how to win

When watching this kind of film, there is often a kind of psychological suggestion: it’s okay to encounter difficulties, anyway, the protagonist will win and not die. The question is how to win, how to win? At the beginning of the film, a confined space is created: the aircraft cabin, this environment is a headache, the fighting cannot be performed, and the fighting will always talk and plot.

When Cage first appeared on the plane, I had expectations. I thought, he would stand with this anti-drug police officer, and the two of them turned the whole scene. As a result, Cage said a few words, the police hung up... Maybe he had other plans, I thought.

After ten minutes, I found that I was thinking too much. This big brother is just an ordinary big brother. He didn't want to defeat the evil, but just followed the situation. When he got off the plane, his purpose was just to help the black brother find the syringe... Seeing that the two sides were fighting fiercely, he didn't rush out, he just stopped the plane with a rope.

There is almost no scene in the whole film where I want to see the kind of Cage male protagonist's full aura and happy battle. He has no superhuman intelligence, no plans, just a good physique. Strange and not strange, the strange thing is that he doesn't have the same righteous heart as the wolf warrior, and he is hard-headed. No wonder this is normal, he's not superman.

John Cusack's role was set as Wei Guangzheng, and he took away part of the light, but he was still immature at the time, adding a lot of superfluous expressions, which made the policeman a little greasy. On the contrary, Cage's role is a little more sad. Why did God give this strong man such a pair of eyes?

The head and tail are tacky, of course, but not bad either. It's a pity that the Spanish in Cage Prison Middle School seems to be only used to understand the conversation of the rapist? Thought it would be of great use.

When the film was released 20 years ago, the felon who killed more than 30 people may still be a bright spot, but now there are too many "special" characters, but they are not very attractive. (But to be honest, I just watched this film for this actor) But Cage's uncomplicated and sublime role is nostalgic, especially after watching domestic mainstream films. And the film also quotes Dostoevsky's famous quote.

The last thing I want to say is that in this film, Cage's upper limbs are too well trained, with melancholy eyes, a strong body, and long legs... How did Cage become the king of bad movies.

    A movie highly recommended by someone naturally has its reasons. I love this typical American personal heroism movie. Cage's muscles and his small eyes are so fascinating that he won't cry at the end!

    This OST is too bad! Shengsheng turned the film into a clichéd film.
