Suspense masterpiece "The Rhythm Section" movie review Commentary material Afterthoughts
Today we bring you the 2020 suspense masterpiece "The Rhythm Section".
This is a cold film
Due to the impact of the epidemic last year
Not too much into the public eye
But the film is very brain-burning
Can be described as a masterpiece of suspense
Few viewers can understand it in one go
For those who like suspense
Don't miss it!
I'll give you a detailed explanation at the end of the video
The film stars Blake Lively
Her name may be unfamiliar to you
But mention her masterpiece
She is familiar
The main actress in "Shark Beach
One person can support that thriller film
So today she is in this suspenseful masterpiece
What kind of performance will she give?
Let's take a look!
Let's start without further ado
At the beginning of the film
A woman with a gun
Aimed at an old man who is very sick
She is our heroine, Xiao Mei
But what is the deepest hatred
That makes a beautiful girl
turned into a killer?
The story began eight months ago.
Originally she had a happy family
A handsome brother
and a lovely sister
But then an accidental plane crash
resulting in the death of all four members of the family
And Xiao Mei was not on that plane by mistake
Only then did she escape death
Since then, she has fallen
She became what she is today
She lived by selling her body to the world
Then there was a knock on the door.
It seems to be another "business"
Then a man came in
His name is Xiao Shuai
Judging from the dressing
Does not look like to enjoy
As expected
He claimed to be a journalist
He was recently writing a story about a plane crash
He wanted to use Xiao Mei
to investigate some relevant information
and told Xiao Mei
The fact that the plane crash was not an accident
It was man-made
Such a large amount of information
For a while, Xiao Mei was at a loss for words
So she called the boss
Kicked Xiaoshuai out
Afterwards Xiaomei was alone in the bathroom
The good old days
Constantly echoing in the mind
If it was really caused by man
Then this person is
The culprit who made her fall so low
Anyway, she had nothing left now
So she decided to find the real culprit
To avenge the death of her family
Then she followed the card left by Xiao Shuai
and found him.
When she arrived at Shuai's house, she found
He didn't look like a journalist at all
More like an intelligence officer
This made Xiao Mei realize
She might be in trouble
Ready to pack her bags and leave
But then she was attracted by the photos on the wall
Among the hundreds of photos of the victims
Her own family was among them
When she saw the photo of her brother
She was even more distressed
So she decided to stay here
to avenge her family's death
Then Xiao Shuai told her
This man in the photo
Is the one who made the bomb for the plane crash
His name is Shing
The London police had found his track
At this point, Xiao Mei wondered
Why didn't they arrest him?
Xiao Shuai gave the explanation that
The police are playing a long game to catch a big fish
In order to catch the mastermind behind him
Afraid to scare the snake
So delayed action
Then Xiao Mei asked
How do you know these things
Xiaoshuai replied
I have an informant
Originally a member of MI6
He was suspended because of a mistake.
But now he's still an insider.
There are many questions here
Why did Xiao Shuai take such a big risk
Leak information to such a degenerate loser?
Secondly there were so many victims on the plane
Why only find Xiao Mei alone to understand the situation?
Does it mean that there is some kind of conspiracy?
Let's read on
Afterwards Xiao Mei inadvertently found
Xiao Shuai's confidential documents
They are all related to a man named Dazhong
She also found out that he was living in a lake in Scotland
This made Xiao Mei's initial judgment
This Dajiang may be Marshal's informant
Not only that.
She also secretly hid Ah Cheng's ID information
It seems that she is determined to avenge the death of her family
At night, Xiao Shuai looked at Xiao Mei who was sleeping
It looks like he wants to say something to Xiao Mei
But then held back and just covered her with a blanket
The next day
Xiao Mei hesitated
Finally, she couldn't help but ask Xiaoshuai
Who is this Dazhong?
Is it the informant you said?
But Xiao Shuai did not say anything about it
More like he was hiding something
Obviously Xiao Mei can't stand
The criminals who killed her family are still at large
After taking photos
Then she went to eliminate the crime herself
With the only savings she had left
bought a gun
Following the clues that Xiao Shuai had compiled
Sure enough, he found Shing
But I was just a weak and helpless woman
She didn't have the ability or the guts to kill
I could only watch the other party strut away
Her weakness and incompetence
Her self-esteem was deeply affected
She had no choice but to go back to Xiao Shuai's house again
When she returned home
A horrible scene happened in front of her eyes
The house had been torn into a mess
Not only that
Xiaoshuai even died at home
This time let Xiao Mei do not know what to do
Obviously, the chicken was stolen but the rice was lost
Because of Xiao Mei's recklessness to provoke members of the organization
Therefore, Xiao Shuai was killed
There was no way to stay in this place
Xiao Mei could only find the big strong
She tried to seek help
The journey was quite smooth
When she reached Dazhuang's house
but found no one there
The next thing you know, a man in black attacked you from behind
It was Dazhuang
And judging from his actions
Seems to have expected that Xiao Mei will come
It seems that all the information about Xiao Mei
Before the dead Xiaoshuai told Dazhong
After that, he didn't kill Xiao Mei
Instead, he put her in a small dark room
The next day
When Xiaomei woke up
Dazhong was already sitting in front of her
Seeing this, Xiao Mei had to explain what had happened
She was desperate for revenge
She killed Xiaoshuai
And scared the snake
Ah Cheng now also do not know where to escape
After hearing this, Da Zhuang was furious
But it seems that all this is expected by him
Then he said to her in a rage
In your current state, not to mention revenge
Can not even touch each other's fingers
You will be dead.
If you want to take revenge, you have to quit your damn drug addiction.
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The next period of time
Xiao Mei took this opportunity
really gave up the drug addiction
This made Dazhong see for the first time
Xiaomei's determination to take revenge
But to get revenge
Just give up the drug addiction
is not enough
In this regard, Dazhong decided to help her
Followed by the devil test training
However, for Xiao Mei, who was raised in a pampered manner
It was hell
She couldn't hold out
She soon gave up
Dazhong said frankly
You don't have the determination to take revenge
And you are not qualified to talk about revenge
Why don't you just jump into the lake and kill yourself?
Reunite with your family in another world
This once again hit Xiao Mei's self-esteem
Then Xiao Mei really jumped into the lake
Does it mean she really chose to kill herself?
Of course not
She just wanted to prove her determination
When Xiao Mei returned to Da Zhuang's house with a wet deer
Completely show the determination of revenge
Afterwards, Dazhong told Xiao Mei the whole story
The man who made the bomb, Shing.
was just an errand boy.
The real mastermind behind the scene is a person named U17
Then Xiao Mei asked who was U17
Dazhong replied
U17 is not a person
It's a code name
Anyone could be him
And this Ah Cheng is the direct contact of U17
The implication is
If you want to find Shing for revenge
You have to find U17
And then he told Xiao Mei
The previous training and sobriety are just child's play
The real test is just beginning
The next step is to face the vicious terrorists
Are you ready?
Xiaomei resolutely said yes
Next
Dajiang began to train Xiao Mei to use guns
And close combat
He also gave her a new identity
Her name was Xiao Li
Originally Xiao Li was a CIA agent
But after one mission, she disappeared.
She was never seen alive or dead.
This identity is perfect for Xiao Mei
It was perfect for Mei
The journey of revenge began
First, Dazhong handed Xiao Mei a photo
Tell her
This man is called Old Black
He was originally from the CIA
But now he quit
After he changed his name
He started selling information on the black market.
He is the first target we want to approach
By gaining his trust.
Then we can find out the whereabouts of U17
Then Dazhong arranged a way for Xiao Mei to get close to Laohei
That is to assassinate Long Hair
This Long Hair is not only Old Black's rival
He also has a problem with Xiao Li
Now you are disguised as Xiao Li
In the old black to buy the information of the long hair is also a natural
Then Xiao Mei went to Old Black as instructed by Da Zhuang
And changed the same hair style as Xiao Li
It seems that Xiao Mei is still suitable for long hair
The first time I saw Xiao Mei
Old Black is still a bit cautious
Directly offered 200,000
Xiao Mei did not hesitate to agree
Then the old black finished the location of long hair
Then turned around and left
Then Xiao Mei came to Long Hair's house
It is the scene at the beginning of the film
She pointed her gun at Long Hair
This is her first mission after becoming a killer
Facing the sick Long Hair
Xiao Mei hesitated to do it
After all, a few months ago
She was a woman who sold her body for a living
Now she had to kill an unarmed man
It was hard for her to choose
But the next moment
She was met with a counterattack from Shaggy
Xiao Mei, who obviously had no experience in combat
By this vicious long hair in front of her
She was so frightened and confused
She almost lost her life
But at that moment, Long Hair had a heart attack
He was not breathing
In this way, Xiao Mei completed her first mission by mistake
After that, Old Black found Xiaomei
This mission soon spread in the industry
Xiaomei became the top killer in the industry
So she also gained Lao Hei's trust
Then Old Black introduced her to the next mission
It was to assassinate a man named Old Park
Asked Xiao Mei if she was willing to take it
At the same time
Old Black seemed to like the "top killer" in front of her
Xiao Mei told Lao Hei
Go back and think about it
and turned to leave
After that Dazhong told Xiao Mei
I can take this job
Lao Park is the sponsor behind U17
If you kill him
can further gain the trust of Old Black
After that, Xiao Mei went back to the hotel
To discuss with Dazhong the plan to kill Park
At this time, Xiao Mei became interested in Dazhuang's life
Then she asked Dazhuang
Why was he suspended from his job?
Dazhong answered that he killed a person by mistake
Xiao Mei then asked who this person was
See the whole process described by Dazhong
This person was originally a CIA agent
He was responsible for the assassination of a U17 member.
But he killed an MI6 agent by mistake
And this agent is Dazhong's wife
So in a fit of rage
Dazhong killed the CIA agent in return.
When the CIA found out about this, they were furious.
They went straight to MI6 to demand an explanation.
They had no choice but to suspend themselves
And the CIA agent who was killed by Dazhong
It was Xiao Li who disappeared.
Only then did Xiao Mei understand
The real reason why she was chosen
It turns out that the physical characteristics are very similar to the dead Xiao Li
That's why she was chosen by Dazhong.
To be trained as a killer
Firstly, she would not be suspected by the other side
Secondly, it's easier to get close to Old Black
Find U17
However, Xiao Mei did not care about this deception
Anyway, she wanted revenge
The next day the two continued to discuss the assassination plan
Da Zhuang said frankly
This old Park is very horny
So ......
Before Da Zhuang finished his speech
Xiao Mei knew what to do next
This is all too familiar to her
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Mei disguised herself as a blonde girl
easily approached old Park
Just as she was about to strike.
Mei was guilty of being soft again.
She only cut Park's neck.
Did not cause fatal injuries
And left in a hurry.
But when the old Park took the car to the hospital
But the car exploded on the way
It seems that Dajang had expected this
So he installed a bomb in the car
So the two missions are not a single one is completed by Xiao Mei
But it was done.
This once again gained the trust of the old black
Although Xiao Mei is not good at assassination
But there is one thing she is better at
That is seduction
After all, she came from this industry
She also saw that Old Black had some interest in her
Then she came to Old Black's house
With the lure of two completed tasks
And old black lingered a bit
Thus completely gained the trust of old black
However, she received a call from Da Zhuang
He told Xiao Mei
The mission to kill Old Park
Wasn't ordered by Old Black.
but U17.
That means Old Black was commissioned by U17
The implication is that U17 is eliminating those who are related to him
The next target is likely to be Old Black and you
Hearing this, Xiao Mei directly showed his face to Lao Hei
Tell him the real purpose of U17 now
And then said directly
Now only you and I are left
And only you know where U17 is
At this point in time
The only way to survive is to tell me where he is
And get rid of him in order to live
Otherwise, we will all die by U17's hand
Seeing this old black did not hesitate
Tell Xiao Mei directly
U17 is preparing for the next bombing attack
Then Xiao Mei really in the old black gave the location
found this mysterious U17
However, this U17 is no other person
It was the bomb maker Shing
Seeing the enemy who killed his family
Xiao Mei did not hesitate
Pulled out the gun directly
But still let him get away
Finally in the bus will be speed to it
This time Xiao Mei did not let go
Used the close combat that she had learned before
Knocked Shing to the ground
Just as she was about to kill him
Xiao Mei saw that Shing left tears of remorse
This moment made Xiao Mei understand
The man in front of me
Wasn't U17
He was just an errand boy responsible for planting the bomb
Although he caused the crash of the plane
But the one who really killed her family
was the U17 behind the scenes
At that moment, the car bomb exploded
Acheng was then destroyed in smoke
After that, Xiao Mei returned to the old black house again
This time Xiao Mei really completed the mission with her own ability
The two of them are free from U17's pursuit
When Xiao Mei hugged Lao Hei
Here comes the reversal
Xiao Mei directly inserted the deadly snake venom into Laohei's body
It turns out that the old black is the real U17
As soon as Xiao Mei found Lao Hei
Old Black decided to eliminate all contacts
So he used Xiao Mei
To carry out the assassination
But the last mission
Before the car exploded
Shing told Xiao Mei the secret of who is U17
In this regard, Xiao Mei will take advantage of the plan
Finally returned to the old black house
And killed the real U17
To avenge the death of the real U17
But is that the end of the film?
Of course not.
Two weeks later, Xiao Mei returned to London
At that moment, Dazhong suddenly appeared
He pinned Xiao Mei to the wall
And said something very strange
Xiao Li must die
Xiao Mei weakly replied
My name is Xiaomei
Then Dazhong let go of his hand
The two of them smiled faintly
Then they went their separate ways
This is the end of the film
It can be said that the end is the highlight of the whole film
Did you not understand
Then let me explain to you
In fact, the real U17 is Da Zhuang
He is the double agent of MI6 and U17
Before the big strong mouth said
CIA Xiao Li was on a mission to assassinate U17
And ended up killing his wife by mistake
This means that
Dazhong was supposed to be killed.
His wife helped Dazhong to block the shot
So Dazhong killed Xiao Li
After this incident
Dazhong's identity was exposed.
That's why he quit MI6
He lived in hiding in Scotland.
But he was afraid that the CIA would trace the truth
So he had to eliminate all those who were involved
But he couldn't move himself.
He had to find someone to do the assassination for him.
And who can obey his words?
It was Mei.
Of all the victims of the plane crash.
Only Xiao Mei's family was killed.
That's why Dazhong was sure
Xiao Mei would definitely take revenge for this
So he took advantage of Xiao Mei's psychology
To train him as a killer
Complete Dazhong's plan
The news report after the death of Laohei said
Old Black was not some U17
but a philanthropist
Then why did Xiao Mei not kill Dazhong to take revenge at the end of the film?
Because of the plane crash
was planned by the philanthropist
It was not the work of U17
U17 is just a double conspiracy to sell information
In fact, Xiao Mei already knew this in her mind
She was willing to play the game
She was willing to be a pawn of Da Zhuang
Using him to train herself as a professional killer
To avenge the death of her family
To kill the philanthropist Old Black who killed his family with his own hands
The last two laughed but did not say anything
It shows that
The other side have seen through each other's psychology
I can say that this suspense film
can really be called a masterpiece
Few viewers can understand it once
It is really suspenseful and invisible
(End)
