The theme film is a genre film

The story of "Terrorist Attack on Boston" is tense and tearful, but it is not a perfect work. Stylized: There are no accidents. As the opening, the film focuses on describing the peaceful life of everyone before the disaster. The kindness and love of the nurse and the young couple foretell that they will suffer misfortune in the future (the two were later blown off by both legs). The police officer's knee pain must be used to portray the image of a public servant of the people who can't fall into the line of fire with minor injuries. The beginning echoed at the end, and the young couple who lost their legs in the blink of an eye lived a strong life, and the police officer believed more in his value as a city guardian during the entire arrest process. Despite the stylization, the audience received optimistic comfort and positive guidance, and the theme film as a genre film completed a tacit communication with its own audience. characters, Good people are good, bad people are evil, it is the taboo of the main theme film. Because it is unconvincing. The weakness of "Terrorist Attack on Boston" is also the lack of level of character image. Successful characterization must depict the inner activities of the characters and show the complexity of human nature. The film is a little bit lackluster in terms of character development. The innocence of the victims and the grief of witnesses are indisputable, but some details are deliberate in the mentality of punishing the criminals. The arrogant-looking interrogator said to the perpetrator's wife: You have no bullshit power. Many audience members applauded inwardly at this moment. While enjoying the power conferred by the legal system, these terrorists started killing civilians. They really do not deserve any bullshit power. The kidnapped Chinese told the police that going to catch those son-of-a-bitch is also a direct voice to the public. The film successfully grasped the scale of not advocating hatred, but still satisfied the audience's sense of catharsis in terms of revenge mentality. Reflecting on all the movies related to terrorists, personally, what I want to understand is why these terrorists do what they do, why do they kill, why do they get angry, why do they sacrifice their lives, blow up a building, and wash a theater with blood , in addition to bringing endless pain to the victims and their families, what exactly do they want. "Terrorist Attack on Boston" did not give an answer, why the two crazy brothers hated the government and society, and how they felt after taking the first step. In addition to claiming that the injured person has no fear and a strong smile towards the future, the film does not seem to be able to make a deeper reflection. At the end of the film, the protagonist, Police Officer Tommy, said that good will conquer evil, and that love can cure everything. Narrative and rhythm The success of a film lies in the clarity of the narrative and the compact rhythm, tracing, street fighting and gunfights, which are also required actions for the commercial success of a film. The theme film can be regarded as a genre film with its fixed elements and formulas. The specific elements include: characters: good people + bad people, plot: the struggle between the two, the ending must be good over evil, and the theme is always patriotism and patriotism. national sentiment. In some countries, most of these films are called or funded by government agencies to serve the purpose of self-image building and ideological education.
