The background introduction of the first hour is really maddening! ! ! Outrageous! ! ! ! A place that is too poor to die, a group of people who have nothing to do, the plot is completely in the introduction of the characters. The point is black and white. I can see it because my obsessive-compulsive disorder is terminally ill.
In short, the film could have started with the fire, starting with the need for four daredevils to deliver the nitroglycerin, rather than going into a long journey after grinding the audience's patience.
Isn't the shipping process scary? Of course, it is thrilling, the road sections that need to be passed at high speed, the collapsed planks, the stones blocking the road, the dirty quagmire... But this process, all have the same background - "driving a truck", all we can see is the driver holding the steering wheel , Sweat on my face... Thrilling, life-threatening, life-and-death, life-threatening... The danger that needs to be expressed is limited to a certain extent because of a single environment and means of expression. The fear I can feel has already been It is "out of reach". Because of the lack of dangerous expression, the fear that can be felt is limited, and finally directly affects the expressiveness of the theme. Because for this film, the deeper the fear, the more shocking the contrast with the ending. This lack of "strength" is hard to say because of technical constraints or the limited level of directors.
The lengthy and lack of strength makes the shock of the film drop two grades.
I am satisfied with the ending. When the male protagonist drove his truck back, he passed through the same quagmire and rushed through the same quagmire, splashing huge splashes of water. Compared with the cautious, sacrificing one's life, and going through untold hardships when he left, Create enough contrast, the intensity of its irony and alertness, it has reached the level of five stars.
Therefore, it is very regrettable. Whether it's a movie or a male protagonist.
What makes us fail is usually not the real difficulty, but the cowardice that is afraid of the difficulty so that we don't dare to go on the road, and the complacency after a small achievement.
Share with you.
