The impact on the heart is superfluous to the senses. Even if I watch it for the second time after many years, it has not weakened the sense of influence and calling. The torture of war. When Aisha took Xiao Lizi to see her sister, you can clearly see the anger under her sister's restraint, the anger towards the Iraq war, and the anger towards a powerful country. The torture of humanity. Does trust really exist between people, between superiors and subordinates, allies? The last time Xiao Lizi went to exchange hostages, when he was dragged into the car by the jihadists, the boss just said a weak sorry. In the end, it was the Jordanian local intelligence bureau, whom his boss had never trusted, who rescued him. Indeed, everything was just a design, even the exchange of hostages was a design, and at least this step of rescue was designed in the design. Perhaps this is not only a satire of certain forms, systems, and methods, but also some reflections.
The torture of religion. One after another suicide bombings, the harm to innocent poor people, the wanton trampling of lives, and the intolerance of all infidels, yet they have to be called "jihad". The name itself is a great irony. Religion is supposed to give the soul a place to rest and teach people to be good. When it comes to slaughter against dissent and reduction to a weapon of lust and political control, there is only a religious shell.
Some people say that the romantic scenes in the film spoil the atmosphere of anti-terrorist films. I don't agree with them. Instead, it is a warm color, which appears calm and simple amid the chaotic explosions and complex intelligence wars. People are complex, and intelligence agents as complex as CIA also have a heart that yearns for beauty and love. Who can't understand.
Of course, the feelings about the film are much more than this, but I choose some to share. The feeling of watching a movie is still very subjective, and maybe you will have a completely different feeling. Anyway, it's worth a look.
