Skiptrace: The Ending Gives a Feeling of Unfinished

If it weren't for Jackie Chan fighting and killing there, I would even believe that this is a series of embarrassing characters directed by Xu Zheng because there is no sense of escape in the film. It is more like walking on the popular road slice mode. What is different from the past is that the protagonists have been replaced by the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth. Without Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang, and Huang Bo, they are replaced by a depraved policeman from Hong Kong and an American slick gambler from Russia, Mongolia, Southwest China, Guangxi, and finally. Returning to Hong Kong and crossing most of Asia is nothing more than a lot of hard work on an embarrassing journey.

Since Zeng Zhiwei is wearing a time bomb, this movie is full of suspense because everyone's "face" is covered with a layer of mystery, and even after Fan Bingbing appears, you can't figure out her position. At first, I thought this movie must have the happy ending of the police overpowering the robbers, but in the end, it surprised me.

If it is simply measured by action films, the fighting in this film is completely the level of fighting in the last century, and it is difficult to enter the eyes of the audience. Of course, if you measure the film's achievements in terms of comedy, it's a bit of a stretch. The subtlety of this film is not a simple action contest, nor a foreshadowing of comedy, but the beautiful scenery and local customs of Russia, Mongolia, and Guangxi, China, which are full of lights on the way and become the whole film's finishing touch.

Speculation about the identity of the matador also made the audience very brain-burning. When the underworld boss, Victor Wang, played by Zhao Wenxuan, was shot and killed, we refocused our attention on Zeng Zhiwei. Bai Shu, played by Fan Bingbing, answered that sentence with: "The person closest to you is the one who hurts you the most!" It also failed to become the final winner, and the abrupt ending of the film gave people a feeling of unfinished business.

The police and bandits are actually on the run from the Jedi, and they maintain their own beliefs.
