It doesn’t look good when I first saw it, and many places are a bit fake

The Internet rated life and death sniper as a professional sniper movie. In fact, the beginning of the sniper war and the assassination of the president seemed more professional. The wooden huts were not enough to encircle the war, and 24 special forces squeezed up one by one to give away the heads.

The villain said that the United States is fighting in other countries for oil rather than freedom. This is already well known. Dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water. They are not black spots, and Americans do not care.

In the end, the real bad guys were only two or three villains. As soon as the prosecutor appeared, the aura of the separation of powers shined, and the United States became a beacon of freedom and democracy. This is called fighting poison with poison and filling gold in the shit.

But the prosecutor said that we can't manage things in Africa, which is a bit shameless. The most adept at invading other countries, the long-armed beacon, when has it been talked about procedural justice and international law in a high-sounding way.

At the end of the film, the three villains are killed by the male protagonist. The mastermind of the earth-shattering conspiracy, the core player in the power of the United States, just like this there are two or three kittens and puppies. Before, there was a lot of bragging about the power of the table, and the number of people on the table was limited, but the table was so small that it was a little shabby, and I found it pitiful. The sins committed by the United States systematically in overseas colonies were condensed into trivial stains through the shaping of these three clowns, and they were gently wiped away by the male protagonist, and everyone was happy.

In reality, it is certainly impossible for an interest group to have just such a group of people. Even if the hero kills the boss, the family power behind them will not let him go. It is even more impossible for the ruling class to allow an assassin who can kill the senator to be at ease. The prosecutor actually hinted that the male protagonist could secretly kill the villain, which is outrageous.

Excluding politics is not good enough for the movie itself. One is that the shootout is a bit fake (mainly the 1v24 period), and the other is the conspiracy revealing process, and the suspense is not well set up.

  • Nick Memphis: [sips coffee, chokes, coughs]

    Mr. Rate: [smiling] Good coffee?

    Nick Memphis: Yeah.

  • Mr. Rate: Would've been a bad job to take, though.

    Nick Memphis: How come?

    Mr. Rate: Whoever took that shot's probably dead now. That's how conspiracy works. Them boys on the grassy knoll, they were dead within three hours. Buried in the damn desert. Unmarked graves out past Terlingua.

    Nick Memphis: And you know this for a fact?

    Mr. Rate: Still got the shovel!
