Is it retro?

I haven't watched the TV with the same name, so I don't know how long the original drama is.
Generally speaking, when a TV drama-length script needs to be turned into a movie, it is mostly due to lack of time, compression, compression and compression, which makes the plot too compact. But this film is good, it's procrastinating and long as if time is running out, but the plot is fragmented like a series.
After watching the whole film, I have no feeling for the two protagonists at all, and even feel that both of them are a bit silly. The bearded man is a man who likes to break shoes, (why should I say that again?...) And because of this, he angered the little boss and caused the mission to fail. Apart from driving a speedboat and pretending to be a self-destructing man, he can't see any other skills. I don't know why. Aunt Gong took a fancy to. The bald man has no opinion at all, and will help out, even if he can't save a GF, it's really a failure among failures. Such two protagonists, the action is not cool, the weapons are not cool, it really can't give people a good impression.
Let’s talk about the vehicles used, starting with a Ferrari. It is estimated that it just passed the speed limit. If you don’t drive, change the plane, and the plane can’t drive well. If you want to deceive the radar, you are still so far away from others. It’s weird not to be discovered. The person was a little stupid, and was not found, and then there was a speedboat, a straight course in the calm sea, if it wasn't for the camera to turn around, I would have thought it was a card film. In short, the transportation is not cool, it is really nothing to watch.
As an action movie without action, I think it's better to call it a police and bandit movie. After all, everyone finally shot hard and didn't spare the bullets. But there is nothing new at all, and it is indistinguishable from the shootout films of the last century, that is, the bullets fly around and the bad guy falls to the ground, the police side is symbolically wounded, and then... it's over. And didn't see what the snipers were doing at all? Does everyone carry only one bullet? Kill the opponent's sniper and get off work? Not at all supportive. This does not focus on details and no visual effects. It really doesn't look like a blockbuster in 2006, or the director is too retro.
In the end, the film ended abruptly as soon as the camera blacked out. Of course, there is nothing to continue acting, so the ending without pain is in line with the style of the whole story. If you have seen it, you will not have any impression.
