The story of the film is about the courage and will of a team of oil workers in the face of the worst man-made disaster in history. The film is adapted from a real event. Due to the lack of human nature and the drive of interest, during a record-breaking drilling operation at Deepwater Horizon Oil Well, an accidental well pressure instability occurred. The pressure impact caused the emergency safety system to fail, which immediately caused a series of explosions. The oil well instantly turned into hell on earth. Because the fire was too strong, the rescue could not be carried out in time, and 126 drilling workers had to be trapped in it...
As a visual blockbuster, the film replicated the terrifying disaster of the deep-sea oil well with great precision. It is said that, in order to truly reproduce and restore the skyrocketing disaster at that time and the smoke filled with gunpowder, the crew built a deep-sea drilling platform in a ratio of 1:1. As a result, the cost of film production is as high as hundreds of millions of dollars. The gluttonous visual feast in the second half of the film fully demonstrates the fierceness, cruelty, misery, and fierceness of the fire. The audience is like being in a sea of ​​flames, hoping with the hope of the characters in the film, despair and despair.
In addition to the delicacy of visual gluttony, the film also shows the beauty of human nature and the preciousness of family affection. For example, the actor played by Marco Wahlberg has a deep affection with his wife and children. The depiction and creation of warmth, the overall dark tone of the film, and the shudder of the catastrophe caused by the lack of human nature, have a little warm taste.
