Let’s talk about the types I have come into contact with before: the most typical one is a guy in Thailand who is very capable of hitting. He has a lean body and a face similar to Brother Xian, but he is very sensitive. In Muay Thai movies, the protagonist must complete a mission, like the routine of a lone hero. However, the film gives people a simple, casual taste with a realistic quality. The style of play is casual and not particular. It does not describe much about the past of the protagonist. It is just an understatement of the past. Contribution of the routines (i.e. a lone thug must have an unusual past of his own), in fact most people already know these routines, so the description of the past is only a light exchange of explosions after the heroine clicks the mouse and relaxes. In the private chat, it was revealed that the writing is not heavy, but it can give people a general understanding, which is enough. In addition, there is not a lot of burden on the protagonist. Except for the pressure of life and money, he does not have the invisible pressure of morality and society, so people can greet the next scene with an open mind. He is just used to winning, Some arrogant, a little ruffian. There were probably not many such thugs in the past.
So what is the point of this film? When the protagonist walks into the underground boxing arena, he can see all kinds of dignitaries, nobles, three religions, and nine ranks. Of course, I am also one of the spectators. During the fights again and again, I release my backlog of violent cells and imagine A trick to control the enemy is to strangle him or throw him to death. Seeing these scenes, everyone can see clearly and see clearly! Violent things, it doesn't matter if you see clearly, no matter what, he can let people release, let people concentrate on observation, this is the director's success.
But looking back, why was it so engaging? In my analysis, the director has broken through the routine, such a breakthrough is an attempt on the one hand, and a success on the other hand! Since there is not much account of the protagonist's past, we still have a strange impression of this person. I always thought that he would play hundreds of rounds and a few setbacks before we could see the final BIG BOSS. However, in this film Can't see these at all. The first time was in an atmosphere with a Russian accent, and I was beaten without the ability to fight back. I relied on the last collision to let the opponent hit a nail and win. This way of winning was not often encountered in previous films. , can be said to be a fluke. The atmosphere was different the second time around. There were gangsters, hippies, hooligans and the like gathered around. For such a strong and fat guy, if the protagonist didn't have the help of his accomplices, he would definitely die. After watching the second round, it made people feel emotionally overwhelmed. Come on, is this a win or a loss? Probably shouldn't be classified that way. Things can happen unexpectedly, and the second round is just an accident in the competition. The director's realistic approach is reflected here, which makes my habitual thinking fall into trouble. Then what about the third time you are looking forward to? Still a little unexpected, almost killed by Asians similar to Thais, and the last fall can be described as enjoyable. But this fall also shows the director's mind. The protagonist's victory or defeat will be a near miss, and the last BIG BOSS will be a near miss. As my habitual thinking is constantly broken, the director's success is constantly exposed. The director focuses on showing a kind of macroscopic progress, but does not pay attention to the special skills of martial arts. In this regard, there is no need to pay too much attention. After all, it is not necessary for CHINESE KONGFU to have the final say in fighting. There is also room for him to survive in free fighting. Breakthroughs are also reflected here.
Let's talk about the director's atmosphere. The selection of background music is relatively modern, and every time before the fight, the atmosphere is created with dense drum beats, DJ DJing, etc., which is just right. What is especially innovative is that the background of the third round is clearly classical music, but at the same time it is played by a DJ, and the effect is also very good.
In short, there are many novel and brilliant things in the film, as well as the hero and heroine cooperating to bet, letting the agent out of the predicament, breaking through the routine that the boxer only punches and does not manage money, which is really remarkable.
