The best thing about the whole movie is the shooting of close combat. The actor with a secret agent background moves very quickly. The highlight is not only with Yiboduo, but also the neatness and stability of the shot. When fighting with a bunch of people, you will also be cut by the enemy, and when you are fighting with the enemy, you will not leave any room for the enemy. The scene is bloody and violent, but it makes people feel reasonable. Especially in the final fight with a short knife and a master, the director did not spend too much time fighting, but let the audience watch a very exciting scene. In the frontal shooting used, Yuan Bin's actions are completely exposed to the audience, as if Yuan Bin was slashing at the screen, and blood was sprinkled in front of the camera. Both of them used short knives, but the sound of the knife wind was just as clear and audible, plus the unbelievable look in the master's eyes when he died, the whole fight made people feel unfinished.
The basic thread of the plot revolves around that little kid. Xiaomi is a strong girl. Stealing is a last resort. Her mother gave birth to her before she got married. She was called a trash can since she was a child. Every time her mother who took drugs saw her, she said that she would die together. The mother loves her and will warn the uncle not to do anything beyond morality to Xiaomi, but what can a drug addict bring her child, she even witnessed the torture of her mother before her death. She always told her that the uncle is the last bottom line. Although this person doesn't talk much, there is always a touch of warmth in everything he does, such as giving her a little more money when she is a thing, such as helping her stop her mother and saying that she is not at his house. When she was caught stealing a wallet by the police, she pointed to the uncle in the distance and said it was her father, but the uncle pretended not to know her. Later, Xiaomi said to the uncle, I am just very sad, even you hate me so much, no one in the world likes me, I don't hate you, I just say there is such a thing. The director showed a child born unexpectedly at the bottom of society to the audience, but this child is not weak, she is strong, she does not hate her mother, and she does not complain about her life. Beneath the seemingly optimistic appearance is a devastated soul, the only thing she can talk about. The object is the uncle of the pawnshop next door, she yearns for warm feelings and beautiful nails. Missing my mother, the reason for helping the ant nest is also to want to see my mother. A child who makes people feel pitiful, but will make you admire in your heart. The director has good intentions and tells the children that even if life is unsatisfactory, they should be optimistic and move forward. There will always be people who will lend a helping hand to help them, but the most important thing is to be strong and independent. In the end, the uncle did not entrust Xiaomi to anyone, but told her that she can live alone and live strong.
The only shortcoming is that the whole film became Yuan Bin's special show. I don't know if he performed so well that he blocked out the light of others, or the director was biased and focused on the details of Yuan Bin. Actually it is the former.
