The restart button was unsuccessful

Speaking of spies in movies, we usually think of 007, Mission: Impossible, and The Bourne Series. In fact, there should be many old movie fans who remember an American spy named "Jackline". If you forget, then "Hunting" You must remember the four works of "Kill Red October", "Patriot Game", "Browsing Pursuit" and "Shocking Nuclear Network", yes, this person is the protagonist. Different from the spy spies in front of him, Jack Klein is an ordinary person, very ordinary, he can't pick up planes, disguise himself, he doesn't have shoes to make phone calls or missile cars, and he doesn't have the fighting skills of one-to-ten. Just relying on patriotic blood and professional knowledge to fight against all kinds of enemies, since the background of this character born out of Tom Clancy's novel is the post-Cold War period, so when restarting the series, it also faces a like The same problem with the 007 series and the spy film series is how to rewrite a story about spy wars in the context of world peace. Both 007 and spy film are aimed at the topic of counter-terrorism in the "post-911 era". Naturally , this "Triggered" is no exception.

The film is titled "Economic Attack" and tells about the game between the Soviet Union and the United States. According to Hollywood's practice, in terms of personality, Yankees are far superior in terms of IQ, system, equipment management, and interpersonal relationships. The Russian guy, the male protagonist who opened the plug-in and the villain with moving IQ, this film is also without exception, all copied.

We often say that Hollywood's system is so powerful that the production line is unified, and the quality is guaranteed to pass. In fact, most of the spy movies in the past are based on the standard Hollywood-style script structure, that is, the recent 007 The series hired directors such as Sam Mendes who are more literary than commercial, which makes it a bit nondescript. If you look at the popularity of Mission Impossible, you should understand that the innovation of spy genre films is a worldwide problem. Before finding a new path, take the The old road is undoubtedly the safest, and this film made a principled mistake on "going the old road or finding a new way".

The mistakes on the route and the flaws in the script are too obvious to make this film disastrous. The first half of the film hoards a lot of literary dramas trying to portray the characters, explain the background of the story, and deliberately drag all the action blasting scenes to the last 20 minutes. The audience, the style of painting, and the sudden change in rhythm make the audience unbearable. If you follow the old way, the interweaving of literary and action dramas will all have routines. When the audience is peeing, when will you increase your adrenaline, There are a lot of these. Blindly looking for another way is not a good solution to the problem. Fans who are familiar with the Cold War and the post-Cold War period can see that this is nothing more than a counter-terrorism film based on "Cold War thinking". It is a new character, new story, and new atmosphere. In fact, it is still talking about the little things between the Soviet Union and the United States. In the international environment, the surface is harmonious, but the reality is undercurrent and turbulent. The narrative structure is seriously inconsistent before and after, and the strong sense of separation makes this reboot an embarrassing situation.

As for the bugs in the plot, I think it's better to ignore them. If you are obsessed with this point, then don't watch any heroic movies. Do you think that after a spinal injury like that, you can still go to the sky and save the world? you think too much...
