      Okay

      Xiao Li was still fat back then, and his face is not as long as it is now (basically, I think his long face has a lot of credit for the movie camera, although he has a long face in the first place), he is cuter than now, look at it now and then look at that time, almost recognize him. Don't come out of him.

      The reason why this movie is okay is that the American blockbuster~, there are a lot of thrills. The good thing is that it is quite catchy, but you have to watch it, don't watch it...

      This is an obvious commercial blockbuster

      Because the teacher asked if it was a literary or commercial film, I watched it more carefully. From the beginning of saving the people in the elevator to the early stages of saving the people in the bus, the traces of commercial films are really more obvious than ink, such as the very grand buildings or landscapes, irrational but very eye-catching special effects, cynical and fearless 's lines.
            Therefore, it is rather boring to watch in the early stage, and it is easy to think that...

      A good movie with a simple plot

      Because of this film, I fell in love with the actor Keanu Reeves. When I first watched it, I vaguely felt that he looked like a Chinese with a beautiful face, but only later did I realize that he really has one-Nth of Chinese blood. Keanu Reeves was really handsome when he was young, and the small flat head and the blue SWAT battle suit are really handsome! Xiaoji's body is also tough, and the savior in "The Matrix" is the opposite and looks a little weak.

      Among them, Sandra Bullock...

      representative genre films

      Recently, Keanu Reeves has been super obsessed with Keanu Reeves, so he turned out this famous work: a police and gangster film of fighting wits and courage. The old beauty made such a classic work in 1994, so how can the film people in the country of porcelain today feel so bad?

      What are the wonderful details of "Life and Death"?

      According to the principle of a drop of blood in the United States, Keanu and Levi’s are not considered white, haha, like us, are standard people of color. A person of color defeated a pure white man, which was probably considered a more avant-garde concept at the time.

      In the last paragraph, the bomb blows up a large plane, and the hero saves the United States and returns safely. In the eyes of some people, this is not a victory. Instead of protecting national property, he chose his...

      Sure enough, it's a classic action movie. The plot is so tense, there are constant conflicts and twists and turns. After several last-minute rescues, after saving everyone and saving the beauty, once it is not enough, it has to be rescued twice. The part where the hero and heroine slipped out of the bus with the arms was really shocking. Keanu Reeves is really handsome, but he has no acting...

      The first time I saw this type of film, I thought it was very good-looking, and it was constantly climaxing. There are many bugs in 20190704, the biggest one is not to directly pay 3 million ransom, and finally blow up a plane. Poor people are crazy, I'm...

    Part of the highway scene in the film was filmed on California Interstate 105 and 110, which were not yet completed. During the inspection of the location, De Bont noticed that a section of the road was missing a large area of ​​road, so he asked the screenwriter Graham Yost Add the plot of the bus flying over the unfinished section. During the actual shooting, the crew used a high-grade high-carrying dedicated lane. In order to allow...

    • Stephens: First time in LA.

      Annie: Oh no, I live here.

      Stephens: No, mine. Oh that's just funny, you heard me wrong. Nah, I'm sight-seeing.

      Annie: Oh, really?

      Stephens: Yeah. I hate to use the word 'tourist,' but it's not like I can hide it...

      Annie: Not really.

      Stephens: [sigh] Did you know it took me three hours to get here from the airport? I got so lost. LA's one big place, but I guess you don't notice, seeing as you live here. I'm such a yokel. There, I said it!

      Annie: Oh jeez. You know what? I got gum on my seat, GUM!
