When the Chinese zodiac first came out, I remember I watched it many times while watching TV, not only because it was funny, but also because they were all acting sects, they showed many things, and they had deep educational significance. "The Chinese Zodiac" is a compact story, with several large action sequences arranged in an orderly manner, with full coverage of sea, land and air, various forms of chasing, fighting and fleeing, with a degree of relaxation and an excellent sense of scale, ensuring that the excitement is always aroused at the most appropriate time. The interspersed literary drama is mainly used to supplement the treasure hunt clues, or stir the chemical reaction between the characters, and in the rest of the gag, from time to time a few cold jokes to adjust the atmosphere, or to promote the friendship in adversity, to bridge the family and love, As long as it is not compared with twenty years ago, there should be few cold spots. It must be praised for the cherishing words of the Rogue Group, and it is often understood with a single look. Very often, you must concentrate on it to keep up. There are not many blockbuster movies like "what are you going to do" and "how do you think" boring dialogue. You may think that certain lines are too hypocritical, childish, or overly nonsense, but you can't find the extra. If there are regrets, it is probably the debate section about the British and French coalition forces in the Paris mansion. Although it is necessary to establish values, it is really shortcomings, dramatic conflicts, and there are too many unnecessary multilingual translations. Maybe it is. One of the strategies for internationalization is to think about the many countries and languages of news screens that have appeared many times, and think about the huge number of translators in the pirate group. Many movie fans lament that the old port movie is no longer there. To a large extent, they regret the non-stop dramas of the year, with surprises every second. The literary and martial arts are each other's green leaves, and there is no stereotype . Many Hong Kong films have exciting fights, but the literary drama is relatively boring. After years of re-watching, you can only jump to find memories. Jackie Chan’s excellent works can be appreciated repeatedly from beginning to end, such as "Plan A", "Police Story", and "Red Fan". District" and "Who Am I" are a natural whole, and the literary and drama is also full of fun. Following the story all the way, fierce confrontation can capture the hearts of the people. With the passage of time, it is naturally impossible for "Zodiac" to regain the old Hong Kong film model, but the script is still a standard assembly line boutique, polished and exquisite, without any sharp edges and corners. Many blockbuster film directors look down on assembly line craftsmanship and have to start anew to show their personal style. As a result, the finished product is full of self-righteousness, chirping, and mystery, which are just a little bit of feed that nourishes the audience's sleepworms. Jackie Chan's costume films and war films also have this tendency, so they are not popular, but once he returned to the best action-adventure light comedy, he took decades of advantages to the extreme. The first NG at the end of the "Chinese Zodiac" is heartbreaking. Jackie Chan's body in his sixtieth year makes fighting more and more difficult, but even if he is no longer on the stage, he can still be a man with his experience in script layout and scene management. Excellent action director.
This is probably the most enjoyable time Jackie Chan played. He took up fifteen positions in the film and completed almost the entire film’s action and funny scenes. This is a "blockbuster", but it does not have any epic flavor. A movie belonging to civilians, and as an audience, as long as you follow him up and down, you can experience the message he wants to express and convey. It will also ignore the "main theme" preaching between thrilling and funny, and the slightly mentally retarded plot This is where the homogeneity effect between it and "Tai囧" lies. It allows the audience to have a complete release after being siege by the movie for a long time, relaxed, comfortable, giving up thinking, walking with the vision, letting what you see is what you get The fierce fighting and joy dominate yourself once.
