Far less than one

The commercial vibe of Heroine No. 2 is really too strong. Publicly use the method of hyping heroine No. 1 and arouse everyone's fond memories of No. 1 to make No. 2 a success at the box office. This has almost wiped it out.

The plot of the second is quite boring, and the characters are far less vivid and brilliant than the one. Erxin added a protagonist Long Si, played by veteran actor Shi Tian. Shi Tian's acting skills are reasonable, but the problem is that the image of Long Si is really lacking in charm: in the first half of the film, he is in a stupid state and has been dragging everyone back; after regaining his sanity, he did not show much of the boss's demeanor, with average marksmanship. , The defense is very poor, and he is often shot. Ahao and Aken are the only ones to help. Only the advantage of super long hp (in the end, he seemed to have hit six shots in total, and all of them were injured in the upper body, so he was alive and well. of). It's really hard for Ahao and Aken to call each other "fourth uncles", and they call them so silly; this fourth uncle is also calm and has no shame.

In this episode, Chow Yun-fat becomes Xiao Ma’s twin brother Aken, which is one of the few highlights in the film. This role first appeared in a Chinese restaurant in New York. Aken was a killer and now he is a restaurant owner without washing his hands. The scene in the restaurant reflects Fa Ge’s talent for acting. He imitated Robert De Niro vividly, including De Niro adding a "huh" to the mood after speaking, and the classic "you talking to me?" ". And later, he had many cool and exciting shootout scenes, such as the scene where he shot while sliding down the stairs, and later appeared in "face off" (face off). I have to admit that holding the gun in Fa Ge's hand is different from holding it in the hands of others! Fage playing guns is cool and unique!

In the movie, there is a killer named Xiao Zhuang on the side of the villain who is also very cool. This assassin never speaks or cares about money, only likes to compete with marksmanship. Ha ha, do you remember, the killer played by Fa Ge in "Blood Two Heroes" is also called Xiao Zhuang. It seems that the prototype of Xiaozhuang in "Chat" is from Erli, the true character of a hero, ha.

    "If you think that there is no good person in this world and no children who can help you, why can't you help yourself? If you want to get sick, I will get sick with you, if you want to give up, I will give up with you , you want to starve to death, I will starve to death with you."

    It can already be seen that Wu and Xu are not looking at each other. The gunfire scene is very personal and stylized. Old Wu's slow motion and Xu's sharp editing alternately appear, which has lost the integrity of the first part to some extent. . Looking at the two films, I still like Uncle Jian the most, and Zeng Jiang spent his performances.
