Terrorist attacks are now the top priority of all countries in the world. There is no doubt that Moscow is still the imaginary enemy of the CIA. The anti-American elements headed by Galevin are trying to bring down the United States in economic and terrorist attacks. Galevin’s fabricated son is in Afghanistan. His death was all about making excuses for the backstage of his deeper service, and his son's eventual dedication to the country and his final execution seemed to ruthlessly satirize the ruthlessness and cruelty of the authorities he served.
The film is still the usual Hollywood assembly line work. It is also the same to watch the film with Robert McKee's five essentials of the wonderful story. The purpose of the hidden agents is to find out the economic source of terrorist activities. This is the motivational event of the film. For Jack Ryan, it is his lifelong wish to serve the country. So he can give up his Ph.D. study, he can hide his fiancee for three years, the purpose is to better serve the country. The existence of Inciting Events naturally leads to the emergence of developmental entanglements, crises, climaxes and endings. The friction between Jack Ryan's mission to Moscow and the Galevin Group should be the start of the prelude. How to obtain the internal information of the Galevin Group should be the emergence of a crisis, and the final acquisition of information is followed by the discovery of the terror of Galevin's son in the United States. The attack plan heralded the arrival of a climax. Of course, in the end, the terrorist attack was disintegrated, and Galevin was also killed by the authorities. The ending was still a temporary peace in exchange for peace.
The image of Ryan dedicated to the film should still be relatively full. Knowing that his motherland was attacked by terrorists, abandoning his pen and joining the army, and then recuperating from the air raid, and finally winning the decisive battle in Moscow, the film fully demonstrates the image of a typical positive agent. And this agent is not like James Bond's constant affair, but he is a loyal and good man, loves his fiancée deeply, and has a good man with responsibilities. Chris Pine, who performed well in "Star Trek", played the role. Although he is not the fan of the muscular man, he made the audience shine with his intelligence and agility.
The film's heroine Ryan's fiancee, Casey, is played by Keira Knightley, who starred in "Anna Karenina". As a doctor but she loves her fiancé. When her fiancé needs help, Casey does not. She is not as frightened as the average little girl, but is active and brave and willing to help her fiancé. Although the future may be bumpy, Kathy is fully prepared to go through fire and water for the country and the people she loves. Keira Knightley's performance is quite satisfactory, and the most shining scene is dealing with the womanizer Galevan, giving full play to her special charm of women.
The rhythm of the film is moderately controlled, and the entire viewing process does not feel dull. Of course, the climax part makes people feel the tension and excitement of life and death. Although some details are not very clear, there are no major flaws. In fact, I thought that the film would be a special agent drama without the smell of gunpowder, but in fact, it is not the personality of Hollywood to play no action, no drag racing, or no explosion, so we still got our wish to appreciate the Hollywood style of the film. Among the New Year's Eve stalls where many anime movies get together, "Triggered" should be a good choice for young and middle-aged people.
