most hated hypocrite protagonist

Zunlong is so handsome, and the plot logic is so spicy, did the screenwriter not consider the normal feelings of human beings when writing the script? Don't you think about human dignity? It is unacceptable that the lover and subordinates of the male protagonist are still loyal and infatuated even after their personal dignity has been offended by him. He keeps saying that he wants to do justice and do what the police should do, but isn't the male protagonist's behavior a sanctimonious hypocrite? How dare he, how can he be qualified to blame others, I am fed up with his so-called Vietnam War that makes him so unbearable, should everyone tolerate him because of this? The protagonist I can accept is a pure good person, a pure evil person, and even a person who walks in the gray area between good and evil, but such a hypocrite-style protagonist is really disgusting.

    Shame on Chinese masterpieces. As a policeman, Mickey Rourke killed a Chinese boss without any evidence, and slept with a Chinese female reporter. The Chinese brother gave him his life when he was dying, but he finally became a heroic hero with a halo. This logic caused a lot of boycott back then. Not surprising at all. Cimino wanted to use Oliver Stone's script to turn around, but he went wrong and got deeper and deeper. Two and a half stars.

    The theme is still the continuation of the deer hunter, talking about the legacy of Vietnam. Cimino tried to repeat it but was out of breath. The content is still the same as Cimino’s routines: the frugal low-level naturalism, the low-drama photography, and the lingering specter of racism are barely discernible. Cimino is an idiot who doesn't have the talent to make art films and ignores the rules when making commercial films. The male protagonist's way of using, invading, and controlling all women is disgusting.

Year of the Dragon quotes

  • [last lines]

    Stanley White: You were right; I'm was wrong. Sorry. I'd like to be a nice guy. I would. I just don't know how to be nice.

    Tracy Tzu: You're really cracked. You know that?

    [kisses Stanley]

  • Stanley White: The first time I saw you, I hated your guts. I think I even hated you before I met you. I hated you on TV. I hated you in Vietnam. You want to know what's destroying this country? It's not booze. It's not drugs. It's TV. It's media. It's people like you. It's vampires. I hate the way you make your living sticking microphones in people's faces. You lie every night at 6:00. I hate the way you kill real feelings. I hate everything that you stand for. Most of all, I hate rich kids and I hate this place. So why do I want to fuck you so bad?
