Knowing the relevant background knowledge may help to better understand the film

In a boring noon, I found this film on my hard drive that I had downloaded for a while but still lay silently under a certain folder. I was very excited about the cast at the beginning, starring the aging Harrison Ford and the teenage Brad Pitt. The feeling at the time was whether this would be a hot action movie, perhaps bringing some visual stimulation to this sleepy noon and helping me drive away my burnout. It turns out that after watching this film, I pressed the delete key on the keyboard without hesitation. Although in the middle of the film, I enthusiastically went to Baidu to search and supplemented the background knowledge about Northern Ireland in this film. Obviously, my efforts didn't work.
While writing this, I suddenly wondered if I had chosen to watch the wrong movie at the wrong time. After all, I have always been patient and watched a movie with an attitude of appreciation.

    I think this movie is pretty good!

    The rivalry of the two movie stars is really good. The emotion between the two characters is very deep, but they can be expressed with just one action and one look, unlike most domestic films, which are only provocative.
