Trivial greatness - in the face of disaster

It is also a sci-fi film about fighting aliens, and the ending is also perfect and successfully countered. The old film in 1996 was recommended by a friend. In addition to the strong sense of the scene, I also want to say that when it falls into a disaster , Lao Mei's emotional expression made me sigh, and even the patriotic propaganda that made my ears callous, in just a few speeches by the president, made me high-five and applaud. I have to say that even after ten years, even after my eyes have been trained more and more by science fiction films, I am still deeply shocked by watching this old movie.

Replaying the movie in my mind, it seems that everyone is the protagonist, and whoever has it is not the protagonist. Everyone can draw a love line, lover, parents, children. . . And in the face of the disaster, the courage and American humor shown by everyone is not sensational, but it is also sad. The first lady is lying on the hospital bed with her young daughter in her arms; the wife of a black officer is holding her child. With the dog, huddled in the corner, the scientist rushed to the White House to meet his beloved ex-wife. . . These may only appear so precious at the most difficult times. Human nature is not the most beautiful, but it can be described better.

Since I watched "2012" before, it's hard for me not to associate it, and it's also almost destroyed. It seems that this film only has a positive description or at least accounts for the majority of the proportion. The Stars and Stripes of the United States steal the spotlight from time to time, and the fire of patriotism Too blatant burning, because I am too allergic to the main theme of the Celestial Dynasty, so I can only give this film four stars.

In addition, maybe because the weather is too hot to calm down, I think the narrative at the beginning is a bit too long, like a aunt on the street, but it is still a good thing.

Regarding the shape of the alien, to be honest, I am looking forward to a new one, but it still does not exceed the big-eyed, deformed-headed, and high-spirited image of the old man. When the alian in the play said no peace, I I thought, really is a stubborn terrorist. ╮(╯_╰)╭

If it were ten years ago, I would have given this piece ten stars, thinking that it was still a red scarf with blood.
