Stop talking nonsense, draw your gun and shoot!

Keanu Reeves is an actor who has left a deep impression on me. On the one hand, he has his own characteristics, and on the other hand, he can always associate with some very new and cool works. In "Speed ​​of Life and Death", which made me feel very fresh at the time, Keanu Reeves had a little earthy style, but he was young and invincible. And in "The Matrix", it goes without saying that his styling and actions are as cool as the movie. However, slowly, he seemed to fade away on the screen, and his personal experience was also traumatized. Slowly, he became an old actor, and a photo of his body once lost and out of shape also made a group of old audiences sigh.

However, a very low-key release of "Quick Chase" makes Keanu Reeves cool again. Yes, this film is not a boutique, but when we go to TMD boutique, we can do everything in a movie. Without moving his mouth, how can he not be excited when he sees a rough shape and superman in the film that is both pretending and straightforward. Recently, "Quick Chase" has released the second "Quick Attack" (a translation style sequence with Chinese characteristics), and I was relaxed watching Keanu Reeves with a bitter expression on his face. Kill, try to count how many people he killed in this movie, and then give up before long.

Many times, I also feel unfair, why the Chinese filmed a "hand-tipped devil" and was denounced as a brain-dead, while the American filming department swept down a bloody and dazzling movie alone, we would applaud and cheer," Niubi", "Cult"! In fact, the reason is that the background of the shredded devil is often a work with a serious posture and the theme is to uphold the righteousness. "Quick Attack" is quite special. It is actually a spoof, with a dark humorous temperament, but the appearance has to be a group of "pretending to be forced criminals" headed by Reeves to play cool, but the whole process is still one The game is constantly fighting and killing. The plot line of this film is really "classical" and very one-liner, but it is along this line to give the audience a hearty fighting experience.

The very classic scene in the film is that Reeves assassinates the heiress of the gang, and then to the anti-hunting scene, a lively first-person shooter game, between Reeves constantly switching various guns, more than I use shortcut keys to play games coherent. At the same time, the whole process continues to form contrasts. For example, there is a ghostly party outside the fight. For example, the two sides were friendly and persistent before the bloody battle. The so-called funny is to do something that should not be done in an inappropriate place, and it is bloody. Funny also formed a kind of bad joke-like taste of the film. In this kind of fun, everything unreasonable becomes reasonable. You don’t want to watch "X-Men" and you have to analyze the unreasonableness in physics. Similarly, in this film, you quickly give up the details. What's more, the director is also very decent to let Reeves obtain new weapons from the enemy in various ways, and even dance moves, avoiding the unfinished bullet wounds that are common in botched Hong Kong movies.

"Quick Attack" also deliberately presents an "Easter Egg" full of affection, that is, let Keanu Reeves and his partner in "The Matrix" meet the black boss Lawrence Fishburne again, when Neo In the case of Morpheus, everything is silent, not to mention "Morpheus" talks a lot. Although the appearance of the two of them in the film is a little shabby, Morpheus's appearance seems to have not changed much, and Neo's old face has appeared to be devastated. How can such a design not make the audience sigh. In fact, the background structure of this series is getting bigger and bigger. From the first mysterious organization to this one, this organization has almost formed a "parallel world" that overlaps with the current world order. Yes, similar to "The Matrix", a set of operating rules different from that of human society runs in this parallel world. The whole film also constructs a peculiar feeling, that is, although the chase and fight in the film take place in the real world, But the whole scene is completely alienated from the real world, and the people around quickly become a calm background, but compared with the depth of "The Matrix", this temperament is not so serious.

"Quick Attack" is a movie that makes you feel very refreshed. The whole process is absolutely not muddled. Although Keanu Reeves's expression has always appeared to be very hard, it is definitely not a facial paralysis performance. We will notice that some of his subtle expressions and changes in his eyes reflect the skills of this old actor. In the end, facing the chase of the whole world, a few faint movements and expressions reflect a deep-seated panic. And nervous. Yes, the people in the film resist killing, and the tough guy who resists and kills the Buddha also has the fear and helplessness of ordinary people. This is not a person who regards death as home. He is fighting out of the instinct to survive. Various details are presented in this entertaining movie. , This image is still full. At the end of the film, the worldview suddenly rises to another level, leaving an extremely catching tail. Wait for the third one to see what kind of world the "pretend criminals" can create.
