The character setting of the movie is somewhat similar to Ye Weixin’s "Breaking Police". The heroines have shortcomings. "Boom" is an abandoned pregnant woman, and "Man" is a deaf and dumb person, both of which prompt the protagonist. The key character of the change, the male second, maintained a relationship with the protagonist as a teacher and friend, and survived in the end. Kong stood by the river at the end of the film, just like the Louis Koo in "Boom".
The atmosphere of "Bangkok Killer" is similar to that of "Breaking Police" to some extent, depressed, alienated, and even unrealistic, but the latter is more poetic and has Hong Kong-style humor as an adjustment. The plot is unexpected and obviously interesting. Much. The film is remake of "Silent Fire", so emotional expression is quite restrained. The feelings of men and women or masters and apprentices are mostly conveyed through actions and expressions. The language is extremely watered down, but it is quite oriental. The pace is fast, but there are also inconsistencies. Joe and Kong's relationship between master and apprentice is unclear, and the love at first sight with Fon is too sloppy.
In the action scene, the chase on the river and the last fire are the most explosive. The former is full of hostility. In addition to the bloody shots of the propeller and broken arm, it also shows the trajectory of the bullet at the bottom of the river and the back shot of Cage's ferocious expression. It is full of stylization. The author is purely routine. Cage once again held two guns since "Change Face", but there are not many surprises.
Nicholas Cage plays a cold-faced killer. As an old drama player, she has nothing to do with Yang Caini. On the contrary, Shahkrit Yamnarm, who plays Kong, has a natural and more eye-catching performance.
"Bangkok Killer" is the second Hollywood movie of the Pang Brothers. Despite the different genres, it does not have any breakthroughs than "The Messengers". It looks like a second-rate Hong Kong movie of the last century. These are not Cage. Or Bangkok is wrong.
