The sword is not old, and it is fun and dripping

Picking and picking from the meagerly few domestically released films, I stepped into the cinema again this year and enjoyed this new film by Tony Scott, and I really found the feeling of a classic action movie in the 1990s. It takes a lot of skill to be able to photograph a high-speed dynamic object like a train. I think it's really cool whether it's editing or filming, whether it's expressing the sense of speed of the train, or nervous quick cuts. There are no gorgeous rhetoric, some are just plain words, with a sense of life. The old and new duo of Denzel Washington and Chris Pine has a lot of flavor. The performance is impeccable. Great and worthwhile viewing experience.

Will: What's the fastest you've taken a single engine like this?
Frank: Unattached?
Will: Yeah.
Frank: 50, 55. Of course, I was going forward.

Frank: So, what was the long story you didn't want to make long?
Will: I come home from work two weeks ago, and she's, uh... she's texting on the phone. I ask her who it is, she says "Nobody." So I said "Let me see the phone." She says no. This goes on, I dunno, five or six times.
Frank: Wait, wait. You're losing me. She's texting...
Will: There's this guy we both went to school with. He's a cop, he's a PA state trooper. And he's always had a thing for Darcy. Going way back.
Connie: [calling over the radio] 1206, where are you?
Frank: 1206 here, Connie. We're just passing milepost 57.
Connie: You're about a mile and a half behind.
Frank: How far out of Arklow is 777?
Connie: Seven and a half miles. It picked up speed. You better step on it.
Frank: I'm stepping on it, in it, around it, and through it, Connie. Thank you. Over.
Will: She's texting on the phone, I keep on asking for it, she keeps on saying no. And, um... she starts to walk away, and I grab for it.
Frank: You hit her?
Will: No, no, no. I mean, I scared her, but I didn't- I didn't hit her. Anyway, I drive to this guy's house and tell him we need to talk, let's take a ride. He jumps in my truck, and starts in with "You've got it all wrong, we're just friends." And then he stops once he sees... the gun I got on the dash.
Frank: Oh!
Will: I look him in the eye and I say "She's my wife. You find a new friend."
Frank: You pulled a gun on a cop?
Connie: [calling on the radio again] Frank? Frank, 777 just passed milepost 61.
Frank: Thank you, Connie.
Will: But you wanna hear the kicker?
Frank: Yes, I do.
Will: It wasn't even him that was texting her. It was my sister-in-law.
