Hearing someone say Luc Besson in the production team and Jean Reno's name in the cast, immediately do all the prep work, sit quietly and stare at the screen, even though I don't know the title of the movie.

On the night of thunder and lightning, an ancient monastery, where the lightning flashed, blood flowed from the cross. The cultivator shouted in horror, piercing the sky... From the beginning, there was a terrifying and tense atmosphere, and I was at home, and I was a little scared.

The story begins with the investigation into the death of the monastery. After that, people were nailed to death by some kind of sharp weapon in a very short moment. Some were at the airport, some were in the supermarket, some were dismembered by the water, and some had their eyeballs gouged out... Oh my god, it was so appalling, some cameras simply closed their eyes. When the actress appeared, the plot became clear. In fact, it was a treasure hunt under the guise of religion, and a series of pursuits were just to conform to a certain record in the Bible. During the whole process, I felt that the nerves in my whole body were tense, and I was not afraid of the tense rhythm. I was afraid of the bloody scene. At the end, the leader finally found the treasure and moved it out from the altar, thus triggering the mechanism, the flood roared, and the leader pulled his gun and committed suicide. Seeing this, I laughed. This kind of scene is too familiar. Many treasure hunt movies always end up like this, just like the war movies I watched when I was a child, the heroes always have to pay their party dues when they die. It's just that when I see a similar ending, I always think, it's a pity that those treasures have been ruined by the writers and directors~~

Jean Reno, I have seen his "Shut Up, You". But the highlight inside is not Jean Reno, but the "steel egg" in it, Depardieu. With an innocent face and chattering endlessly, people really can't help but like him and think he's annoying and cute. In these two films, Jean Reno always maintained a stern face and stern smile. I am ashamed that such a world-class actor could not find his brilliance.
