Technically speaking, the plot is compact, and there is enough foreshadowing between the violent conflict plots, which will not make people feel that they are always in fear, but it is very exciting. The hand-held shaking lens is very commonly used in Somalia and on the ship. It is used in Somalia to bring out a turbulent atmosphere and the difficulty of survival. The use on the ship is very consistent with the actual perception, because the ship is already swaying, and it is more exciting to use it when conflicts on the ship, and it is still to create a sense of anxiety.
There are a few points in the plot that caught my attention.
1. Ruthless professionalism. This is reflected in several places.
First, the U.S. Navy saves people because of pressure from the White House and the media, so they are calm and professional. When the captain knew that the navy would not let the pirates win, he would rather destroy the entire lifeboat than let them take him back. Of course this is true. It may be that I haven't seen too many American movies before, so I think it's good to say it directly, rather than calling it humanitarianism.
Second, shoot and kill pirates. This is of course to protect the safety of the captain in a foolproof way. Originally, the army has a stand, but this does not prevent me from being very sad as a little girl!!!
Third, when the medical staff is helping the captain to check, she speaks a little fast It made me feel a little push, and then she repeated that she understood that she understood, but in fact she didn't really understand, the captain's inner fear, regret and fear. Perhaps medical staff are also accustomed to seeing birth, old age, sickness and death.
2. The definition of bad guys. Are pirates bad guys? I dare not say yes.
Talk about some specific feelings. When the pirates are about to board the ship, I very much hope that they will not go there, because in my eyes the people on the ship are unarmed and the pirates are coming menacingly. When the captain casts the glass, I feel that he is out of self-defense. However, with regard to glass, after I learn more about the sixteen-year-old boy, I will sympathize with him very much. And although the captain's behavior was out of self-defense, it meant a little bit of slap and sugar. But for safety reasons, there is no way. At the moment when the pirates were at a disadvantage, especially after Moose got on the ship and they were shot, I became emotionally inclined to the pirates again.
When we don’t know a person, he is flat to us, the pirate is the pirate, and the captain is the captain. But as the plot deepens and expands, we see that this stereotype has been broken, the professional model has faded (oh my God, social psychology is not white!!!), and the personal image is better and three-dimensional, and we are gradually able to Understand the plight of people who do bad things. Just as I might think he looked cold before the image of the navy unfolded, but in fact, he also has a lover, family members and difficulties.
There is another place where the pirate said that there is a boss on him, and the captain said that I also have it. Many things are what you have to do in order to survive. You are born in a place with rules. If you don't adapt, you can't survive.
To paraphrase a sentence from teacher Shiji: "The cause and effect in the world is difficult to understand, how can it be determined by good and evil."
3. Love and tears.
Previously, Zhihu had a very popular answer to what love is, "It seems that there is a sudden weakness, and suddenly there is an armor."
The interaction between the captain and his wife reflects this, writing emails, writing suicide notes, and In the first aid, I called myself to love my family deeply. Well, I thought it was really good at the time.
The captain's last tears were not only for me, but also sadness. At that moment, the feelings were real and complicated. He must be sorry that he put himself in danger and made his family fearful; he must also regret that those pirates shot and killed like this, and there is a child who is still infrequent.
Emotionally speaking, I often use the standard of whether I want to look back and watch it a second time to measure my evaluation of a film. This movie is very good, but I probably won’t watch it a second time, because it’s pretty sad. Although Gao Xiansen said it’s not a sad movie... My favorite American movie is Flipped, and I watch it many times. It's easy to be in a good mood, and I won't watch it a second time like the Titanic. I
think it's pretty good anyway. It's a film that will arouse a lot of thoughts and resonance.
