Movie Experience | "Operation Black Light"'s counterattack against "stability maintenance"
In this type of action movie, you know before you enter the scene that the plot will be the established routine, and the good guys will eventually win - if you haven't watched it for a long time, you will still want to go to the theater to enjoy such a popcorn movie, and then expect it to be a favorite routine. . The performance of this "Blacklight" (Blacklight) is quite satisfactory, not particularly brilliant, the plot is expected, but as a Lienison fan and still has some tension, the overall feeling is passable. (I just saw that 1.3 billion Taiwan dollars was spent... destined to not be able to pay back? Even the degree of discussion is very low!)
Wei An elite or stability maintenance thugs?
Lien Nison plays the character Travis, who has worked directly for the FBI director for many years, rescuing or mentoring undercover agents. In an accident, due to the accusation of a trusted agent, he began to doubt his own mission, and then joined forces with a female reporter to uncover the dark story of the indiscriminate killing of innocent people in the name of Guoan.
The plot is simple, but it is not so easy to think about what the state machine should do. The author believes that Wei An focuses on safeguarding the safety of life and property of the people of the country, which is what the people expect elite detectives to do; maintaining stability focuses on maintaining the overall stability of the national situation and the society and the regime. , to convince them that they are doing the right thing, when in fact the only way they can stay in power and become selfish. As a result, candidates who are favored by public opinion are easily harmed, and undercover agents who are shaken by love and awakened have become the targets of "disobedience" and must be "cleaned up". With the sacrifices of activists, Travis has to defend his position in the face of mandates he has never questioned before: Stand with the people, or with state authority?
Although the starting point is purely based on feelings, there are still a few regrets:
1. The director has always given instructions in person, and has not done much to hide, but the beliefs of the two sides are insufficiently portrayed, and the conflict is not strong enough. 2. The director sent elites to deal with Travis, but he didn't kill them once and didn't kill them immediately, which became a hidden danger for his own safety and lofty goals; and he did not target Travis' daughter and granddaughter, and arranged them in the witness protection plan, which is considered very unusual. kindness? (or have missed reading, please do not hesitate to let me know) 3. Compared with the undercover detectives who were hunted down, the female reporter was unexpectedly safe, and she did not hide the relevant branches of other female congressmen. It is a pity that high-quality opinion leaders are short-lived.
Even though the nearly 70-year-old Lien Nixon is not as good as before, the speeding chase with the undercover agent is quite interesting, and the little granddaughter who inherits Grandpa's excessive vigilance is very cute, adding to the soft atmosphere of a tough guy movie, suitable for leisure viewing.
