①
Although there are also the waiter's defiance and the chef's perseverance, "Mumbai Hotel" is still an anti-hero——
The main line that drives the story is the terrorist's killing plan, not the Jedi counterattack of the unwilling to be captured, but it is just about to get up and die on the spot.
②
Based on true events, so—
The name of the chef in the film is consistent with reality, because he has long been a household hero in India, and a pseudonym is meaningless.
The waiter Arjun is based on the deeds of different people.
Are Indian police really so incompetent? no.
Actually more incompetent. Anyway, in the movie, a team of heroic police officers rushed into the sinkhole, and two people were left dead. After all, they played a key role. In real history, the panic-stricken Mumbai local police system decided that before the situation became clear, it might as well stay put.
So it's unbelievable that the terrorist attack in the hotel lasted for 9 hours in the movie. In fact, the real Mumbai hotel terrorist attack lasted for nearly three days.
③
An experiential movie. Only present, not dig deep, therefore, there is no praise, no judgment.
The story is nothing more than terrorists kill, passengers flee, and terrorists continue to kill. There is no reversal of strength or weakness, and it is not even evenly matched. If you do not consider the ties of real history, the difficulty of pulling away from emotions that hurt others, and the sensory impact of brutal killing, it is actually a boring story in itself.
④
In the process of watching the movie, I felt a sense of sight for a moment. Thinking about it, it was the New Zealand shooting in early March.
Extreme Muslims look the same as extreme anti-Muslims.
