I would like to write a quick review after watching the movie, Pierce Brosnan's "Shadow". The more words, the better.

The first article:

Some people like to abuse themselves, knowingly watching TV The special report on the earthquake disaster makes me feel very sad, but whenever I have free time these days, I use the remote control to adjust it to Central One. I know that watching disaster movies at this time will cause more pain than entertainment, but I still choose from the mountain of DVDs. Watch movies about geological disasters. That's the kind of person I am.

I watched "Landslide" in the theater when I was a child, probably in the upper grade of elementary school or the lower grade of junior high school. At that time, I didn't know that the starring role was the famous 007 Brosnan. I didn’t know that he was dubbed by Zhou Yemang, a famous voice actor in Shanghai. More than ten years have passed, and there are only three plots left in my mind from this film. One is that a young man and woman were scalded to death in a hot spring, and the other is that a geologist who made a mistake in predicting the disaster was killed when a bridge collapsed. In another case, the male protagonist's arm was smashed until the bones were exposed. I checked IMDB before watching this time, and it only got a score of 5.6. Fortunately, my memory is more trustworthy. In fact, this movie is far from that bad, and it is even quite good.

The film begins with a story about a volcanic eruption four years ago. The male protagonist Harry’s girlfriend was hit on the head by a rock and died. Four years later, Harry was ordered to conduct observations at the Dante volcano. After discovering abnormalities in mountain hot springs and jungles, he advised the mayor to prepare to evacuate residents at the foot of the mountain. In order to make it easier for the male protagonist to fall in love, the mayor of Dante City was arranged to be a woman, and the female mayor Rachel was played by the heroic mother in "Terminator"! But this time the mother has obviously been given a more complex mission. On the one hand, she must consider people's safety and on the other hand, she must develop the regional economy. Therefore, in the face of uncertain geological disaster prediction results, it becomes particularly difficult to choose one of the two. .

I remember that when I was a child, I watched the geological expert Paul as a villain, so when he died, I still felt a little relieved. But when I watched the film again today, that feeling was gone, and I felt more helpless. I remember that the heroine in a TV series said "love is unpredictable". Now I feel that geological disasters are simply more difficult to predict. These days, there are also some rumors about the signs of the Sichuan earthquake, but if you think about it carefully, so what? We often say that life is above all else, but as long as it is not life-threatening, we have too many things that are difficult to let go of. This is true for leaders and the same is true for ordinary people. Like the boss in the film who is afraid of losing his investors, the shop owner is afraid of affecting his business, and the old lady would rather take risks than leave her mountain hut. Due to the unpredictable nature of disasters, geological experts’ judgments on the same situation vary depending on their experiences. Harry tried his best to persuade everyone to evacuate because he had lost his lover to a volcano, while Paul had a conservative attitude because his prediction error caused an economic depression in one country. But even so, Paul conducted a week-long observation, but there was no movement from the volcano. . Therefore, there is no real right or wrong between Paul and Harry, just as we have no complete reason to condemn the prediction agencies and government departments related to this earthquake.

Due to the time limit, the plot of the film is told in a hurry. Most of the shots showing disaster scenes in the film are small, and the ruins shot near the end can easily remind people of a studio. I don’t know. Is it due to funding? But overall, it is quite shocking, especially the Sour River section is the most terrifying. Although some plots are unreasonable, the actors' performances are still convincing. I have always felt that Brosnan is not suitable to play 007 because he is too serious, and I always feel that this old man is not relaxed enough when acting. It is more suitable to play this kind of intellectual who has experienced hardships and faced disasters.

Coincidentally, the day before yesterday was Pierce's birthday, and today is Fa Ge's birthday. Unfortunately, I'm not in the mood to celebrate recently. Both of them are in their fifties. Today I suddenly felt that it is not easy for people to live to this age, because human life is really fragile. But for most of us, it would be unrealistic or even cause trouble to put down our work and rush to the earthquake-stricken areas to save lives and heal the pain. But if this earthquake really makes each of us realize the value of the people around us, be kind to everyone around us, and be willing to help people around us, the inner suffering of these days will not be in vain.

What I don’t like to hear the most when watching live TV these days is the phrase “victory in earthquake relief”, because I feel that with so many people dead, it can’t be called victory anyway. All people can do is to face the disaster bravely, live strong, and realize the value of their lives. Reading various reports these days, the ones I despise the most are those performance groups and businesses that use consumers to donate a dime or one yuan to the disaster-stricken areas for every purchase as a gimmick. You can donate if you want. Why do you use disasters as a promotional tool?

Human beings are always in a weak position in front of nature. Just as the protagonist of "Wild Survival" realized through his life, nature does not favor human beings. In the past, the thinking that "man can conquer nature" seems to be very naive today. What we need to do is just to follow nature.

If earthquakes have little to do with human activities, we can use our own actions to reduce the occurrence of climate natural disasters, because we have all witnessed the power of nature.
