After a blank period of 54 days of "postponement", "banning" and "negotiation", "Time to Hunt" finally revealed its blood to the world. Ahn Jae-hong, a "literary film Song Kang-ho" with "Melon's Physique", Park Hae-soo, who released "The Light of Daehakro Drama" from "Witty Prison Life", and a film artist who has continuously climbed to the top of the film art hall with "Giant" to "Parasite" Choi Woo-sik, plus Yoon Sung-hyun, Lee Je-hoon, and Park Jung-min who won the double crown of the 48th Korean Film Awards with the gesture of "Watchmen". "These five actors are the film's best cast." The bottom society, youth perspective, reality criticism, long live friendship, coupled with the tragic atmosphere created by the hand-held camera, "Time to Hunt" is also called SF (science fiction) "Watchmen" by the audience. The railroad track seems to extend infinitely, but it leads directly to the end of the tragedy; Youth seems to represent eternity, and it is difficult to avoid hasty periods. The hand-held camera is the forbearance of youth in the stumble, the parallel narrative is the other side of society that is difficult to reach, the visible violence is only the way the teenagers are forced to express, and the invisible loneliness, indifference and isolation are the executioners who cut off hope. Until now, "Watchmen" is still in the "CINEMA TECH" planned by the Korean Film Archive KAFA's "20xx Korean Movies" polling activity ranked first in 2011, surpassing "Late Autumn" directed by Kim Tae-yong and "Yellow Sea" directed by Luo Hongzhen. In "Watchmen", Lee Je-hoon is the free-spirited one. Arrow, Park Jung-min was the one who carefully buckled after that. Actors who were over 24 years old at the time portrayed the rudeness and sensitivity of high school boys with deep sorrow. In "Hunting Time", the average age of 34 years old " "Hunting Friendship Group" has successfully outlined the hot and confused survival dilemma of the 20s. The film first opened the prelude to the dilapidated world with a long shot. ) and Zhang Hao (played by Ahn Jae-hong) trivial dialogue background sound, the supermarket door slowly opens in the center of the screen, presenting a more fragmented city scene. The car starts, the music gradually sounds, the guitar plucks the rhythm, the broken world companion Moving forward with a lazy sonata: the police confronted the public, the elderly and children lingered on the side of the road, the walls were mottled, the roads were crowded with junk cars, the beat generation gathered under the graffiti, and the garbage piles rose with carnival fireworks. The thick fog illuminates the night with scarlet red, the brightness of the day is consumed by dark green, the towering chimney is closest to God, and the huddled world has fallen into hell. In the passage where Jun Suk (played by Lee Je Hoon) appears, there is a smear on the upper left of the prison screen. The setting sun is like blood, and then the camera cuts, and the speakeasy is completely shrouded in a hazy, dark scarlet. He brings the main color of the film - the extension of desire, and the warning of danger. Knowing that the cash they had exchanged for three years of freedom had depreciated into wasted paper, even if they replaced their Hawaiian dreams with Kenting, it would still not be enough to start over. Honesty and law-abiding proves that living hard will not change, and even if you can continue to survive, you will never be able to "live like a human being." "How to live in this world? "It is the question that the director throws to the society on behalf of all the young people. In the movie, they chose to rob the casino, trying to escape easily with the ill-gotten gains from other places. Beginning with the planning of the robbery, a series of smooth sliding shots make The sense of tension and rhythm; the long-range and panoramic shots of the robbery in progress alternate in pitch and pitch, the close-up and close-up shots are quickly switched on the weapon, the combination of the loaded gun and the hard breathing individual line form a suspenseful contrast, the bodyguards frantically besieged There was an oppressive tension with Shangxiu, who couldn't look directly into the eyes of the other party, and the street fighting, car chase, and five-minute money hunting game were completed with skilled drum beats and unfamiliar movements. At the end of the picture of the four people celebrating their success However, the camera sank and regressed rapidly, making the momentary happiness sink to the bottom of the valley, and the dark blue restless air shrouded this happy ruin - the hard drive just to eliminate its own traces has become the target of the entire corrupt organization. Sang-soo (played by Park Jung-min), who was left behind for fear of being suspected, and Jun-seok, who was waiting for the ship with hope, were separated, and the hunting and escape between people was officially concurrent. Underground garage: a confined space with nowhere to hide, a moss-like green hue, the violent shaking of the hand and the dizziness and confusion of the panning mirror, a large number of long-range shots with a sense of distance depict the three people who are rushing to escape as ants in the urn, insignificant , humble, anxious, desperate. Temporary hospital: Killer Han (played by Park Hae-soo) makes a cat-and-mouse game with a five-minute time difference. The dead environment and the dark green fluorescence switch indifferently between the enemy and the enemy. The killer's calm and cold vision is accompanied by a close-up of the sweaty three of Jun-seok. The sound of the heart beating is getting closer. Abandoned warehouse: Empty corridors create a terrifying depth of field, dense rooms hide killer traps, escape from a depressing interior to a silent port, the dilapidated industrial remnants lay a desolate reality for the final climax, cigarettes, long guns There is a bit of a dream of returning to Hong Kong with the brothers in need. As mentioned earlier, the bloody dark red is the representative color of "Hunting Time". It is "active, expansive and extroverted". As an important visual symbol, it adds the sensory stimulation of action scenes and also makes The obscure themes of social critique fade away from dull sermons. In the film, red is the irresistible fate, shrouded in Junxi from the moment he was released from prison; red is the loneliness that is not understood, represented by the cruelty of the "Justice League" represented by Han and Zhang Hao The lack of the family image of the young generation has reduced the growth of the younger generation to a desert of despair. But "the space full of red tones refers to a warm destination". Although the film depicts a society in which the system collapses, political decay, inaction and incapacity, the situation of the lower-level characters is full of the insignificance of humanity. . The four "bad boys" each adhere to their responsibilities to the family: Jun-seok's island dream, Sang-soo's desperate adventure, Ji-hoon's final farewell, and the orphan Zhang-ho sacrifices himself to protect his family-like friends, although "We don't have anything to lose anyway," but their instincts still drive them to discover their weaknesses and then complete the redemption of their warm colors. It's like Sang-soo, who is considered to be "cunning by nature", appeared twice in Jun-seok's dreams to send dangerous signals to his friends; it's like Ki-hoon who always dislikes Jang-ho who pretends to be asleep and steals his clothes, but it's the one play with him The longest boring game, always taking care of his family secretly; just like Zhang Hao, who was unbearably shot in the shoulder at first, walked unprotected into the middle of the street to cover Junxi; he was unwilling to face even a moment of loneliness. He, in the last moments of his life, also hoped that his friend would not have to face his own death. And on the opposite side of these young people trying to save their friends and self-redemption, are the police with guns, the indifferent adults, the speechless society, the bankrupt country and the desolate world. Youth is a hand of flowers and a pistol. Life is a dream and then lost. Life is a bastard. The process of hard work can't change the result. The wish is in the abyss, and the only way to escape from the bottom is to go deep into the darkness. As an action movie, "Time to Hunt" has problems in the integration of the core of the story and the visual shell. The alternation of many brotherhoods and action scenes makes the narrative lengthy, and the literary drama part is not only the performance of the actors themselves. There is no more profound expression. At the end of the film, the escaped Jun-seok boarded the return ship, only this time he chose to be the master of the hunt. The other side of a person's dream is just another island after all, and the hopeless world is about to become his prey. The days of waiting have taught him to deceive himself, and it is only the time of hunting that allows him to find peace in his heart.
