"Red Flame Battlefield": Can you still eat at sunset

Honestly, I watched this film for Helen and Bruce. When the queen picks up a submachine gun, it must be cool, not curious about ghosts.

Don't think that Central America is a slender, small, and fragmented place, but the exposure rate in American films is extremely high, especially when it comes to the secrets of the military, and there are often Central American countries. Cuba, Panama, Caribbean island countries, these names are very familiar, this time it's Guatemala's turn. These small countries are like the backyard of the Americans. They are tossing and playing on their own, and they are not sovereign countries at all.

Although Bruce is getting older and older, the beauties that match him are not old. They are always young girls, and they love him very much; also, such a charming uncle should be popular. On the other hand, the other grandparents were obviously a generation higher than Bruce, making him younger. Fortunately, although the film is a special agent film, there are not many action scenes. It is very interesting to see how they are in a hurry but determined. As long as Bruce puts in a little more effort and takes the lead, it will be enough, and the fight against the tough agent will be very powerful.

In terms of plot, there is nothing novel, and it is difficult to reach the level of "Bourne Bourne". But the people who watched the film all came for these old guys, purely to appreciate it, not to mention that a bunch of people came to watch it with curiosity like me. This is somewhat similar to "The Expendables", the plot is riddled with holes, but it is quite enjoyable to watch, because these stars are still performing very hard. As for summoning them to spend a lot of money, that's not something we should consider.

RED quotes

  • Joe Matheson: We're gettin' the band back together.

  • [Frank calls Cooper on the phone; Cooper is told to stall him while the call is traced]

    Frank Moses: Here's the thing, Cooper. With age... comes a certain perspective. I'd be a liar if I said there wasn't a time when I was exactly like you. Blind ambition. Misplaced trust.

    William Cooper: Why are you telling me this?

    Frank Moses: It may help me to decide what to do next.

    Interrogation Surveillance Tech: [technician tracing the call whispering to Cooper] Just keep it going.

    William Cooper: Why? What are you thinking about?

    Frank Moses: Our business is a very hard one. But it was never the, uh... the killing or the stress, the bad pay that bothered me.

    William Cooper: Well, what was it, Frank?

    Frank Moses: It's how anything that you love... can be taken away from you. It taught me never to care. Never to invest. Then I met this woman. Sarah. And now you have her. Now I can't think of anything more horrible than to know that your enemies can hurt someone you love. The feeling is almost indescribable.

    [the trace completes, and the technician hands Cooper a printout]

    Frank Moses: You still there, Cooper?

    William Cooper: [horrified] You're at my house

    [Frank looks out the window into the yard where Cooper's wife and two children, unaware, are playing]

    Frank Moses: Almost indescribable, isn't it?

    William Cooper: [whispering] Please... Please don't hurt my family.

    Frank Moses: If anything happens to Sarah, I will rip everything you love out of your life. And then I'll kill you.
