If you don't say it, it may be difficult for you to imagine that Jackie Chan's movie will be one of the twenty favorite movies of film master Quentin Tarantino. Another Chinese movie is Tsui Hark's "The Knife". "Knife" is a typical literary film under the guise of a genre film. It almost devoted all of Tsui Hark's efforts to the literary and artistic development of martial arts films in his heyday. It is a pity that we are talking about pure genre films. These two classics can only be temporarily abandoned. Moreover, I cannot analyze such classics, even if they are superficial.

The name Jackie Chan is destined to remain in the history of world cinema, and his achievements will not be lower than Bruce Lee, let alone some film masters. The reason is simple, he created a genre unique to the genre: hilarious comedy action. Jackie Chan is a miracle of Hong Kong cinema, a miracle that cannot be replicated in a special period - a real filmmaker, a filmmaker who makes films with his life. This attitude is no longer present in Chinese-language films.

Back to the movie itself. There are five "Police Stories" series in total. It can be said that five of them are Jackie Chan's representative works, Jackie Chan's works (forgive me for using the common language of works, because now every bad film is marked with the words of a certain work , almost to the point of shameless, the work, the word is very heavy, you need to admit that it is a work, not a subtitle yourself!) The consistent style is that the shortcomings and advantages coexist, the disadvantage is that as a genre film, the story Weak, and sometimes there are obvious compromises in the story in order to highlight its action scenes, such as the fourth "Simple Mission". The advantage is that each of its films, regardless of the level, meets the basic and most difficult requirement of genre films: no urine spots in the audience.

Among them, "Police Story 3 Super Cop" is the most typical representative.

Jackie Chan movies should not be analyzed in three paragraphs, because everything is very simple (except for "Shinjuku Incident"), let's just say it. If you want a climax from start to finish, watch this movie, from the beginning, to the last scene at the end, and even the filming of the subtitles, is enough to make people overcome their physical limits and not go to the bathroom. This is probably one of the reasons why Quentin likes this movie. Simple, just, and good-looking, what could be a more difficult movie than this?

"Super Police" is definitely the most prosperous work in Jackie Chan's heyday, because it covers almost all of Jackie Chan's styles, such as humorous fights, large-scale chases, conflicting and funny local plot points, desperate video effects, and every one that makes people laugh. bridge section. Jackie Chan was brought back to his hometown by Yuanhua, Dong Pyu's wonderful performance, this kind of bridge, today's comedy movie, has almost perished!

For genre films, Chinese-language films are not without imitations, not without classics, but without the attitude of imitating and innovating. We don't need to make a movie, especially a genre movie, too complicated, too "Dark Knight", we can only pursue two words now: beautiful! Enough, enough! I thought that ordinary audiences really didn't ask much!

    It's very beautiful, I feel like sweating all the time. When Maggie Cheung said something stupid in the elevator, she sighed that the vase really didn't have a brain to delay things! I died of laughter when I went to my hometown in Foshan! For the first time, Michelle Yeoh is very beautiful! Well built! Maggie Cheung is of course the biggest vase, and she still loves her very much even if she is exposed!
