Jackie Chan

After brushing the second time, the film was slightly improved, but it was still 7 points, and the original judgment was maintained. I took back the comment that I said too many lines and too messy when I watched the first time. I have a clearer understanding of many details and the logic of the whole story when I watched it the second time. It’s just that this kind of political conspiracy film is not good for me. Really indifferent. On the whole, it is very similar to Hurricane Rescue and Killing the Wolf and Greed the Wolf, but due to the political nature of the film, it is not as good as these two films in terms of viewing and portrayal of human nature. Jackie Chan has contributed very good acting skills, and this film can reach me. The main reason for the 7 points in the standard, Jackie Chan's best film in the past ten years is hard to say, but the best acting film should not be controversial. BTW, both times I watched it at Wanda, but it seems that there is not much difference between the Wanda general hall and the imax hall? The experience is almost the same, very good.

    Jackie Chan looks almost eighty, but still can't mess with it

    The Chinese dubbing is fine, but Zhang Guoli is actually invited to play the role. Zhang Guoli's voice is so special that my mind is full of the romantic emperor in "Kangxi Weifu Private Interview". Too dramatic. The movie is generally good.

The Foreigner quotes

  • Liam Hennessy: You killed my dog.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: Dog's fine. Just sleeping.

  • Quan Ngoc Minh: [opens coat] I'm wearing a bomb. Anyone comes in, I touch it one, then we die. Now, give me the names.

    Liam Hennessy: They claim to be IRA, but I don't know who they really are. I'm doin' everything I can to find out who's responsible.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [puts gun to Hennessy's head] You're lying! Who killed my daughter?

    Liam Hennessy: I'm sorry! I truly don't know yet!

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [pause] The explosive the bombers use, it's Semtex-H?

    Liam Hennessy: [nervous] Yes. Yes. You know about Semtex?

    Quan Ngoc Minh: I know Semtex-H. During the war Czechs make for the army. Good for bombs and traps.

    Liam Hennessy: In Vietnam?

    Quan Ngoc Minh: Yes. Many American people died by Semtex-H. Now, IRA use to kill my daughter. That's ironic.

    Liam Hennessy: I've read your history. We both know about war. We've both tried to put it behind us. You and me, we're alike.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [backhands Hennessy in the face] We are NOTHING alike. You're NOTHING! You kill women and children! NAMES!

    Liam Hennessy: To Almighty God, I don't know!

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [cocks the gun]

    Liam Hennessy: WAIT! Wait! I've set a trap for them when they use the next bomb. When they claim responsibility for the next bombing, they'll use a code word, telling the police they're IRA. I've changed that code word. So when they use it, I'll know.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [lowers the gun] You have one day.

    Liam Hennessy: ...what if they don't set off a bomb by then?

    Quan Ngoc Minh: Twenty-four hours.

    [leaves]

    Liam Hennessy: ...Jesus. Oh, Jesus, sweet Jesus.
