It is said that it is shocking because of heavy rain, strong winds, heavy snow and floods, each of which is grand and realistic enough. If it is a 3D effect, it will definitely be frightened. Such an outcome is inevitable, and this movie can just sound the alarm for us; it is cruel enough because it does not hesitate to die of other characters in the movie, and uses a fatal tragedy that cannot be escaped to suppress the atmosphere of the whole movie. To despair; to say it is touching enough, because the film follows the usual practice of American films, using the final happy ending of the protagonists, so that the hopeless audience who has gone through two hours of icy darkness suddenly sees the light.
I remember someone analyzed that the biggest difference between foreign films and China is that foreign heroes always end up with both fame and fortune, love and career, while domestic heroes either die with the ultimate boss or the people around them have nothing in the process. One was spared. One side emphasizes the result, the other side focuses on the process. Cultural differences arise from this.
In the process of watching, I was super afraid that Sheila died with the child accidentally, and I was afraid that Sam didn't insist on reaching his father by accident, and I was also afraid that Jack died on the way to the library. Fortunately, fortunately, it is an American hero. In the end, none of this happened, so let me cry with joy at the last moment!
