for muscle and loli

It's been a long time since I've seen a leading actor in a Korean movie like this. In this era of handsome boys occupying the screen, Yuan Bin, who was originally considered to be handsome boys, appeared on the big screen with a shaved head and muscles. In fact, Yuan Bin had a different performance last time, playing a mentally retarded son among his mother. It can be seen that he is a hard-working actor, trying to get rid of his inherent image in people's hearts. Although these two roles are a bit deliberate, as the representative of the original handsome man, such a performance is acceptable. There are tough guys in Korean movies such as Cui Minzhi and Song Kanghao. Although Yuan Bin does not have the personalized performances of these two, these two do not have the figure that men can admire like Yuan Bin. This is extremely important for the majority of female audiences who come to the cinema. Yuan Bin starred in a tough guy, if he didn't show his flesh, he would be a waste!
Another highlight is that little loli Jin Sailun, she really made me gasp when she appeared in the first scene. The last time I had this feeling was Cecilia Cheung in "The King of Comedy". At a young age, there is maturity that is not commensurate with her age. This look is exactly in line with the requirements of the role in the film. It is really suitable for this little loli to play. Although there are traces of performance in some places, who would have the heart to say anything else in the face of such a cute loli? I just hope she can live as simple as Loli, but as a child star, it's probably difficult. . . . .
The most exciting thing about the film is the sharp camera cuts and the action design that is completely indifferent. Except for Donnie Yen's film, it is difficult to see such action design now, and the knife is bloody. Especially the last two master moves and Yuan Bin's group fight before the master move, just being fierce can no longer be described. The action guide must be a master of free fighting, and the movements designed may not be as punchy as Donnie Yen, but the feeling is still strong, as if knives are stabbing himself. There are also first-person perspectives when two masters are fighting, which doubles the effect.
Although some people like to talk about the plot, and there is indeed something worthy of scrutiny, but with the muscular man Yuan Bin and Xiao Loli, who cares that the plot is originally a fiction?
