Pass

The main theme/politics/action/counter-terrorism blockbuster will be passed.

Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass, director of the Bourne Shadow series, have collaborated again.

The theme is serious, the rhythm is tight, and the action scenes are hot. Matt Damon plays the squad leader who disregards the orders of his superiors like the lonely hero Jason Bourne on the battlefield in Iraq. But this time he has a bunch of obedient brothers.

The first half is pretty good. The unsmiling and decent protagonist, the unscrupulous villain bureaucrat for political purposes, and the CIA supporting role thorn who is thoroughly questioning and really want to compete with the CIA, the media person who does not know the truth and finally abandoned the dark and casts the light, a successful Hollywood theme commercial film has All the elements of this are all alive. But in the end, the gunfight of the mantis hunting the cicada and the oriole was a bit soft, and the big villain did not explain the end of the game in more detail, and the suspense remained a bit big.

The film was selected as the eighth place among the top ten money-losing movies of 2010 by Forbes.
