It is no exaggeration to say that this film can be said to be the most normal American action shootout since the outbreak of the epidemic last year. There is a relatively complete story logic, the plot clues basically have a beginning and a tail, and the characters of each character are not obviously disconnected. Generally speaking, it is a qualified American gunfight action film.
Different from Jason Statham's previous film and television works, in this film, apart from being calm and calm, he has superb marksmanship, and the whole process is quite satisfactory, and there are not too many action highlights. On the contrary, the equipment when the six retired soldiers robbed the escort warehouse will impress the audience even more deeply.
The highlight of the film is their full body armor and helmet.
From the appearance point of view, it is very futuristic, and it protects almost all parts of the body that can be protected. The fully enclosed helmet even completely protects the neck, and the body and limbs are covered with modular bulletproof devices on high-strength flexible materials. Black metal matte texture.
Audiences who have seen a lot of heroic shootout films wearing suits and shirts holding machine guns to fight the world. I just saw these bulletproof vests in this film, and they may feel that it is a bit of a fuss, but the real utility of these protective equipment is with the armed security guards in the warehouse. When shooting in the opposite direction, it has an amazing suppressive effect.
Among the weapons used by warehouse security personnel, ordinary pistols have almost no substantial effect on such body armor. Only a few who have obtained G36 assault rifles can cause certain damage to armed robbers, but it seems to be very limited.
A brief introduction to the G36 rifle. Developed by the German Heckler-Koch Group Company, it is the standard equipment of the German Wehrmacht and the Spanish Army. It uses 5.56x45mm NATO standard bullets. The theoretical rate of fire reaches 750 rounds per minute, and the initial velocity of the warhead reaches 920m/s. Close to 1700 joules.
What is this concept? Generally speaking, the power of such a bullet is equivalent to the energy of a big hammer used to smash a wall. It's hard to stand still after being smashed back again and again. In addition, the gun body has better control of recoil, and it is difficult to have a material with sufficient protection strength to effectively resist the pouring bullets when firing in rapid bursts.
In fact, assuming that there is such a body armor, even if the veterans and robbers in the film wear it, in front of the bullets fired by the G63 at high speed, it is easy to be smashed to stand up or even fracture, especially when shooting on the helmet, It is easy to cause neck fractures. Almost unscathed as in the film, it may be for dramatic needs, highlighting the force and protection of the robbers can completely overwhelm the warehouse security staff.
So is there such a body armor in reality? The answer is no.
First of all, at the current level of technology, the protective effectiveness of body armor is proportional to its bloatedness. In order to achieve a bulletproof effect similar to that in the film, it is estimated that the robbers have to wear the same clothes as the bomb disposal soldiers in "The Hurt Locker".
Secondly, if Laomei really has such equipment, veteran soldiers can get it, and elite troops, such as SEALs, etc., will be installed in the past, and the scum jihadists who go to destroy the Taliban Islamic State are almost like chopping melons and vegetables. Usually easier, but it's not.
Finally, this kind of body armor is of course a good research and development idea, but it needs to make a major breakthrough in the basic research and development of material technology. Objectively speaking, U.S. imperialism is still the most promising in the world.
