The story of "Carl's Rescue" takes place in May 1900.

From the beginning of the movie, the black and white tone makes it feel like a historical film.

This is on a battleship, and a group of Lighthouse soldiers are eating biscuits, drinking wine, and talking about their families in the cabin.

The protagonist is Carl, a Marine officer. He has two very cute children. He is currently sitting in the corner of the cabin introducing his two children and his wife to his comrades.

He has not been home to see his wife and children for two years.

The Chinese people have the impression that foreigners are very romantic, but in fact the people of the Lighthouse country are much more conservative and attach great importance to family. Family emotions are also a common topic for them, so this kind of scene in the movie can resonate very much with the fans of the Lighthouse country.

Of course, the same is true for movie fans in other countries.

But in fact, many Chinese movie fans noticed something was wrong from the very first time the subtitles appeared.

Sure enough, as the subsequent plot unfolded, they finally understood why this movie was so criticized by Chinese fans on the Internet just after it was released.

The battleship Carl was on received a military order from his superiors and was ordered to go to a country in the East to protect overseas Chinese.

Soon they formed a coalition with the navies of other countries to land offshore.

Carl's team is among them.

After landing, they settled in the Tianjin Concession and waited for the next order.

During this time, Karl's team encountered a local woman who was being persecuted while on a mission. Her husband was dead. Others in the village said she was a witch and wanted to burn her to death. Karl couldn't bear the thought of a woman being burned.

He died, so he went to negotiate with the village despite the dissuasion of his subordinates. The result was naturally a conflict with the villagers. The team of more than ten people was surrounded by hundreds of people holding various farm tools and cold weapons.

But their weapons were more advanced. After a "heroic struggle", they successfully rescued the persecuted woman, fled back to the city, and settled her in the church. In the church, they saw more people being tortured.

The persecuted locals feel deeply that this place is backward and dark.

This was a small climax of the movie. Seeing that Carl's team successfully rescued the woman, many foreign movie fans breathed a sigh of relief.

But the Chinese movie fans in the cinema frowned.

Anyone who has studied history knows the background of this story. They only saw Carl's team rescuing people, but they never thought about why they appeared in this ancient country.

Guo Le could feel that the atmosphere around him had become a little depressing.

At this time, the movie scene switched to the inland area, where a group of oriental people with excellent kung fu and strange clothes were operating in the night. They broke into a church and killed foreigners on sight. Even some people who were protected by the church

Refugees were also killed.

Compared with the previous rescue by Carl's team, it seemed so barbaric, bloody and violent.

Through the mixed editing of this group of shots, civilization and barbarism are presented to the audience in sharp contrast.

The big villain Fan Wenqiang also appeared. He was the leader of these barbarians. They captured a priest, tied him to a pillar and burned him alive along with the church.

Fan Wenqiang raised his arms and shouted: "Hold the talisman and recite the mantra, and you will be possessed by the gods."

The men responded enthusiastically.

Then they continued to burn, kill and loot.

After they left, a nun came out of the cellar with a local child. The child cried out "Mom", but his mother had been swallowed up by the fire. The kind-hearted nun took the child to escape and went to the consulate for help.

shelter.

On the other side of the consulate, ambassadors from various countries were protesting to the court, demanding the banning of these illegal civil organizations and the protection of the lives and property of their overseas Chinese. However, they were rejected by the court.

The arrogant official with pigtails in the movie made many Chinese movie fans dumbfounded: were the Tatars so tough at that time?

Guo Le had already heard someone next to him couldn't help but curse.

The movie scene returned to Carl's team. Because negotiations failed, the coalition decided to send troops to protect the expatriates.

From now on there will be various war scenes.

Basically, there is a small group of people but they use various firearms to resist. Then they face enemies dozens of times their size, rushing up one by one, just like fighting zombies in a doomsday movie.

There were even masters possessed by gods among the enemies who could not be killed even after a few shots, causing considerable losses to the coalition forces.

Then the coalition forces received another distress letter from a church and decided to send a small team to rescue and escort the trapped overseas Chinese to the base camp.

This team is naturally the Carl team.

Led by Commander Karl, Carl's team went deep into the hinterland. They encountered various "monsters" along the way, and many soldiers in the team suffered casualties. They finally reached the church, but found that there were too many people trapped in the church!

Not only the clergy of this church, but also refugees gathered from other places, including people from other churches, some Western businessmen, and local refugees. With their only weapons, they were rescued by a retired military officer.

Establish a defense line under the command, and at the same time ask for help from the Empire.

Only then did the rescue mission of Carl's team begin.

Faced with so many people, the soldiers in Carl's team said that they would just take away the immigrants, but Carl finally insisted on taking the other refugees out of the church and saving both Westerners and Easterners.

Therefore, Carl's team began to formulate an evacuation plan and decided to divide the troops into two groups, diverting the enemy away while escaping under the cover of night.

As a result, when escaping, they ran into the big boss Fan Wenqiang, so Carl's team resolutely stayed to stop the enemy, and the two sides started a fierce battle.

Fan Wenqiang is amazing in this movie. He has great kung fu, can be possessed by gods, and can catch bullets with his bare hands.

In the end, Carl's team was almost completely wiped out, and he was defeated with courage and wisdom.

The strength of the film production team is outstanding. This scene was shot particularly wonderfully. It was a heart-pounding experience to watch.

"Tear~"

Guo Le was awakened from the wonderful scene of the movie by the sound of someone tearing up movie tickets.

I saw a Chinese movie fan sitting next to him tearing up his movie ticket, getting up and leaving.

Immediately, more and more Chinese movie fans in the cinema stood up, tore up their movie tickets, and left early.

Many foreigners were stunned and didn't understand what was happening.

Although the East in the movie can be seen to be the Kingdom of China, it was a perished country in the old era, not the current China.

The West has also experienced that dark feudal era, and has made movies and criticized it. Why can’t the Chinese people accept it?

A cross-border couple even quarreled as soon as they left the screening room.

The man felt that the film whitewashed the invaders and insulted his motherland, so he angrily left the venue in protest.
