The Siege

By Jovanny 2022-03-20 09:02:01

A film full of contradictions

Terrorists detonated a bomb in the underground garage of the World Trade Center in the United States. How to protect the safety of residents has become a problem for the US government. The story begins with an FBI special officer, a CIA investigator, and a U.S. Army general all swearing at the same time: "Support and defend the Constitution."

Contradiction 1: cia, fbi, the contradiction of the military
  cia, Alice Crawford (Annette Benin) is an agent of the CIA, concerned about...

American ridiculous

Teach others and spread the so-called freedom, some white women who symbolize the United States are only committed;
the discriminated blacks save the United States; the
notorious FBI becomes the vanguard of justice;
the army that defends the people becomes the executioner.

Americans always like to shoot themselves in the foot, and again and again. In fact, Americans are the most afraid of people. They want to protect their own safety and freedom, but they often ignore...

May world peace

The plot is a bit procrastinated, but it bluntly makes people see that time has gone back 20 years. When the US anti-terrorism has not been upgraded to the present height, the government, military, FBI, CIA, homeland security and other side benefits and rights tactics Game. Before 9/11, there was considerable resistance to counter-terrorism in the United States. It would violate the civil rights of freedom and democracy too much, and the lack also contributed to the arrogance of terrorism....

Watching 20 years later is still a good movie

Surprised! A good film is like a good research. It not only raises questions and is thought-provoking, but it also stands the test of time.

Standing at the time point of January 11, 2021, look back at this movie released in 1998. The increasingly turbulent world situation in the past 23 years has made the thought-provoking questions in the story even more profound.

For example, the issue of terrorist attacks in the United States and the...

Quite forward-looking

The film was shot in 1998, but several points mentioned in the play are very consistent with the conclusions of the 9/11 report:
1. Terrorists use student visas as the main means of entry.
2. CIA/FBI/USARMY fight each other, and there are problems with cooperation
3. Terrorists They were all trained by the Americans themselves, or more or less related.
But there is one thing. Before 9/11, the FBI’s anti-terrorism enthusiasm was not as high as described in the film. In fact,...

Three good actors and a not-so-bad script, but a mediocre film. From an overall perspective, it may be a very real counter-terrorism, but the details are unrealistic. Denzel's character speaks righteous words and condemns the general's tyranny, as if he holds the truth of democracy, but think of 911 and how ridiculous it is. . Right and wrong are not that simple, especially when it comes to counter-terrorism. If you want to reason but cannot, the story will be...
