A few veteran sunset parties

Only after sitting on Cathay Pacific did I know how bad Air China is. Not to mention food and drink. Although Cathay Pacific’s on-demand movies are not particularly rich, at least there are choices and a variety of categories. "Red Flame Battlefield", the Hong Kong translation is "hot". The reason why this movie with no new meaning attracts my attention is that among the four big-name protagonists, I like John Malkovich and Helen Mirren very much. I also like Morgan Freeman and Bruce Willis.

Neither Chinese translation reveals the meaning of the English title "RED", that is, "Retired, Extremely Dangerous". It's not easy for these big names in their twilight years to star in an action movie, not to mention that the three other than Bruce Willis are not action stars. So "Red Flame Battlefield" made a fuss about the details and the bridge, using the temperament of several acting schools to come up with the cynical comedy style of the film, which can be said to be a very clever way. For example, the ridiculous military uniform of the calm African dictator Morgan Freeman, the inseparable Porco Rosso by the neurotic John Malkovich, and so on. Today, when China is attracting more and more attention, Bruce Willis reluctantly spoke a Chinese sentence.

But other than that, "Red Flame Battlefield" did not bring me any surprises. We should regard this film as a sunset gathering of a few veterans. I deeply sigh that Hollywood seems to have no successor in temperament stars. I want Meryl Streep and Helen Mirren, not to be stupid in the twilight.

    This is a good movie that absolutely fits the genre. The retired agent is easy to make fun of it with a little conspiracy and less black. In the end, the protagonist embraces a beautiful woman. It is not bad for the cancer patient to get that kind of home. The CIA and VP use it to tease. What's wrong. Don’t make a mistake about the positioning of the genre, and match those live treasure characters, old drama bones, and Bruce Willis’s standard sentence: A few years ago, I lived in Wuhan—the rhythm problem is enough to be forgiven.

RED quotes

  • Sarah Ross: [drugged and almost kidnapped] Am I gonna die?

    Frank Moses: No. You just need some sleep.

    Sarah Ross: I may vomit.

    [speeding away]

    Sarah Ross: Wow, this is just like "Love's Savage Secret".

  • Frank Moses: I was just hoping you'd be a little more understanding of the situation.

    Sarah Ross: I-I was hoping not to get kidnapped. Or drugged. I was hoping you'd have hair. So it looks like none of our dreams are coming true, at the moment.
