This film review does not talk about the plot, this part has been studied thoroughly, and it does not have the value of retelling
Into the title
My suggested viewing order is 12, or 123
It might be silly to say that because it's not a change of order
But what I want to express is: don't look at 3, or look at it clearly
3 is missing a lot of things compared to the first two. In fact, even if you don't watch the third, the first two can form a complete story, or even any one (it is not a trilogy, but the opening + sequel). + sequel)
Of course, watching 3 is quite necessary, and it is also the choice of almost everyone. The addition of the plot, the continuation of the feelings, the fuller plot, the addition of more big names and mainland actors, more chaotic, more fragmented, more brain-burning... and so on are enough to make you sigh after watching: "Enjoyed!"
Let's start with the topic "Unbounded Ultimate Unbounded"
123, the number has become larger, and the name has become more exaggerated, but the theme of the movie "Infinity" is gradually weakening
"Those who suffer from infernalities live forever and never die, and longevity is the greatest suffering of the infernal hell"
(Not the original line of the movie, but I think it makes more sense to read it this way)
Look at the first part first, mainly focusing on Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming
If I remember correctly, the ending of the first part of "Infernal Affairs" was changed once, and when I watched it for the first time, after the decisive battle on the rooftop, Chen Yongren's undercover identity was not revealed, and Chen Yongren slept with his underworld identity. span
This is the experience of Chen Yongren
Later, it was said that Chen Yongren was overturned, and the police found evidence from Principal Ye to prove that Chen Yongren was an undercover policeman. In my opinion, this is a failure, because only Sir Lu and Sir Huang knew about the undercover incident. It is meaningless to rehabilitate Zhaoxue for Chen Yongren, and it only makes the ending of the movie boring.
Of course, this does not affect Chen Yongren's suffering, because late justice is not justice. What Chen Yongren needs is not only that the world knows that he is a policeman, but also that he himself knows that he has become a policeman.
Liu Jianming's experience is simpler
He wanted to be a good person, but he killed Chen Yongren, and his heart was suffering forever
And he still needs to continue to be a "policeman", and there are a few people who used to drink tea with Han Chen in front of the Buddha with him.
Once Han Chen died, those people became unstable and uncontrolled unknowns.
Will those people reveal their identities? Liu Jianming didn't know, so he suffered
Liu Jianming, also suffers
In the second part, I think there are two people who are inseparable, one is Han Chen and the other is Huang Sir
Han Chen: His wife's death, Ni Yongxiao's betrayal, he didn't know until the end that his wife killed his benefactor Ni Kun, these are all his sufferings
Needless to say, sir, it was because of the death of his friend Sir Lu.
It is worth mentioning that compared with Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming in the first part, their "being inseparable" has weakened a lot.
In addition, there is another victim, Liu Jianming, because of Mary's death
Also, Wu Zhenyu, aka Ni Kun, is really a great character
He is calm, suspicious, and clever, similar to Yang Jinrong in the third film, but his descriptions are more diverse, he will be angry, he also has a family, and he will also defect to Han Chen, who is most loyal to him, which makes him The characters are very flesh and blood
Part 3
There is only one person left: Liu Jianming
Because of Chen Yongren's death, because of "I want to be a good person", because of other risks that hovered around him, he was tortured to the point of schizophrenia
The name is Ultimate Infinity, but the number of people who suffer from Infinity is reduced, and in the end, no one suffers from Infinity!
Liu Jianming was admitted to a mental hospital. He was immersed in his own fantasy. He began to use the Morse code that was undercover and only used by Chen Yongren. In his heart, he finally became a "good person"
This is the exact opposite of Chen Yongren's ending.
Chen Yongren became a good person in the eyes of the public, but he didn't know it himself. Liu Jianming has become a villain in the eyes of the public, but he himself thinks he is a good person
………………………Dividing line
After all, this is the comment area of "Infernal Affairs 3", so I should say some simple opinions on this movie
three o'clock
First, Shen Cheng, or the identity of the shadow?
Some people say that he is a police officer in the Mainland. This is because Chen Daoming speaks Mandarin, and Yang Jinrong went to Beijing on vacation. Some people say that he is a senior executive in Hong Kong, which may be because he has free access to the security department, and the Hong Kong police badge appears in his office.
I don't think it matters...
He's a good man and that's enough,
Second, the role of Yang Jinrong
The character creation is really pretty
As a young man, I can't feel the era of dawn. Some people say that in that era, he was the head of the four kings. I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it.
Dawn's acting makes Yang Jinrong's character attractive
Third, does Liu Jianming have any mental problems?
I think that there is
Many film critics believe that Liu Jianming was sober in the end, and that he escaped the crime by surrendering himself, insane, and self-determination, but I think this is an over-interpretation
In the previous plot of the mental hospital, it can be considered that Liu Jianming is insane
But in the mental hospital, it brought me more doubts
Some people say that Morse code means "Sorry, Mary"?
To be honest, I'm ignorant and I don't understand Morse code.
Some people say that the ability of the right brain is perceptual cognition, not related to memory and thinking?
As far as I know, all human behaviors involve the left and right brains at the same time, and I have not said which function is simply distributed in which brain, but I am not a professional neuroscientist and medical scientist after all, so I will not comment.
However, even if one of the factors is established, it can be determined that Liu Jianming is sober
Summarize again
The first is that Liu Jianming is awake, but his jaw was injured, he can't speak, and he has lost his emotions. The child can already speak, but he has not fulfilled his duty as a father, so "Sorry, Mary"
The second is that Liu Jianming is not sober. He just had the hallucinations of Han Chen's wife Mary, so he said "Sorry, Mary". At the same time, Morse code also means that he is still immersed in Chen Yongren, or a "good person" similar to Chen Yongren. identity
Maybe the screenwriter just wants to leave an open ending, not necessarily
Of course I still prefer the second
After writing this review, I feel that my mind is somewhat confused.
In any case, "Infernal Affairs 3" is a masterpiece and worth watching
