Kiss of the Dragon evaluation action
2021-12-31 08:02
"Kiss of the Dragon" not only has a wonderful martial arts design, beautiful, and unique ingenuity, showing Jet Li's real skills of hard fist and hand-to-hand combat, but also Jet Li's acting skills have become more mature, and the star charm has also been overwhelmed. Jackie Chan. With a clear and active theme of the film, Jet Li successfully portrayed a screen image of a Chinese hero.
This film starring Jet Li and providing a synopsis, written and produced by the French director Luc Besson, is a typical European-style trash. The plot is absurd, one of the characters is rooted, and the lines are incompetent. Not as good as an ordinary Hong Kong film. The most idiotic character in the film is probably the police detective. This heinous villain has the potential to manipulate the global underworld, is lawless and has a strong abuse. Such exaggerated characterization in previous action movies will at least be "badly emotional". The "bad and bad" bad guys are like those who lack motivation and good people. They are the performance of the editor's extremely poor imagination and cannot be "facialized". To describe it, because it will invisibly raise it-the "face makeup" of classical opera is a kind of exaggeration of the formula, and this formula is the "style" and the "sentiment." The heroine played by Bridget Fonda has a heavy burden on her shoulders. Not only does she have to interpret the cruelty of an abused and kind-hearted prostitute with a sense of credibility, but she seems to have provoked all the acting skills of the film. Girders. She is also the only character with a few decent lines, perhaps to make up for her lack of "big fight". Of course, no one would mistake Jet Li for Tom Hanks. People asked him at a high price to let him show off his skills. Please rest assured that his martial arts scenes are very solid. Although photography uses a lot of medium shots and a lot of fast cutting, making martial arts scenes too much like a sharp knife, lacking a sense of overallity and rhythm, but his movement is still vigorous. It is enviable. In addition to the martial arts scenes, the photography of "The Raptors" is also good, with a lot of effort in composition and color, but unfortunately, it is still not possible to package the uninteresting violence into a pleasing entertainment. In the words of American Salon film critics, it can only make "trash look a little more beautiful."
