First of all, it is the script. When it comes to the plot, there is really nothing too unexpected, but the three main characters are The identity arrangement is still very good. The engineer is of Jewish descent, the air force colonel is black, and the president is white. These three people saved the world. It's self-explanatory.
Then there is a line that can be said in the script. My two favorite lines are, the engineer said: You are leaving the White House now. His ex-wife said: Now is not the time to discuss old issues. Another sentence is that the engineer’s father led everyone to pray according to the Jewish way and pulled the Minister of Defense together. The Minister of Defense said: I am not a Jew. The engineer's father said: It doesn't matter, no one is perfect. If the pun in the first sentence is just a humorous word played by the screenwriter on the surface, then I think it is very helpful for the improvement of the humanistic mood of the whole movie, even when watching such an unreal movie, you can still feel To the truest emotion between husband and wife. As for the second sentence, it is even better. What is perfect? In other words, what is right and what is wrong? These are all subjective standards, and this sentence should be told to Rumsfeld.
I also need to talk about the soundtrack. John Williams is very good at using majestic orchestral music to render the atmosphere. Of course, you can also hear unique rhythms and tunes in the performance of some small emotions. It is very complete, very harmonious, and very integrated.
In the last sentence, I really like the president's last speech at the airport. He said:
Good morning. Within an hour, the fighters here will unite with fighters from other parts of the world for the largest aerial battle in human history. Humans, this word has a whole new meaning for us today. We can no longer uselessly consume because of the insignificant differences between each other. We should unite for our common interests.
Perhaps due to fate, today is July 4th, and you will once again fight for our freedom, not to get rid of tyranny, oppression and cruelty, but for our continued survival. Today, if we win this war, July 4 will not only be a well-known American holiday, but will become such a day when the whole world announces with the same voice, "We will not enter this silently. Darkness, we will not give up the struggle and go to extinction. We will continue to live, we will continue to survive. Just today, let us celebrate our Independence Day!
Good morning. In less than one hour planes from here and all around the world will launch the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind… Mankind. The word has new meaning for all of us now. We are reminded not of our petty differences but of our common interests.
Perhaps it's fate that today, July the Fourth, we will once again fight for our freedom. Not from tyranny, persecution or oppression. But from annihilation. We're fighting for our right to live, to exit. From this day on, the fourth day of July will no longer be remembered as an American holiday but as the day that all of mankind declared we will not go quietly into the night. We will not vanish without a fight. We will live on. We will survive. Today we celebrate our independence day.
