The sensory experience of listening to the film is very cold, with the calm and wide-ranging aerial shots of "God's perspective", the cold and monotonous soundtrack drums, and the cold and sharp shots. The bleakness of the desert on the US-Mexico border was ignited by the violence of the powder keg and the fire of the fate of the characters.
The opening scene of the hostage rescue operation. It's smooth and flat, and it doesn't rely on montage to quickly edit the atmosphere. From breaking the door to discovering dozens of corpses in the wall, in one go. Calm like a documentary or body cam footage. But it makes people shudder, and the explosion is brutal.
The scene of the cross-border motorcade escorting the drug dealers is even more smooth. Pick up the person and leave, stop and stand on guard, if there is a change, the opponent will be destroyed in seconds. Not beeping and arguing, it is more burning than the gorgeous car chases and gun battles in the genre films.
The revenge scene between drug dealers at the end of the film should be a climax. However, there is no conflict, twists and turns, and sonorous lines in a "frigid" manner; there is no slow-motion of white pigeons flying holy highlights and double guns moving; there is no so-called morality and forgiveness of "wives and children". Killed all the way, only one shot. The rhythm of the cold and agile is the burning flame of revenge and the next cycle of grievances and grievances.
The character setting in the film is also cold and burning. FBI female, with a passionate sense of legal justice, pure and fiery hatred of hatred. But the fact that she was only a background in the action, and the fact that even the legitimacy of the action itself was denied made her disheartened; a drug dealer consultant, cool and calm. Focusing on the target, the means are neat, and the fire of revenge burns deeply and vigorously; Good use of resources can not only unite and inspire justice women, but also manipulate and encourage drug dealer consultants. The cool world view and cold methodology of "flip-flops" constitute the theme of the film. As long as the problem is solved effectively and at a high rate, one can do whatever it takes, and can walk in the gray area... Just like before the raid on the tunnel in the film, the back of the team is reflected like a silhouette in the background of the burning sunset. Attack in the dark.
There is no difference between enemy and me, good and evil are the same - complex fate, all dance and struggle in the song of ice and fire.
