Watched the movie "Mumbai Hotel" in the cinema.
I think this film should have the effect that the director wanted. It is very catching and can let the audience watch it until the end. Since it is a movie adapted from real events, I did not watch this movie with the attitude of watching a popcorn movie. However, unfortunately, apart from this, there seems to be nothing else in this movie. The director spends all his energy on creating a compact storyline and creating exciting sensory enjoyment, while ignoring the excavation of human nature. . However, only in these aspects, the director has not been able to achieve perfection. The most serious flaw comes from the section where the mother holds the baby and hides in the cabinet, where the baby does not cry or make trouble, so that the mother and daughter can get through the difficulties-logically, this episode is impossible anyway. Yes, I like to call such plots "sci-fi elements". When this kind of element appears in a realistic movie, it is completely playful. I can understand the director's intention very well, and I express my deep regret. In addition, the most weird thing is that there is a woman walking in high heels. She often clicks on the floor. In such a quiet environment, any small sound may attract the attention of terrorists-in order to round the story, it can only be said that this woman is a "big heart"-isn't this a joke of life? Listening to the sound of high-heeled shoes stepping on the floor, the audience's heart suddenly raised their throats, and at the same time, the unreasonable judgment will bring the audience back to a sane state. Imagine that in a hotel controlled by terrorists, if you don't want to get a headshot, should you be more cautious when fleeing? After all, it is about one's own life and the lives of others. If you are a person, I may not be critical, but you are not alone. Even if one person is stupid, it's impossible for everyone to be stupid, right? Unbelievably, no one actually reminded this woman and asked her to take off her high heels. I had no choice but to use Ah Q's spirit to comfort myself-maybe they were all scared off the line by the terrorists.
There is the movie "Captain Philip" for the hijacking of the ship; the movie "Flight 93" for the hijacking of the plane; the movie "Mumbai Hotel" for the hijacking of the hotel. It is worth mentioning that in the three movies mentioned earlier, the actors playing terrorists are quite realistic.
The police force in Mumbai is so weak that a few hours after the hijacking incident, it is still in the stage of waiting for support and standing by. This also provides space for the movie to play. Playing the cat and mouse trick in a confined space is a magic weapon that the audience will never tire of. Therefore, the director arranged for a few police officers who had never seen the world to form a "Garrison Death Squad", which would enter the hotel to fight the terrorists.
After the movie was over, the subtitles suggested that the mastermind behind it still hadn't caught it. If this happened in the United States, even digging three feet in the ground would destroy this guy. However, this happened in India, so there is nothing wrong with not being able to choose it.
Although the scene of terrorists' mass killings is chilling, what is even more terrifying is that the mind is controlled. These people are both pitiful and hateful. They are puppets, marionettes, and walking corpses that have been brainwashed by the master behind them. A lie will become the truth if it is repeated a thousand times. It is a bit like a pyramid scheme, a cult, and a drug. Once it is caught, it is difficult to get out. I am more interested in the process of terrorists being brainwashed. If this process is made into a movie, it will not be inferior to this movie. They are victims as well as perpetrators. To prevent such incidents from happening again, one should start with the prevention of being brainwashed. As for how to prevent, not to follow the trend, not to follow others, and not to be led by others, it is particularly important to establish a sound independent thinking ability.
