In "The Matrix", it is said that "there must be an effect", so a program must have a corresponding anti-program, which is for checks and balances. And the focus of the nympho is definitely not here, because I revisited "The Matrix" 1\2\3 in one breath over the weekend; I had to re-interest in the handsome Keanu, there is no way, fat paper is the thin, tall and thin The handsome guy with long legs has no resistance.
Recently, I started to make up for Keanu's films, only to find out that in addition to "The Matrix", he still has many opportunities to be the protagonist. It seems that he prefers films about hell, reincarnation, and the meaning of human existence, such as "Hell Detective". , such as "Eye of Horror", such as this "Devil's Advocate" that I am going to talk about this time. Keanu, who played with the old actors Al and Pacino, is still a bit young. Charlize Theron, who played his wife, was once so beautiful and so youthful.
"Vanity is my favorite original sin." Lucifer said. This winged angel, who was once the most glorious before God, eventually fell into the world because of uncontrollable jealousy. However, he was not lonely.
After so many years of "Devil's Advocate", this time, Keanu appeared in China and brought a "Man of Tai Chi" directed by himself. Unfortunately, in the deformed Chinese movie viewing environment, it was basically annihilated. Its box office is also almost negligible. But in order to be crazy about Keanu, I went to watch "Man of Tai Chi". In fact, I was a little dirty in my heart. I was afraid that Keanu on the screen would turn into a middle-aged sloppy uncle like the one seen in the interview outside the movie, but This is Keanu's usual performance. As long as there is no filming, the uncle in black in his life is actually very informal. Once the film starts, he is still quite self-disciplined, holding the careful thought of watching the uncle's performance, in " On the eve of Tai Chi Man being about to go offline, I went to the cinema in time to watch it. Fortunately, the performance of the uncle and the leading actor Chen Hu he pushed are good, at least worth the ticket price.
And objectively speaking, the script of Tai Chi Man is actually quite remarkable. I don’t know if it is the sequelae of filming The Matrix. Keanu discussed in Tai Chi Man, as a film reviewer said, the discussion of Tai Chi is actually in place. , but the interpretation of "Xia" is a little worse.
And I especially like the villain played by Keanu in the film. He is sober and has a clear understanding of the world.
What people see is not how good your kung fu is, but the mental journey of a Tai Chi kid, a change in human nature
From a simple boy to a murderous demon step by step, and most importantly, tigers have this potential.
The only small regret is that the script was actually written by a Canadian. A foreigner, who uses Chinese culture to interpret human nature, is actually better than the Chinese, and the discussion is more thorough. Doesn't this make Chinese filmmakers ashamed...
In fact, I am more optimistic about the box office of this film in North America in September.
