This is a light and clean movie. The police film, not in a hurry, calmly narrates the 72-hour chasing game of wisdom and courage between two lonely heroes.
Andy Lau, terminally ill, dying. Liu Qingyun, wise and brave, but unfortunately useless. Two lonely masters One day I met under Andy Lau's careful arrangement, and then agreed to a 72-hour game. The
film is especially from the perspective of Shendu, unfolding everything indifferently, and has no intention of re-painting, but it seems to be low and smooth, which makes it easy to taste. The aftertaste is endless. The feelings are just right, just enough, light and not messy.
There is no hot scene of gunshots and flesh-and-blood fights in the past police and gangster films, but some are just the friendship between the masters and the fun of squatting.
Just like the film critic Renjie Chen once said in her column: "If unfortunately, there must be an enemy in life, then it is better to find someone who is right." Two people with a gentleman's style are unfortunately enemies, and fortunately they are enemies." The dealings between the two heavyweight masters are always so fascinating. In the film, the two handovers are ups and downs. It is a contest of wisdom and courage, bursting out lasting fireworks. The
popular police and criminal films in the past are correct. A kind of brutality in the eyes and soul of the audience. The bloody scenes always make people feel devastated, the soul is restless and depressed, and it seems to be burned. Life is already impetuous enough, why bother to upgrade it? And in this film, Everything is so clean, light, without excessive rendering, making the audience comfortable and intoxicated, relaxed and comfortable. A popular police film is like a glass of strong wine, which burns and hurts the mind. And this film is more like a bottle of sake, mixed with a proper amount, makes people slightly drunk Without losing consciousness.
There is no earth-shattering love in the past Jianghu movies, some are just short encounters and acquaintances. A moderate amount of shallow feelings floats slowly in the film, not sensational, no emotions of struggling, and there is no sadness. ending.
They met very late, very short, very coincidental, and wonderful. It was on the bus at the time, and Andy Lau asked the girl and him to pretend to be a couple to avoid police inspection. The second encounter was on the bus, and a police car followed. The girl thought he was in trouble again, and she took the initiative to leaned her head in his arms, preparing to be fooled again, unexpectedly it was just a misunderstanding.
In this way, the emotions of the two people grew up in each chance encounter and bloomed a faint, indifferent flower, which opened lonely. Those are vivid memories, blooming romance, and throbbing feelings. Some people have such desolate flowers growing deep in their hearts. Under the water of time, they are still fresh and never withered. At the end of the movie, the girl sat on the bus with a calm face, but she was embarrassed by her unforgettable mood in her heart.
"Dark War" is really a rare and refreshing and pleasant police film. It allows us to temporarily settle the impetuousness, leisurely and calmly taste the contest of wisdom and courage, and feel a short and elegant love.
