"Steal the Day"

The 2003 film was reserved for me by LG. I finally found time to watch it recently. It was very enjoyable! It is said to be a remake of "Mission Italia" in the 1960s, and I can't help but respect the Americans. At that time, our Chinese movies were still full of revolutionary women with short hair and a shy smile at the revolutionary man with a box gun. Woolen cloth! People have begun to study high-tech crime. However, if you think about it from another angle, in just 40 years, Chinese films have made a lot more progress than American films. Besides, these kinds of films can’t be separated from China’s “Thirty-six Strategies” if they come and go. Pushing it forward for 1,800 years, Chinese people have achieved much higher than foreigners.

Most of the films with the theme of stealing are a routine, heavily guarded buildings or villas, and safes are filled with valuable antiques, treasures or money. Big thieves or small thieves reach the treasure through ventilation pipes and underground pipes, and use various methods to open the safe and get rid of the stupid guards. You're done, and most get away with it.

"Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun" is probably this formula, the difference is that he used the trick of "mocking the tiger away from the mountain" and "stealing the beam and changing the column" - when he blew the safe full of gold bars under the water hut, he used a boat with a fake safe to lead the guards away , the real safe actually fell into the bottom of the water, and was successfully obtained by the prepared thieves wearing wetsuits. But Norton, the unscrupulous, came to cross the river and draw the bridge. On the way they fled with gold bars, they set up an ambush, threw the big guys to the bottom of the water, and set up a lot of cold guns. Then fly away with gold bars!

If the story is over, the movie is over, and you can imagine that a few of them didn't die, so they started a journey of revenge...

The result? It's not that justice triumphs over evil, anyway, stealing things can't be attributed to justice! But the road is one foot high, the devil is ten feet high, and the few people who didn't die still took the gold bars back, and they used one to invite you into the urn, and Norton was captured alive...

I won't say much about the wonderful places, so as not to Those who haven't seen it know in advance, it's less interesting :)

    A successful entertainment film has many entertainment elements: excellent cast, wonderful action design plus a little love for flavor, etc., although the plot has been reduced to rigid and formulaic, for such a typical summer fast food blockbuster, Perhaps the most fair evaluation is: "Even if you will forget it in the near future, it is still a very exciting movie feast for the public.

    Remember yes, this should be the film full of minis. . The mini sports car performance to the extreme.

The Italian Job quotes

  • Lyle: [referring to Sean Parker] And then he's just the media darling... He's on the cover of all the magazines, I should of been on the cover of Wired Magazine. You know what he said? He said he named it "Napster" because it was his nickname because of the nappy hair under the hat. But he, it's because I was NAPPING when he STOLE it from me! He didn't even graduate!

    Handsome Rob: I think it's time to move on, don't you? They shut him down, I wish they would do the same to you.

  • Lyle: [typing into his computer] They are about to hit a major detour and be sent your way.

    [presses a button. A traffic light at one intersection turns green. Lyle then presses another button, turning the opposite light green. With both directions having greens, one car ends up sideswiping the back of another one. Lyle watches the crash, and says]

    Lyle: Oops.

    [He presses a different button. Another light turns green. Two cars collide and pancake together, sliding into a parked car. Lyle types into his computer]

    Lyle: You'll... never... shut down... the *real*... Napster.

    [At the traffic control center, the message "YOU'LL NEVER SHUT DOWN THE REAL NAPSTER" appears across all of the video monitor screens. The scene changes to various clips of gridlock across the city]
