Money, power, and women have always been the only ways to create drama conflicts, and they are also the most instinctive desires of human nature.
French New Wave master Jean-Luc Godard once said, " To make a movie, you only need a gun and a girl. "
So if you want a group of people to fight to the death in the movie, the easiest way is to put a huge sum of money and let them do whatever they can to grab it.
But the job of robbing a bank is too untechnical. A pair of stockings, a gun, and a life-threatening life, this kind of simple and crude crime movie, the audience has already seen aesthetic fatigue.
But the above-mentioned prawns, soldiers and crabs, in the face of " Stealing the Golden City ", are completely at the level of pediatrics.
If you increase the volume without increasing the price, the US SEALs tell you that they are going to grab 3 billion this time! Still gold!
Don't believe it, there are two great gods behind this seemingly bragging story. One is Luc Besson, the director of "This Killer Is Not So Cold"; the other is Steven Querrey, the VFX Supervisor of "Avatar".
This American version of the "Golden Robbery" story starts from the Bosnia and Herzegovina region during World War II——
In order to maintain the huge expenses of the war, the German Nazis frantically plundered wealth in the European occupied areas. However, when they wanted to pack the whole car gold and give it away, the guerrillas used explosives to blow up the dam and flood the gold mountain. Evil beasts and huge amounts of gold are buried together in the dark bottom.
In this little-known tragedy, the only survivor was a bear kid who stole gold bars. After many years, he left all the gold bars and secrets to his granddaughter.
So how does all this have to do with the US Navy SEALs?
It's also a coincidence that these five good brothers who live and die together happen to be performing a secret mission in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Two of them disguised as TV reporters, broke into Longtan Tiger's Lair, and then joined the other three inside and outside, hijacking the leader of the rebel army in minutes, and then retreating whole body surrounded by chasing after interception.
You have to ask what is the relationship between the tank battle on the street and the gold robbing behind?
It doesn't matter, the director is just to tell the audience that the US Navy SEALs are playing tanks, which are more fierce than war wolves!
In order to destroy a city for one person, the five brothers turned the secret operation into explosive news. The old man Simmons in "Blasting Drummer", as their superior, still had his temper unchanging and furiously suspended the SEAL team from pay.
The temporarily unemployed elite troops had to spend their time in the bar. The five brothers used wine to relieve their sorrows, and only the most handsome brother was very happy, because he had an unexpected gain that night, and hooked up to the bed with the 1.8-meter-long girl in the bar.
Not only did the girl agree with her body, she also took out the gold bars handed down from her grandfather and ancestors. She told the little brother that this baby is worth more than your baby, which is about 150,000 U.S. dollars. Counting the two thousand buried in the lake near my house, the total is 3 billion U.S. dollars.
Hearing this astronomical figure, the little brother was so excited that he didn't even have time to wear his shirt, so he told his four good brothers the news.
As the saying goes, golden carats, golden carats, making a fortune depends on it!
Five people think about it, anyway, it's idle, it's better to do a big vote.
So they borrowed all kinds of black technology equipment from the unit, hoping to get all the 3 billion gold from underwater.
The specific plan is as follows: They dive into the Golden City, use buoyancy to take the gold out, and then find good friends who fly the plane to transport the gold to a safe area.
But there are also many problems they face. The waters where the Golden City is located belong to the enemy-occupied area. Of course, the rebels who already know the existence of gold refuse to let go of this windfall. Moreover, the SEALs still hijack their boss's enemies.
The five brothers think that gold is in the bag, and the rebels think they are catching turtles in the urn. So when two groups of people meet underwater, it really makes the enemy jealous when they meet. Daggers, bullets, grenades, everything that can be thrown into the water was thrown in. After a splash of water, when the SEALs were outnumbered, Shuke, who flew the plane...well, flew the plane. Good friends fell from the sky and ended this money grabbing dispute with ease.
Later, Mr. Simmons made a severe criticism of the five brothers' unorganized and undisciplined behavior. At the same time, he said that the American soldiers would never take the stitches of the masses, exchange the gold for a Swiss bank check, and return all of them to the sister...
The story of the movie "Stealing the Golden City" is undoubtedly super brainless, but the action scenes are still quite overwhelming. Luc Besson and Steven Kwee, two big names in the industry, although they did not leave a classic this time, they have joined forces to give the audience a popcorn drama that is enough to pass the boring time.
A group of Americans traveled far and wide to Europe. They were not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice in the face of thousands of enemies. They were able to pick up gold in the face of sky-high gold prices, and returned all of them to help the people in poor areas. This is what Mencius said, the rich and the noble cannot be fornication, the poor and the poor cannot be moved, and the mighty cannot be yielded . Americans are really big husbands!
I want to say that gold has been robbed. Next time I want to play new tricks in American movies, I am afraid there will only be diamonds!
