Looking at the Year of the Dragon for a glimpse of Uncle Long

I watched a mix of Uncle Long's movie recently, and I fell in love with Uncle Long's face, and then I searched for this movie, but it's a bit old, so it's not easy to search.

It was introduced that this film insulted China, but I don't think I saw it. White people have always been racist. Of course, compared with other immigrant groups, there may be more prejudice against Chinese or Asians, including the depiction of the underground society in Chinatown. Try to be as close as possible to the social conditions at the time, and the script did not deliberately demean and insult the Chinese, which is still very objective.

The male protagonist in the play is portrayed as a bad radical idealist, who does not understand step by step and patience, and kills several people around him. I don't know if it's the character design given by the screenwriter, or because of his acting skills, or because Uncle Long, who is the male supporting role, is too beautiful, too sassy, ​​too cruel, and he was given a box lunch in the end. This is the most complaining place?

If Uncle Long is the protagonist of this drama, is it a Chinese version of Godfather? He is chivalrous, has the demeanor of a great patriarch, is ruthless and decisive, and is handsome, which makes people love and hate!

In addition, the Chinese female reporter and the Chinese policeman are good, basically brave and full of justice. On the other hand, the New York police have a better understanding of how to get along with the police and criminals. Is this an irony?

The peak of Uncle Long's appearance should be in the 1980s and 1990s, and the TV and movies he made were mainly during that period. You gave birth to me before I gave birth, continue to lick the screen?

    Zunlong definitely deserves one star. So beautiful! Mickey Rourke and Zunlong, there must be no problem in appearance, but the movie is really bad, even if the screenwriters are Cimino and Stone. The script feels quite thoughtful, but the story is too poorly told. After watching it, it feels like a naive movie of police and bandits fighting. Fortunately, the background of Chinatown can add a touch of novelty. The male protagonist is extremely unpleasant, an impulsive racist tending to the police, and he has absolutely no idea what he is after.

    The protagonist is scum from the Milky Way, and is crazy at any time. All the characters bring out the graceful temperament of Zun Long, a gentle scum, and he also smiles when he hates people. Uncle Long, it's no wonder that this rotten film can still win the best supporting actor
