Five minutes from the beginning of the Ash Duan South movie, when Chris played by Mark Wahlberg talked about his smuggling story many years ago at the wedding of an old friend At that time, I believe that many viewers who have experience watching Hollywood crime dramas have guessed that Chris will have to vote for us in the next movie. Although the expected plot setting of this type of film sounds nothing new, the logical "big scene" is still worth watching. Besides, "British Rose" Kate Beckinsale has already appeared.
Speaking of genre tablets. As early as 2003, "Stealing the Sky" starring Mark Wahlberg and the "Hollywood Venus" Charlize Theron and Edward Norton was a movie about "the last vote". You can enjoy life's crime drama. Similarly, at the beginning of the movie, the "last" action was declared a failure with the death of Donald Sutherland's elder John, and Wahlberg finally finished the final vote. Obviously, this kind of plot setting has many similarities with "Contraband", except for the "hero" Mark Wahlberg unchanged, the beauty in the movie is replaced by Kate Beckinsale. Long, and Ben Foster takes over Edward Norton, the brother who betrayed his friendship because of his interests. Therefore, "Embarrassed Goods" is still a well-done, old-fashioned crime drama after all.
In the film industry in the United States and even Europe, crime dramas are a very common and mature genre. The reason why Hollywood is constantly copying its American characteristics of "personal heroism" under the theme, the story lacks imaginative crime genre, is because many fans need this kind of electric light and flint like entertainment of heroes and beauties. For example, since the birth of the 007 series of films in the 1960s, more than 20 films have been made, but there are generations of new Bonds and Bond girls going on to meet the supply and demand in the film market.
Moreover, the tastes of the audience always need to be adjusted. Therefore, even fans who can see through this type of film with no degree of reading will use this "Prohibited Goods" to change their minds in a leisure time. After all, it is a kind of audiovisual entertainment to enjoy the excitement.
Although "Prohibited Goods" is a genre produced by the Hollywood assembly line, the film has a new identity as a remake. "Prohibited Items" is a remake of the 2008 Icelandic film "Reykjavik-Rotterdam" and directed by Batasa Komaku, who is also the producer and actor in the original film. It must be this special experience that made Komaku more aware of the plot and rhythm of the film and the choice of actors. Therefore, the whole film looks tight and tight, and Wahlberg's performance with the temperament of a low-level community character is also very suitable for his role as a smuggler in the film.
When seeing that Chris was forced to go to the hinterland of the local criminal gang in Panama to get the goods (counterfeit bills), and the cash for the goods was taken away by his brother-in-law Andy, the audience would feel that Chris put himself in In real dangers and impossible tasks. And such a thrilling story can only appear in such a Hollywood blockbuster, fortunately we are willing to make a false alarm for him.
