Four reasons to recommend this film

The so-called "eye in the sky" refers to the UAV of the US military, which can fly at an altitude of 20,000 feet to observe the enemy's situation, and can carry missiles, if necessary, can immediately give the enemy a precise and destructive strike.
The United States and Britain have jointly hunted down a terrorist organization that is circling in Africa. The leaders of this organization are American and British citizens. This hunting operation has been implemented for 6 years, and finally one day, under the guidance of reliable sources from all sides, the hunting team led by Helen Mirren locked the target in the house of a wealthy businessman in Nairobi. In this room, the terrorist organization is preparing for a large-scale suicide operation. Due to the peculiarities of the situation, the hunting action was transformed into a beheading action...This
film is about the whole process of this beheading action.
I recommend this film for three reasons:
1. The cast and crew. This
film is the posthumous work of Alan Rickman.
The film is produced by Collin Firth.
Starring Helen Mirren ("Queen"), the 79th Oscar actress.
The little fan in "Breaking Bad" also performed countless times better than "Need for Speed" in the film.
There is also the big bear who was abandoned by Karishe in "Game of Thrones" and came here to be the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the British Empire.

2. Professionalism
Whether it is Helen Mirren who sits in the command room, the ground troops who are waiting for the target, and the little fans who are on standby to throw bombs, they all lose the aura of the actors and show a full military demeanor. This is not just a lot of professional military terms, but also their looks and behavior, they are like soldiers who have been in the army for many years. This kind of professionalism from the inside out and their credible performances keep the audience tightly choked.
3.
There are too many excellent war-themed films in critical history, and the above two alone are not enough to constitute a reason for recommending this film. The highlight of this film is that it ruthlessly mocks the British government's tedious and complicated authorization system, and the style of playing the ball that no one wants to be responsible. This piece occupies a very long frame in this film, and it is also extremely exciting. The film also deliberately compared it with US officials, and the taunting index instantly doubled.
4. Humanity
War films without humanity are political propaganda films, and this practice is more common in film and television works in socialist countries.
Although I felt a little sensational in the humanity of the film, it was also deeply moved. However, this film is by no means simply sensational, and it will not make deliberate changes to the ending that are obviously unrealistic because of the idea that humanity is supreme, which is popular in Western film and television works. Facing the tragic ending is even more impactful. The title of the film "Eye of the Sky" also means that the sky is watching.
Based on the above, I recommend this film.

    Leaving aside the theme of the film, I really annoyed the British people's unhurried tone. When their eyebrows were on fire, they were arguing with each other in a slow manner. No one dared to take responsibility. , look at the United States, a clean and crisp, no wonder the British can only mix behind the American ass. Another thing to say is that the director didn't have the tension that a film must have.

    A film of fake benevolence, drone bombing on the real battlefield doesn't care about the life and death of a child so much. With so many children who died in the bombing in Syria, do they care so much about the casualties of a civilian? Instead, this movie feels that the director’s hypocrisy, acting pretentiously for ordinary people to see

    Lt. General Frank Benson: I have attended the immediate aftermath of five suicide bombings, on the ground, with the bodies. What you witnessed today, with your coffee and your biscuits, is terrible. But what these men would have done would have been even more terrible.
