Rather than comparing "Hurricane Rescue" with "Homeland Defense Line", this film review is to use "Hurricane Rescue" to complain about "Homeland Defense Line". The former film was released in 2008, and the latter film was released in 2013, with a difference of seven years. According to the current development speed of film and television, it is really hard to imagine that there will be no action films released in 2013. The new idea can even be said to be a copy of "Hurricane Rescue".
As far as the actors are concerned, after watching "Hurricane Rescue", I have a deep respect for Liam Neeson's father image, although in the film, in order to save his daughter, he caused a lot of problems and took revenge on many people. It seems to be a selfish father, but from the actor's performance, every expression and everything he does can make the audience understand the image of this father. It can be said that it is Liam Neeson's acting skills Impressed the audience and made the audience understand Nissen's behavior from the standpoint of his father. The identity of the agent in the film is to break the family, so when the father gave up his job and wanted to compensate his daughter, the daughter was in danger. The setting of this plot made the characters very successful in performance. The image of the father outside is exuding. Now let's talk about the image of the father in "Home Defense". Although Jason Statham is a very good action type actor, his performance in action is very good, but this is only suitable for Pure action performance, and in this film, the requirements for actors are not only about action, but more about emotional input. In "Home Defense Line", the image of the father seems to be too blunt. "Hurricane Rescue" is more successful than "Home Defense" in the choice of actors. Liam Neeson is more sophisticated than Jason Statham.
After talking about the actors, let's talk about the plot. The plot of "Hurricane Rescue" is more reasonable. It can be said that the daughter was kidnapped while traveling, which started the development of the plot. It is too absurd that the conflict will open the war. It gives the audience a sense of fatigue, and there is no direct conflict between the characters, or even a relationship that is completely unnecessary to explain, but it has become the main antagonist in "Home Defense Line". To be honest, when watching "Home Defense Line", I unconsciously thought of "Hurricane Rescue". For example, when the daughter played by Mario Vidovic was about to die, his father also shot and killed the enemy from behind, which is completely imitating the scene in "Hurricane Rescue".
Objectively speaking, genre films will always have certain similarities, which is inevitable, but the release time of these two films is so long apart, "Home Defense" has no new breakthroughs, most of them are copied, a little The differences are also absurd.
