Killing Wolf 2 is better than Killing Wolf 1 in several ways. Next, let me talk about the aspects in which I think Kill Breaking Wolf 2 is better than Kill Breaking Wolf 1.
First of all, the plot is better. The plot setting of Killing Wolf 2 is more compact and more story-telling. Compared with the retaliatory story of a few policemen and a gang boss in 1 using violence to control violence, the story of 2 is obviously richer in content. There are not only the gang members who sell human organs, but also the gang leaders and their own brothers, as well as the branch line of justice prison guards and daughters suffering from leukemia. At the same time, there are the undercover police officers and uncles who are also police officers, and the police station's response.
Secondly, the characters are more three-dimensional and full. The most abundant characters in Killing Wolf 1 are only the big villain played by Sammo Hung and the role played by Liao Qizhi, and the rest of the characters are flat and symbolized. Almost every character in Shashilang 2 has enough to show. The undercover policeman who is scornful but keeps the bottom line, the uncle of the police who will behave favorably to save his nephew, the justice prison guard who hesitated and even assisted the abuse, the warden who pays special attention to appearance and cruelty, etc., even other small supporting actors are eye-catching. .
Finally, the most important film conception is that Killing Wolf 2 is much higher than Killing Wolf 1. Different from the simple violence against violence in Killing Wolves 1, what 2 embodies is true justice, desperately to prevent crimes rather than private grievances, on the contrary, the warden's conditions for bribing prison guards are quite kind. Therefore, it seems that the final fight was quite tragic, rather than the pure violence shown in 1. But this justice is embodied by undercover police officers who take drugs and kind prison guards full of paternal love. I deeply suspect that the screenwriter and director have hatreds with the Hong Kong police. In Killing Wolf 1 it directly blacks out the Hong Kong police, and the police in 2 are also very selfish and incompetent.
Of course, there are also unsatisfactory aspects of 2 compared to 1. Such as failed BGM and failed villain boss. It's really fake that Gu Tianle plays a sick elderly person. The scenes between him and his brother are too much.
Overall, I prefer Kill Breaking Wolf 2.
