also a disaster movie, all of which are the same high-rise fires. Compared with the "Skyscrapers" in South Korea, the Chinese "Escape from the Sky" is really a few blocks away. First, the stunts in "Escape from the Sky" are too fake, and the burning building is like a matchbox thrown on the ground. The raging fire is exactly the same as copy and paste. Second, there is no sense of joy in the film "Escape". This is too important for me watching disaster movies. It's really hard to make people laugh while not letting people breathe. With its unique characteristics, Korean movies have made a wedge of humor in disaster movies. For example, the man is holding the woman and trying to get her out of the elevator door, but she is stuck in the ass: the ass is too big-the ass is too big!

As a disaster film, how can there be no support for family affection and love? Conversely, as if there is no fetters of family and love, it is really too fake for the hero to face the danger and go through fire and water at the scene of the disaster. Compare it with the famous model drama "Red Lantern": Three generations of a revolutionary family are all single: Grandma Li has a dead wife, Li Yuhe has no wife, and Li Tiemei is a rare child. Everyone is committed to revolution, but the characters are too thin. Gu Tianle in "Escape" and his lover's persistence, Liu Qingyun's memory of his wife; the fire-fighting captain of "Skyscraper" personally ignited the blasting device in order to protect the safety of the island, and died under the collapsed building. The language message to his wife before lighting the device, really does not make people cry? In order to rescue his daughter, the captain in charge of building safety completed the transition from family affection and love to relief of the victims.

Let's talk about the cause of the fire in the two films. "Escape" arranges the time of the accident in the hot season; "Skyscraper" arranges the accident to happen on Christmas Eve. Look at their differences from this point of view. When a fire occurs in a hot weather, because of the inducement of the external environment, there is not much suspense. However, the repeated rendering of the external environment in the first ten minutes of the film strengthened the tense atmosphere of the film. After the tension passed, the depressive atmosphere suddenly eased. However, "Skyscrapers" is the opposite, step by step, with careful needle angles and silver-grey snake threads. At the beginning of the film, the dialogue between the daughter and the father about snowflakes laid ambush for the senior management of the building to create a romantic hidden line on the sunny Christmas Eve, but it also planted a disaster factor. The helicopter crashed into the building because of the strong rising air current, which occurred in the 33rd minute. The two negligent welders in "Escape" throw off their cigarette butts casually, causing disasters. This is the 18th minute of the film. At this time, he also deliberately made close-ups of the movements of the two decayed gods, and held the technique for the sparks of the cigarette butts. How can such an arrangement convince me? The high-level managers in "Skyscrapers" are more in line with the development of things. To attribute the occurrence of an accident to an external accident, rather than the people entangled in it, is to give up everything. Behind the defiant people, what reflects the simplicity and eagerness of the filmmakers.
