I remember that take 1 seems to have been released a long time ago. It seems that it has been 4 years. I never thought that I would make take 2. However, when I saw the big poster in the movie theater, I couldn’t help but pay for it. After all, take 1 brought me There are many surprises. After watching it, I am actually a little disappointed. I feel that the sequel is not good this year, but overall it is worthy of the tickets.

taken This movie actually feels more for movie lovers who like to watch a coherent and tense plot, one shot after another, without letting people breathe at all. This kind of movie can be slightly exaggerated, that is, the so-called The male protagonist can be invincible, moves, escapes, chases cars, etc. can be old-fashioned, as long as it is not too exaggerated, the viewers can accept it, the premise must be very tight and tight, in fact, most of the viewers know the ending, so What's important is the so-called tension. taken 1 This is a good thing. In addition to laying the groundwork, since the disappearance of his daughter, the male host will not be idle for a moment, fighting with all kinds of three religions and nine people, or in gunfights, actions, or language.

Then talk about take 2, No one would care (unless it was a little girl's emotions) at the beginning, but it was actually quite interesting. It was nothing more than the conflict between the agent father Brian and his daughter. Brian gave his daughter to drive, and the friction with his daughter's boyfriend was nothing more than his ex-wife and her The conflict between the current husband, Brian, you are really great, and the ex-wife still cares so much. It has nothing to do with the main plot, but Brian really did it when he found his daughter and boyfriend.

Afterwards, they came to Istanbul, Turkey, saying that the scenery of Istanbul is really beautiful, but for such a compact movie, this kind of scene is not suitable to be honest. On the contrary, it is more suitable for the gloomy scenery that often rains in Europe. What came to Bryan's trouble was the conflict of the people he killed in the first movie, or the father or the old man, the old-fashioned Islamic terrorists and American agents. But the real problem is that the Brian family came to Istanbul. Originally, Brian wanted to take this opportunity to enjoy the family time with his ex-wife and daughter. Unfortunately, God is not good, and they were chased and killed. When they found out, because their ex-wife was arrested , I had no choice but to hand over the gun, and my daughter escaped the first disaster. In fact, it is not so much that her daughter is smart and strong, but more luck. When two terrorists were looking for their daughter, one of them accidentally killed a tenant, and the security police The arrival of the two of them had to leave.

In this way, the burden is placed on my daughter, and from here, the problem arises. From here, I feel a little disappointed. Let’s talk about the plot first. Brian was taken to a place where the terrorists were locked up. It can be imagined here that once he was imprisoned, the presence of his ex-wife would inevitably slow down the pace of the plot. Brian got in touch with his daughter through a micro phone. Ryan guides his daughter to find where they were caught (add, Brian, you are really good, got caught in the car and counted the seconds to judge how much you walked to get there, remember to turn there), called The daughter's participation in the plot is really disappointing, not good-looking, maybe I'm picky. In this way, the daughter found the place where they were locked under the guidance of her father, and threw the pistol from the chimney, thanks to your director's idea. But fortunately, she didn't turn her daughter into the second generation of Brian, otherwise it would be bloody. . . .

After that, Brian got the gun. At this time, Brian chose to save his daughter first, because his daughter was found by terrorists when he handed the gun. After saving his daughter, Brian stole a car, and when he came back, his ex-wife's It was too late, but I was helpless, maybe it was because there were too many characters and there was no way to compress the plot. Hey, Brian had to kill a policeman because the police saw him with a gun, and his daughter's reaction was too small. . . . After that, the police chased Brian, the terrorists chased Brian, and the car chase scene was not bad, but it was a little uncomfortable, that is, the car was driven by the daughter, and the father was talking about guidance. . . This really makes me feel uncomfortable. I am used to seeing the plot of American-style personal heroism. . . After that, the two ran to the USA embassy and were almost shot and killed by the USA embassy. After that, it can be completely guessed. Brian went back and found the terrorists based on his memory, those turns in seconds and some signs, but this is really a bit ridiculous. . In the end Brian rescued his wife.
But in the end, the confrontation between Brian and the terrorist's father was quite interesting. Brian said that if you can let go of your grievances and stop making trouble, Brian agreed to leave directly, and then threw the gun at the terrorist. If the father of the terrorist leader really walked away, the film would probably be scolded to death by everyone, but the director was still acquainted. The terrorist picked up the gun and was about to shoot at Brian. When he found it was empty, Brian killed him. the last terrorist.

The main plot is as I outlined above, the details are not stated. However, this movie is not as good as it once was, mainly because it was originally Brian's one-man show, but now it's the Brian family's acting. The director wanted to make it a little more complicated, but obviously the more complicated it is, the harder it is to make it compact, generally compact. If multiple characters appear in a movie, it still needs to be compact. Generally, montage is the structure. How about one person in one scene, how about another person in another scene, the appearance of this family in more or less slows down the compactness of the film It is obvious that the director is deliberately making the plot tense, but the tasteless plot makes it impossible to compact. In fact, the more reason is that people watch too much about being caught, escaped, and rescued, which may cause more visual fatigue.

But on the whole, fighting, overtaking, and secret agent elements are not bad. The honest tricks of Hollywood, I still want to praise Uncle Liam's hard-working performance, but it would be better if the director could make his ex-wife and daughter disappear as much as possible. I guess the actor who played his daughter and mother would have shot me to death when they saw my comment, ha.

I'm not very good at writing comments, I just wrote it casually, please forgive me if it's useless.
