Not a complicated story, but a subject that few people touch on. It is not true that Director Peng is a genius. He can always start from the stories around him and shoot some subjects that no one can shoot, but they are well known and paid attention to by the audience. For example, in "Zhi Ming and Chun Jiao" a few days ago, the idea of a love in a small alley started from the prohibition of indoor smoking in Hong Kong. There was no kiss scene, but it was classified as level 3 because of frequent foul language. This is the so-called soft pornography Bar. This time, Director Peng played a violent and bloody new trick. He used the tricks in the American B-movie he liked to watch since he was a child into the movie, and this time a seemingly weak woman completed a series of perverted murders. Really exciting and fresh.
Political incorrectness has never been an obstacle for Director Peng, whether it is foul language, sex, Chi Guoguo's murder process, or a large intestine, this ghost with an IQ of 135 can always unscrupulously shoot what he wants to shoot. When it comes out, it's level 3, it's level 3, and if you can't show it in the mainland, you can't show it, it's no big deal.
The real estate market in Hong Kong has indeed reached a crazy stage. There are less land and more people. A house of more than 50 square meters will cost more than 7 million. The sea view house is even more expensive. In 2007, the average monthly salary of Hong Kong people was only more than 10,000. , how could anyone afford to buy a house? In the final analysis, it is because the city of Hong Kong itself is crazy. There are hardly any jobs that don’t require overtime, and it is common to work from eight to ten. Even the most popular leisure sports in the holidays are shopping, desperately making money, and then desperately spending money. It is the life of Hong Kong people. Those who have money go abroad and those who have no money are struggling. In the eyes of people, money is more than money. But it is this crazy money making that makes Hong Kong an international metropolis, and attracts more and more people to Hong Kong. With more and more people, getting a house of one's own on this inch of gold is becoming more and more out of reach. dream.
Speaking of this film, the heroine's experience from childhood to adulthood may be ordinary and ordinary, and it is a true portrayal of Hong Kong people who have struggled from generation to generation. In order to buy a house, she could push her own father to death, and it also paved the way for her to embark on the road of crazy murder step by step. The time points in the film are constantly shuttled, and the story of the heroine from childhood to adulthood is combined with the murder plan, so that the audience really seems to be riding a roller coaster when watching it, which is scary and calm for a while. place. However, when telling the story of her growth, the time is a little confusing. It was a little time when she was a child, then she grew up, and now it's now again. Although the year is displayed, it still makes the audience feel a little chaotic.
In fact, I would rather believe that all these killings are the heroine's fantasy, and it is also the fantasy of everyone who is struggling in the city. Not to mention that the heroine's strength alone can kill 11 people in a row, including a few big men, and other things just help her when she fights with people a few times. In this way, her luck is also very good, right? , When the two police officers came up to check the room, they didn't find the dead doorman? And no police came to her after the accident. She only saw the murder report in the newspaper, and she did not carefully prepare a murder plan. There should be fingerprints everywhere. It is easy to find the murderer, but this is not mentioned in the film. . So I was wondering if it was possible that all of this was actually her own fantasy. She wanted to do this in order to buy a property, but in the end it was unrealistic. At the end of the film, the mover said to her: If there is a wardrobe in this room, I can't get out of bed, what should I do? With regret on her face, she did not answer, but turned to the sea outside the window. At this time, the news that the financial crisis would continue was broadcast on the radio, and the film came to an abrupt end. Does this also imply that the heroine's murder plan has not been completely successful, and has not completely achieved her goal, because the crazy property prices in Hong Kong cannot be reduced by killing a few people. The people who were killed are Innocent, but cities didn't stop going crazy with their deaths. Just like this room, although it was finally obtained, it was too small to fit a bed and a wardrobe at the same time.
The title says that this is a crazy city, and to survive, you have to be crazier than it. Then at the end, I suddenly realized that no matter how crazy people are, they can’t match the madness of the city. One person can only be crazy for a while, and this city is the madness of a group of people, and it is the eternal madness.
Let's take a look at the people killed by the heroine. In fact, not all of them are innocent. The man goes north to play tricks, and the woman lets him have a mistress. The men and women playing 4P next door are even more extravagant. They do everything with drugs and sex, and they play such loud music. It's not so unfortunate to be dead to the neighbors. (Suddenly reminded that the heroine used to go to the neighbors to ask them to turn down the noise, but she was ignored. This is probably the original intention of her wanting to kill the people in that room. She hated people who made noise.)
He Chaoyi's performance is very good, Eason Chen completely self-destructed his image to play a wretched and stingy mistress. His courage is admirable. In addition, the despair and fear of those killed before they died are also very real. Of course, the most awesome thing about this film is the props. It is said that the realistic large intestines are fresh pig intestines that Director Peng bought specially. The castrated penis is also very real and very textured. It is said that a staff member on the set saw this The real murder scene made me cry on the spot.
The thought of living in this crazy city for two more years makes me shudder. I don't think I'll be able to afford a house of my own for the rest of my life.
Director Peng is an awesome person who makes all the impossible possible. Audiences who like heavy-duty B-level films should not miss it, and the large intestines are waiting for you.
