Theron was assassinated by the KGB as soon as he arrived in Berlin. After the search for the list failed, Theron's main task was to escort the East German agent, the live list, out of the country with Yimei. But the escort mission was leaked, the live list was killed, plus the leaks of the previous missions, and the death of the French girl, all the evidence pointed to Yimei, and Saron had reason to believe that Yimei was the traitor Saatchi, who killed him. After the death of a beauty, the list was taken away. However, in the end, the plot was reversed, and Saron's true identity was revealed, and his real role was cia, which was also confirmed by the two lies he told the six superiors.
The story is more complicated and involves wrestling between five parties. The clues found in each mission of Saron and the mission leaks were chased and killed to promote the development of the story. Although the plot of the whole movie is still smooth, the beginning is too much, and some details are not explained clearly, such as Watch repair brother, such as the business card that the KGB gave her when Saron first arrived in Berlin, the bar to strike up a conversation, etc. Of course, compared with the small-scale action movies such as rapid special attack, the arctic city puts the story in the history before and after the fall of the Berlin Wall Under the big background, the story pattern is undoubtedly elevated, and the complex setting of the protagonist's identity has indeed greatly enriched the story elements, and increased the difficulty of storytelling and clues. Simple revenge stories are comparable. However, as an action movie, the wonderful action design and the high degree of fit between the action and the protagonist have greatly improved the viewing experience of the movie, and the shortcomings of the story are not concealed.
As a director transformed from an action actor, Dawei Richie, with innovative action design and stylized use of light and shadow, has opened up a new way in the B-level film sequence and established a benchmark with personal characteristics. This film continues the director's style in the rapid attack, and further integrates neon light and shadow, soundtrack, story, and characters. The visual and auditory effects echo the film's name, the coldest city, and the atmosphere of the Cold War. The tone of the film is compelling. The movie chose Saron as the main heroine, which greatly improved the quality of the movie. For example, the roles of Saron and the French girl were very sudden, but Saron was strong enough to bend the aura of a straight girl, which resolved all embarrassment and Uncomfortable, and the ten-minute one-shot action scene, Theron hit from the beginning to the end, punched to the meat, fierce and fierce, from the beautiful flower to being beaten into a pig's head, showing the super high quality of the actor And a lot of prep for the movie, it's really impressive. Saron's Oscar-level acting skills and powerful aura also well controlled the flower of this glamorous, ruthless, meticulous, deep, and extraordinary agent. In a sense, the whole movie is actually Theron Solo show, everything else becomes a foil.
