      Jianghu and fairy tales

      Years ago, I didn't feel much at first glance, just like watching a martial arts movie, there were a lot of fight scenes in the film. Recently, the second and third brushes have been baptized in the heart and shocked. It is a film with connotation and content.

      The main line of the story is relatively clear, the plot is progressive and reasonable, and the theme is sublimated naturally. The female protagonist is pregnant, which is the first point of the story,...

      Does it matter if there are thieves

      The main line of the film is a touching story of abandoning evil and turning to good. Is it something to do with thieves.

      The following does not refer specifically to this film.
      Recently, I revisited a few good domestic films, and I feel that our storytelling ability is still there. Although sometimes less imaginative than Americans. I feel more and more that simply telling a good story is valuable. It doesn't have to be how good the special effects are, or how complicated the...

      A World Without Thieves

      After the final exam, watching TV with my mom and dad feels like it has been a long time since there are so many movie channels. I haven't seen a good movie for a long time. Suddenly, my dad is very excited and says that the next movie is "No Thieves in the World"

      At first, I didn't like the role of Rene Liu and Andy Lau's hairstyle, but it seemed like I was asking from a silly root: Are people more ruthless than wolves, I started to think that this...

      no thief

      At that time, when I watched World Without Thieves, I was most impressed by Rene Liu, the character who helped Wang Baoqiang at that time, and then in order to keep his money, I was very moved at that moment, because what can I say, between people, between human nature and human nature It is very difficult to understand. How can I put it, this human nature is very complicated. You don’t know when he changed, and you feel that good and evil are a matter of a moment. He has that line, and evil...

      Only the cloud knows

      cloud 1

      The baby was brought up by the villagers since he was a child. He ate hundreds of meals and wore hundreds of clothes. Any surname among the hundreds of surnames will be his surname, which is equivalent to no surname. Even his age is remembered by the village cadres. , I don't need the baby to worry about everything. If people don't worry about it, they will not grow up quickly and will not grow, so the baby looks silly and ignorant. The...

      At the end of the movie, the scene of Rene Liu sitting alone in a restaurant and eating roast duck in tears broke the hearts of many people. In order to give the child in her womb and herself a clean life, she was determined to be a good person. In the end, she lost all her innocence for keeping a child, and the fool who woke up continued to dream of "a world without thieves"...

      (8/10) Back then, all the stars in the movies could act a little rustic, but now the "poor students" in TV dramas live in a mansion, eat a big set meal and look well-oiled, but say that they are poor people from the countryside who have just entered the...

      To end in tragedy can be considered to make the audience think about it. The golden sentence "Uncle Li is very angry and the consequences are very serious" is still vividly remembered today. Then there is the idiot Wang...

    Positive Reviews

    "A World Without Thieves" is a completely impossible story. In the film, the idiot who came out to work in the countryside is beaten to death and does not believe that there are thieves in the world. This kind of stubborn "stupid" is rare in today's society, and even more rare are the two big thieves Wang Bo and Wang Li. A self-defeating, unbelievable choice to fulfill a fool's dream of "A World Without Thieves". These two...

    Negative Reviews

    From the overall point of view of the film, Xiaogang Feng has great ambitions and wants to say goodbye to the traces of the previous sketches. It's really Hollywood in terms of music, architecture, photography, etc., but it loses the wit, simplicity and self-deprecation that are most important in his original style, which is why there are so few impressive passages and lines in this film   . ("Morning News" commented)
    Although Xiaogang...
