Personal heroism, the story of seeing Buddha killing Buddha and turning over a vote of people is an old stalk in Hollywood movies. But whether it is a killer or a special agent, after thinking about it carefully, there is really no movie that allows me to directly associate them with the word "Knight".
But for this movie, as long as the setting background is slightly modified, the storyline remains intact. A martial arts master wearing a bamboo hat, a long sword, and a fluttering white coat will jump out of the screen. Even most of the fighting scenes, I can make up the corresponding pictures. . . I probably miss movies that are truly chivalrous.
In addition to the director deliberately creating a Jianghu background, he privately thought that Keanu Reeves had his own chivalrous style. Although his face was swollen into an uncle, no longer the heroic spirit of the "hacker" era, every close-up made me sigh, but fortunately, when the aura was still there, in suits and ties, he couldn't bear it. I feel that if it weren't for him, the so-called knight taste would have been lost by most.
Movies made at a small cost cannot afford big scenes of blasting and car chasing. They are mostly gunfights and hand-to-hand fights in small spaces. Instead, they feel a lot of freshness. It seems that they are used to eating big fish and meat. It's not unpalatable.
The overall film picture is cold and harsh, there are no muddy shots, and no violent and bloody shots deliberately magnified, which force the audience to give the audience an artificial visual stimulation. Some violent images are even treated with a bit of artistic conception, and I can't help but tsk the taste of martial arts. . Naturally, the soundtrack is strong and complements the fighting scenes, which is enough to add points.
