After the unprecedented success of "Heroes" in 1986, Wu Yusen and Tsui Hark jointly filmed a sequel in 1987. Although this sequel was still successful in that era, in my opinion today, it is quite far from the original, and it can be said that Wu Yusen's work has become crazy and casual. First of all, the plot is extremely ridiculous, many plots are too fake to be tolerable, and many of the scenes are matched very bluntly, obviously in order to "force Long Si and Chow Yun-fat on Liangshan". In the first half, Long Si went crazy inexplicably. Although we all understand the reason for the madness, the performance of the film was completely unprepared. It made people completely unable to enter the scene and could only shake their heads and sigh. Brother Xiao Ma actually jumped out of a twin brother, which is completely based on the bad plot setting for Chow Yun-fat to be able to play. No matter how you look at it, it is still Xiao Ma, who can't be positioned as a twin brother who has never appeared before. The feelings of all the characters are unreal, the motives are strange, and the vivid characters and touching brotherhood in the original work are gone. The whole plot is set up to connect one after another gun battle. In the shootout scene, Wu Yusen was completely ecstatic, frantically abused slow motion to vent his arbitrarily, which seemed to me very poor to watch. There are also many helpless places, such as the number of bodyguards at the entrance of the enemy’s villa has reached a ridiculous level. There are 3 people per square meter, each holding a dog, and then the protagonist is shot over in an instant, which makes people wonder if it is a spoof. Long Si killed the enemy, dozens of bullets in his body were dying, and his whole body was stained with blood. Ti Long came over and said, "Sir, are you okay?" . Only the brotherhood of Ti Lung and Leslie Cheung was struggling to sustain it, but it was also cooking cold rice. The only thing that makes me feel in the whole film is the part where Ti Lung did not dare to recognize his brother and shot Leslie Cheung. Unfortunately, the undercover Ti Lung ignored the enemy's surveillance to save Leslie Cheung's absurd plot and ruthlessly shattered the feeling he had just cultivated. . In short, there is no such fascinating plot, the sincere feelings of the characters and the wonderful drama conflicts, and the unique Hong Kong flavor. Gouweixu Miao, I don’t know why the evaluation is so high. Is it because the literary youth are "appreciating" Wu Yusen's "slow motion violent aesthetics"?
