, and the films of these two big names are not bad.

      The movie starts with a kind of music that makes you nervous, and a bar feels like a possible crime from a voyeuristic perspective.
      It's emotional, and you have to watch this movie from the start.

      What follows is a series of doubts, not only those of us who watch the movie, but also those who are in it.
      In the film, there are people from the...

      In the 1998 film, there are not so many modern stunts to show the skills and atmosphere. It relies on solid shooting and excellent acting skills of the actors. The gunfight and speed are well-rounded, and Roberta De Niro and Jean Reno are two charming tough guys. The show on the same stage is the biggest highlight, and the Duke of the North in "Game of Thrones" also showed a small...
