revenge for love

I haven't seen Jackie Chan's movie for a long time, and I think it's not bad after watching the British showdown. I really like this political, power struggle drama. But I have to say that Jackie Chan is really old, and I still hope that he will not fight like that. With so many movies in a year, the audience will still be visually tired. The actor who played Jackie Chan's eldest brother's daughter in the film looked very familiar at first glance, and Baidu only found out that it was the one who played Qiu Zhang in Harry Potter.

The whole film mainly tells the story of a father seeking revenge for his daughter who was killed in the explosion, which includes the power competition and conspiracy struggle of all parties, and they can do whatever they can for their own rights. At first, I thought that Pierce Brosnan's Rhyme was the ultimate boss, but later I found out that he was the most unlucky one: his accomplice planned the explosion to cut off his future, his mistress was someone else's bargaining chip, and his wife He slept with his nephew and ended up getting involved with terrorists. Hahahaha I've been bloody mildew for eight lifetimes. But in the end he asked his nephew to kill his wife, and I was quite shocked.

All in all, it's still an interesting movie.

    This is definitely one of the best and most recommended films in recent times. The story is fascinating, the characters are real and palpable, the narration is calm and moderate, and the style is cold and restrained. The fly in the ointment is also obvious. The two lines of Long Ge's action revenge and Nan Ge's political suspense are basically separate and integrated, and they have not been able to interact more closely, deeply and forcefully. , with the escalation of revenge actions to uncover the hidden political shady layer by layer.

    Jackie Chan looks almost eighty, but still can't mess with it

The Foreigner quotes

  • Liam Hennessy: You killed my dog.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: Dog's fine. Just sleeping.

  • Quan Ngoc Minh: [opens coat] I'm wearing a bomb. Anyone comes in, I touch it one, then we die. Now, give me the names.

    Liam Hennessy: They claim to be IRA, but I don't know who they really are. I'm doin' everything I can to find out who's responsible.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [puts gun to Hennessy's head] You're lying! Who killed my daughter?

    Liam Hennessy: I'm sorry! I truly don't know yet!

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [pause] The explosive the bombers use, it's Semtex-H?

    Liam Hennessy: [nervous] Yes. Yes. You know about Semtex?

    Quan Ngoc Minh: I know Semtex-H. During the war Czechs make for the army. Good for bombs and traps.

    Liam Hennessy: In Vietnam?

    Quan Ngoc Minh: Yes. Many American people died by Semtex-H. Now, IRA use to kill my daughter. That's ironic.

    Liam Hennessy: I've read your history. We both know about war. We've both tried to put it behind us. You and me, we're alike.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [backhands Hennessy in the face] We are NOTHING alike. You're NOTHING! You kill women and children! NAMES!

    Liam Hennessy: To Almighty God, I don't know!

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [cocks the gun]

    Liam Hennessy: WAIT! Wait! I've set a trap for them when they use the next bomb. When they claim responsibility for the next bombing, they'll use a code word, telling the police they're IRA. I've changed that code word. So when they use it, I'll know.

    Quan Ngoc Minh: [lowers the gun] You have one day.

    Liam Hennessy: ...what if they don't set off a bomb by then?

    Quan Ngoc Minh: Twenty-four hours.

    [leaves]

    Liam Hennessy: ...Jesus. Oh, Jesus, sweet Jesus.
