Today we will talk about the movie "Escape from the End".
The title of the film is Greenland (2020), also known as the Doomsday Oasis (Hong Kong) / Countdown to Heaven (Taiwan) / Fall of Greenland / Greenland.
The film is starring Gerard Butler, who has gone wherever he goes.
Gerald Butler didn't go to any famous landmarks this time. He just played the role of a construction worker, Jeff, who cheated on the job every day and went home to tear himself apart. Just because he was staying on the earth, a huge comet went straight to the earth and was about to cause a devastating impact.
In order to continue human civilization, the US government selected a group of engineers and technicians to go to the underground bunker, and those who were not selected stayed on the ground to fend for themselves.
Jeff was lucky to be selected. When his family went to the airport to take refuge, the family encountered various emergencies.
The giant comet that crashed into the earth in "Doomsday Escape" is named "Clark", which is in memory of the late author Arthur C. Clarke.
In 1993, he wrote a novel "Hammer of God" (Hammer of God), which describes the time when an asteroid that destroys earth creatures hit the earth.
Perhaps in view of the effectiveness of the control of the new crown epidemic in the beautiful country in reality, the beautiful country has shot a movie about the doomsday theme to show the country's strong resilience before an apocalyptic disaster.
In the film "Doomsday Escape", the beautiful country not only actively responded to this biological extinction disaster, but also continued the fire of human civilization and made an indelible contribution to rebuilding the earth in the future.
In short, the beautiful country is still the leader of the Blue Star. Regardless of the comet hitting the earth or other disasters, they always feel that they have been able to lead the earth.
The reality is ruthlessly slapped.
"Doomsday Escape" was originally scheduled to be released on August 14, 2020. As a result, the theater did not open, so the film studio gave up its distribution in American theaters and went live directly through pay TV and streaming media.
Like the release process, the filming process of "Doomsday Escape" was also full of twists and turns, and only the main cast and crew changed several times.
In the original plan, the film will be directed by Neill Blomkamp of "District Nine" and "Elysium", and the leading actor will be Chris Evans (Chris Evans) of the United States. Later, both of them withdrew from the filming because of schedule conflicts.
The old man Sam Elliott (Sam Elliott) was originally going to play the role of father-in-law, but the negotiation fell apart when he was about to star, and was finally replaced by Scott Glenn.
"Doomsday Escape" is the second disaster film starring Gerard Butler, and the other is "Global Storm" (Geostorm, 2017).
The other movies that have fallen everywhere are action movies, not disaster movies.
"Doomsday Escape" can be said to be a disaster regardless of the subject matter or content of the film.
The majestic and atmospheric special effects that are common in disaster films are pitiful here. Most of the time in the whole movie, ordinary people are buzzing around like flies without their heads. If you compare the performance of certain countries in the prevention and control of the epidemic in reality, "Doomsday Escape" is more like a realistic film than a fictional disaster film.
In the film, every piece of comet debris enters the atmosphere and uses the same two-sonic explosion sound effect. Listening too much will inevitably be a little tired.
If you want to watch a cool visual effects movie, you will most likely be disappointed when watching "Doomsday Escape".
Because the content of the whole film is really "escape", nothing more. You will deeply appreciate the powerful role of organization. Strength comes from organization is a truth that has been tempered. In an unorganized situation, "zero-dollar purchases" happen everywhere, while in an organized situation, people can instantly enter a new state of equilibrium.
As mentioned in the last sentence of the film, the survivors lived in underground bunker for a full 9 months before the dust on the surface settled and people were able to return to the ground.
In fact, there are many places in the film that cannot withstand scrutiny. A comet that is huge enough to destroy the earth's life is about to crash into the earth. Observers all over the world have misjudged it. This is obviously impossible. With so many countries in the world and so developed information and communications, this kind of news cannot be blocked at all.
The film deliberately reduced the impact escape time to less than a day in order to create an extreme situation of emergency escape. Fundamentally, the film puts the audience in the position of spectators, expecting the audience to watch a film without thinking.
This creates a kind of contradiction. From the setting of the film, the audience wants the audience to watch the film without a brain, and the actual content of the film is not up to the level of a brainless film. As a result, it can only become a bad film.
To insist on the advantage of "Doomsday Escape", it uses realistic techniques to show how vulnerable certain countries are in front of disasters.
The Chosen Son survives at the end,
The doomsday is here.
