The movie uses a flashback method, first of all that the apprentice was arrested for personal reasons; in reality, the master uses flashback to introduce the experience of the master and apprentice: first the master takes the apprentice into the pit, and then the master and apprentice experience a run-in period-honeymoon period , Broke up due to different beliefs (the apprentice is too idealistic); in the end, the master devotes everything to saving the apprentice. The so-called espionage game refers to the various espionage activities carried out by the master and apprentice, and the other refers to the master's high level of espionage in the rescue of the apprentice and hides the truth from the CIA's top management. Most of the criticism of the film lies in the serious misrepresentation of the status quo of Chinese society, but the flaws do not conceal the advantages. The film can be described as an excellent work of spy war films.
