The reason why Mike in the film is said to be a small person is actually for a reason. This is a small grassroots whose talents have been buried. In fact, he was originally beautiful, and he was the president's personal bodyguard, as well as the "teacher" of the president's son, and the president. The relationship is extraordinary. It's a bit like the emperor and Wei Xiaobao, who play together and fight together. They were originally famous people in front of the president. Unfortunately, an accident caused the president to lose his favorite wife. Common people, committed to the civil service, grassroots Mike felt that he was unable to serve the motherland with his own skills, and he was depressed and unwilling all day long, and began to feel a little messy. He felt that he was particularly unlucky, but it was not his fault. Yes, it is normal for people to be a little depressed after a plummet, and this is the background of this little man Mike.

Fate played a big joke on this little guy. Even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn't imagine that he would regain the president's trust in such a way and return to him. After 9/11, the theme of terrorist attacks became popular. It is such a theme that can create an infinitely amazing scene, which is very enjoyable. On the other hand, such a theme can torture human nature in the face of disaster, and it is very good to describe. The film's grand and imposing air battle scenes, tragic plane shooting scenes, fierce gun battles in the White House, naked hand-to-hand combat with one enemy and a hundred, the White House is riddled with holes, and the ferocity of terrorists. All became a background for a small grassroots to become a big hero. Mike stepped forward at such a critical moment and took the initiative to get involved in such a national catastrophe.

On one side is an extremely well-planned terrorist attack, and on the other side is the symbolic White House of the United States. Although it took only 13 minutes to capture the White House in the film, the director felt that he used a long shooting scene to describe this White House battle. . The White House is not so easy to take down. The terrorists also used all their skills, and this is a group of terrorists with high IQ. Otherwise, they would not even think about entering the fence of the White House. This is the director's contradiction. It shows that the White House still has a certain defense capability. On the other hand, I still want to show that these terrorists are different from ordinary people. This kind of wrestling has brought the White House a victim of competition. The flag fell, and there was a feeling of conquering the world. The president and a group of high-level leaders were taken hostage by terrorists to the underground command post. The president was even abused and beaten, and the unimaginable scene appeared. When the terrorists proposed to kill the president without withdrawing the fleet stationed somewhere, the Pentagon was helpless, and everyone was calling for a "superman"-like miracle to appear, so the miracle appeared.

There are a lot of "Die Hard" shadows here. He doesn't have Rambo's muscles, but he feels that he has a quick mind beyond Rambo. This is one of the reasons for his ultimate success. Another reason is that this group of horror Molecules seem to have a high IQ, but they are actually very reckless. Mike just relies on the familiar terrain of the White House to solve them one by one, so the success of the hero is also accompanied by the sacrifice of some idiots and good luck that will definitely appear, which includes Find the son of the president who is playing hide-and-seek in the White House, and after sending him out of the White House, he starts to let it go.

Like many movies, the countdown can stimulate people's nerves and accelerate the tension of the movie. It starts to be a bit like a game, racing against time. If KO doesn't die, they are an unknown person. When KO dies, they become famous in one battle. He is burdened with the Pentagon and All the hopes of the president, to get rid of the bad guys in the White House one by one, to rescue the people to be rescued one by one, and finally to lift the nuclear crisis with 3 seconds left, such an American-style lone hero, one person resolved a human race. Catastrophe, what a feat this is.

Compared with the panicked special forces soldiers outside the White House and the military helicopters circling helplessly outside, the film highlights the role of the individual in a bright and beautiful way. Of course, it is a bit exaggerated, but it is undeniably good-looking. This kind of good-looking comes from a sharp contrast. This unequal comparison of strength is a comparison of weakness and strength. It seems that "The Fall of Olympus" has destroyed the White House for the first time this year. Whether you are in the mood of watching a disaster movie or watching the scene, Whether it's the hero's mood or the mood inside the mysterious White House, I think you can find pleasure in this film. This is a very refreshing film. As for where the fun is, I believe everyone has their own opinions. Bar.
