This approach is not new, at least it was played in Hitchcock's 1958 "North by Northwest". But after decades, the audience is not too tired of this kind of stories of little people who have become heroes by accident. Every time they come out, they always take all the bills, like 007 movies, professional secret agents and beautiful Bond girls. The genre story has been filmed for decades, doesn't it win every time at the box office?
Of course, the times are different, and movies of the same channel should also have new meanings. For example, in this "Public Enemy of the State", in addition to the similar thrilling plots, what is impressive is that a conspirator in a key position in a state agency can use satellite positioning system tracking, video surveillance and electronic file search to achieve his sinister goals. At the same time, it can also see the vulnerability and powerlessness of everyone's privacy in the face of powerful state machinery. However, this feeling will not last long. In the end, the movie will eventually let good people get far, and with wisdom and courage to win the seemingly impossible victory, the audience's previous worries and tensions finally turned into a shallow sense of joy.
