The strong music at the beginning, the chaotic residential area, the protagonist's aggressive actions, and the concise and interesting dialogue made me immersed in it all at once. The details are well handled, the montages are used reasonably, and several clues appear intertwined, which is very attractive.
I find it amusing, for example, the helicopter uses a huge magnet to attract the car and fly it in the sky; another example, the protagonist enters the big villain's car to negotiate with him, and the side window shows a green light in the state of night vision. Trees and people, this background is coupled with a young girl who seems to be sitting in her own home, as well as a special tranquility. The protagonist's swordsmanship and weightlifting are clearly manifested all at once.
The dialogue is interesting, the main thing is that there is no nonsense, and you can't guess what the characters will say next. What made me laugh was that the protagonist opened the trunk and said, "I hate less when the gun is used up." I really want to know what the original English text is. With this sentence as a foreshadowing, when the heroine said, "The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own grass nest", I am not surprised.
It's a pity that such a compact and refined plot reached a turning point, that is, after the shootout triggered by the hero's unwillingness to take the heroine out of the bus, the film went out of control and completely became a nutritious snake's tail, both boring and inexplicable. Especially at the end, I really don't understand what it means.
The male lead is quite good, so even if the female lead's lips are really like two sausages, it looks okay.
Worth watching, but not recommended for theater viewing.
