The use of Wu Bai in "Upstream and Downstream" is undoubtedly a highlight. His Mandarin is as extraordinary as the songs he sings. The climax of the film really took up too much time, and I felt that the second half was breathless, but the most disappointing point was that when we got to the train station and then to the gym, we had to put our lives on the line. Together, this kind of cliché really makes people wonder whether it is Hollywood poisoning or the crux of the inability of genre films to drag and drop. As for Xu Laowei's return from learning, it is not a matter of fact. You say, does he still need to learn?
The battles across the floor in "Downstream and Countercurrent" are exciting and addicting, the editing is sharp, and it maintains a strong sense of speed, which is very pleasing. It's a pity that it always feels like a flash in the pan.
In addition, the frequency of Huang Qiusheng's appearance as a supporting role in Hong Kong films is really speechless.
