The ending of the film is also quite interesting

Many people think this is an American patriotic movie, but I don't think so. This film has tried its best to satirize American politicians. I don't know why many people haven't seen it. The opening paragraph pointed out that historically, the United States supported the dictatorial king, and it was self-inflicted. The agents also used many lines to complain about the government when they were tasked. Speaking of the end, why do you add a narration from President Carter, especially one that says: "Maintaining the national standards of the United States", just to make the movie more realistic? Actually, it may not be all. During President Carter, a White House security official accused of privately supplying arms to Iran in exchange for the release of hostages was strongly condemned as a move that was against the spirit of the United States. Just imagine how an official would sell arms to himself privately without the president's instructions. Looking for trouble. So violating the American national spirit is a scab on Carter's head. He is most worried about being mentioned by others, so at the end of the movie, there is a feeling that there is no silver here. Although the film puts the Iranian revolutionaries in the position of villains, it is also full of sarcasm for American politicians.
Having said that, although I hate American politicians, I still feel very sympathetic to the embassy hostages, because those people are just carrying out orders The small pawns, the government can save them or sacrifice them, and the film also expresses this aspect. The West is like this, the small pawns can be sacrificed, but if the small pawns are done, they can also become big bosses. The small pawns are needed Sympathetic, the big boss needs to be criticized. So I think the protagonist is the most admirable. His actions have transcended the so-called national, political, duty, and personal honor and disgrace categories. They are purely humanitarian, and fortunately, American politicians Their minds are enough, and at the last minute they know how to see the wind and push the boat along the river, so that things can develop in the direction that is beneficial to the interests of the politicians. This is my opinion. This film is not a simple theme film, no matter the plot or the Screenshots and clips are worth pondering over and over again

    Tony Mendez: Sir, if these people can read or add, pretty soon they're gonna figure out they're six short of a full deck. It's winter. You can't afford to wait around till spring so it's nice enough to take a bike ride. The only way out of that city is the airport.
