Following "The Fall of the White House", action films began to target landmark cities. "Paris Crisis" is such a work. In terms of content, although the film has exposed the dark side, it only This leaves the film still stuck in the hierarchy of a Hollywood entertainment popcorn, making it difficult for Paris to experience a crisis.
The reversal of personal heroism is the main theme of "Paris Crisis" that has not changed, but it has to be said that the film uses eye-catching action plots such as roof chase, carriage struggle, riots, etc., in a standard movie length, at least there are There is no sloppy refinement, which shows that the director's control of the overall rhythm is still pertinent, but if you compare it with blockbusters such as "The Fast and the Furious" and "Bourne Bourne", then "Paris Crisis" is obviously not good enough. Too much heat.
It is not difficult to see from the finished film that "Paris Crisis" is not a high-cost film work, so in a situation where the action can only be regarded as unsatisfactory, the plot is actually particularly important, but unfortunately, the film did not "Crisis" has put a lot of effort into it, whether it is the blackening of the police or the focus on refugees, it has only become a green leaf that highlights heroism. From the use of the wrong partners to advance the plot, it can be seen that this is It's just a continuation of an old stalk in Paris that has been used by Hollywood. Except for the different scenery, people can't see its own admirable inner depth.
In fact, this film made by a British director in France is not necessary. Following the already used Hollywood routine, how to combine the city and action to create an alternative classic such as "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" is what the audience really wants to see, and from director James Watt. Another excellent work of Kings, "Eden Lake", can also be seen that it is not without such ability, but when making this film, his thinking rested on how to make a good action film, but In fact, this approach just slides the film into the embarrassment of cookie-cutter.
Constrained by the cost, "Paris Crisis" has never played a stunning crisis in terms of visual perception, and the crisis in literary drama also lacks powerful depth, and it is only a mediocre work that does not live up to its name.
