A story about a male protagonist with a strong sense of justice and a strong sense of justice who has not been told of his background, his background, and his talents. The male protagonist is also married to a prostitute.
I can't help but think of Xiao Shijilang, who has the skill of Xiao Li Fei Dao. .
This movie is a pure "cool movie". We don't need to use our brains to distinguish between good and evil. There are bloody scenes but they are appropriate and beneficial. Some erotic scenes are inserted from time to time in the violence, even if the heroine in the happy ending works in a restaurant or wears clothes The low-cut professional clothes, when the fight was in full swing, did not forget to put a bullet hole on the bikini female star's butt on the poster.
The director's own violent aesthetic is well implemented throughout the film. But it is different from Quentin's words accumulation of tuberculosis/BGM's contrast/shaking cultural baggage, the tension of the plot caused by the inner struggle of Kitano Takeshi's male protagonist, Park Zanyu's investigation of the depths of human nature, and director Michael Davis's principles, I think it is two words. :direct.
About the construction of the male protagonist.
Background: He was investigated by the villain 2 until he was 10 years old. As long as he knew that his shooting was so accurate, it was completely a talent, and it was enough that he had been used by the national secret service. The specific experience after that did not need to be known (this is too old, Gu Long wrote The prodigal knight suddenly appeared out of nowhere to preside over justice), just need to know that he is very poor now, and he needs a sperm donation check to buy a gun (perfectly corresponds to the plot of going to the hospital to investigate later, how did he know to donate money? There is a metal music club near the Jing Hospital, and the director is still very careful).
Personality: He is very pure and vicious, even if he doesn't turn on the turn signal to change lanes. Love carrots, make full use of carrots - relieve hunger, relieve boredom, supplement nutrition (for sperm donation?), persuade prostitutes to be good (carrots supplement milk, because you have experience in donating sperm to raise your body? By the way, male protagonist donating sperm or church I'm a regular customer, there's no one else in this body), pull the trigger (if the shooting is very accurate, it's too buggy to throw a carrot so accurately). The female protagonist is still helping the audience to confirm that such a NB person must have some torment for himself, but the male protagonist really just responds to the evil forces purely and unconsciously. The only knot in my heart, the fact that my family was killed by the looters with the guns they sold, also disappeared with a series of jaw-dropping shooting skills at the end.
Skills: Accurate shooting, the enemy thinks in the opposite direction, pay attention to observe everything around, act decisively, have good mechanics (guns are arranged in the gun factory), know how to endure pain and seize the opportunity to hit a shot (the roaster by the stove has too much brain hole to put bullets) ), the protagonist's halo buff (just can't hit me, no matter how high I can jump, I can't die, the villain will always talk more than me).
It seems that the structure of the male protagonist has no characteristics, let alone depth.
story plot.
It's more routine than routine. The reversal in the middle, it is not difficult to guess that the congressman is actually with the gun manufacturer.
What is the charm of this movie? I think it's direct.
You don't need to judge, just show you what human nature most wants to see without any nonsense. A down-and-out hero is a pregnant woman, no nonsense is a carrot. What should a pregnant woman do if she can't run fast, she will give birth by push on the spot. What should I do if the baby is too noisy to reveal the location, just tear off the clothes and breastfeed. If the baby's mother is injured, she has to take care of her and find clues from her. It's too procrastinating, and she is shot directly in the forehead. What should I do if there are too many people surrounding me, one lying down slips and clears the enemy outside the bunker, the enemy behind the bunker directly smashes the window and hits the bullet in the enemy's face. The first 10 minutes basically showed the direct style vividly.
Another charm is the dark humor/bloody brain hole. For example, the FKU and FKU TOO section of the billboard after the fierce shootout. The dereliction of duty by the firearms chief was mocked by the male protagonist after he showed his perfect use of the camera. The playful two guns of the male and female protagonists after the incident. The biggest brain hole is naturally the final reversal. How does the male protagonist who doesn't even have the finger to pull the trigger kill 4 people, including the villain 2 with a pistol.
There are also some poorly handled shots. For example, in the shot of jumping off the plane and shooting, the director may want our audience to feel the thrill of gunfight + falling from high altitude, but IMHO, the shooting is too fake, and there is nothing exciting except for the final helicopter meat grinder.
In short, it is a very characteristic and charming violent aesthetic movie.
