The second installment in the series, still written and directed by James DeMonaco, shifts the focus of the story from affluent areas to densely populated urban centers, where the nation faces 12 on a day of killing. How will most of the low- and middle-income earners living in the heart of the city spend this crazy night when they are almost completely out of control for hours.
Compared with the small-scale conflicts in the relatively remote areas described in the previous work, this film should be regarded as a large-scale battle. In the central area of the city's high-rise buildings, with the fall of night, or in groups, or single-handedly, more What's more, it is a group of people with well-equipped and uniform clothes, driving chariots, relying on advanced equipment and powerful firepower, divided into multiple ways to rampage in the city unscrupulously, seeing whoever destroys who, and frantically harvesting people's lives.
If the focus of the first episode is the middle class living around the city, these people with high salaries, living in bungalows, driving good cars, and brightly dressed people, on this special night, are also huddled at home, Watching the same TV show, the same non-stop shudder at the attack. When it comes to the sequel, the director did not choose to continue to follow up on the family in the first episode, but shifted his perspective and aimed at the two ends of society, one is the extremely luxurious so-called upper class, and the other is the so-called upper class. It is the most ordinary working class like a mustard. On this day, most ordinary people choose to stay at home, pray for danger away, or simply take up arms and take to the streets, recklessly release their anger and dissatisfaction, carry out their long-planned revenge, or take whatever they foresee. With a mad sweep, in an instant, he either beat the opponent into a beehive, or splattered his own blood for five steps. In a world where he could not see the future, he chose to have a good time. On the other hand, the camera swept the crowd at the top of the pyramid in the society, choosing a way to spend the night, using the money in hand to buy people's lives, while shouting God bless America, while expressing loyalty to the so-called new founding fathers With gratitude, while cold-blooded to the "goods" he bought or auctioned, he raised the butcher's knife and muzzle. The auction-like scene in the film is a stark satire on the wealthy and inhumane groups living in this extremely distorted social formation. Of course, with such a deformed and abnormal social situation, some people will naturally be dissatisfied, and will naturally lead to resistance. The resistance army has begun to appear in scale, and has been supported by some people at the bottom. It is estimated that the follow-up good show should revolve around the resistance army.
The whole film centers on a stern man with extraordinary skills who is ready to complete his revenge on the night of killing. He rescues 4 ordinary civilians because of the injustice on the road, and then hides around this night by confronting the 5 people in this group. A series of experiences such as escape, arrest, counterattack, etc., show the various conditions in this city one by one. In the violent clashes of fire and killing, good and evil, the beauty and ugliness of human nature are carried on. A different kind of training.
The last thing to say is that stockbroking should definitely be considered a high-risk business, especially in such a social environment created by this film. The double cause of death remarks with additional lines and texts, indicating that this industry does not seem to be very popular in that country, and it feels that the director of the film or an important person in the production team has been planted in the stock. Big somersault.
With a long beep, a bloody night came to an end. I don't know what the next episode will be. I'm looking forward to it.
