It's not just Er Dongsheng who has difficulties, but Jackie Chan and other actors as well. If you want to cooperate with an epic performance, the challenges can be imagined. Especially Jackie Chan, the kung fu comedy that finally broke away is finally no longer a Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death. The performance in this work can be said to be a new transformation, and overall it is a success. What is more worthy of recognition is the performance of other roles. Wu Yanzu, Gao Jie, Naoto Takenaka and other supporting roles are all in place, and it can even be said that they have grabbed the male No. 1 position in terms of acting skills. It's a pity that the two mainland MM Fan Bingbing and Xu Jinglei can only be called vases, there is no failure, and there is no bright spot (the Japanese are not bad).
The actors were basically successful, but I think Er Dongsheng failed because of the plot. I don’t know if I’m watching the full version, anyway, it’s hard to tell an epic in 120 minutes, and for the sake of compact performance, many plots, mainly the characters’ personalities change suddenly, the director must be trying hard to show that these characters are living in life for survival The ever-changing fate, however, ignores the inheritance, just wants to express the change, and the result is so sudden that it is puzzling why a person's personality contrast is too huge.
But I still like this film very much. The director shows the life of Chinese smugglers in Japan who are struggling to survive. It is estimated that it will resonate with many Chinese living in other places. The performance of the actors in place has added a heavy hardship to the lives of these people. There are two scenes in the whole film that repeat a sentence, which is the lyrics of the period title: "Three points are destined, seven points depend on hard work". Looking at the changes in the fate of a series of characters, "hard work" has become the concentration of life. No matter if you first arrived in Japan, took risks, or even parted ways in life and death, there is always a manifestation of a fighting style. But the director did not just want to express a kind of fighting spirit, so I remembered the second line-Jie Zi, played by Xu Jinglei, persuaded the husband of the underworld leader: "The most primitive desire of human beings is only for food and clothing; However, when a person sees something he doesn't have, desire begins to come!...Husband, when it's time to stop, let it go." We can understand in many types of works that "send and receive freely" is a It's a realm, but it's easy to say, but I don't know how many people can know how to retreat bravely when their desires are overwhelming. Yuzi's husband didn't understand, the boundless desire made him lose his scruples, and eventually led to the betrayal of relatives. It was ironic. Before he died, he said, "I thought I could die a little more gloriously." But he left with a tilt of his head. Jackie Chan's iron head knows how to stop, and after becoming famous, he got out and started a legal business. But he still didn't leave completely, because he couldn't live without his brothers (why would he be willing to leave his lover?). In the end, he was still trapped in it and lost his life in a foreign country. Therefore, compared to hard work, the higher realm of life is to know how to let go after success, and to let go completely without any attachment.
I found that Er Dongsheng has always been a master at playing with words, and this film makes people remember many profound or humorous lines. For example, when police officer Kitano used binoculars to watch a triad party, he exclaimed because his subordinates sighed at the collusion between the official and the black: "There's nothing to make a fuss about, the consortium, the gang, the entertainment industry, and they are all mixed together, capitalism!" Listen! I was hilarious after I finished, but I soon started thinking again! In the memory fragment of the Northeast, Tietou told his beloved "if you have a dream, just go." As a result, his lover never came back, so he also smuggled to Japan in love, and searched hard and found that Yiren had become his wife and mother. It feels like a strong contrast to the kind of magnanimous persuasion at the beginning. This is also the realm of letting go and letting go! Think about yourself and yourself again.
The last gossip sentence, God, Er Dongsheng is too poisonous, how can you dress up the most handsome face of Wu Yanzu into the most intimidating effect. Female fans will surely curse him. What did Jackie Chan say? - "Look at you, you're a ghost." Wu Yanzu was even more powerful, and replied, "You also let out the ghosts". It's a pity that Applejack said something before he died: "So I'm still a coward."
