As a cutscene for a computer game, it is complex enough. But as a movie. . . . . . , Director, please, can you show some sincerity anyway? Originally, the setting of the protagonist's amnesia can bring a lot of suspense to the audience, but the bad editing destroys the setting of the doubt, and the three-hour movie is unattractive 20 minutes after the start. Perhaps the director believes that under the weight of the recent financial crisis, the audience’s intelligence has generally declined? Political thrillers have their own unique charm. Extreme closeness to reality may be the best evaluation of this type of movie. Politics is a game of very high standards. Various political groups integrate all available resources and compete in all aspects. To describe it in one word, it is "dark battle", and every detail is worthy of fun. A mature politician will not surrender the fate of a country to one person, not to mention that he is still a killer (not as simple as investigating a drug transaction). Even if it is a movie for the general public, once it involves politics, it should look thoughtful when it comes out (refer to "Sirna", it's not necessarily good, but it's worth watching). Unfortunately, this film does not show that there has been the slightest effort in this regard. Perhaps it is due to the limitations of the game, or the limitations come from the screenwriter or the director himself.
Of course you can say that I treat it as an action movie, and politics is my business. But the action design of this film is too sad. Those "bandit soldiers" who have no lines are "touched" by the protagonist and they just utter a fart, while the little BOSS and elite monsters struggled with 13 and then easily shortened themselves. To be sure, 13’s memory is really problematic, because the screenwriter wants him to remember everything he remembers, and he does not want him to remember everything. At first, he didn’t want to reveal the plot that he couldn’t explain later. He could remember it again. Up. . . . . . Of course, there are still many unreasonable things that you have to discover for yourself.
Overall, this is a bad movie. But if these plots can be completed within an hour and a half, I think it is still worth watching.
