when the title was changed to "The Lonely Agent". I really feel like a waste without the original title. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a heavenly creature. First of all, the title of the film explains the relationship between the protagonists. The main line of the story also revolves around the fetters between this pair of friends who have lost their lives. In addition, the "uncle" in Korean culture is inherently ambiguous. The colors add a bit of flavor to the movie.
This movie didn't get any awards that year, but it didn't prevent this movie with a plot full of flaws from becoming a classic of genre movies. What is a classic? A classic is something that can stand the test of time. Watching this movie is still moving. ). Although the style is a bit biased towards the personal heroism of Hollywood, if you pick all of them, the audience has already been bombarded and numb, but you have to admire the delicate handling of emotions by Korean directors. Because of this, the third-rate book was made into a first-class movie. , coupled with Yuan Bin's acting skills online, there is no roaring scene in the whole film, but the emotions of grief and anger are well portrayed, and loneliness and forbearance can be deduced by just looking at the eyes. As long as Korean movies are mentioned, this can't be avoided. one.
When I watched it for the first time, I admitted that it was based on blood and violence. The fighting was very exciting, and the visual effects were very realistic. But when I watch it for the second and third time, good movies are identified at this time. You can find a lot of information, plots, and even subtle emotional changes that you missed before, resulting in a new understanding. When these are "different" from the past, the sense of pleasure is very strong.
For example, the last sentence Xiaomi said to his uncle before he was arrested, "But I don't hate you. If I hate you, I won't be liked by anyone." There is something suspiciously delicate and pretentious, but now I think that Xiaomi just She should not be able to hate the only person who is willing to accept her. To put it to the extreme, she has no choice at all. Either she will die alone, or she will choose to forgive the uncle who walked away when she needed help. This is completely Xiaomi's sincere words, director The understanding of loneliness is much deeper than ordinary people.
This is an action movie, but what makes the movie stand out is emotion. There are too many elements of "loneliness" in my interpretation, so that this time I don't pay much attention to the action scene: Uncle picked out the sausage that he brought home for a long time, Intentionally let Xiaomi see and eat together. Xiaomi said that everyone thought the uncle was a gang member, and the uncle cautiously probed: Do you also think I am a bad person? After Xiaomi put the flowers that his uncle gave to his deceased wife, the uncle got angry and snatched the bouquet. The atmosphere of harmony dropped to freezing point. I really wanted to praise Kim Sae Ron's acting skills. I carefully observed his smile at that time, and it suddenly disappeared. It was really at a loss after being frightened, I felt pity.
Heroism advocates fighting for all justice, but it is too unrealistic. It is precisely because the uncle has flesh and blood that he is worthy of love and sympathy. He is not for punishing evil and promoting good. After Xiaomi's confession at the alley, the uncle felt the most guilt. Hou, Xiaomi was taken away, he felt scared, the fear can be said to be second only to the pain of losing his wife, he was trying his best to avoid the pain of losing Xiaomi, so the uncle went back and tried his best to save Xiaomi. In the end, the villains were all killed, and when the uncle wanted to kill himself with a gun, Xiaomi appeared and kept asking uncle, are you here to save me? Xiaomi cried and was only rescued, and "my uncle didn't want me".
There are also some details foreshadowing. After the uncle called the police for the first time, the police said that they would send the Earth Defense Team over, which really hacked a handful of South Korean police. There is also the emotional description between Xiaomi and the killer man. From the beginning, he helped Xiaomi cover his eyes to avoid seeing Xiaomi’s mother being tortured. When he was in the ant nest, Xiaomi helped him put a Band-Aid on his forehead, and the killer man burst the eyeball in the glass jar ( Because that's not Xiaomi's), and the killer man's plan to fight against the uncle's tough hero, Xi Hero, makes it reasonable for the killer man to save Xiaomi. The director is kind, the uncle and Xiaomi can at least have each other, suppressing the loneliness of the whole movie and being redeemed in the last scene of the hug, I believe that it is not only the uncle's heart that warms, such a cliché happy ending I like very much .
