Because people have been comparing it to Operation Red Sea recently, I specifically looked for it. Compared with the latter, the Black Hawk is more real, whether it is the portrayal of the various characters of the U.S. military or the characterization of the locals and militiamen, and the panic, fear, helplessness, and mistakes of various characters when participating in the war are all. Show that they are normal people. I watched the Red Sea first. In comparison, I am obviously a little unhappy with the rhythm of Black Hawk. Red is the climax from the beginning, and Black is the usual American movie rhythm. First, I must have a more detailed account of the characters in the environment and time, and even Makes you feel verbose. The lack of red lies in the realism of the characters. After reading it, I am very confused about the distinction between the characters. The dialogue between the characters is more of a task exchange. It feels like a war machine without personal emotions.

Black Hawk is about rescuing comrades in arms, while Red Sea is about rescuing compatriots and hostages.

Operation Red Sea was an overall success, and the Black Hawk Down was an overall lost war.

After watching both films, as an ordinary person (non-military enthusiast), I still think Red Sea is better, after all, it is about the Chinese army, and the audiovisual effects are trying to satisfy me from beginning to end, I guess Most of the audience, like me, don't know the real story background of the Red Sea and the story background of Black Hawk at all. We only know from the movie itself, so we won't be as picky about details as some military enthusiasts. We are ordinary "face control". "The audience, the sense of picture is definitely better than the Red Sea in the post-shoot.

However, after watching Black Hawk, people will feel the cruelty of war, the fragility of human beings, and the complexity of human hearts. After watching the Red Sea, what I remember more is the fearlessness of the hero. Obviously, looking deeper, we find the former to be more meaningful and the latter to be a little superficial.

In any case, these two films are worth watching, and both have a certain social value, but for the people of the country, the value orientation is different.
