With the body of a mortal, it is comparable to the gods.

I stumbled across a video explaining the movie on Douyin by chance. At that time, I thought the story was not bad. I wanted to experience the charm of the movie for myself. Feel.

At the beginning of the story, a director of the fire department was caught in the mirror, and then he was sorting out some fire-fighting tools. At this time, we can see that the ordinary tools can no longer be ordinary, and they do not have the black technology we imagined, but just hold these tools. People are fighting against nature, and the director keeps planting anchors and paving the way for us in this film step by step.

For example, on the way to the fire on the mountain, the camera starts to zoom out. Behind the small body is a burning mountain. From a distance, the firefighters walking on the hillside are like watching ants work. Such a visual impact and huge The contrast left a deep impression on my heart. In contrast, the small male protagonist's counter-attack is not so prominent.

In addition to relying on visual impact, the ordinary but popular daily work atmosphere is also a major reason for you to enter the play. Obviously you don't know them, but seeing them chatting and joking with each other seems normal, and you can even integrate into them. After all, these are brothers who were born and died together, not a family is better than a family.

The director seems to think that there are more important things behind the work, so he left half of the film to the life of firefighters. The work and life are both blooming, which is really good. The embarrassment of the two macho men being fathers for the first time. The whole fire brigade promotion meeting will hold a party, and everyone will shout to their families to be happy together and tell us the importance of family members. The disharmony in the competent family, from intolerable to mutual tolerance, these episodes present a complete fire brigade.

The previous small fight is over, and the director used all his clenching strength in the last twenty minutes. Disasters always come suddenly, and disasters always break from the happy and harmonious atmosphere. The most powerful film has ever appeared. Fire, when the supervisor said that the deployment was about to begin, my heart was already gripped. Everyone knew that it was a near-death struggle, and it was a futile struggle, and the other little male protagonist of the camera really interprets my performance in front of the camera, Nervous and overwhelmed. When the little male protagonist lost control in the car, this was the second time I cried, and when the young male protagonist walked into the gym to face those family members, it was the third time I cried.

The director not only handled the picture and details in place, but the bgm of the film was also very well coordinated, the slow-motion sound of the helicopter, the silence of the gym, and so on.

The film reminds us all the time that the incomparably ferocious natural disasters and mountain fires are all of us mortals, who are bravely rushing to the front line to serve the country and the people.

    The Liangshan firefighters came here specially after the accident. I hope that China can also make such a film to let more people know about such a thing.

    Different from other disaster films, this one is not about the greatness of human beings, but about the insignificance of human beings and the terrifying nature of nature. No matter how powerful human beings are, they are powerless to face this kind of disaster.
