In this film with the theme of traversal, telling how the epiphany of human nature breaks through the encirclement of fate, Xu Qing has become the most critical part of the film with very few scenes. The Shanghai woman she plays is heartbreakingly beautiful, mature and without dusty taste, can put up an arrogant middle finger to Bruce Willis who has been so courteous to her, and can also do her best as a lover after becoming his wife. Although this character is like Kelly Ann Moss in "The Matrix", it is the spiritual pillar for the hero to fight for, and a theme for the sublimation or fall of love. Therefore, in just a few episodes, Xu Qing always has high hair, melancholy eyebrows, and sadness for falling in love with a killer who has arranged to leave her eventually. She is his angel, and even more so. The so-called "fighting a crown to become a beauty" means that a man changes the destiny for a woman, and even pushes the future of mankind to the direction of disaster.
The two female characters in "Loop Messenger", Xu Qing and Emily Blunt, have their own styles. If the latter is a wasteland rose, then the former is a beautiful and beautiful lily in the wind, which will be easily broken. Become the root of the hero's revenge. In this complex circular time and space, Xu Qing appears as the most perfect woman. Her goodness even makes the future male protagonist prefer to take risks with his body, and never miss the opportunity to meet with him, even in this encounter. Bring it to the utter disaster. Although Xu Qing is the style of European beauties in the film from makeup to dress, her gestures are full of the subtleties and sorrows of Oriental women, so that the drama of the hero's life entrusted to her can be convincing. It can be said that she is the culprit who destroys time and space, but she is also an innocent and pitiful infatuated woman. Therefore, Xu Qing became the highlight of "The Ring Messenger" and the eternal pain in the killer's tragic life.
Ryan Johnson, director of "Loop Messenger", was also deeply fascinated by Xu Qing and praised her for her "unassuming oriental beauty and mysterious elegance". As a result, the female actor who was initially arrogant and beautiful on the big screen, intermittently obsessed with obsession, and died like a nightingale crying at the end. This "transnational love" has thus become thrilling and heartbreaking. In fact, in this tough-tempered, brilliantly conceived science fiction film, the rivalry between Xu Qing and Bruce Willis is the most tender and affectionate part, like the sunny side of human nature, until death comes, played by Bruce Willis. The actor has completely subverted his beliefs and dealt with the gloomy life with a dark face.
