For example, the collar, I can understand the importance of this prop to the film, but the film depicts it too little, too incoherently, and too incomprehensibly, so that it will give people a sense of whether or not to take the collar off has no effect on Danny Feelings of joy, but also doubts. It didn't reach the perfect state at all.
Another example is the warrior in white. His first appearance was just a silhouette under the light. I thought he was a big boss or something. When he fought against Danny with a strange weapon that cut iron like mud, he had a special design. The gauze white clothes and moves make him very elegant, I think the design of this samurai is very clever, he is a balance to the role of Danny, and it is a highlight of the film. But then, he threw the knife that was a great threat to Danny, and it never came back into the movie (I thought he was the kind of samurai who never leaves his hand). And then he was beautifully defeated by Danny. There is no background account for him in the whole film, nor any line or psychological expression or any communication with Danny. In other words, he was actually another "dog" that appeared out of nowhere. This really makes me feel very sorry. Could it be that the length of the film is too limited to accommodate these wonderful and necessary designs?
Another example is the scene. I think a good film should have some impressive and unique scenes, but there is only one scene in the whole film that can barely be counted, that is, the moment when little Danny was taken away, he tore off the picture on the wall and picked it up. Bear scene. The scene of Danny's mother playing the piano in front of the big glass window should be able to become such a scene, but I didn't see what the photo actually looked like, and the image of his mother playing the piano was very vague. It's hard to create that kind of scene, but almost every movie, good or bad, has some of it. I was excited and then disappointed when Danny opened at the Snow White Jewelry Store; excited when Danny and Victoria played the piano, but the ending was equally disappointing. I don't understand why "Heroes" can have so many scenes with great visual impact, but Danny doesn't have them, even "Crazy Stones, Racing Cars" have them. I can only explain that the director didn't pay attention to the scenes. .
And music, I don't have much musical background, and listening to music has always been based on feeling. I really liked the song that Danny and Victoria played together, it was sweet, warm and exciting. But the sonata played by her mother, which was supposed to be the most important piece in the film, didn't leave me with any influence. Musical roots are also a big reason. But like Full House, its theme song gets me excited every time I listen to it, which is one of the reasons why I love watching this drama. But Danny's film with piano and piano music as a clue gave me the impression that there is no music at all, at most the monotonous sounds when tuning.
The psychological changes of the characters are also very rough. The changes of the protagonist Danny are too intricate, and there is no feeling of success at all, and the heroine and others have not even expressed a single drop of their psychological activities. Am I watching the abridged version? I still feel that the director didn't pay enough attention to this.
Having said so much, it is my own feeling after watching the film. Maybe that's what action movies are meant to be like, but "New Police Story" isn't. Maybe foreign action movies are like that. But in general, this film is okay, and I was still very interested when I watched it, although part of the interest came from my own misunderstanding. The story is compact, without any procrastination (I think it's too stripped down), the subject matter is fresh, and the arena and the haunted Uncle Bart are terrifying. I was so scared that Danny would do something out of his control, or that the heroine or her dad would die, or something. But in the end, this terrible tragedy did not appear. Thank you so much for that, otherwise I would have classified this film as a total rubbish.
I seem to be a little too individualistic! hehe
