The face-changing "punisher"

This film was discovered by accident in the BT alliance, because I rarely go to the entertainment website's new film navigation recently, so I didn't know there was such a blockbuster until the R5 version came out. Call it a blockbuster for the simple reason that the two biggest names on the cover alone make me have to watch it.

How to say the story, a little "punisher" feeling. FBI agent Jack Crawford and his partner Tom Long injured the legendary killer "Ranger" during a mission together, and then the Long family was bloodbathed, and Crawford, who lost his friend, was hated Surrounded by him, he vowed to make the killer pay his debts with blood, but the "Ranger" was erratic and no one knew his true identity.

Crawford, who was overwhelmed by revenge, has gradually become less like the FBI. He took his team into the fight between gangsters. In the battle between Chinese gangsters and Japanese gangsters, the "Ranger" took a lapse of three years. Appeared again! While gradually chasing the "Ranger", Crawford found that he was not the perverted killer he imagined...

As an idol-level martial arts star in my heart, Jet Li is perfect. Although he also likes Jackie Chan very much, the troupe cannot compare with real martial arts after all. Jet Li at his peak can complete very wonderful and beautiful movements, and Huang Feihong is even more of a genius. I always think that martial arts films must be real swords and guns. We originally came to see the beautiful Chinese kung fu, so aside from the acting skills, the action must have characteristics and must be exciting. Although Huo Yuanjia has mixed praise and criticism, his actions are still very commendable. And this film personally thinks that there is no breakthrough in action and lack of bright spots.

Jason Statham, a new generation of sturdy men, is well-known for his roles in films such as "Lifeline", "Very Human Traffickers", "Two Smoking Guns", and "Snatch". In fact, his predecessor was a diver of the British National Diving Team, which is why he has such a good figure. Now, through hard work, he has positioned himself as a Hollywood action actor.

In fact, six years ago, a Hollywood movie "The Savior" was co-starred by the above two, and the action director was the famous Yuan Kui, and this is the second time the three have collaborated together. Personally, I feel that the box office should also be average, because I always feel that there are no characteristics and breakthroughs in the design of the action, but the plot is rather bizarre. In the end, Jet Li still played a good person, but the method used is relatively inhumane. Everyone was brought into the illusion of a good policeman and a bad killer by the plot. In the end, a blow was made. It turned out that the "Ranger" had already been replaced, but Crawford was a shameless person who betrayed his friends. The theme of bad guys dying, "Ranger" continues to stray between justice and evil. Although the plot can be considered ingeniously designed, I always feel that this film is a combination of "Double Heroes" and "The Punisher", which lacks its own things.

On the whole, it is a failure. There are two action-oriented actors, and the fighting scenes are not outstanding, but they want to make a big fuss about the plot. However, this kind of western hand-to-hand fighting is not good-looking, Jet Li's acting skills are still so jerky, every action movie of Jason Statham is that kind of fierce and not good, and I feel that I can't escape the role of "very human trafficker". Positioning, the ending is very sloppy, and it's unpleasant to watch. Although the suspense is enough, there are no bright spots in the process. The whole article is drowsy, and there is not a point worth remembering. It is a bit of a waste of these two kung fu bosses.

...I have nothing to say, the plot has been forgotten a bit now, I don't plan to collect the DVD, maybe this is the evaluation of Jet Li's film as a Chinese, I don't know what foreign disc fans think of this film of?
