1. The good part:
1. First of all, the most likeable part of this film is the realism that blows on the face, and the number of shots is really too much! It's really hard work on this one!
2. The first hour was excellent, he was able to control the scene completely, and the director was really good at it! The whole is driven by the character's state and predicament, and the motives for behavior are particularly clear (repaying money, finding a wife who can't go home, accepting tasks). This can be seen from the meticulous work done. Why, this character will reach a result step by step, this needs to be explained clearly. In fact, the whole film is driven by the predicament, that is, to force people to that end, there is no way, there is only one way. In the film, the director also set a lot of dead ends for himself, such as escaping from the crime scene, interrogation of buses, deceived containers, escaping in a big crash, etc. At the time, it seemed that there was no possibility of escape in each scene! But in fact it happened! Good plays and directors make this impossible possible, and now it seems that these narrative thrusts are largely in the past.
3, the details are too brilliant.
For example, in the chasing section of the dock, when you want to reach the cabin, there is a fight in a very narrow and long space. This is a great shot! The scene of breaking out of the siege in the old boy actually has the same space, but Park Zanyu didn't take it seriously, he made a distorted space display, and moved the long shot horizontally, making it the same as playing a game, of course, that's also the case. a style. In comparison, I prefer the handling of Huang Haili, the oppressive feeling of space, the realistic flavor all come out at once, and the operation is more difficult!
Boss Mian smashing people with the remaining big bones is really a stroke of genius! When there is no way for people to see it, I can't stop calling "Wow!"
The details of the lighter are well laid out.
Boss Mian's murder in the hotel is omitted, and it's the same as the latter, fine.
The car chase paragraph, well, it is rare to see this kind of thing. The hand is held to the extreme, and the positional relationship between the two cannot be clearly seen. Of course, maybe this is also a way to save time and money.
Second, the bad part:
1. The biggest reason why this film cannot be five-star is that the viewpoints are not unified.
In the previous hour, the reason why the participation was so high was because Ha Zhengyu's point of view was completely dominant.
Two paragraphs later, President Jin appeared, which was too early! In other words, the information is too clear! Starting from the third part, the audience is completely from the perspective of omniscience and omnipotence, that is, they know that two groups of people are facing each other. , but the harm far outweighs the benefit:
the suspense carefully created in the second part is completely invalid: who is the other group who killed Professor Jin.
Ha Zhengyu's sense of existence disappeared, because we knew more things than him first, so his intervention was very weak. In fact, he was in crisis - running away - actively investigating the truth is very good, unfortunately spoiled by the director.
Due to the lack of character motivation to guide, we will just watch you kill me and I will kill you later, and sometimes ask why. In fact, apart from Guo Ha Zhengyu, President Jin and Boss Mian are too weak. What's good about making it so complicated, and I can't figure it out.
Then what to do if you don't do this, you need to hide the information appropriately.
For example, after the second part was completed, Ha Zhengyu began to run and live. The police must be chasing him, but when he was hiding, he found that there was another group of people who were not police officers who wanted to kill him. knowledge! Neither do we! The suspense came soon, and it happened to be linked to the previous "Who else wants to kill Professor Jin". In addition, if I can't leave, I find that I have been cheated. What happened to the boss Mian? Suspense again.
Then you can cut the line of Mian boss a little, but President Kim don't show up! The two should let him appear at the first meeting, don't come out before, keep the suspense! There is a large section in the middle of the cross-cutting president Jin chasing down and Ha Zhengyu running away, with little success, redundant and tacky. In the front, it was very ok for Ha Zhengyu to do two things alone (complete the murder mission, find the wife who ran away), but it is very low for two people to participate in a simple task.
We should follow Ha Zhengyu from beginning to end, difficulties, tasks that must be completed, dead lines, unavoidable, accidental, involved in events, forced to run away, chased, and completed one after another. Life, from passive to active, to investigate the truth, the fisherman reaps the benefits, all his thoughts are lost, and he is buried in the Yellow Sea. Wouldn't that be nice! The auxiliary Mian boss line is just a double line, how does it work and promote the main line of Ha Zhengyu.
2. There are a lot of subjective dream hallucinations. This is not very good. It has a blunt feeling of pushing the characters forward. For example, making a decision when you want to have sex with your wife is a bit low. In fact, sometimes it's more true when you decide to do it. If it's to create some flamboyant scenes, then he can totally let him go to prostitutes, but he doesn't have the money to go to prostitutes. Later, President Jin's lover was also a grandstanding, even if he didn't take off his clothes, he could even pose on the bed. Full of flavour.
3. The police are the lowest among them, and they are simply weak... Then they spent a small amount of ink to show that they are investigating cases, which is simply redundant. Just make them all "news summaries".
3. Summary:
1. Much better than Chaser!
2. In my heart, no one can compare to Feng Junhao, because he can have implication on the basis of extremely skilled mastering the rules of genre films, and has a deep local flavor! This is simply too difficult, and there are very few people in the world who can do it. Just think, the film is so good-looking, it has meanings, and it can be elevated, why not? What the movie needs is someone like Feng Junhao!
3. Even if the Yellow Sea can't get five stars, I still see the good quality of its practical type! In fact, it's good to be able to understand the type. The first step is to look good, and then talk about other things. When you are a type, you can do it well. Don't want to talk about it before you learn it. No man's land is obviously not a good type! You see it is difficult for each character to establish a sense of identity at the end. Not strict!
4. Generally speaking, I still like to make a good movie with the story first, and put my efforts into carefully scrutinizing the editing of the plot and characters. It's so boring.
5. How can a good Korean actor have fine skin and tender meat in a good mood. . . . . . Ha Jung Woo is really good! Ranking of the top four Korean actors: Song Kang-ho, Choi Min-sik, Ha Jung-woo, Kim Yoon-suk.
