As the shooting of disaster films, Lionsgate has always been a leader. Its "Chainsaw" series is an unparalleled classic, and it is good at shooting big scenes with a small budget. example. This movie is very beautiful. It tells about the worst disaster in the history of American oil. The fire on the Deepwater Horizon oil production platform. Some people say that only eleven people died, so such a blockbuster can be made. Niu Cha, but the thing that is not over-interpreted in the film is: BP settled with the US government for US$20.8 billion, which is the largest settlement amount in the history of the US judicial authorities. The price that can be paid for this is 6104 birds, 609 birds Sea turtles, mammals including 100 dolphins all died or even became extinct. . . In the film, when the platform was out of control, hundreds of thousands of tons of oil rose into the sky, accompanied by hell-like fire, the desperate seagull covered in oil was the biggest visual impact to us. It is the despair, helplessness and misery that come from the insolent disaster of these animals. There are not many sensational parts in the film, but it is very real, the rhythm is also very steady, and it will not deliberately be sensational. Under the wrong direction of the bureaucratic supervisor, the accident happened, and everyone was struggling to survive. The scene where the hero finally pushed the heroine into the water to escape was very good. It reminded me of that sentence, when disaster strikes, you will catch Whose hand is it in? Such a choice is actually difficult. Human beings continue to grab resources from nature, and their greed is unstoppable, and even fights for it. For our own material enjoyment, we continue to exploit everything we need in this world, such as water, oil, natural gas, minerals, and even air. ! We kill indiscriminately for our needs, and then the world we live in starts to get worse, which accelerates the speed at which we grab nature. So earthquakes, volcanoes, extreme weather, tsunamis, and disasters represent the wrath of nature, so human beings cry out to protect nature and protect our world! But we forget that this is not our world, nor our nature. Humans need nature, but nature does not need human beings at all! If this goes on, the demise of mankind is a matter of time! The last scene in the film is very tender. The names of the eleven dead oil workers appear one by one, along with the last images they left in this world, making people feel the fragility of life and the beauty of life. This movie is a little bit of a reflection at this point. But I don't think it's enough. We should be familiar with the film director Peter Berg. This guy is also an example of acting and directing. Superman Hancock. However, his directing level is very unstable, and he has also shot such special films as the bad film "Super Battleship". But this "Deep Sea Catastrophe" definitely represents one of his best standards. Recommend this movie, one of the best movies to watch in 2016.
