A Gathering of Heroes

After sitting in the cinema, I felt a little regretful: I am not used to being dubbed anymore. Apart from Jet Li, watching foreigners speak Chinese, I am very uncomfortable. Moreover, it is still an action movie, and slang is indispensable; the ending of the dubbing is to delete the footage and add a localized Chinese script. Adding Stallone, Stanley, Jet Li, as well as guest Willis and the governor, thought of a Chinese dish-a gathering of heroes.
The gathering of talents means, of course, that the materials are all big names. As for the things that are made, this, it depends on it. Of course, the old guys will come to join in the films directed by Stallone himself; after all, everyone has been on the screen for many years, at least they are familiar faces, and there are many friends; as for those who are not familiar, Stallone calls If you are worthy of you, of course it is to give you face, and you have to take it at the wrist of others.
So there is this movie.
So there is this movie without plot.
So there is this pure man's movie.
Imported films, of course, are inevitably cut; but for those films whose stories are inferior, the cuts are nothing more than "excessive violence" scenes, but in this way, this film is not to be seen. Just like this movie, there are multiple picks from beginning to end. In the second half of the screen, a single person singles out more than 5 enemies, and the final result is actually zero casualties. Is it because our eyes have become picky, or is Stallone still stuck in the "Rambo" era? There are no tactics at all, no; basically to the limit of the two-person combat team, it is completely Sa Huan’s alone; knives, guns, and grenades, all in one, plus body armor, let the opponent as many as 7, Eight people are in battle at the same time, and they are calmly dealt with. I just want to ask, even if it is one by one, it takes a lot of effort, right? What's more, all the damn ones are dead, and the ones that don't deserve to die are all alive in the end, and everyone's happy ending, when will it be changed?
This kind of film is too bad to be released now; this kind of film is most suitable for the Spring Festival. First, there is no excessively bloody and violent scenes (the reason is that it was cut out), secondly the plot is simple and easy to understand, and thirdly, it is a time-honored brand. The star lineup is amazing. As for the plot, I'm sorry, this one is just for fun, how about a gathering of heroes?
