The ills of contemporary cinema as seen in "True Lies"

True Lies, 5 points from James Cameron's work, is a good popcorn movie to watch now. Although the plot is a bit cliché from the current point of view, it is not embarrassing at all, and it has a certain appeal. Good works really won't be outdated because of the times. Now this routine is blooming everywhere, so what? The works that were shot are not as attractive as those from 20 years ago. It is really important to be serious. If every popcorn pops Films are just fine. The female protagonist really knelt down ps: Talk about seriousness. Take "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" as an example. In order to get the treasures of the South China Sea, the protagonist took a boat to the South China Sea, and a few people fell into it under the blow of a wind and waves. Go to the sea and find treasure by accident. This is the overall context of the story. Now many people can make up such a story, but only "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is so good, because it shows the details of the characters. When the protagonist and others are fighting against the wind and waves, although everyone knows them It must be hard to fight against the wind and waves, and will be photographed into the water, but the plot and details of the fight against the wind and waves are very specific, and many times it can give people a sense that they may really overcome the wind and waves, and the hidden point of this story is elsewhere, The illusion that the treasure is not under the sea. If you start with a generic story outline, even readers and audiences can describe it in a very specific way, which is why there are so many directors now. Learning from other people's outlines has set up various levels, but these levels are not practical at all. People pass this level easily or show that people are very tired to pass these levels. In fact, people don't spend any energy, and the director himself can't do it. Thrilling, empathy, not to mention the audience, for example, the current "Flying Life" is such a negative teaching material. If you use some of your own details and the descriptions are in place, commercial films will achieve very good results, but unfortunately most of the big directors are degenerating now.

    I remember watching this movie, the AV-8B vertical take-off and landing fighter piloted by the governor shocked us, and the US imperialism has such an artifact. In the 1980s, the purchase price of the AV-8B was $23 million, while the full price of the F-14 Grumman Tomcat was only $30 million.

    The consequence of treating the other party as illiterate is that in December 2001, the Green Berets were really hunting down the Taliban on horseback.

True Lies quotes

  • Simon: [hitting on a woman at the party] Here, let me pour you some more champaigne. I gotta keep up the waiter bit, these stakeouts can be a little tricky you know, you never know if things can explode to a life or death situation, just stay low and I'll contact you later. Maybe you should give me your tele...

    Harry: [puts his hand in Simon] So, we meet again Carlos.

    Helen Tasker: [puts her lipstick case under Simon's chin] Honey, I'm gonna do him right here.

    Harry: [proudly] Go for it.

    Simon: Oh god.

    [pees in his pants]

    Helen Tasker: Fear is not an option.

    [Simon runs out of the party nervously screaming]

  • Helen Tasker: [confessing on why she wants to go with Simon to Paris] I wanted to do something outrageous, and it felt really good, to be needed, and to be trusted. It's just there's so much I want to do with this life and it feels that I haven't done any of it. You know, the sand is running out of the hourglass, and I want to look back and say, see, I did that, that was me, I was reckless and I was wild, and I fucking did it.
