For many years, Hong Kong-made police and bandit action films such as "Dark War" and "Dark Flower" are not as violent and direct as today's Southeast Asian police and bandit movies, but they have a fishy smell of fresh seafood. It's just that the situation has been getting worse over the years, or the plot lines such as "The Big Event" and "Eavesdropping", or the lower limit of the money-smashing show such as "Reverse War", not to mention the so-called fashion police and gangster films such as "Sneak Pursuit". . The older generation of actors have given way to sissy boy and vase heroine. No wonder the box office is getting better and better, and the word of mouth is getting worse and worse, and Southeast Asian action films represented by Thai action films (although the elements of police and criminals are a little less) have risen to the top.
Although the film was directed by a British director, although the Indonesian language of the whole film made my scalp tingling, although the tactical literacy of the special police at the beginning was staggering, although there was almost no plot to speak of, the simple and violent actions covered all the ugliness. . Compared with films like "Kill Bill" that deliberately render violence, the more concise and smooth movements, Southeast Asian-style boxing and knife skills make it more like a fish in a table full of sweet and sour fish, dipped in mustard. Fresh and exciting. A million dollars made a movie with a colorful sound. In contrast, John Woo's violent aesthetics have also become the groaning of young literary and artistic youths. Jackie Chan's actions are just monkey tricks. Donnie Yen loses the sense of presence. .
happy!
