      "Meslin, Death Instinct"

      After reading the last episode, the literal translation of the name should be "Meslin, Death Instinct", and the name of the lower part is generally used here.
       
      It feels like a conservative way of shooting, and Jean-François Richet's control has nothing to say. Mainly based on narrative, the switching is very fast, the plot is very full, and the feelings are deliberately diluted. Maybe it will be better to watch the two together.

      Ennemi Public No 1

      Five stars, this one I give to this legendary character.
      Maybe I didn't have any expectations for this film, but after looking at it, I found that it turned out to be much better than I imagined.
      The use of the camera at the beginning of the film is quite attractive. Later, after reading some evaluations, many authors believe that the subsequent plots are too memorized, and the accounts are running. On the contrary, I don't care too much about these, but there are some places where...

      Anything you start doing has become part of your instinct

      Anything you start doing has unknowingly become a part of your instinct.

      When he raises the gun and keeps pulling the trigger to kill the first person, the subconscious identity of the person has been irreversibly formed. All acts of repentance are used to suppress their own nature, but within the limits of social ethics of conduct

      the other two

      Two other people were on my mind all the time while watching this movie.
          What if Al Pacino played the thief? It can be seen that Vincent Cassel has put a lot of effort into designing a lot of small actions to enrich the characters, and he also has a certain level of interpretation of the changes of this legendary thief over the past 20 years, but I always feel that it is quite satisfactory. Ma Zi, facing the domineering and domineering reporters, driving a car with a submachine gun and...

    Evaluation action

    The whole work not only combines the shooting techniques of many types of films, but also adheres to the style of American commercial films   . (Sohu Review)
    Director Jean-François Richet takes the audience back to the 1960s and 1970s as much as possible to experience Merlin's thrilling and arrogant actions. The film inherits many successful and classic elements, and combines the shining points of road films, suspense films, police and...
