The number of words in each short comment is slightly over, which is very embarrassing, my Douban!

It is definitely an attractive movie. The pace is fast, it is not sloppy at all, and the plot is rich and compact. It is a masterpiece that can make people quickly integrate into it. From national riots, political shady, small to the difficult life of a family, the interaction of these two factors makes the film more realistic and fascinating. The only shortcoming is whether the politically sensitive factors involved are absolutely true or whether there is a suspicion of beautifying the United States and blackening the people of Southeast Asia. I don’t quite understand the stakes involved.

    So I don't understand why in some movies the Yankees happily go to work in Southeast Asia, where they give me the impression of being dirty...

    It does not clearly indicate which country in Southeast Asia it is, but it seems to take place in Cambodia. The exotic style is basically Steadicam's follow-up of the protagonist, and the street scene has almost no art processing. The keying synthesis of jumping off the building is too fake. In the end, I was rescued by fleeing to Vietnam. Why did the soldiers at the Vietnamese border shout in English to the Cambodians?
