A brief introduction

National Security is a typical Hollywood action comedy. The story takes place in Los Angeles. Earl (martin lawrence) is a young man who grew up in the black area of Los Angeles. He is rebellious and irritable, and he has been determined to become a policeman since he was a child. Not long after he entered the police academy, Earl, who was flexible and responsive, was ostracized because of his rebellious personality and arrogance, and was quickly swept out of the school, and finally ended up as a small security guard in the national security agency.

In an unexpected traffic accident, Zal and Hank met. Hank is a white policeman with a dumb personality and conservative behavior. The common point with Earl is that both of them are regarded as losers by their peers. The so-called no discord, no concord, Earl and Hank went to war after the accident, and Earl's embellishment made Hank unfortunately detained his badge, and finally he was reduced to the security guard of the same building with Zar. It's a coincidence that Earl and Hank were forced to form a partner, * * * as the "boring" security work. Their different skin colors and different personalities, combined with their previous unhappiness, make their partner life even more ironic and quarrelsome, and the sound of bickering is endless.

But just in the middle of their banter, the unlucky couple unexpectedly discovered a big conspiracy involving a super underground smuggling ring in Los Angeles. They went further and found clues that even extended to the top of the police. So two losers who were kicked out by the Los Angeles Police Force secretly launched an investigation with only a little clue in their hands. What they don't know is that this behavior has angered Nash, the head of the smuggling group in absolute monarch. Instead, the initiative becomes passive, and those who catch people are caught. Earl and Hank immediately fell into the dilemma of being hunted by Nash all day long, and even the LAPD and federal detectives joined in the pursuit of them ... wallpaper download

[ martin lawrence's price soared ]

In 1997, Martin's "Nothing To Lose" was a box office success, which made his star career smoother. In 2, Martin broke through the role of a 3-pound undercover fat mother in "Jedi Daddy", and his comedy talent was even more obvious. Martin's salary also rose with the film he starred in. He got a generous reward of $16.5 million for the film "The Black Knight" filmed by Fox Company in the 2th century. Although the film didn't sell well, it is said that the salary of Martin in "National Security" was promoted to 2.

[ Diligent Steve Zane ]

Steve Zane, who plays with martin lawrence in the film, makes Hank, a conservative and lovable character, look naive and vivid. Under the contrast of martin lawrence's dynamic comedy style, Zane's performance is restrained, but it is also full of skill. Zane made a living by doing odd jobs before becoming famous, and only relied on her persistent artistic beliefs to get out of her own acting career. Finally, after years of struggle in the entertainment industry, Hollywood began to notice him in 1998. After starring in The Red Tide Storm, he received many film offers one after another, including the box office blockbuster Electronic Love Letter starring Tom Hanks. In the film "Happy Texas" starring him in 1999, he played an escaped criminal who was forced to dress up as a homosexual. The successful shaping of this role finally won Zane a comedy performance award, and also made his unique comedy performance way known.

Under the leadership of the police technical adviser, director dennis dugan toured the worst and turbulent streets in Los Angeles. For safety reasons, the director even wore bulletproof vests and spent the street trip in fear. There are many fighting scenes in the film. In order to be realistic, the director arranged for martin lawrence to shoot 35, bottles full of beer and soda water with a submachine gun. The scene was spectacular. Steve Zane ran as hard as he could in a scene, and as a result, he ran into a moving camera. The bruise made his leg lame for several days.

[ Short Comment ]

Many film critics think that the plot of National Security is too far-fetched, but Columbia Pictures is quite confident in this comedy released at the beginning of the year. Because the more cliche a movie is, the box office is likely to succeed, which depends entirely on the taste of the audience.

The two leading men in the film, one is black and the other is white. The great contrast of their skin color and personality has also caused a lot of discussion on racial topics. For example, many white American viewers think that the film's expression of white police is too timid, and at the same time it exaggerates the intelligence and courage of black people, which is a bad suppression of white people. On the other hand, some black audiences think that in order to increase the comedy effect, martin lawrence's lewd elements and greedy plots are deliberately added, which is very unworthy. It seems that although America claims to be free and equal, even in a comedy, racial prejudice will still bring a lot of problems.
