When I mention the director of this film, Katherine Bigelow, a strong woman, I think of mentioning her last work "The Hurt Locker". I only saw this film in August 2010, and now I have an impression of this film. The deepest is the ending, the alienation of war to people, the whole movie is very boring after watching, Bigelow didn't comment on this war, just let us feel it from the perspective of a soldier, "Hunting Bin Laden" also the same.
The three-minute shady scene at the beginning of the movie is undoubtedly a finishing touch. Without any pictures, only those broken voices and miserable screams bring us back to that dark day in human history. Then the screen jumped directly to two years later, the scene of CIA agents tortured to extract confessions. One third of the money in the movie was basically torture scenes. Every torture tool made people terrified. , felt extremely uncomfortable. And only a small part of what is shown in the movie is far more cruel in the real world than in the movie. This has to make me think about whether this approach is really correct. Aside from humanitarianism, we can really rely on these. Elimination of terrorism, in exchange for peace? The so-called is the retribution of grievances and grievances, when will they be reunited. Even though the lives of more than 3,000 people are deplorable, can we really get the results we want by interrogating these prisoners in this way for several years as one day? My answer is that I don't know how many young children watched their parents get killed when American soldiers entered bin Laden's house and killed his brother. One of the most impressive scenes is that when the US military wanted to determine the identity of the deceased, they took out fluorescent trinkets for the children to play with and asked them their names. This scene all gave people a cold feeling. At this time, Soldiers in the U.S. only know their mission, and others have long ignored it. And one of the children who escaped was the youngest one. This really reminds me of a sentence. Although it is a bit funny to put it here, it is really true when you think about it. One bin Laden died, and thousands of bin Laden stood up again. . The middle part of the film is about collecting intelligence through various informants, and it is also one of the worst attacks in the history of the CIA. Just like its heroine, for these information, she worked for more than ten years as a day, but in the end she got this result. And the last 40 minutes is about the action of Shield of the Sea God. It should be said that this action is just a quick stroke in the film, and its actual significance to the film is not much, so if the audience is watching this film with the psychology of watching action films, it must be will be disappointed.
As for Maya, played by the heroine Jessica Chastain, as a rare woman in the CIA, her attitude towards the dilemma and handling of intelligence is completely different from others. She is careful, she is tougher, in fact, she has Bigelow's projection is there. She also rarely talks about feelings, and there is only one thing in her heart, that is, constant work, work. He was elected to the CIA from high school since he was a teenager. In order to track down bin Laden, he worked hard for 8 years. After bin Laden died, the soldiers were celebrating the victory, and when she got on the plane with only her and the pilot, it was like an empty plane. In the same way, she shed tears. When bin Laden finally died, there was no joy in her heart. I think she was numb at this time, and just like the empty plane, she was also confused. Seeing this scene made me think back to the end of the Hurt Locker, but when Jeremy Renner faced the rows of milk powder in the supermarket, he was completely confused and numb, he was used to work, and he had no sense of life. . And Maya in "Hunting Bin Laden" is the same. We don't know what she will do when she goes back, but there is no doubt that her life has been turned upside down, and she has long since lost touch with normal people. This ending is open-ended, but also feels powerless.
Although bin Laden is dead, we have not won against terrorism, and perhaps we will never win.
