Do what you do best - what it feels like to watch this movie. Woo Yusen, who grew up in the small area of ​​Hong Kong, used the violent aesthetics of Hong Kong streets with endless bullets, slow-motion flying in the air, and fireworks like fireworks. The fight seemed exhausted. The jungle scenes lack credibility, the big-scheduling war is on the verge of getting out of control, the high-profile patriotism is insufficient, and even Nicolas Cage's deeply melancholy brows often wrinkle can't be linked to the battle-hardened Marines. Come.
If you look back and think about Michael Bay, think about Spielberg, think about Wolfgang Peterson, you will know the stupidity of letting John Woo direct this film. On this point, it is not up to Director Wu, it is the decision of the film company. mistake. This also directly led to the reorganization of Paramount, which had lost everything because of the film, and MGM was merged.

    To be honest, this is a pretty good film, with a unique perspective to protect the alternative friendship of a wind whisperer, and a unique technique. Wu Yusen used the method of shooting police and gangsters to shoot war films, which actually has a different momentum and feeling. It is a pity.

    A "Bloodblood" between Native American intelligence agents and American bodyguards. Want to make a war movie into a river and lake movie? You are thinking too simplistically about racial discrimination in the United States, and it is still the first year after 9/11. No, the box office failed, John Woo
