This movie is an action movie in terms of content, but it is a nostalgic movie from the perspective of these actors, and even a farewell movie in my eyes, saying goodbye to their era. Bruce Willis, a man who created a classic heroic image in Die Hard, is now unable to move smartly anymore. The tension and courage of the action seem to be more than enough, not to mention. Other protagonists who are not stars. The passing of years does not only change the face, but also the loss of physical strength, courage, and ability to react. When you suddenly look back and suddenly find that you are no longer the bravery of the past, time has quietly brought you into the group of elderly people. Bruce Willis made such a sigh during the filming process. The explosive power of the action has been difficult to achieve, and the concise and powerful movements seem to be inadequate. Age has become his biggest heart disease. This once tough guy in the film is more whisper-like tenderness and tenderness.
Just like Morgan Freeman's appearance, he used small means to appreciate the woman's round buttocks, seated deep on the sofa, showing a gentle smile, and gently spit out "beautiful". At this time, I seemed to be back in that long-standing era, the era of "Shawshank Salvation." At the end of the clip, in the quiet and tranquil, in the wilderness with infinite space, Morgan Freeman played Ari smiled after seeing the letter that Andy left him. It's so touching, and it's so unforgettable. He has grown old, and once seen on the screen is less than once, like the countdown of a time bomb, and the end of his life splendidly, just like his sudden death that seems to come to an abrupt end in this film. But as far as I want to come, he died well, and dying on the battlefield is more direct, more anticipated, and more gratifying than death tortured by illness.
After the "Queen", Helen Mirren suddenly glowed the second spring. A serious but full of struggle and entanglement in the queen entered people's sight, and also led Helen Mirren to continue to appear in people's sight. We even saw her funny side in "National Treasure", and this side has continued into the movie "RED". However, it is a kind of second spring, which makes people lament the ruthlessness of the years. Age is always an unavoidable issue. Seeing her, I always unconsciously think of Stewart who has just passed away, and I think of the woman holding the Heart of the Sea with trembling hands. Helen Mirren is like the heart of the ocean, and the final Fanghua will return to the universe, and we will never see her wonderful performances in this world. This is the cruelty and reality of fate. The radiance of the second spring is like the return of light before it passes away. Amidst the admiration and harmony, the passing of life is an inevitable future.
Similarly, there is John Malkovich and Brian Cox. Together, these people formed a "Retired" team, and it is impossible not to say that the fatalistic elements in it are good fortune. The golden years that belonged to them have passed. Although they are still active on the screen, the sunset-like beauty has begun to make people sigh.
Just like the movie happened in winter, after experiencing the growth and beauty of spring, the passion and splendor of summer, and the harvest and stability of autumn, they ushered in the cold and steep of winter. In the snowy woods, the branches and leaves of the trees have already fallen, and what is left is the ultimate soul of life returning to the dust. This last passion and spark is telling a "Dangerous" serious life issue that everyone has to think about all the time.
I prefer to translate this film into "Red Sunset", to miss the retreat of these actors who have left us with countless classics, rather than symbolizing the expedition of the popular "Red Flame Battlefield". Classics become classics because of their non-replicability, the non-replicability of the people at that moment, and the non-replicability of the emotions of that moment, just like the non-replicability of life. We will remember the tough guy in Die Hard, the calm old man in Shawshank Redemption, the queen with infinite thinking in The Queen, and Bruce Willis, etc. Wait for these names.
"RED" is such a movie, too much demanding is already a luxury, they get together, emit some light like the setting sun, sprinkle soft light on our faces, say goodbye to us cordially, and smile. All stay. Isn't this moment beautiful?
