It is indeed commendable, although the film is basically very cliché in the plot concept.
The cliché, first of all the vulgarity: the struggle between the underworld and the government secret agency (National Intelligence Agency), it seems that South Korea is now from not believing in the government (corruption, incompetence, black money politics, no way to chaebol), and then into "anarchism" . I believe that there is a person called the National Intelligence Agency, who selects those special female death row prisoners (with strong physical fitness and strong personality), creates a new identity for them, and allows them to engage in assassination operations. The manipulator behind the deep underworld.
The second is the vulgarity: the story is still based on "revenge for the father" and "enemy love". In order to avenge the father, he falls into the trap of the real enemy. Not only is he educated by the enemy to become a killer, but he also falls in love with the enemy, and is repeatedly used by the enemy. , turned into a murder weapon. Entering the National Intelligence Agency, in order to protect the child of the enemy in his stomach, he turned into a killer again. And the turned enemy not only killed his new husband, but also killed his own flesh and blood. So turn around and kill the enemy again. The circle is so chaotic, but such love, hate and hatred are intertwined, the enemy and me are inseparable, and betrayal and use are full. Therefore, although the film uses old elements (presumably those of Gulong), it can still attract audiences.
Of course, the invaluable part of the movie is that it has tried new methods of martial arts films. Although the "first angle of view" is not novel, the previous ones were all dizzy, and it is estimated that new technologies such as tying the camera to the chicken head were used, so this time it does not look dizzy, and the effect is not bad. So the killing at the beginning is more exciting. While the latter attempts to escape into various function rooms, as well as the motorcycle fights on the road, and the fights on the bus at the end of the film, not only exciting, but also obviously have the effect of "realization" of virtual games.
Therefore, this is a Korean film, not a Chinese film. We should have not only regrets, but also warnings. 17.7.22
