Whenever I watch a great movie, I am always excited and happy. Especially when I saw that I was able to reason the "plot development" with "everyday laws" when I was watching a movie - there was a sudden great reversal.
If I were to recommend this film, I would only say, "Please watch it, and watch it every minute and every second. No matter how much you want to quit in the middle, please watch it." I don't know the "doubt" of the plot at all, and only after watching it will I have a "feeling".
[The following contains spoilers, it is recommended to watch after the movie is over]
Teacher Fan said at the end of the film: The reason why it is called "Sweet Life" is to pay tribute to Fellini and also to appear in the bar, but to fully understand it, it is necessary to combine the whole film.
I was so excited to see the ending that I couldn't understand: such a bloody, violent crime action movie deserves this name? Still sweet? If you want to combine the whole film, I think this is a kind of "irony". The so-called "sweet life" is nothing but a sarcasm -- only a "nightmare" life that is difficult, has no answers, no results, and no end.
The reason why art is interesting and fascinating is precisely that in the process of appreciating it, everyone has a strong subjectivity, just like "a thousand people see a thousand Hamlets". What makes film more fascinating than general art is its inclusiveness, any part of it is art, and everyone will have their own focus. After watching this film, I was extremely excited and chatted with everyone about the points they were poked at: some people like dry and neat martial arts moves, some people like to see the "perfect man Lee Byung Hun" cloud falling into the mud. Some people like the instant thrill of breaking ground... I'm sure these are all interesting points, but the one that hits my heart the most: the "turn off and turn on" of the lights.
There is a serenity before the storm before starting the dense action sequence in the second half. Sun-woo returns home after making the decision not to tell his boss the truth, when he suddenly finds that he has nothing to do and calls the people around him - no one answers. Watching him put on his shirt and go out, listening to him say "people always have their own life" but appearing in the convenience store, my eyes were a little wet. Looking at his leftover beer cans, his leftover peanut shells, and his boredom at 9:40. Reminds me unconsciously of He Zhiwu in "Chongqing Forest" who eats canned pineapples and makes a phone call while standing by the telephone on the street. The sadness of "people are born alone" poured out naturally. It may also be because of such a calm and loneliness that the following plot will be pushed to a climax. Instead, the calmness makes me feel a kind of "turbulent". If loneliness is blue, then the white lights and the minimalist room should become Through the deep blue ocean.
If loneliness is not bitter, I think not being trusted, being cared about, being uncared for, and having an emotional disorder are always bitter.
No, nothing is right. I suddenly realized that it was not "bitter".
I fell into the plot before the ending, and in the "well" before the ending, I was still immersed in a beautiful dream that belonged to Sun Woo. "This is ridiculous" when Sun Woo's life was (finally) ended in the execution of the gun-selling uncle's younger brother. Next, the figure drinking coffee at the opening scene was reflected on the glass reflecting the night scene of the city, and Shanyu, who was waving his fists at the glass and doing boxing movements, completed a grand "inner cranial self-heart".
So in an instant, all the brainless protagonists of "Undead God of War" and "Bounced Shot" are reasonable. What is the reason for this in a dream? And this dream, which ended in death, seemed like a grand dream. Beauty, maybe it will never become a reality, but it is just a "heroic dream", a "self-healing in the head", and Shanyu may not be as happy and unrestrained as the self-healing in reality, and maybe even this "love of beauty" "And the death of the hero is more of a happy ending, but it's really impossible.
After watching it, I have remained in this excited state. I wrote these things in the dormitory to make the feeling of comfort after watching the film quicker. The more I wrote, the more I found that I couldn’t stop babbling. The real feeling is this: In this day and age, we are too comfortable with short and concise things, whether text, images or video. We scale back patiently, we obsess about speed, we focus on results, and in the end we either quit or get lost in the process...
"The most perfect man" can never be called such a name just because he is handsome, has a good figure, and has a good personality. I like to see the shots of actors' eyes in movies, and the level of acting can be seen almost immediately. Lee Byung-hun's eyes are always filled with different emotions, changing with his role. Lee Byung Hun, who plays Sun Woo, has "calm", "naive", "steady" and "confused" in his eyes. These contradictory emotions appear in his eyes at the same time. And this kind of eyes clearly made me feel the strength of this character, and it was too good for a boy who "doesn't understand love" to suddenly understand the "feeling of love".
"The wind is moving, the flag is moving, or the heart is moving?" The director described the conversation between the doorman and the master before and after the film. He first discussed "the moving of the wind and the tree is really heart-warming", so the director asked Shan-woo to meet Hee-joo for the first time. It can even become a gust of wind when it encounters a strong wind. The strange thing is that the wind swept up the dust and the corners of the clothes, but failed to blow the large leaves. Maybe at that moment, the director was telling us that this was just a dream about heartbeat.
"I cried because I had a beautiful dream, because the dream can't be realized." Everything is too good. Maybe it was Shanyu who had the beautiful dream, but in the end, he didn't even see his heartbeat, and he didn't even use it from his superiors. Is it a beautiful dream or a nightmare? It can only be known by the dreamer.
I just want to say that there is no end, this is a shootout film with handsome guys and high-level martial arts performances, and a shootout film with the "front" arrogant, the "middle" embarrassed, and the "tail" exuding the halo of the protagonist. Only when you see the end, will you have a sense of thoroughness that goes straight to the sky. It turns out that this is "heart", "dream", and "sweet".
