Although the film is extremely politically correct, its social significance is even greater. The problems reflected from a confidential international cooperation rescue are thought-provoking, and the spirit behind the film is also worth learning. However, this film is far from perfect from the perspective of the script alone.
I admit that the director's skills are very skillful, and he is almost perfect in handling the tense plot. He always captures the audience's heart and stimulates the audience's adrenaline. However, the lack of change in the characters' hearts indicates that this film does not have the grounding truth that it wants to teach every ordinary person.
This is not a movie dominated by the central theme—we have to learn to help or trust each other, or learn to be calm, or learn to resist authority, but only from the plot.
This film may be aimed at uncovering real problems, but this problem has been raised in the first 10 minutes of the film, and the audience is not aware of it at the end, so I don’t think this film aims to reveal the problem.
In my opinion, this film has important social significance for its shooting. It reveals this action, restores the true history, and demonstrates the superiority and feasibility of international cooperation. There is no problem at the director level, and it does its best. When it comes to perfection, you are nervous. But in my mind it is more like a commemorative movie, it only lets us know an action. We applaud the greatness of this action because of the action itself, but not because the script can touch our hearts.
From the perspective of the script alone, I think the theme of this film is thin, the emotions are slightly far-fetched, and the structure is quite satisfactory. But the commendable truth and meticulousness make it much better than most crisis films.
I thank and respect all those who have worked hard to make this film. I am willing to applaud, but I will not cry.
