"Rising Clouds" is the work of the late Hollywood big-name director- Tony Scott . The film is not a "martial arts" action film in the traditional sense, but uses a different form of expression through the label of youth. Let the audience have a deep understanding. The so-called youth is not about dance floors, luxury cars, or hormones. It is growth, responsibility, and dedication. A youth like
, maybe every young person wants to have it.
"Rising Clouds" is 110 minutes. It is a good youth inspirational film. The three views are very correct. The protagonist goes from a wrong path to thinking, and finally works hard. And the film received multiple nominations that year: best speaker effect, best film and sound editing. In my opinion, the film is a famous work by Brother Tom.
When mentioning Brother Tom, we all think of "High Aspirations", "Rain Man", "Mission Impossible" series, "World War" and other classic movies. As the years passed by, Brother Atang grew from a sunny and stubborn man in "Rising Clouds" to a good father in "World War".
A blockbuster film, not only an actor, but also a springboard for the director to take off. Internationally renowned science fiction director James Cameron also entered the ranks of Hollywood directors from the "Terminator" series. Stallone also confirmed the position of international action superstars in Hollywood through "Rocky".
The life-threatening aerial combat of "Rising Clouds" is not as good as Tom's song and dance.
"Ring of Aspirations" is a conscription promotional film for the US military. Tony Scott presents the beauty of the picture with exciting sound effects. In the film, the mid-to-long view, long-range view, and full-range view are almost perfectly switched. Let the audience watch the air fighter fighting with excitement without visual fatigue.
While Tom is speeding on the beach, Tony Scott switches to the close-up shot with the distant view, in the night light, the charm of Tom is the handsome on-screen man. Accompanied by classic songs-I hold my breath, Charlie (Kelly McGillis) is accompanied by Ma Huali (Atang Ge), a good pair of talents and beautiful ladies.
No matter where the navy pilot appears, he has all the sunglasses, army green jacket, big back head, small leather shoes, and the "Guo Fucheng" in the base. In particular, Ma Huali’s singing and dancing with Charlie in a bar with Wild Goose (played by Anthony Edwards) is a classic.
At the beginning of the film, the aircraft carrier warning, Mahuali and the Jaguar (John Stockwell) drive out enemy aircraft. However, the enemy planes wantonly provoked, and the two sides started dogfights (dogfighting refers to fighter close combat and fighting). The Jaguar was driving an F14 and was fired by the MiG 28. In order to get rid of the enemy's hold, the Jaguar escaped very embarrassed. Fortunately, Brother Atang was in a hurry and saved the jaguar, and took the risk of violating the regulations to bring the jaguar back safely.
was chased by the MiG 28 to the autistic Jaguar, and he asked to retire when he came back. This made the officer very helpless. Although he tried his best to dissuade him, the Jaguar insisted on leaving considering his family. Ma Huali was extremely excited, and was not affected by today's accident in the slightest. He was like a warrior born as a "Gladiator".
The MiG fighter in "Rising Clouds" may disappoint you! The air war on
"Rising Clouds" is actually a complete simulation confrontation. The most important point is that Russia will not produce "even-number" MiG series fighters. The so-called "MiG 28" that appeared in the movie
is actually a U.S. F5 fighter, whose performance is closer to that of the MiG series of fighters at the time and belongs to a multifunctional fighter. The service time is relatively early, and the US military was equipped in 1962, but this fighter is not the main fighter. Because of its superior performance and low price, F5 mainly serves the allies.
A well-known game company restored the classic aerial fighting scene of the Vietnam War.
At that time, the main fighter plane of the United States participating in the Vietnam War was F4, which strangled the MiG-21 in the air. Ma Huali's father was driving an F4 fighter plane and died bravely in order to rescue his three companions. This was the encounter with the instructor "Viper" (played by Tom Skerritt), and Ma Huali fully understood the cause of his father's death.
is always proud of his father. He does not believe that such an excellent pilot will die in an accident. In the first half of this movie, the hero's memorial to his father is constantly interspersed. He Ye Ge, Zha Li, and "Viper" all talked about missing their father, deepening his father's influence on Ma Huali, and even rising to the level of faith.
Under the Cold War mentality, the MiG series fighters against F15/F16 are mainly MiG-27/29. The MiG-27 and MiG-29 are only part of the PHI plan. PHI is the abbreviation of "Advanced Tactical Fighter" in Russian. Due to the outstanding performance of the MiG-29 in air combat, the United States was forced to abandon the F-15 fighter and develop a new type of fighter.
The real opponent of the MiG-29 is the later model of F16. The F-16 equipped with JHMCS and AIM-9X has reversed the disadvantage of many years of dogfighting.
"Rising Clouds", Tom is self-destructive or self-salvation
From the movie "Rising Clouds", it can be seen that the US Navy went to the Indian Ocean for missions. When encountering the MiG-28, all the combatants were waiting for them. At this time, Ma Huali blamed himself because of an accident in the air confrontation, and his good brother "Wild Goose" died. Let him rush to the battlefield, still immersed in the grief of his brother's death.
In the last climax of "Rising Aspirations", first, the early radar detected errors in the MiG fighter, and "Hollywood" was shot down by the sudden MiG 28 fighter.
, the lone ranger who was acting as a substitute at this time, Ma Huali clenched the dog tag of "Wild Goose" and rushed to the sky to participate in the battle. The ice guy and werewolf on one side were entangled terribly by five MiG 28s, and they screamed for support from the base.
Mahuali who was on the battlefield was still suffering from mental distress, which directly led to cowardice. This allowed the commander to suppress the fire and inquire about sending another fighter. The reply is that the fighter is malfunctioning, and it takes 10 minutes to wait. These 10 minutes meant the end of the battle, and it would be meaningless for the fighter to take off again.
"Rising Clouds" has an authentic and happy ending. Brother Tom is not only "fame and fortune". Why is Ma Huali judged by an accident? First of all, Mahuali's navigator-"Wild Goose" is regarded as his family, and the departure of "Wild Goose" from the emotional level makes him unacceptable. Secondly, due to an argument with the ice guy in the air fight with the coach, he forcibly attacked the target. The "wild goose" accidentally died when the two of them were in an emergency bomb bay. Before adding
, cooperated with "Hollywood" to chase the imaginary enemy, Mahuali's "personal hero" doctrine prevailed, resulting in both "venomous snakes" being shot down. And the ice guy didn't like Mahuali at first, maybe in the eyes of ice guy. The retirement of the Jaguar is also directly related to Mahuali.
Mahuali’s aerial combat instructor "Joker" felt that he was flying by feeling and was very dangerous, which coincided with the ice guy. Of course, people who rely too much on "feeling" to do things are mentally fragile, emotionally controlled, and poorly resistant to stress.
From the accident of Wild Goose, we can see that Ma Huali showed a series of mental depression, and finally almost dropped out of school. And to untie the bell, you must tie the bell, no matter what type of person, he should face life, face himself, and embrace the one he loves.
When Ma Huali was about to withdraw from the battlefield, he looked at the dog tag of the "Wild Goose" in his hand and clung to it. The fighters pulled back and returned to the battlefield. This made the brothers on the mothership excited. MCA used the ultimate driving skills to lay down three MiG 28s. When
returned to the aircraft carrier, Mahuali received heroic cheers and praise. Charlie also came to congratulate him on his victory, which made Mahuali overjoyed. At the same time, many people changed their views on the "Lone Ranger" Ma Huali, and he also decided to become an instructor at the fighter weapon school.
"Rising Clouds" summary
There is no doubt that the end of "Rising Clouds" is the "authentic" happy ending. The audience gets sensory satisfaction from a tense and exciting dogfight between fighters. And Tom’s wonderful self-salvation made the audience feelThe film did not leave any regrets, and it also made Atango fans.
Brother Tom's career stepped into the fast lane, and he stayed on the Avenue of Stars in the same year. Subsequent "Rain Man", "Born on July 4th" and "Mr. Sweet" were regarded as classics by the film industry.
The veteran is not dead, but withered.
The sequel of "Rising Clouds" has also been hotly discussed by fans in recent years. After 32 years, it has been put on the big screen. Expectation is not a new tune, the director is the well-known director Joseph Kosinski, who has previously collaborated with Atango in "Lands of Lost Wars". We hope that it will have the taste of the old "Rising Clouds", and not stick to the previous routines, and hope that the new "Rising Clouds-Lone Ranger" will have a different label.
