To save or not to save

The whole plot is very tense and nerve-wracking. The subject matter is similar to 127hours, but the angle of writing and the things expressed are different, and the results are also different. There is no life in this film, or it gives you a glimmer of hope and then makes you despair, repeating over and over again. Listening to Ryan's tight breathing, he was desperate again and again. He has been fighting and trying to survive. This is human instinct and Ryan's instinctive reaction.
From the beginning to the end of the story the shot never leaves the wooden coffin, a cell phone (black berry 8900), a Zippo, a knife, a flashlight, a few fluorescent lights. The film itself does not cost much, so I think the cost of this film is very low, but not necessarily all low-cost films are well made. Like "Kill Bill", there are not many films with low cost and big harvest. It is rumored Some time ago, the screenwriter of the film, Spalin, was illegally canvassing votes or something. I don't know how much the film has sold at the box office, and I don't bother to check it, the point is not here.
From the content of the story and the script itself, the screenwriter seems to want to express something. Ryan was trapped in a wooden coffin. He was the first to ask his family for help, but he didn't respond. Then he asked his wife's friends for help. Although he encountered some difficulties, But still got a key number, the next few numbers are obtained through this. It can be seen that there is dissatisfaction with some of the existing methods and policies of the US government to rescue hostages. From an official point of view, how can the high technology in the United States not have a phone number that Ryan can get himself. Put fighting terrorists first, save their citizens and hostages second. , that is, in order not to violate their policy on terrorists, the safety of the life of the hostages can be given up. But Ryan's first reaction when he saw Pamela Ratti being kidnapped was to do anything to save the mother of two children. The two are just a contrast. And the mastermind who buried him underground is estimated to be CRI, and there may be a bigger conspiracy behind it. The most incredible thing to me is that Iraqi civilians are so smart in their criminal skills and intelligence.
As always, I still have to take out the most classic sentence and show it.
Ryan: What have I done to you, I am only here because my job is to make money
. Without
Ryan: It's Not My Fault
The other party: 911 is not my fault, but you are here. Saddam's not my fault they're here again
Ryan: I'm here to help rebuild
each other: rebuild what you broke
