The Hollywood-style cast has cross-international big names gathered just by virtue of "2012" John Cusack and the Chinese-speaking brother Chow Yun-Fat, which make people fully impressed before seeing the real face. However, the essence of the film is different from "Spy". The title of "The Storm" is far from the same, and the plot is shoddy. The logic is extremely far-fetched in the context of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II. The story is interpreted as a spy war movie, let alone a sea of ​​spy wars, there is no water curtain for the spy war. Maybe only the English title sums up the essence of the whole movie. Shanghai?! It really happened in a special professional men and women in Shanghai. So much love and hatred that the only bloody murder scene in the film was interpreted as the farce of shooting a concubine, the only feeling after watching it was - regret!
Today's TV drama market and commercial film market have infinitely expanded the theme of spy wars, such as "Spy Change 1939", "Hidden", "Inside Line", "No. 5 Secret Service", and movies such as "The Wind", "Dongfeng Rain" The trilogy of "Infernal Affairs", which includes the theme of modern police undercover, contains many excellent works. I believe that friends who like "The Sound of the Wind" will be speechless after watching the bad film "Spy Sea"!
In fact, the main line of a spy war movie should be the duel between loyal and traitors. The protagonist's humiliation and burden in a gray border area under a certain period of time and the wisdom and courage to face the crisis, the close call to save the danger, the cruel and bloody confrontation between the enemy and the self, and black and white. The indistinguishable psychological battle seems calm, but the undercurrent is surging. Every step of the action will give rise to infinite possibilities. The psychological pressure of fighting alone is unimaginable. "The Wind" and "Inside Line" have done this very well. Hope in the future There will be better spy war films to enter our sight and keep in our heart~~
