If I were part of Operation Swordfish

I have watched a lot of movies, but the ending of this movie gave me a different feeling, what is right and what is wrong, what we see is not necessarily right. What is true and what is false, what we see should not be true! I have to say, there are still some flaws in this film. For example, Shockman risked going to jail for $100,000. According to his level, I think someone must have paid more money to let him do things! When Shockman arrived in Los Angeles, his movements were not restricted, and he could even borrow a car to see his daughter. How could this be possible? And the police knew what he was doing, and even had enough reasons to arrest him, but gave him a business card and let him go! You must know that the previous hacker was directly killed in the police station!
Of course, since it’s a movie, it’s not about life, but higher than life. The description at the beginning of the film made me think it’s a documentary. It can be said that the director is very creative, and the flashback method can also leave us a little puzzled. What kind of thing is this? Case! The film has many elements that a blockbuster should have, such as handsome men and beautiful women, street shootouts, car chase scenes, and more! I really like this way of showing beautiful women but not necessarily having to go to bed, so as not to fall into the clichés! The feelings of the two people have been brought together in one stroke, and it is a little fresh! Shockman's righteous heart wanted them to get no money and wanted to save the hostages, but unfortunately he didn't succeed, and he was even blinded! When asked if you could cure a disease, would you hurt an innocent person, Shockman said no! Of course, this is based on morality! All lives cannot be ignored, but what if our motherland faced such a choice, what would we do if we were part of Operation Swordfish! Will they do things that are hurtful to ordinary people for the safety of hundreds of millions of people! I believe that there must be such a group of people around us. They are in the secret institutions of the state and bear important secrets that we do not know! They may commit crimes, and they may not be able to recover after being caught, but they are for the billions of people! Maybe, we salute them! I'm an ordinary person, I can't save the world, change the world! But I can make my life more meaningful, and seeing the thoughts he wants to convey to us in every movie can give us some inspiration too!
Do it in its place! There are no bad guys in this film, but their roles are different and the meaning of life is different! The meaning of my life? Still looking to see when the value of my existence will be reflected!

    In 2001, the slow motion of the explosion is very good, and the others are very contrived.

    The sentence is: If the price of eradicating all disease was killing an innocent little girl, would you do it? However, only scattered similar words are said from the protagonist's mouth, which should only be designed to echo the ending. As for the theme of the story, no matter how you look at it, it is not a debate about using violence to control violence, but a subversive victory of blindfolding. The content does not feel full enough, and the others are good.

  • Ginger: You're not too good at this golf thing, are you, Stan?

    Stanley: You're fucking up my chi.

    Gabriel: You know what the problem with Hollywood is? They make shit. Unbelievable, unremarkable shit. Now I'm not some grungy wannabe filmmaker that's searching for existentialism through a haze of bong smoke or something. No, it's easy to pick apart bad acting, short-sighted directing, and a purely moronic stringing together of words that many of the studios term as "prose". No, I'm talking about the lack of realism. Realism; not a pervasive element in today's modern American cinematic vision. Take Dog Day Afternoon, for example. Arguably Pacino's best work, short of Scarface and Godfather Part 1, of course. Masterpiece of directing, easily Lumet's best. The cinematography, the acting, the screenplay, all top-notch. But... they didn't push the envelope. Now what if in Dog Day, Sonny wanted to get away with it, REALLY wanted to get away with it? What if - now here's the tricky part - what if he started killing hostages right away? No mercy, no quarter. "Meet our demands or the pretty blonde in the bellbottoms gets it the back of the head." Bam, splat! What, still no bus? Come on! How many innocent victims splattered across a window would it take to have the city reverse its policy on hostage situations? And this is 1976; there's no CNN, there's no CNBC, there's no internet! Now fast forward to today, present time, same situation. How quickly would the modern media make a frenzy over this? In a matter of hours, it'd be biggest story from Boston to Budapest! Ten hostages die, twenty, thirty; bam bam, right after another, all caught in high-def, computer-enhanced, color corrected. You can practically taste the brain matter. All for what? A bus, a plane? A couple of million dollars that's federally insured? I don't think so. Just a thought. I mean, it's not within the realm of conventional cinema... but what if?
