"I have forgotten how long I haven't watched such a hot, so "hearty" action movie. It feels like It's like riding a roller coaster."
"It feels hard again!"
"It 's a feeling that I don't want to shoot after being hard for a long time!" The
so-called roughness is not rough, that's probably it. Feng Lun, like Feng Lun, is a well-known joke master at the company's home. Moreover, his jokes always have a bit of color, but often they don't feel pornographic, but only image and profound. For example, Feng Lun talked about the government's regulation of real estate. He said, “The government decides a lot about housing regulation. We often criticize the government for issuing marriage certificates and taking care of private affairs. It just ignores the climax and forces people to divorce.” Feng Lun meant. In terms of micro-details, such as how much and how to produce, the government manages too much, and everyone loses enthusiasm, ultimately causing harm to the entire industry. There is sex and orgasm. Feng Lun’s words are vulgar enough, but everyone is happy when they hear it, and they think his brain is faulty, and they don’t think it is obscene and pornographic.
Well, watching "Assault", it is the kind of "feeling that I don't want to shoot after being hard for a long time", and then I keep refreshing, from one climax to another, and in the gradual progress, the whole body's blood is boiled, from the beginning to the end. The feet are all at the point where the blood is stretched. Even after the climax, when the curtain falls, the meaning is still unfinished, and the aftertaste lingers.
I have watched "Thirteen Assassins" by Takashi Miike, a Japanese master of violent aesthetics. In the full 126 minutes, the next hour is an uninterrupted action scene. The story still looks very complete. It is a very good experience to be able to have an hour of continuous action scenes, continuous fighting, and heavy casualties. When it comes to "Raid", it once again subverts the Three Views. In this 101-minute film, the chance is from the first shot to the last shot. The whole film is a climax, all action scenes. Under the pictogram, "Thirteen Assassins" has only 1/2 action. The drama is too pediatric. Of course, it is said that people will say that there are some A movies, and they will also bring a little plot. For example, the story of Li Tianyi was processed into a movie by the great Japanese A movie industry, and the story is also complete. But the plot of this kind of film is almost negligible. It is just a few understatements and then goes straight to the subject.
"Assault" is not. It has its own story frame. It has political and business relations, corruption, political indiscriminateness, and internal and external collusion. This part is mainly in charge of the deputy captain of Baimao. Being exploited will either die or become a stepping stone for someone else’s promotion, showing the filthy and unbearable politics of politics; while the male pig's feet are in the gang to rescue his brother who has fallen, there are family conflicts and reconciliation scenes; also The triangular conflict between ordinary citizens represented by middle-aged glasses men and the police and gangsters is also quite interesting. The plot of the whole story is as simple as the trailer said: a special police team raided a 30-story building, entrenched in it are the local drug dealers and a group of stubborn thugs... a fierce battle It is inevitable.
After the opening of the unique Indonesian Kung Fu "pencak silat", a police car full of special police rushed towards the target building without any nonsense, and then it climaxed directly. After the special police rushed into the building, at first Soon smoothly fell into the hands of a kid who looked out for the wind. The gangster moved after hearing the wind, acted quickly, and then completed the anti-siege. The plot went straight down. From the raid to the counter raid, the life bodies of the raid team were quickly wiped out one by one. The only few remaining had to seek a Jedi counterattack in the building. A novice policeman, because of his skill, finally saved a partner. , And arrested the deputy captain who caused them to die.
The plot is simple and rude. But it's absolutely effective. The director's sharp editing and the soundtrack of Lincoln Park make the strings of watching movies always tense. Even if it is hard, it will make you forget the time when you hit it, just stay there, and then go to greet you. A suitable place, and climax.
Regarding the "pencak silat" and the massively used fighting technique "CQC/CQB" in the film, since I don't know martial arts and know very little, I don't dare to comment presumptuously. I just say it's easy to use and beautiful.
Inadvertently, from Thailand's "Fighting Fighter" and "Tom Yum Goong" to Malaysia's "Kinda", Vietnam's "End Thunder", and now this Indonesian "Assault", Southeast Asian action movies have quietly formed In recent years, Hong Kong action movies are still playing "Ip Man" with hypocrisy, relying solely on Donnie Yen to work hard to support it, even though Donnie Yen promotes MMA mixed martial arts well, and also He incorporated parkour into his actions, but compared to the breakthroughs made by other countries in Southeast Asia in action movies, Hong Kong's strength is really not strong enough. Now, the second part of "Raid" is about to be released, and Tony Jia will also release "Tom Yum Goong 2". Southeast Asian action movies are still worth seeing. We are only in the process of Yen Zidan's aging process, and we can't see any hope of new breakthrough.
