The following comments only represent personal opinions, if the writing is poor, please advise.

As one of Johnson's 18-year-old trilogy, "Sky Rescue" is indeed a cool movie. It is not the kind of in-depth movie, but a popcorn movie with shocking special effects scenes and action scenes.

Sawyer, played by Johnson, is a former FBI hostage rescue team member who lost a leg during a mission, and his family of four have settled in Hong Kong ten years later. Hong Kong's big boss Zhao Longji built the world's tallest skyscraper, the Pearl Tower, and Johnson, as the safety consultant for the 3,000-foot-tall building, became the first and only resident of the high-rise building of the Pearl Tower. Because Boss Zhao has a handle on a world-class criminal gang, the villain, Botha, did not hesitate to burn the Pearl Tower, which had not been fully opened, in order to steal the USB flash drive in the hands of Boss Zhao, and Johnson's family was also held hostage by Botha. In the end, the villain was solved, and Johnson and others were rescued.

The special effects scenes in the film are still very good. The more than 100 mirrors in the top floor of the Pearl Tower (which Boss Zhao calls heaven) were really good. In the end, Johnson and Boss Zhao were able to counterattack these mirrors. But my personal favorite is that there are 8K cameras inside and outside of heaven, which can make the surrounding transparent. When watching Johnson and Boss Zhao standing at an altitude of 3,000 feet, the picture is really comfortable and can really give People have a feeling of heaven. In addition to this, there are many good special effects scenes, so I won't introduce them much. I originally thought that the special effects of such a movie would not be too amazing, but I didn't expect the special effects to be very good. Because the story in the movie takes place in Hong Kong, a lot of Chinese elements are also added, the most typical of which should be the giant panda. Chinese actor Kun Ling doesn't have many roles in the film, but her role as the female killer is really in place and impressive enough. The action scenes and fight scenes in the film are really good. When it comes to action scenes, I want to talk about the scene where Johnson jumped from the tower crane into the building. It reminds me of Tom's amazing scene in Mission: Impossible 6 Leap, what I want to complain about is that in the play, Johnson can jump so far with a prosthetic leg. When Tom finds out, is he going to cry and faint in the toilet.

I think the personal heroism in this play is a bit too serious, in the play Johnson has a prosthetic leg, but he can still jump into the building and climb on the surface of the building (which reminds me of Tom in "Mission Impossible" again Brother climbed the Dubai building), and finally defeated a group of villains, such a setting makes people feel that Johnson has been superheroized. Then there are a few places where I can't help but want to complain. Boss Zhao was too calm when the fire was slowly burning up; at the end, the tablet that controlled the building's security system was shut down and restarted, and it was cracked. , I really can't say it, it's a bit bad anyway; and the Hong Kong police in the play are too rubbish, except for the helicopter to pick up Johnson and others at the end, other times they are in the building all the time Looking down, even news reporters can live on a plane at high altitude. Except for the police to finally bring out Boss Zhao and Johnson, other times they are just a group of people eating melons, watching from below and doing nothing. But the good thing is that the theme of home is relatively prominent, and Johnson has always been desperate for his family.

Overall, this movie is a pretty good popcorn movie.
