For an action movie, violence, kung fu, and humanity have always been indispensable elements; however, the key to success or failure is not how deep the action is, but more on whether the literary drama is brilliant. In recent years, Chinese-language films have continued to diversify. No matter what the theme of the film, there will be more or less love lines. There is no love factor in "Slaying the Wolf 2". It has to be said that it is a great attempt by the director; not only In this way, the rich story layers and the interpretation of the contradictions of human nature are the subtleties of the film.

The opening of the film interprets the darkness of human nature infinitely, and uses rhythm pictures and video language to complete a spiritual dialogue with the audience. In addition, on the basis of bloody violence, "Slaying the Wolf 2" also skillfully integrates emotional clues with satirical plots; behind each character is the helplessness to reality and the predicament they are facing at the moment. , but also face the dilemma of saving others and saving oneself. Thai prison guard Achai wants to save his daughter who is suffering from leukemia, but encounters an unprecedented problem, both financially and spiritually, facing a huge crisis; and Wu Jing's undercover detective is trapped in Thailand's black prison, not only addicted to drugs Control, but also to become the target of the criminal group's revenge, not only to save themselves, but also to come alone to find Uncle Hua; when the war of survival desire is staged, we can't help but sigh the complexity and darkness of human nature.

Under the shroud of darkness, some people choose to exchange for short-term survival, and some people choose to face it bravely, and different choices will interpret different lives; in the face of the threat of death, the boss chooses to do whatever it takes to exchange Under the guidance of her father, the daughter of the Thai prison guard faced life bravely and optimistically, and looked forward to the appearance of a miracle. When she tenaciously planted the seeds of life, she stood firm in the crisis-ridden world. Breaking her on the ground, how can it not make people feel moved?

Although the theme of the film belongs to the dark series, Achai's simplest and most simple fatherly love for his daughter makes people sigh at the brilliance and greatness of human nature. The relationship between Hong Wenbiao's brother and Mr. Hong, as well as the relationship between Achai and Sha's father and daughter, runs through the whole film. Mr. Hong's self-preservation is in sharp contrast with the mutual dependence of Achai's father and daughter. It is precisely because of this that the little girl is more prominently interpreted. mood. The appearance of wolves is all in the dreams of little girls. Although it is only an illusion, it indicates our inner thoughts when facing difficulties: either magnify infinitely, or face difficulties directly; when we magnify the fear in our hearts infinitely, we will It will create the illusion of extremely difficult difficulties. The more fearful, the more fearful, and the stronger the desire to survive. When the little girl looks directly at the wolf's fierce eyes, it is the beginning of overcoming fear.

The time to come may always come, just like Ren Dahua said, "The wrong thing always happens at the right time." If it wasn't for Wu Jing's mobile phone falling into the water, Tony Jia would not have been strong with him, and it would be even more impossible for a little girl To be saved; if there is no right or wrong, there is no suffering; if there is no loss, there is no gain; perhaps life is only by choosing between right and wrong to grow, just as there is no darkness, there is no sunshine. No one can stop the coming of the God of Darkness, but it can keep the warmth in my heart forever.

    The layout of the conspiracy has been greatly upgraded but lacked the simplicity of the previous game. Fortunately, the decrease in the compactness of the play did not affect the quality of the punch. It is believed that the audience who supported Wu Jing’s counterattack in the previous work will not hesitate to switch to Zhang Jin’s banner this time. As an almighty villain with a combination of handsomeness, sharpness and linguistic genius, the evil grace of his gestures is obviously the most deadly, even The process of hanging up does not lose dignity.

    After three and a half years, Zheng Baorui has returned to the state of "Dog Bite Dog" with a lot of similar styles. The overall depressive atmosphere, almost all characters have their own fatalistic desperate attributes. Dirty in art and excessive bloody violence in action are also in the same line. The film also intends to show off its skills in action scenes, such as the long shot in prison. Overall it's good, although I always feel that it's almost a colorful clip.
