Today I want to discuss a Korean action film, "The Evil Girl" starring Kim Ok-bin and Shin Ha-kyun. This is not such a good movie. I think it has a lot of flaws. The director wants to define it as a very unique crime movie, but in my eyes, it's just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
Let’s talk about the advantages first. The action scenes of the film are very good. Several fights are very sharp and the design is cool enough. The director’s action scenes are quite brilliant. The first-person mode at the beginning and the bus battle at the end can all be It can be seen that the director is a person who is not willing to use conventional methods, but it may be really powerless or lack of ability.
The first ten minutes imitate the heroine of "Hardcore Henry" to kill the Quartet, the first-person perspective, and the violent aesthetics. The blood splashing is really exciting. However, in the action scenes behind it, it is not difficult to see that the director has a strong desire to express, but the action scenes after the film are very prominent and shake, constantly surrounding the characters, and occasionally highlight the characters' big faces. It can be seen that the director wants to create a sense of tension, and then the perspective is closer, but he does not feel the sharpness of the action at all, but has a sense of dizziness, special discomfort, especially the final battle, keep wanting Close to the first-person perspective, I should want to echo the beginning, but it is really messy and dizzy.
The more flaws lie in the plot. First of all, this heroine has undergone so long of imprisonment and training in the killer organization. Why did she have a Korean drama-like love not long after she went out? This is really unacceptable. There is also the villain, the former husband of the heroine, who killed the heroine's father, adopted the heroine and fell in love with her, and then killed the heroine in a special way of ink, pretending to be killed during the honeymoon, and the heroine went to take revenge , Borrowing someone else's knife, but the heroine didn't die, the important thing is that she didn't move the fetus (she was pregnant to kill), I really feel that this plot is a bit out of line. The killer organization is no match for the villain's younger brothers. I thought this killer organization was awesome, but I didn't say how the organization was in the end. The little boyfriend who fell in love with the heroine could not escape death, and finally died. The smile at the end was also considered to be a response to the lone robber's den in front, but I really didn't understand it. Many people say that this movie has the feeling of "Kill Bill", and it does have some similarities, but it is really far from it. There is also a tribute to the Mission Impossible series, the heroine is really handsome.
In the narrative, the director made various interludes. Originally, the story itself was not full enough, and it kept jumping around, making the whole story seem inexplicable, but I could understand the matter, but the characters could not stand at all. On the one hand, I thought she was a bad girl at the beginning, but in fact she became a bad girl at the end. The actors are very hardworking and dedicated. The director really wanted to emulate the style of many other films, the inherent blackness of Korea. The first-person perspective, etc., but the gameplay is really not 6. The action is very good, but the plot is really flawed. I have to say that the director is a bit shrewd and wants to arrange a black action film, but it is A dazzling failure performance.
The last thing I want to say is that the film as a whole can hardly be said to be excellent, it can only be said that it is ok. The most unforgettable thing for me is the appearance of the heroine played by Jin Yubin returning to social life. I like this feeling very much, it is very beautiful, and she is still a wife. Is it bad to live?
