real disaster

This is another film based on reality, and the restoration is so high that it is staggering. In order to shoot the oil well "Deep Sea Horizon" in the film, the crew built a real oil well in Chalmette, Louisiana. The authenticity of the restoration amazes the oil workers, and the oil well built by the crew is considered to be the largest stage set prop.

The plot restores to the greatest extent the worst oil well leakage accident in American history. The recording at the beginning of the film is based on the interrogation a few days after the disaster.

The loss caused by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 was not only the lives of 11 people and the settlement amount of tens of billions, but also caused the death of 6,104 birds, 609 turtles, and 100 mammals including dolphins. even extinct. Of course, the story told in "Deep Sea Catastrophe" is based on the perspective of human nature, and it is also a competition between rigorous security awareness and capital maximization in the face of interests. For the damage to species and the environment, only through the 57 minutes that the oily bird flew into the supply ship Bankstown, rammed left and right, struggled with all its strength, and then the picture of death was presented.

After watching the film, although I lack professional knowledge in oil extraction, it does not affect my inclusion in the "good disaster film".

First, the cast and crew of the film. The male protagonist Mark Wahlberg joined with strength. His wonderful performances in "Transformers 4", "Life and Death" and "Teddy Bear" impressed the audience deeply. In this film, he gave me a kind of The temperament of ordinary people around me naturally brought me to the character he played. In the film, before the disaster, he also showed the powerlessness and courage of an ordinary person.

At the same time, there is Dylan O'Brien in "Maze Runner", who showed extraordinary strength in "Maze Runner" and was nominated for the 17th Best Action Movie Actor at the Teen Choice Awards. . In this film, he made my eyes shine as soon as he appeared. Not only is his appearance online, but he is also humorous and not vulgar. He also won the "Most Anticipated Actor" in the 18th American Teen Choice Awards. This award is enough Explain Dylan's good performance in the film. Since I am a little bit blind to foreigners, I would like to remind everyone why he went to the oil well with a full scholarship to the University of Texas School of Architecture, because he did not listen to his mother! ~

And the old drama bone Kurt Russell and John Malkovich on the same stage, add color to the film.

Golden Globe Award Best Actress Gina Rodriguez and Kate Hudson also showed wonderful acting skills, which contributed to the film's achievements.

Secondly, in terms of the special effects of this movie, the impression is that it is "magnificent and real". From the first small blowout to the second big blowout, and then to the big explosion caused by the combustible gas, the fire is soaring, the picture is extremely exciting. For many audiences who only pursue special effects scenes, the quality of the storyline is not the first priority. They just want a simple and easy-to-understand story as the basis, because what they need is relaxation. In this case, the special effects of this movie will be Enough to meet the needs of this part of the audience.

Also worth noting is the addition of the "documentary image" part at the beginning and end of the film, which is expressed in such a way as Mike Williams (the prototype played by Mark Wahlberg) said, "It's about shooting like this. It's the best way to do it." So the whole film cannot be judged on the basis of whether it is wonderful or not. The "authenticity" performance of the film seems to restore the tragic atmosphere of the year, but this is actually its more attractive and unique feature.

The film just pays tribute to the victims of the disaster in such a way, to remind and warn everyone: when pursuing the economy, don't forget the safety of human beings and the protection of the environment. Behind many disasters, there are "man-made disasters" implied, people's excessive attention to economic interests, some people's blind and narrow pursuit of something, while ignoring many more important things.

More exciting is still in the film, you should enjoy it yourself.
