Many comments about this film are arguing, and in the end it is usually a sentence of radish and greens. The main point is actually here. Although the overall quality of the film has a relatively objective standard, it is undeniable that the audience is their own favorite style. This preference has risen to the cultural level in the movie "Infernal Affairs". It is no wonder that many Chinese commented after watching "The Departed" that Martin Scorsese did not understand the true meaning of "Infernal Affairs". From the perspective of Western aesthetics, the "Infernal Affairs" series should belong to standard romanticism, and "The Departed" is a typical realism. Whether the legendary novel is better than the documentary literature, although the writing style will still have an impact, but the scope of play will indeed be very limited. For example, if Matt Damon and Neonardo DiCaprio are asked to repeat the lines of Andy Lau and Tony Leung in English:''Give me a chance. I want to be a good person.''''Go to the judge, ask him.''''So kill me.''''Sorry, I'm a cop.''''Who knows?'' Still motionless, with the same look, with a cold expression-to the old beauty , This must be a comedy. In terms of acting alone, Jack Nicholson completely surpassed Zeng Zhiwei. In terms of character connotation, the US version is indeed much worse than the Hong Kong version, but considering that the Hong Kong version is a trilogy series, there is enough room to talk about things. In this regard, the US version should not be too demanding. Otherwise, one is better than "LOTR: "Return of the King" is still a long gangster movie is definitely a double test of movie theater return rate and audience patience. At the same time, it should be noted that the Hong Kong version actually has its corresponding problems. For example, the roles of Chen Daoming and Liming are completely dispensable outside the main structure (although they both performed well), the entire third part is a corresponding " The "ultimate error correction" of "Perfect Virus" is only inferior to the Hong Kong-style godfather of the second part in terms of style. Of course, it is even more incomparable with the uninterrupted fate of the first part. At this point, the ending of the US version is quite good, and the whole story of the third episode of the Hong Kong version is dealt with in one shot. The last sentence is that different styles produced in different cultural soils will definitely have different values in the eyes of different cultural backgrounds. As far as film art is concerned, the US version is on the same level as the Hong Kong version. However, just as the old beauty cannot understand the sentimental Eastern style aesthetics, how many people can fully understand the profoundness of "the whole country is a mouse"?
