What about the good feelings?

To promote feelings or something, at least you have to be able to watch the addiction. As far as this one is concerned, it is obviously unqualified. The first two films were filled with old-school tough guys, and in this one, in order to give Stallone's subordinates a play, the old men became passers-by, not only Brother Blade, the governor, Xiao Li and Harrison Ford. With soy sauce, even Stallone's Guards Statham, Lundgren and others have less than half of the scene, and the No. 1 villain Mel Gibson has no sense of existence. The screenwriter Shi may just want to inject some fresh blood into this series, but the question is, don't we go to the cinema just to watch these old men play their prestige? Who wants to watch a group of creampies play secret infiltration? There are many people who did better than you, Stallone! Where have all the good feelings gone?
Not to mention the rhythm of the whole drama is terrible, 2 hours of action movie, except for the fighting scene at the beginning, the plot of the next hour is so dull and lethargic, and it is not until the last 30 minutes that it is a chaotic fight. Doesn't Stallone claim to be the screenwriter who wrote the script with AK47? Is such a sloppy rhythm really good? Is it out of ammo?
Even the last 30-minute climactic scene was shot very perfunctorily. The old men didn't need to aim or find cover in the shootout. They only had to pose with a gun. It seemed that they didn't wait for them to pull the trigger. They fell to the ground in a tacit understanding. In the end, the governor and Jet Li attacked. The two walked into the enemy camp with their guns and walked in the courtyard. The performance is worse than them. In the case of the failure of the sea of ​​​​tactics + the siege of the aircraft and artillery, the killer sent out is actually a strong man... I really need to worry about the IQ...
The slot in other details is even more There are countless, for example, Arnold's fat and out of shape face, I almost didn't recognize it when it first appeared, no wonder this one can only be played with soy sauce... and the blade warrior really only shaved the beard I can recognize it...
After watching the movie, I really felt a touch of sadness - the golden age of Hollywood action movies is gone forever.
In other words, the only bright spot of this film is probably that Jet Li has finally become small! In the first part, Xiao Lizi looked like a sissy among a group of strong men. In this part, the long-awaited public romance with the Governor is finally revealed! , for the already fat governor, willing to make soy sauce with him, really full of love! One star for Li Xiaoshou! ! !
