Back in 2009, there was an action blockbuster that became a must-see movie on major movie lists, it was "Special Forces: Rise of cobra"; later, in 2011, there was its sequel "Special Forces: Total Strike Back".
This is a movie adapted from the popular American comic of the same name, in which the action scenes, as well as the missions performed by the special forces, must be remembered by everyone, especially if there is a character in it, he is snake eyes.
In the special forces, there is another character, the White Ghost, who has also been a human figure of the villain. Therefore, in 2021, a film about the feud between Snake's Eye and White Ghost was "Special Forces: Snake's Eye Origin".
Arguably, the film is a prequel to 2009's Special Forces: The Rise of the Cobra, in which it tells the story of Snake's Eye and why the White Ghost became a member of the Cobra organization. Before starting to tell this movie, canteen Jun first briefly introduced to you what the previous two movies were about.
There is an extremely mysterious terrorist organization on the earth, its name is "Cobra", and the reason why "Cobra" is famous around the world is due to its terrorist operation against the Eiffel Tower, under the terrorist bombardment of "Cobra", this Iconic Building of France was instantly destroyed. Therefore, the U.S. government formed a special force to defend the country, G.I. Joe. Duke leads the Special Forces, and in order to fend off the evil Cobra leader and his men, vows to fight for freedom whenever and wherever he wants, and to go to the soup to fight the fire and fight the riots to get justice.
"Special Forces 2" is about the leader of the terrorist organization "Cobra" who is imprisoned but rescued and continues the unfulfilled plan of the previous episode. At the same time, the elite of the special forces were also attacked in a mission and lost their teammate "Duke". However, the special forces that were hit did not give up, and they gathered again, breaking the cobra's space-based kinetic weapons plot.
In order to let everyone know the origin of Snake's Eye, in the film "Special Forces: Snake's Eye Origin", it is told that Snake Eye's father, who was originally a special force, died because he infiltrated the Cobra Organization to obtain intelligence. At this time, his son, who was still an adult, saw this scene with his own eyes and secretly vowed in his heart to find the murderer of his father.
However, due to limited information and limited resources that individuals have access to, knowing that he has become an adult and taught himself a good martial art, he has not found the murderer of his father. And change his name, Snake's Eye.
By chance, there is a man who promises to help him find his father's killer, kenta, who was kicked out by the ancient Lan Shadow Ninja Group. In order to find the murderer, Snake Eye acquires the trust of the future heir of the Arashi Ninja Group, White Ghost, and infiltrates their family to undergo the three major trials. His mission is to steal the Sun Stone of the Arashi Ninja Group, a stone with endless power.
In the process, Snakeeye recognizes a fatal mistake and he is helping terrorists. However, he still got The Sunstone and gave it to Kenta. And he also saw the enemy who killed his father as he wished, but he did not take revenge, but realized that he had more important things to do to stop Kenta.
In the film, we learn that Snake Eye was originally just an ordinary person, not as deified as in "The Rise of the Cobra". He also makes mistakes, according to a sentence in the play:
"We all make mistakes, and what we do next is what matters."
So, let's take a look at the cast of the film, which can be said to be a superstar gathering:
Andrew Koji plays the role of White Ghost, who has starred in many American dramas and movies before, and must be familiar to everyone, such as his masterpiece "Warrior", which many people have seen. His athletic skills and gorgeous movements are his representatives, and every battle is quite interesting.
Not to mention Iko Uais, whose Raid is still high on the action list, and the film lets us know that Indonesia also has such a good action movie, with which it can be said that he has become famous all over the world.
But in addition to the action, the film also added a new element of the Special Forces series, that is, the magic element:
In the Special Forces series, the elements we see the most are action and science fiction, all kinds of high-tech weapons emerge from nowhere, and the firepower is huge. In this film, the Sunstone has a higher ability than human wisdom and technology, who has it has a super ability of mind, with the movement of fingers, you can kill and invisible.
Perhaps this element, in the next sequel, will continue to be used, increasing the ornamentation and watchability of the Special Forces series.
Let's talk about the action elements of this movie, there are so many world-renowned action actors joining, and the action scenes are the biggest highlights of this movie:
If the action of "Fury Case" some time ago was bronze, then the action of this movie can definitely be called the king. The film is dominated by cold weapons, not the home of gun battles, because in Japan, the knife is regarded as a weapon of honor. Therefore, in the action scenes on various occasions, most of them use the knife as the main combat element. Although it is a knife, it is as wonderful as a fist to a fist.
Overall, this is a must-see action blockbuster in 2021, and in your spare time, remember to check it out!
