That's what war is, everyone has a loss

The window was open, the rain continued to clap, and smoke drifted out of the window, as if all signs of life had disappeared at this moment. A user on Zhihu said, "Many years ago, I was a street youth with no job and no money. After being introduced by someone, I went to a video studio to help people write billboards, watch events, and engage in public relations. , I was forced to watch "Blood on the Street" 24 times, and after a month I made some money, so I quit my job and went south alone, and I never watched the movie again, and couldn't even hear about it." So I instantly felt that That's the movie to watch tonight. The silhouettes of the leading actors appear at the beginning of the film, which are actually Tony Leung and Jacky Cheung. They think of "A Fei and Aji", "A Fei and Aji" is also a very interesting movie, and the specific plot will not be disclosed for the time being. "Blood on the Street" is much more violent. For the sake of the brothers' smooth marriage, they borrowed money to fight with blood, and left the bride to kill and run away for the sake of the brothers' loyalty. But the sudden change in the style of painting is far more than simple as Young and Dangerous. What kind of world was it in the 1960s? The people with guns in the war years will not give you a chance to explain. A Rong said, "As long as there is a gun in your hand, the world is ours!" "Why do you want to help me?" A B said, "Everyone is Chinese." Blood Diamond is tragic. "Don't worry, everyone came by boat and will go back together by boat." The second half was so shocking that it couldn't be added. The process of returning to China is far more difficult than the evacuation scenes in "Wolf Warrior" and "Operation Red Sea". Jacky Cheung's acting skills exploded. He used to think he could only sing, but it was a re-acquaintance. In the last scene, Tony Leung's acting skills exploded. Blame me for being poor in words. Although he has thousands of ways to take revenge, he still chose to go out in person and bleed on the streets. The only two dramas I remember before the age of five, "The Case of Zhang Wenxiang's Assassination of the Horse" " and "The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom". Before watching "Blood on the Street", I didn't know who John Woo was. It was only later that I learned that John Woo's "Blood on the Street" and Chen Kexin's "Famous Name" were both based on the famous "Assassination Case" in the late Qing Dynasty. The real stabbing case in history involved a very wide range, involving the multi-faceted power struggle between the late Qing court and several vassal officials. The story is also very complicated, so I won't repeat it. There is also a lone killer Ren Dahua in "Blood on the Street", who is quite brave and daring. He said, "war is like this, everyone has losses." But in the end, every man is lonely. Although the film tells the stories of several men, it is shocking enough. Looking up, the night is deep, the rain is heavier, and there is no sleepiness.

    Looking at Yuan Jieying, Wu Yusen couldn't hold back the battle, he was neither Mai Jiaban nor Lin Lingdong. The screenwriter is too rough, it feels like asthma, and the action scenes are stupid

    Under the realism trend of Hong Kong film society in the early 1990s, John Woo also shot a work with such a sense of the times. The comparison of many front and back scenes in the film conveys the disillusionment of history, and many places are reminiscent of Apocalypse Now It echoes with the shadow of the deer hunter and Xu Anhua's desertion to the Angry Sea. The narrative is also very smooth, with both literary and commercial characteristics, and it is highly ornamental, but personally I still prefer bloodshed.
