First, it is too ruthless. The theme of 911 that touched the nerves of the American people was actually spoken in such a cold and indifferent tone. Bigelow, are you still a human being?
2. Too detailed. Why do we need to know a girl with red hair and no eyebrows, and how much effort and sacrifice the CIA behind him has made for this action, how many sins he has committed, and how many people have been killed. Anyway, we would just celebrate Bin Laden's death with joy. Things that are too detailed, one is irrelevant, and the other is confusing.
People who use the first article to criticize 0D30 are best to give me a particularly loud liking, otherwise they will really slap themselves in the face. As for the second person, can I call it ignorance? Because this is a living ignorance. The value of the 911 theme, in addition to emotionally touching 3,000 victims, more survivors and relatives behind them, can also cause infinite reflection. Reflect on the Middle East policy of the United States and the world before and after 9/11; Reflect on whether we have been adopting anti-terrorism methods since 9/11 to simply use violence in exchange for violence, whether it has truly eliminated the hotbed of terrorism from the root cause; Rethink why different cultures conflict Can cause such tragic consequences, how can we avoid such tragedies from happening again in the future. And this 0D30 is full of all kinds of statements and reflections caused by hoping to fully reveal the facts.
So I don't understand why so many people criticized that this film is the main theme film, which is to beautify the United States. The main melody film will not reflect. They will only tell you a happy ending in a sensational tone. They will only flash tears and shout with a trembling smile, "Bin Laden is dead! The dark clouds covering world peace are dispelled." Now!" Then he embraced you in his arms with a suffocating gesture. And 0D30 is not such a film.
From the very beginning, Bigelow directly summarized the torture scandal that the United States has imposed on terrorist suspects since 9/11. Waterboarding, violent beatings, food deprivation, sleep deprivation, mental torture, and personal insults are all available. While the clues are advancing, it highlights the strong hostility of the Muslim world towards the United States and the entire Western world. In the last Canary action, it emphasized that every time the target had been refilled, it also emphasized that while killing the second man in Bin Laden’s hiding place, he also unrelentingly killed him. In grief, she just wants to protect her husband’s wife. And it is precisely this pair who raised the most children, that is to say, within five seconds, there are many more orphans whose parents have died in the world; the most terrifying thing is that they witnessed the death of their parents, the murderer. The United States is extremely clear. Whether they will grow up with their hatred of the United States, whether they will pick up their father's gun and throw themselves into the ranks of revenge against the United States, we don't know.
A two-hour and forty-minute movie, combined with information obtained from various channels, can combine in our minds a secret but extremely bloody war. Both sides of the war did everything they could to do all kinds of despicable things; at the same time, both sides invested a surprising amount of manpower and material resources. Each participant also demonstrated various traditional virtues: dedication, focus, and Almost paranoid obsession. But in this context, what have we got?
Yes, bin Laden is indeed dead, but since his death was confirmed, to the end of the film, the heroine has not shown a slight smile, and there is no sign of relaxation. Just like this world, bin Laden's death did not dispel the nightmare of terrorism. We still worry about the resurrection and counterattack of the devil from time to time. And Bigelow also asked through this film: Is the United States really the side of justice? Repeatedly mentioning the three thousand victims of 9/11, is it really not an overexploitation of the value of the dead, or an overuse of the idea of revenge? Can it really make us ignore that in the process of "revenge", those who hurt may be innocent Muslims?
Does the fight against terrorism really require "whatever it takes"?
And in the end, has terrorism really been hit?
So many questions have wiped out the aura of justice that the United States has always known as justice, and even negated the victory of the United States in the war on terrorism. This is doomed to this film. It is not so much a theme film that beautifies the United States, as it is an anti-theme film that slaps the United States. Indeed, it starts from a well-known beginning, but tells an ending that no one knows. And it is precisely because of the thought-provoking infinite space contained in this story that it is worth and needs to be told repeatedly. The reason to obliterate its dazzling value. After all, someone has to tell this story, and what are you hating against it.
