After watching Save Mr. My and then watching this one, I'm more disappointed

Today, I went to see and save my husband, and I think it's pretty good. Although the layout is small and complete, the rhythm is tight, and Liu Ye's actor-level little character performance made me admire him (considering that this turned out to be the first Liu Ye's movie I watched), Wang Qianyuan Don't say it, you can see it.
So my friends in the same industry recommended me to watch this movie. It has the same director and Liu Ye's movie.
Then I wasted, over an hour.

First of all, I first hold the backward mentality that the moon is particularly round in foreign countries, and maliciously speculate that a considerable part of the storyline of this movie must be "learned" from foreign countries. Why? Such a strong imitation of the so-called brain-burning secret room confinement in foreign countries, and then a group of people are fighting wits and bravery, confining the audience's thinking to these few people, and then at the end, an outsider jumps out to force a contrast, so... I really can't guess why Guli Nazha likes this lady's bartender, and I really didn't expect the story to end like this, because director, you have no clues at all.

Secondly, the eldest brother is old. Since the "Flying Dragon Rebirth", the eldest brother has stopped being stingy with his injuries and weakness. This is the same, but the eldest brother is still the eldest brother. I always think that the eldest brother is a big scene character. In a movie with such a small format, Jing Tian, ​​who is a vase, as well as the thugs who are thugs, the host who turns into a gun, the pharmacy manager, the boss, and the farmers who are greedy for life and fear of death... These supporting roles are big and small. Because their functionality is placed there, they don't have to think too much about other things (and because showing the diversity of characters is an impossible task for the film's leaders), just do their part. On the contrary, the big brother, our omnipotent big brother, could not find one cent or three acres of land that could accommodate himself in a small world. The father-daughter relationship is righteous and sympathetic. I think the usual routine that the eldest brother wants to show is too big in this film, and the eldest brother has been out of his own "comedy action" line. The eldest brother was forcibly stuffed into a tavern, looking so incongruous and strange.


For this film, I actually have mixed feelings. Anyone who knows Jackie Chan knows that the Police Story series can be said to be the foundational work and a golden sign of Jackie Chan's action film status. After this film, in the foreseeable future , It is estimated that the big brother is unable to move and it is rare to maintain this sign. Although there are two big names in this film, Liu Ye and Jing Tian, ​​but the whole pattern, everyone can see that it is small. Although there is reluctance, I have to say that the police story and the big brother Jackie Chan who supported this series may only be left in the film history book for us to miss the past.

PS: Guli Nazha's boyfriend is Xiao Dou in Mr. Wu! ! ! ? ? ?

    "At night, in a large bar in a prosperous neighborhood, all guests were taken hostages. Among them were criminal policeman Zhong Wen and his daughter Miao Miao, as well as a group of familiar strangers... The robber was the bar owner Wu Jiang and threatened to release a detainee. What kind of motive is the criminal for many years, and it is worth his risk?" This brief introduction of the plot, every time you read it, you will lose one star. Sorry, I seem to have digressed.

    This is one of the more unusual Jackie Chan movies. It feels like Jackie Chan's style is transforming. Fighting dramas decreased and literary dramas increased, especially the literary dramas where father-daughter affection was very successful.
