The film blew me away right from the start, with a few minutes of long footage showing a gunfight that humiliated the police. The biggest feature of Johnnie To's classic shootout is the highly stylized shootout. All characters use static braking to achieve the greatest sense of confrontation. The shots are constantly switched. In this film, long shots and hand-held shaking shots abound. A lot of realism has been injected into it.
The elements of live broadcast, media, and public opinion have been added to the psychological warfare between police and criminals, and this film has its own characteristics. The satirical media makes the world more transparent, but in fact there are more lies, focusing on description but not flooding.
The encounter between Ren Xianqi and You Yong was very unexpected. The interaction between the two was not too much, but in just a few words, the feeling of sympathy between the two was quite well described. In the end, they both sacrificed their lives to complete the task for each other before they died. His actions were not only unexpected in reason, but also made me feel infinite emotion. Director Du's handling of this kind of plot is always so handy.
