Non-American just went to the cinema to watch this film on Saturday, so let me say a few words.

The overall performance of the film is still relatively realistic. The reconstruction of the
scene has a very visual impact, as if the end of the world.
I discussed with my friends why this film has only one star from the beginning to the end. It
is because the actors can only express their lines and eyes.
The beginning of the film 15 In minutes, I can see more than 20 faces
. After 5 minutes, there are 6 left.
After 3 minutes,
there 5 minutes, there are only 2.

The film does not show American-style heroism like traditional American disaster films,
focusing on the encounter between small people. The importance
of family, family, and friendship in disasters The description of the 9/11 disaster is mostly conveyed indirectly through the expressions of the characters rather than explicit footage
. There is not too much criticism of terrorism,
only the image of a retired Marine Corps sergeant. It's uncomfortable to create a somewhat rigid heroism.
Overall , I am quite satisfied with this film.
Cage's performance is in line with the identity of the minor characters in the film. The
only thing praised in his 20-year police career is "You "A tough guy" is nothing more.
In fact , many little people in life are so unknown
. Only at special moments can you find their existence. Several details of the

film also left a deep impression on me
. 1. Bush delivered a speech on the Air One Afterwards, the destination was not disclosed.
This detail shows how disappointed the American people are with the president. In times of crisis, the president cannot be with the people (80% of them flew to a secret military base to save their lives)
2. On the way to the twin towers, the policemen of the Maritime Affairs Bureau heard that the second tower was also hit. Some people said it was fake news, some people thought it was covered by thick smoke so that people could not see clearly, and one person nervously announced "nuclear". The war is about to begin, and the end of the world is coming"... Although all the details are messy and disorderly, they just show the panic and helplessness of people at that time. The most impressive thing in the

whole film is that family and care, in In times of crisis, family and love become the only remaining intentions in people's hearts, and also become the concern of life. This is a relatively mild, lyrical American disaster film that deserves praise!
