A film based on true events necessarily needs to mention his true story, in November 2008, the Taj Mahal Hotel, a five-star hotel in Mumbai, India, was attacked, killing 195 people in 60 hours. The movie "Hotel Mumbai" once again refreshed the new heights of Indian cinema, the whole film did not laugh, and the movie was full of suffocating tension.
The film quickly entered the content, laying little foreshadowing, while introducing several major characters, the terrorist incident has occurred, the crazy strafing of the railway station, the slaughter of the hotel, the Taj Mahal is still peaceful, happy and harmonious, as if the outside is another world, the shooting is just a thing on TV, someone gave a warning, but was ignored by the hotel staff, this kind of character who listens to big words also seems to tell others, "Our hotel is five-star, the best hotel in Mumbai, how can there be a shooting." "The panicked crowd of people outside the shooting rushed into the hotel in order to take shelter, and the terrorists also mixed in, and the so-called security was as useless as the big words of the person just now.
The director has not arranged for the gangsters to enter a place with a close-up of the panicked look, because he knows that this place, this city, this country, security measures are useless, or there is no so-called security at all. In the attack on the hotel, the service staff is still using a service attitude to tell customers, in fact, they are afraid to tremble, do not know what kind of state such a service spirit is, the crisis of life, do you need others to remind you, spoiled people!
These self-proclaimed superior, polite people did not see these panicked scenes, thinking that others were hindering themselves, like the nobles of the Titanic, the flood came, but because the life jackets were "dirty", had no taste, refused to wear them, and seemed to be unflustered, they were just a group of people who did not have any sense of life troubles, and they were well-treated.
There are a lot of tense and outrageous scenes in the movie, that is in the closet, holding the child, outside is the god of death, that is hiding in the elevator, the door is the murderous gangster, the director created these horror atmosphere, I think every moviegoer will have a rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath. The director used the most real gun sound during the filming process, and I think the director not only wants to make the film more realistic and realistic, but also wants every audience to experience that horror, because there have been too many terrorist attacks in the world, and it is still happening, and each of us must be alert, we must be alert to our surroundings, because we do not want to experience this horror.
The film also constantly gives the gangsters to see these magnificent new things of surprise, sighing shots, they are very young young people, even said to be children, have to say that they are not highly educated, easy to be seduced by others, very easy to control, become extremely vicious, as people say, born evil, but the acquired morality constrains people to become further evil, and these gangsters let their own evil side develop, but also insist that they are the embodiment of justice, insisting on fighting for their faith, All this seems absurd to us, but it really happened, and it has serious consequences, and we look at these gangsters with young faces, shouldn't we reflect? Why on earth would the world breed things or beliefs that they can desperately rush to others? And this evil force has been driving them to act.
The ending of the movie should not have any sad and happy differences, how to save most of the hostages, how to successfully kill the gangsters, every casualty in the middle is a tragic price, every destruction in the middle is a human loss, we need to reflect too much, the incident occurred in a few hours, Mumbai as India's second largest city, there is no considerable police force, but also need to be called from New Delhi, the only force is actually a patrol police in cloth, almost no counterforce, they rushed forward, We sing the praises of their spirit, but we spurn their country, which does not provide the most basic guarantee of life for his people, and for more than a dozen hours after the incident, there was no orderly arrangement, and we doubted whether this country did not treat the victims as human beings.
Several major representative figures also show human nature to the fullest, when people face danger, they will choose to protect themselves, there is no doubt, but if they do not care about the lives of others, choosing to sacrifice others for their own safety is a sin, and on the contrary, they can take care of the lives of others, it is good, from this point of view, the service staff of this hotel is good, the procrastination of the staff of this country, inefficient, and not many people are favored.
When a gangster calls his family, we learn of his suffering, we begin to feel sad about his poor life, being brainwashed and controlled, and committing a terrible sin for the benefits of his fantasies, we feel indignant, we are angry with those who take advantage of others, take advantage of the weaknesses of others, take advantage of the faith of others, this kind of person should experience the deepest pain in hell!
We as human beings need unity, just like the people waiting for rescue in the hotel, people in the face of disaster, all the labels will disappear, there is only one identity - human beings, think of this, if we all mankind, the whole earth are united, to eliminate all the barriers, then will all this grief still appear?
