The age of videotapes

I was having dinner with a few friends in the evening, and the chat mentioned the era of video tapes and VCDs. At that time, I watched the video tapes "Stimulus 95" and "Little Living Buddha" (I didn't know it was Keanu Reeves until many years later.... ..), I think it looks really good, I can't say why, but I just think it's good. It was a long time later that I found out that it was called "The Shawshank Redemption"... I went to rent a VCD, the boss kept recommending Jean-Claude Winton, and I was confused by what he said, and I thought it was a man named Shangguan Yun The Chinese people in Duncan.... 囧...
After dinner, I came back to find a nostalgic film of "Sudden Death", and I thought it was really good. At that time, Shangri-La was quite handsome. The whole film The movie Hard Bridge and Hard Horse does not have the fancy kung fu moves of the current commercial films, nor the 360-degree whirlwind legs of Shangri-La Winton, nor the one-word horse with the logo. The plot of the whole film is compact and the shots are not bad. When the goalkeeper's jokes, the overall plot is also well integrated, I really laughed when the old lady said "my machine gun is in the glove box" in disdain when she took the biscuits. With so many years of viewing experience, I should have given this film 3 and a half stars, but considering the shoddy action movies made by green screen today, and the era of this film, I would give it a 4 and a half stars. Not too much.
