The characterization is still relatively simple, the final ending is the highlight

Christopher Walken, Christopher Walken, is indeed good at acting as a gang member. He doesn't look particularly strong, but he is very fanciful and has a strong accent, and this time is no exception. But to portray the gang boss, you can’t get around a few excellent masterpieces. In my mind, "Scarface (1983)" is my favorite, because there is not only Al Pacino, but also Mi Cher Pfeiffer. Of course, let’s not talk about this first, but in terms of characterization and plot depth, "King of New York" is a bit weak. Although it may be a bit extreme, it is really not at the same level.

Several scenes on the subway are the highlights, including the ending. The choreographer is very clever. You may not be able to guess the ending until the last minute. When the ending is shown in front of your eyes, you have to sigh: Christopher, you Enough man!

The characters are controversial, but just click to the end. Instead, a lot of space was wasted on the police’s violence against violence. Although the shooting at the cemetery was extremely undesirable, it felt too artificial and very fake, including driving in the rain. The highlight of this episode was so quiet that it was unreasonable, and at the same time it shot the policeman grinning, almost stupid.

My Vote = 6.5
