Just a small thought

For the first time in my life, such a formal film review was written for "Police Story 2013". She is not my favorite movie of the year, without the hilarious laughter of "Crazy Primitives", without the surprise of Tsui Hark's style recreated in "The Dragon King of Di Renjie", without the soaring enthusiasm after "The Fast and the Furious", without "Nothing" The aftertaste after "People's Zone", to put it more simply, I am a very lazy person, I only occasionally pretend to be B to mark the few movies I have watched, and I am too lazy to write short reviews. Today, I am writing this review because I feel she has been unfairly judged and judged.
5.4 points, for "Personal Customization", I laughed without saying a word. In terms of Feng Director's skill, by the end of the year, I made such a New Year's film, and I laughed, but I didn't care, because the film was not sincere enough. And "Police Story 2013", to be honest, the progress of the second half of the plot really surprised me.
Last week, my eldest brother went to Kuaiben to promote the new drama. When I watched the show, I felt that he was really talkative. He has been in Blablala~~ but when playing games, his calmness and composure really made people have to praise Baodao. How do you expect a man in his late 60s to fly over the eaves and jump between city buildings like Spider-Man? Chen Jiaju, who can't be beaten, no matter how hurt it hurts, just jump up and rub his hands, laugh, and make a few funny expressions. The only label, so that we all ignore that he is an actor, who said that an actor must rely on fighting to break into the film and television circle, and being able to fight should be a blessing for him instead of covering up other lights.
When I came to the punk-like bar, I felt cramped and awkward, but also with the anxiety and expectation of wanting to see my daughter. The big brother handled a series of actions and expressions very well. Facing the boyfriend introduced by the rebellious daughter, saying "I don't agree" suddenly reminded me of my father. Dad also works outside for a long time. I couldn't get close to him for a long time. All decisions were made by me telling him, not discussing with him. He was afraid that I would get hurt, and he was even more afraid that I would be unhappy. So anxious and helpless. Far too far, I just want to say that the dragon girl in the eldest brother's film has transformed into his daughter, which shows that the eldest brother can accurately judge what kind of role he is suitable for at what stage, and Lian Po is old.
Jing Tian also mentioned in the fast book that the eldest brother is always preaching, which is estimated to be the true character in the film. . The traditional image of the Chinese-style patriarch is also well represented. Including the last scene of saving my daughter, holding a gun to my forehead, and then the last words that made the girl sitting next to me cry for 10 seconds. . . Although there are many shortcomings, the image of the father who loves the father is very full.
Let's talk about the image of the mainland police. I really didn't expect it before watching it, maybe the image of Chen sir was too popular in the past, or there were too few police in the mainland on the big screen, so that I couldn't get into the play for a long time. But a little friend said it very well, Zhong Wen can definitely be selected for moving China that year. Handling hundreds of cases a year, conscientiously, with a low salary (the sofa brother laughed at the big brother's wallet), life and death (the shooting incident mentioned in the negotiation between the two), and especially true (automatic application for punishment), very brave, Honesty, humane (donation to the robber's old mother), and more importantly, because of handling the case, he indirectly caused his wife's car accident, and missed the last side, so that Miaomiao broke with her. PS brother was really heartbroken when he cried in the hospital, regretting his heartache and helpless appearance.
So what I understand is that the eldest brother is more of a negotiator, but he is so good that he is still the vanguard. Although the scene of rescuing and buying meat skewers on the building was short, it was very exciting. The handsome fall from the building, and there was someone screaming behind him. . . Jumping up and down lightly in a confined space is simply a small case. The most unforgettable part is the fight in the cage. When I watched it at the time, I felt that the beginning of this fight was very meaningless, as if it was forced into it. Now that I think about it, this feeling is even stronger. . . The previous sparring scene appeared in the memory, relying on the flash to help the narrative, which seemed untargeted and unpleasant, in order to make the conflict more obvious, and to appease the audience, it was worth the fare of Jackie Chan action scenes. A fight is essential. But it's too cruel, it's really too cruel, the whole person fell to the barrel, the head hit the table, the fingers were broken and dislocated, all of which made people feel sad, how can this be Chen sir who can't be beaten to death, it's just a skill And the old cop with good guts, oh, I'm finally in, this is a brand new "Police Story".
The ingenious arrangement of the scenes in the cage is because the emotions of the audience and the audience of the film are highly consistent. From the very beginning, I was full of confidence to encourage him to fight, to the distressed when I saw him losing to a ruthless opponent, to persuading him to fight. Give up the anxiety that he didn't listen to, and finally let go of the dangling heart when he finally counterattacks the guy who beat Muay Thai. Without the belief that he will definitely win, there are more expectations. It's just that I was beaten so badly, can I not do this next time, my little heart ouch.
As I said earlier, the second half surprised me because of the intense conflict and tense atmosphere created in the back, and the Rashomon who talked about each other also made the suspenseful feeling come out. Of course, Zhou Xiaoou's malicious behavior and the handsome blasting and attacking of the SWAT brothers are also highlights. It was the first half that made me appear in the play. The two fought with each other when they were dealing with each other. The editing was too fast to reshape the rhythm, but this too obvious editing style was too obvious, and the audience realized the existence of editing. It's easy to play, so it looks fragmented and confusing. It may be that entering this confined space is too early, and it is easy to cause fatigue.
However, the details don't affect the narrative. What bothers me is the cause of the whole hijacking incident, which is the drugstore robberies and killings, and the motive influences the behavior. Wu Jiang's motive was to find out the truth of his sister's death, which is why he took hostages. But this is slightly thin. You are a Thai boxing champion, you have the money to fight, and you set up such a dead end in five years just to hear the truth from these mouthfuls running on trains, then it would not be easier for you to deal with them in private. Besides, brother-in-law, Boss, you have spent a lot of time on this iron wall, beware of doubts everywhere, why didn't you check his background first, and you stayed for five years just to see how brother-in-law dealt with those few people at the time, and it didn't make sense. However, this reversal is really interesting, that is, it is a bit anticlimactic. After so long in the front, the truth revealed later is a little unwilling.
Emma, ​​I don't know what I'm talking about anymore. I don't think the actors are bad. Even Miss Jing Tian didn't have many scenes left for her daughter. She completed the vase task fairly well, and she might be ruined if she had too many scenes. Female reporters are so annoying. Is this mocking an industry?

    The most insincere police story, can this plot be more vulgar and boring, the rhythm control is poor (full of piss), all the action scenes are in the trailer - Jackie Chan is really old!
