The greatest helplessness in life is not to realize one's "limitation", but to blindly believe in one's "infinity".

American movie "Jedi Boys: Fast Pursuit"

Type of work: action

Main cast: Will Smith, Martin Lawrence

Story overview: Old lover and son (Isabel Aretas + Armando Armas) take revenge on the "boyfriend" (Mike)

Release Date: Released in the US on January 17, 2020

Undoubtedly, this work is one of the few "cool films" in the last quarter. The "adrenaline" soared throughout the whole process, and the action scenes, speed chases, and Jedi counterattacks were all well-shot, and it felt like being in the movie in minutes. However, please pay attention to the word "but". In addition to the audio-visual enjoyment, the core of the film (ie: the content of the story) is too rough. This does not mean "there is any problem in logic", but "settings, Especially the character relationship setting is too bloody" (old lover, illegitimate child, male junior), so many viewers reacted that when they saw the end of the film (the illegitimate child reformed, Mike released his suspicions), it was obvious that the screenwriter played a trick. A handful of feeling.

Enter the review and talk about a few points. (Personal opinion, don't spray if you don't like it)

The first is the crispness of the film . The work passes through several scenes (for example: the opening "racing", the subsequent "prison break", and the subsequent "kill"), allowing the audience to quickly enter the play and follow the rhythm of the film (this is due to the excellent sound effects, and the degree of fit with the picture is 100 %) hi. It can be seen from this point that the screenwriter and director of this play are very good at "controlling the emotions of the audience", and effectively use the perception ability of the five senses (eyes, ears) to make the audience truly feel the charm of "speed of life and death".

The second is the rhythm of the film . how to say? Three shifts, resulting in a sports car transformed into a bicycle. In short, the opening is "accurate", the middle is "procrastination", and the final "lag". The original sense of rhythm of normal output is dragged down by the bloody progress in the later stage of the story. ", actually "persuading surrender" succeeded, the generals turned into civil officials, showing a wave of good eloquence.

Finally, the blood of the story . What is this story about? Before that, let's clarify the relationship between the characters.

Armando Aretas : Isabel Aretas and Mike's illegitimate son

Isabel Aretas : The drug lord's wife who cheated on Mike

Mike : Police officer (undercover), he was a newcomer to the industry when he had an affair with Isabel

Understand the ins and outs of the characters and start reading the story. In fact, it's just a sentence---Isabel told Armando to hunt and kill the relevant people (including Mike) who killed the drug lord (ex-husband), A followed the plan, during the contest, M discovered that A was his son's Facts, so I tried to contact Isabel to understand the truth, and finally persuaded A with a "three-inch incorrupt tongue", and successfully "rebel".

The story is so "dog-blooded", it all started with "disturbed love", "blood and energy", and finally "paternity test" and "returning from lost way". It seems that the profession of "Little San" is really not easy. hehe...

end.

Screenwriter ★★☆☆☆ (the story is old-fashioned, a bit vulgar)

Director ★★★☆☆ (Controlling the picture and soundtrack, he is a good hand, but his grasp of the script is a bit poor)

Actor★★☆☆☆

Plot ☆☆☆☆ (cliché)

Visual effects ★★★★★ (stunning)

Sound ★★★★★ (scenario)

Recommendation ★★★☆☆ (audio-visual enjoyment)
