Deep existence

It’s really a good-looking movie to watch in the middle of the night.

In my impression, it seems that the so-called Chinese celebrity guides will be mixed up with a big dog to eat shit when they try to take small trembling steps when they want to get out of China and rush to the world. , Not only can't let a fart sound internationally, but it is also stinky in China. Such examples are not numerous, but of course this is not my opinion on Wu Yusen who filmed .

At first glance, I can't help but feel that this is simply Hong Kong The American version of the gunfight movie. Of course, Director Wu used the old routines such as the gunfire and the white pigeon that are not very reasonable but are permeated with silly and innocent beauty. Even under the cover of golden retriever and blue-eyed foreigners, the personal style of the film is still It is obvious. And is undoubtedly a higher level compared with Director Wu's previous shootouts, and high-tech factors do not affect the smoothness and flatness of the film at all, and this change is probably due to cultural differences- -Of course it’s not because of the lack of science fiction in Chinese culture. Chinese gunfight movies emphasize righteousness, morality, love, justice, etc. Social personality and individual personality are always in conflict, so personal responsibility With the soft social rules, the pain is overwhelming. And when the scene is transferred to the United States, what hangs above the individual is his own sense of existence, and the alienation and pain of the individual after this sense of existence is distorted.

In terms of plot setting, it is very It's painful and exciting, there is no too long procrastination plot, the process of more than two hours is fascinating. But such a turbulent story inevitably has some rigidities in some details, such as the scene of the fierce battle at Sasha's house. Why is there a room full of mirrors in the middle of the game? Obviously, it is to show the scene where Aiqi and Kans are shot through the mirror, but since I like this scene very much, I silently accept this unreasonable room. Aiqi's dead son, he was injured at the beginning and healed at the end. I have watched it N times anyway, maybe it was still new at the time? It's a pity that I didn't see it at the time.

Originally, I didn't see Nicholas Keqi and John Travos . Like it, that was the age when I looked at people by face and they were too small and sturdy. As a result, the first John movie I watched was , and the first Cage was , How can I continue to dislike them? Also, Nicholas Cage's "bad guy" is really amazing. I
even found the Mike in "Desperate Housewives " in the film.

    It turned out to be Wu Yusen's work. When I watched it, I wondered how foreigners came up with this complicated thing, and I can see the shadows of "The True Colors of Heroes" and "Blooding Two Heroes". . .

  • Sean Archer: [as he walks out of his office] Any word from the LAPD intelligence? If there IS such a thing?

    Loomis: Not yet, sir.

    Sean Archer: Of course not, because we're a covert anti-terrorist team that is so secret, that when we snap our fingers NOTHING HAPPENS!
