A gentle disaster film, not painful and very comfortable.

Can't remember the protagonist's name, but I know Denzel Washington and Chris Pine, so I used their real names instead.

Denzel Washington will always be the dignified face. The routine in "The Speed ​​of Dangerous Love" is the same as before, the disaster that cannot be resolved by civilization and the heroism of the little people, none of which can be missed. In the face of disasters, people's consciences begin to revive, and true feelings show the power to transcend reality. Every time I watch this kind of disaster movie, I feel that the sadness does not come from the physical casualties and pain, but from the emotional entanglement that has been brought out through the incident.

Chris Pine is a sensitive and suspicious man who nearly ruined his life by blaming his wife. In fact, after thinking about this negative feeling, there is something called true love. It is precisely because I love my wife so much that I wholeheartedly hand over my soul to her, and I wish I could become one with her, so I am particularly afraid. If I lose her, I am afraid of losing her in my hand, and afraid of melting in my mouth. Because of this extreme love, the wife thinks that Chris Pine has no trust in her, and thus loses confidence in him, and is terrified of his potential violent outbursts due to anxiety. This sad and masochistic mentality is very realistic and can easily resonate in people's hearts. It's just that the wife's role is too small, the emotional expression is too simple, there is no explosion or climax, I don't know if it is because the SARFT has edited it.

The love between Denzel Washington and his daughters seems too thin. It can be seen that the director of "Dangerous Love Hour" is very gentle. In order to make the main line clear and clear, the director cut off all the extra details. In fact, while there is no burden, there will be fewer tears. The rhythm of the film was really slow at the beginning, with too much narration and foreshadowing, and it continued to speed up in the middle part, and finally stopped abruptly, very neat. The episode that made me nervous was about fifteen minutes before Chris Pine's leg was crushed to the point of the viaduct. I couldn't help sitting up straight, clenching my fists, worried for the two male protagonists. Off topic, there are people among the moviegoers in the same show. From the beginning of the screening to the eve of the end, they have been enjoying themselves, laughing, and being able to capture this kind of mentality from a disaster movie is a real state, deep. admiration.

It can be seen from the movie that the director is full of expectations and hopes for life. He is a relative optimist. Under his creation, the media, businessmen, small people, officials and all the citizens have become very warm and cohesive. At the same time, material interests are discussed, but in the second half, only unified feelings are left.
