George decides to save Lisa...
it's a french action movie with a very Hollywood flair. The first is the structure of the story, and the game is still the "government conspiracy theory": a mercenary government, regardless of the life and death of the people of other countries, adopts the method of black-box trading, and does arms business with the dictator to make a fortune in war. The second is the portraits: the protagonists George and Lisa suddenly fell into a crisis from their normal living conditions, and they were able to save themselves from danger in the face of crisis after death. Finally, there are action scenes. The car chase scenes and fighting scenes throughout the film, whether it is the relaxation of the rhythm or the use of high-speed photography, are typical Hollywood shooting techniques.
Although the style is similar, compared with the same type of Hollywood films, as a French film, this film still has some variations. The first is that the government is more thoroughly corrupt, and the leadership has no good people at all, so it is even more cruel. Their sinful act of intimidating Lisa to kill herself and then committing suicide shows that they do not take their agents as human beings at all. The fate of agents is to be sucked dry and "throw away" by their bosses, and there will never be a day when they will return to ordinary people's lives. . Second, the protagonist is more real. For George, the only reason he is against the government is to save his work partner and sweetheart Lisa, he doesn't care or intend to stop the government's conspiracy (at least the film doesn't show this positively), it's him and Hollywood The biggest difference is those heroes who save people in other countries at every turn. Such a design makes the protagonist not "tall and complete", but it must be admitted that this is the reality.
In addition, Monica Bellucci's performance in this film is very good, playing a secret agent in a state of inner struggle. Especially in a few scenes in the prison, Monica Bellucci has done a good job, portraying the female agent's mental state of being trapped in a cage, helpless, desperate, painful, strong, and vulnerable when threatened. .
