Talk about today's Korean film and industry with "To the End"

I can give 7.5 points for this film. In Korean movies, it should be the second most intense viewing process after "Yellow Sea" (the first is "Horror Live"). And this is exactly what I think of South Korea today. The most important part of crime genre movies. The

morgue scene should be the most exciting part of the film. Because the male protagonist secretly hid the body in his mother’s coffin in the morgue, he absolutely can’t give it away. I know, so the story requires him to keep quiet. The director can just use this paragraph to show his grasp of the rhythm and the psychological manipulation of the audience. What is ingenious is the toy of the previous daughter, a crawling soldier has just become the hero’s "weapon" ". Continuously interspersed with the state of the morgue in the morgue, the male protagonist walked down and inspected slowly, coupled with the compact soundtrack, forming this thrilling section.

Then it should be the part where the male lead returned his corpse with the time bomb in advance to the boss. Because the film showed some male protagonists planting bombs before this segment, the audience is usually deceived at this time, because revealing information in advance often leads to emergencies or even opposite effects in later developments, so I also Once thought that the male lead would fail. I think this should be the effect the director wants. Sure enough, I was fooled, and he successfully bombed the boss. However, I also cheated him. Although I knew that there were nearly 20 minutes left in the movie, it was impossible to end in such a slow pace, and there would be another male protagonist crisis, but I never expected that the boss would not die.

Then talk about the important element of "villain". Many people should think that the most successful villain in crime action movies is the Joker in Christopher Nolan's "Dark Knight" (I still don't think "The Dark Knight" is a science fiction movie). But a perfect villain, in my opinion, should be offensive, defensive, intelligent, and full of personality. Of course, this is a test of being a villain actor. So when creating a successful villain, the best thing to do is to avoid some action scenes that the villain wants to participate in, not to mention the clown (after all, he is also enjoying the beating), just say Javier Baden of "007: Skyfall" Well, I think he is the most attractive villain after the clown. It’s not difficult for the literary director Sam Mendes to portray this character, because Javier Baden is an actor with superb acting skills, and the director didn’t set him up. In any action scenes, the audience will not see the villain's embarrassment time... It's far away, let's talk about the villain Zhao Zhenxiong in this film. It should be the first time I have watched him act, but I think he did a good job, but his appearance and feeling are so annoying to me that I was very happy when I saw him blow up to death. Such a strong offensive power, stronger defense (both can't be killed by bombing, nor can it be drowned by flooding, and the male protagonist will get rid of him for a long time), and the intelligence is stronger than the sky, which leads to unreasonable points. But this will not be a classic villain after all. This villain is probably only a bit more impressive than the villain in "Air Rescue" starring Liam Neeson.

Speaking of the script briefly, there is nothing to say about the script. It's just that some sections have a feeling of existence for existence, and the purpose is very strong, which makes it a bit obvious. The plot setting is not new either. Macroscopically, it is just like a hot-blooded comic. I met the big boss for the first time, and the gap was huge. In the end, he was lucky enough to defeat the big boss. If you want to read the script, you have to look at the "New World" in South Korea last year.

However, there are still some things that are not clear in the movie. For example, the image of the boss in the play is so powerful, it can be insight into the male protagonist's behavior, but I don't know where the male protagonist hides the body. There is a scene in which the male lead went to look for the things on his mother's grave in the middle of the night, but the male lead colleague found him. It stands to reason that the male lead colleague absolutely knows where the male lead’s mother’s tomb is, but it is impossible for him to go there for no reason in the middle of the night, so it should be followed. Then even the male lead colleagues can track the male lead, why can't such a powerful boss? And there is a period of such domineering car smashing and killing, killing the male lead colleagues who know everything. Isn’t this that the boss knows everything that happened between them?

Let’s explain the fact that different bosses don’t even know where the corpse is hidden... There are some bugs that don’t make sense, so I won’t talk about them one by one. ...And

then talk about the meaning of this movie.

In fact, this movie is definitely not a classic. After all, it is not a very unique genre. It is a movie that can be clearly distinguished as a crime movie by the public. It is mature, but not yet too prominent. However, the film has a bit of a noir flavour, but South Korea has not yet made a breakthrough in this genre. It's the gimmick of black and black police that we can't do (because of the radio and television), but the metaphor of this movie is still very simple, if Tianchao wants to make such a movie, it's okay, but no one can do it. This is also true. After all, they are all foreign movies. In recent years, the strength of Korean movies has made us gradually get used to viewing Korean movies according to Hollywood standards. This is actually very sad...

PS Male I really don’t know the Lord. The first time I saw it, I realized that Zhao Youting was like this when he was acting, hahahahahahahahahaha...
