It should be the first time to watch this kind of war movie with nuclear submarine as the main carrier, but after watching it, I think it is a standard commercial war movie.
This kind of film is actually not very easy to shoot. In business, because there are about 1/3 of the content, I didn't see it very clearly, because it involves relatively strict military discipline orders and some code of conduct;
Moreover, the temporality and spatiality of the narrative scope are relatively narrow, and they all take place basically inside the nuclear submarine. There is not a single woman in the whole story, and the main characters are absolutely dominated by male characters;
The ending of the story is obvious, because this is not an imaginary plot, it is a story created on the basis of reality, so the audience can already know his ending, and it will not trigger the world and war.
The limitations of so many objective conditions also make the audience feel good-looking, and it is very dependent on the solidity of the script and the performance of the actors.
The plot uses very good commercialization skills to promote the development of the plot. In a small space, the three mutinies have made the contradiction between the two protagonists progressive, and the tension between the two protagonists is also more imposing. , and the point of their conflict is that they all stand at the level of the country, the world, and the people, which undoubtedly enhances the height of the connotation of the entire script.
Especially in the fierce conflict scene between the two captains, I saw the shadow of "Cold War" many years later. And what I like the most is the description of the two protagonists. Although in some scenes they act as pros and cons of each other, there is no right or wrong from their roles.
The final outcome did not focus on the very macro international issues, but on the individual himself. If we were to shoot, it might be elevated to an international issue at the end, but this movie did not, which is something I appreciate very much.
