A personal heroic American gunfight film:
Life and Death Sniper
The film was released in 2007, so far the Douban score is 7.8 points, 13 years of the film's reputation has stood firm, is a gunfight fans can not be miscalculated good film.
The film stars Muscular Male Mark Wahlberg, who had just won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his brilliant performance in Infernal Walker the year before.
The lead actress is actress Kate Mara, who played Heath Ledger's daughter in Brokeback Mountain and was only 24 years old when she starred in "Sniper of Life and Death".
The film tells the story of a sharpshooter who is framed by a villain, and he fights back and uses his own way to punish evil and promote good.
The retired sniper Bob (Mark Wahlberg) was found by the agency one day, and the person in charge entrusted Bob with a secret task to protect the president on the grounds that he had received information that the president was going to be assassinated.
Bob hesitated and accepted the task, but also fell into the trap that had been designed.
On the day of the president's street speech, although Bob had done enough precautions, gunshots rang out on the podium, and Bob, who was not able to react, was also black-shot in the back and was mistaken for the president's assassin and hunted down.
After a life-and-death escape, Bob hides at the home of his late comrade-in-arms' girlfriend (Kate Mara) and learns that it was not the president who was assassinated, but the bishop of a certain country who accompanied him on the trip.
Determined to find the truth, the recovered Bob teamed up with a novice cop (Michael Pena) who felt the incident was strange and found the killer behind the scenes through a series of clues.
From the killer's mouth, Bob learns that assassinating the president is just a cover, and that the real assassination target is the bishop. In order to cover up the crime of killing 400 villagers in Africa, the senators chose to become the bishop who went to the United States to track down the truth, and Bob became their scapegoat.
On the other hand, the senatorial camp discovers the purpose of Bob's party and kidnaps the girlfriend of the deceased comrade-in-arms as a blackmail.
Bob killed the villain Gunners with his excellent sniping skills, and had a positive and negative conversation with the senators at the top of the snowy mountains, and then the FBI rushed to capture Bob first.
Although Bob cleared himself of the assassination of the president in court and successfully charged the senator, the bad guy camp used loopholes to escape punishment.
After being released, Bob decided to stop the violence with violence, and single-handedly shot him to the residence of the senator, and punished the adultery and evil in the most primitive way of revenge.
This film is a standard American heroism cool film, in the tense viewing atmosphere, the exciting gun battle to bring the audience great audiovisual enjoyment, let's talk about the highlights of the film.
First, the big scene impacts the vision
Since this is a gunfight film, the film naturally has a strong impact on the visual perception.
The English name of this film is Shooter, and the more direct translation is gunner, so the film is full of gunfight elements, blood plasma splashing all over the ground, and various characters in the film are competing with different guns, and from time to time there is a shot headshot scene.
In the film, the two sides face each other on the top of the snowy mountain, a gun battle inevitably comes, and in contrast to the quiet environment, a gunshot is particularly harsh, accompanied by red blood plasma constantly splashing on the snow, such an audio-visual combination is very good.
The villain gunner was shot in the first second before he was not relieved, and the next shot was directly knocked out of his left hand, and the realism of this picture is shocking.
In addition, as a Hollywood production, this film naturally gives the top match in the props.
All kinds of flying car scenes make the audience watch straight to the addictive, even the helicopter is out, the protagonist single person and the helicopter came to a "man-machine war".
At the end of the film, the protagonist incarnates as the Dark Killer and takes the villain team to the end, accompanied by the scene where Bob has to take revenge and walks out of the house, behind which is the fire that soars after the explosion of the house.
The protagonist's dashing heroism plus the sincere explosion scene, how can such a standard Hollywood production be cool?
Second, to meet the audience's psychology, the plot is cool to watch
The outstanding features of the whole film are reflected in a cool word, the plot will not let the audience look at the blockage, and the expectations of the fans are also satisfied.
One of the cool things is to punish the villain severely.
In the film, the bad guy camp has done all the bad things, brutally slaughtered African tribes for oil, and done all kinds of dirty and ugly things to cover up the truth, after the matter was revealed, they escaped punishment through the "white gloves", and their hearts were extremely dark and hateful.
The film first writes about the evil of the bad guys, and as the villains lie down one by one, the audience's sense of resignation to the plot in the previous hour erupts with the protagonist.
Watching the villains begging for forgiveness on the floor, Bob unhurriedly shot one at a time, and the sound of gunshots touched the audience's righteous heart.
The second cool point is to satisfy the audience's personal heroic dream.
Bob in the film is a personal heroic character, and the sharpshooter's character setting allows him to play with only one gun in the film.
At the beginning of the film in Ethiopia to carry out a mission, the male protagonist showed a strong individual combat ability, he single-handedly single-handed helicopter, after a few shots directly exploded the helicopter, this marksmanship is simply godless.
When he rescues the heroine, he destroys the villain gunner with only one helper, and at the end of the film, he single-handedly breaks into the dragon pond to kill all the enemies, which raises his heroism to another level.
Through the portrayal of Bob's character, the classic personal hero image in American blockbusters reappears on the screen, such a role is also the protagonist of many American movies, in the United States, such a country that advocates superheroes, Bob's image also meets the expectations of the audience.
Third, reflect on the legitimacy of war
In the film, senators illegally plunder oil on the African continent for profit, and the blackheart kills more than 400 African villagers, and the mission that killed Bob in battle three years ago is also related to this matter... A series of moves to treat life as grass serve only the politician's own selfishness.
Even more infuriating is the pseudo-logic of the senator at the top of the snowy mountains who excused himself for his crimes, saying that the massacre of African villages would reduce backward inter-tribal fighting, and that the sacrifice of a village would be exchanged for regional stability, and the senator would try to justify himself with a set of hypocritical theories.
When the protagonists catch the evidence of the accusations, the villains can use various institutional loopholes to cleverly escape, and arrogantly show off to the protagonist: you lose.
Bob chose to burn the evidence revealing the truth of the massacre because he knew that it would have an impact on the military's image and could endanger his life.
The belly black editor believes that if the story is closed here, it will not lose its artistry and become a dark anti-war film.
However, in the ending, the director still left the audience with bright expectations, and since the system cannot sanction villains, Bob chose to sanction in his own way.
Fourth, pleasing to the eye, the macho and beautiful women
Regardless of the plot, the image of the male and female protagonists in the film is also very eye-catching, the male protagonist Mark Wahlberg was 36 years old when he filmed this film, and his figure, who had been a model in the early years, has always maintained a good figure.
Mark Wahlberg never hesitates to show his muscle lines, and in this film he is more naked many times, and the image of a tendon meat is very much in line with the feeling of an American tough guy.
The heroine Kate Mara was only 24 years old when she participated in this film, only 2 years after she starred in "Brokeback Mountain", and she was at the peak of her appearance, injecting some different elements into this hormonal explosion gunfight film.
Of course, as a gunfight film, the director still let the heroine pick up the gun.
From many perspectives, "Life and Death Sniper" meets people's requirements for popcorn cool movies.
The tight rhythm is very "explosive", so that the audience is in a tense psychological atmosphere at any time, and the standard equipment of American blockbusters such as gun battle elements and large scene creation is even more.
In the plot, the protagonist's continuous performance meets the fans' expectations and admiration for the hero.
What is even more valuable is that this film also adds deep thinking in addition to the elements of commercial films, portrays the darkness of the political system and the ugly faces of politicians, and combines the background of the times, the director also puts forward some questions about the legitimacy of the war.
Overall, just like the title of the title of the film "Life and Death Sniper", the characters in the whole film have been shuttling through the life and death line to play with the gun, and the audience changes with the emotions of the protagonist, sometimes tense and sometimes released, and harvests audiovisual enjoyment in the wonderful gun battle.
Such a gun battle film in 2007, even today, is also a "god film" that can blow up a group of fans, and realistically presents a scene of gunfights in the simplest and most brutal way, although the gun battles are frequent but relaxed, will not make the audience feel bored.
Watching more twists and turns of brain-burning movies, occasionally coming to a super cool film to stimulate adrenaline, and ordering yourself a two-hour audio-visual feast, why not enjoy it?
