Terrorists themselves are a very incomprehensible group, but they have existed in different forms and names since ancient times. I believe that the purpose of religion itself will not be to control human beings to achieve bloody slaughter. However, in the pursuit of approaching "gods", too many misguided paths have appeared on the pretext of faith. The Crusade is a funny story. You believe in God and I believe in Allah. Why don't you come all the way to conquer my people. Similarly, in the September 11th tragedy, if you are dissatisfied with American imperialism, how can it be useful to kill thousands of civilians who are not directly involved in political decisions? However, human beings are fragile creatures. The overly complex brain creates magnificent cultures and miracles, but also acts as an Achilles’ heel. The most effective way to control a person is never a threat but to break his psychological defenses. A devout believer can go on a pilgrimage with three knees and long heads in one step, or he can naturally complete a arduous and completely against humanity task with a bomb.
Therefore, it is reasonable to comment on this work with words such as "nervous" and "hard-to-force" in the context of China's lack of a unified religion or any other form of belief since ancient times, but it also shows a lack of respect for this power.
In fact, we have faith, and what we believe in is power and strength. This is the reason why the monarchy can make thousands of people surrender to the feet of the emperor, or the frenzy of worship 50 or 60 years ago. However, this simple belief is obviously incompatible with several major religious dogmas. So when we first saw terrorists scrambling to die, the first thought in our hearts was: "You stupid?"
Believe that the "saints" are here. If you hear about the heroic moment, you will definitely respond with a scornful smile: "Stupid human."
This is basically the story that happened to Brody before the mission, and it should be almost the same as Walker's. After being beaten by confinement drugs for a few years, suffering physically and lacking care in mind, the so-called belief in the navy to defend the country can not provide any protection or help at this time, and the so-called flesh and blood of loved ones cannot provide the slightest comfort at all. A person's various needs have been reduced to the bottom, humblely panting, and the brain has actually been emptied. At this time, a man appears, feeds you water, takes you out of the magic cave to a bright and warm room, arranges a steaming bath for you, and puts you on a clean and soft cotton coat-we can ridicule it lightly "I converted to Islam after being tortured for 8 years? I fell in love with that man?" But who knows if this process is inevitable or logical. Those who have read "1984" are not unfamiliar with this theory: when life is not as good as an ant, there will be an existence that provides respect and love. Whether you are friends or foes, you will have complete trust and loyalty to him.
The screenwriter added a small but complicated emotional entanglement: Abu sent his son to Brody to learn English. No one can reject a simple child. His watery eyes, shy face, and his unsuspecting embrace made him undoubtedly the first true "child" after Brody returned to the world. Objects you want to protect. Issac's death consolidated Brody's hatred of American imperialism to a level that was difficult to dissolve. He watched the acting president shamelessly lie on TV, and decided to kill these hypocritical bastards in his heart. In this sense, we cannot blame him. That gang of politicians who killed 82 children but shirked responsibility really deserved to die.
This is the highlight of the plot. If you are not used to the plot loophole hunting habit of pretending to be B show IQ, you will start to struggle along the plot at this time, because the Issac incident made Brody and Abu Nazir from simple evil terrorists He has become a justice executor to some extent. It is not unreasonable for a bereaved father to let the murderer pay back his blood. Moreover, these bureaucrats who hold the highest power in the country are likely to launch such a brutal attack again.
But at the last minute the bomb’s mechanism got stuck (this must be bloody, the plot must continue, how to shoot after signing the second season of the male protagonist died and the mission is completed), because Kari frantically warned her daughter to call Brody crying Call to make sure he will go home safely. At this time, as an ordinary man rather than a messenger for task execution, Brody's psychological defenses collapsed. He still wanted this home. He was not as invincible as he thought. Every day after returning, he remembered the time he had 8 years ago and gave birth to nostalgia. So he stepped back and watched the vice president walk out of the secret room. I personally thought that from that moment on, Brody no longer believed in Nazir so firmly. The weight of his family was heavier. The family was by his side, and the behavior of Walker was just a way of delaying he thought of. The responsibility as a parent gave him the courage and courage. The terrorist leader plays this game of chess, believing that he and his family can retreat from the whole body and live a flat and happy life. As for whether it can work, it depends on the meaning of the screenwriter.
Let’s talk about Kari. As an uncommon female agent, she has become one of my favorite characters. She is sharp, indomitable, and strong to death, but because of the need for drama, she has to be inserted into Achilles’ heel. ——Mental disease (I don’t know what the disease is, I think it looks like mania). Claire Danes' acting skills add a special charm to the story with a relatively single role and lack of sensory stimulation. Such an aggressive agent is not annoying. Her intense and subtle emotional changes are explained exactly one by one, without appearing false. Or go overboard. If you want to pick it up, you can only say that not everyone likes watching movies about mental illness.
All in all, the first season is very exciting, the theme is conservatively selected but it is unfolding in a different way. It is definitely considered in-depth among many anti-terrorism works. The level of the actors is also satisfactory. I hope that the second season will not appear in accordance with tradition. Situation. Another sigh, Damian Lewis is so handsome. Ten years of time here is obviously not a pig-killing knife. I hope Brody, the coquettish coquettish who actively seduce Kari at the beginning, can still be with Kari sister~
