Governor Noah's actual personal circumstances and roles are appropriate. Both were once brilliant and now take a back seat.
The governor's performance is also appropriate to his own situation. At first I thought the movie was going to use some method to bring the governor back to his youthful appearance. No, he is an old man! Especially when Nuo Ge wears reading glasses "very old" when looking at the body of the old tractor! Brother, I've only seen you wearing sunglasses before, okay! I couldn't react for a while.
I would like to understand this movie in this way: the last stand is not always the best line of personnel and equipment, but the first line or front line with the best personnel and equipment is broken by the enemy. It means that the last stand will definitely be broken next. Qin Zai Changping almost killed all the strong men of Zhao State, but in the battle of Handan, he failed to win the remaining children, old people and women of Zhao State (of course, if foreign aid did not come in the end...).
In the movie, the fact that the racer leader failed to break through the governor's line of defense is the same as his breaking through the previous line of defense. The black fat FBI introduced that the racing driver is a new generation of drug lords. So can I understand that the first half of the movie is a part of a new generation of drug lords ahead of a new era of police? The second half is similar to what Mawei's subordinates reported to him at the beginning: "That farmer (old tractor) is a little tricky". (This farmer can be called "old stubborn".) The old farmer ignored the so-called "conditions" of the horsetail, a bit like, "old" policemen do not necessarily use tricks that work for "new" policemen. (A racer can buy a "new" cop for $3 million, but you can't buy an "old" cop when you add the price to $20 million.) Personally, I don't think the "old" cop values dignity, etc. , those things are priceless, it is better to say that Brother Nuo has reached the stage where he does not need much money. I still remember in the middle of the movie, Nuo Ge used safety as a reason to avoid the old people waiting for breakfast. The reason for the old people was that "you are talking to a 72-year-old high cholesterol patient who just ordered a bacon and cheese omelette with more cheese..." (This can be called "old never die"). The governor is not only an old police officer (the old one here is a little more experienced), but also an old stubborn and immortal. And these old times are the reasons why the "new" drug lords failed to break through.
In addition, for me personally, the most important thing is that these "olds" finally made me accept that Brother Xi Nuo is really "old Nuo" in reality. Many actors, especially those who are successful and have a consistent image on the screen, will sooner or later be unable to maintain that image. To make an inappropriate analogy, you can see Jet Li playing the young monk, Fang Shiyu, Hong Xiguan, Huang Feihong, Chen Zhen, and one day he will play the abbot, Fang De, Huang Qiying, Chen Zhen and his master. Can you accept it smoothly? Now, I can accept that "Brother Nuo" is already "Old Nuo". . . I don’t know if this echo of the “old” elements that appear several times in the movie is my subjective imagination. Anyway, I really like this kind of interlocking, so it doesn’t seem that any part of the work is superfluous or not. temporarily inserted.
Forgot to say "I don't die". The fight on the bridge, shit, really isn't a show of "the sword is not old", it's really an old man's fight. "Old Sword"'s speed, reaction, and tricks are obviously inferior, and winning is completely dependent on carrying. It felt like the racer slashed him dozens of times and he didn't fall, but the racer knelt after being stabbed by the old man. It turns out that what boxing is not necessarily afraid of is "young and strong", as long as you are "strong" (thick blood)
