      Captain China, I think it's okay

      In 1996, the action-adventure comedy crime sci-fi "Black Man"

      discovered that, science fiction films, there are still science fiction films in China! Although many people have bad reviews, I personally think it's not bad. It's a bit like Batman, China's Captain America. .

      Li Lianjie, Liu Qingyun, Karen Mok, Huang Qiusheng, Chen Hao, look so young, and producer Tsui Hark, in fact, although this movie is not comparable to Hollywood blockbusters in 1996, it is not bad to say....

      No one is betrayed, just feelings have nowhere to complain

      In the era of bad movies, we start to feel nostalgic. As a result, some old films with not particularly good ratings were turned out, saying that they were let down by that era.

      The average 6.7, at least for this film, is a fair rating, it's neither underrated nor overrated by the times. If it is not so comprehensive and average, perhaps, it can really be a greater, at least a better work.

      If the action scenes can be more freehand or more violent, at least it's an excellent...

      Blame me for not seeing the world back then?

      Recently I have been thinking, what exactly is the first film of Jet Li that I saw? Shaolin Temple? Shaolin boy? Elite hero? Zhongnanhai bodyguard? I really can't remember. However, what is certain is that it is a kung fu movie with a punch to the flesh.

      At that time, I was a girl at heart, and I quite liked watching his movies, and then I saw the black man.

      What is this? Godly! Not real at all! It's all bullshit! It blows out of bounds! not good looking! No fun!

      Later,...

      Personally, I think Jet Li's best fighting film is modern.

      To be honest, this one is my favorite among Jet Li's action movies. Moreover, there is Liu Qingyun in it. Liu Qingyun is one of the best actors in my opinion. During the birthday greeting, from smirking to not smiling, it's just a simple expression change. Instantly showed two different temperaments. This acting alone won me over. Jet Li's skill plus Liu Qingyun's acting skills. Is there any reason not to watch this movie? Of course, there are some plots in it that are worth complaining...

    Evaluation action

    "Black Mask" chooses urban superheroes as the theme. Although its demeanor and power may be exaggerated or even deified, it can undoubtedly satisfy the surreal fantasy of the general public under various pressures and lead to "spiritual resistance" to social contradictions; In addition to the actual combat, "Black Mask" also adds high-tech weapons such as firearms and explosions, and Black Mask's "hood + black + cloak" post-modern...

      Michael: [removes the black mask] Thank you. I'm honoured. I'd rather die... then live like you.

      Commander Hung: Have it your way then, teacher! I'm happy to oblige you!

    • Commander Hung: [in the gas chamber] I'm touched teacher. You seemed choked up by our reunion.

    • Inspector 'Rock' Shek: [after a 701 member cut off his own hand to break free of handcuffs] I had the key!
