Finding fault with frustrated viewing

The motivation to watch this film is inseparable from the brainwashing education I received. "The Watchers" is a remake of our Hong Kong film "Stalking". Well, as a Chinese, how can you not be honored? For the director's vision, well, I'll just reluctantly, waste some time, find fault, and despise it by the way.
With this kind of mentality of finding faults, I am a non-professional audience who can't watch the progress bar. In this two-hour movie, I rarely saw the progress bar twice, how long until the end, the whole film. The process attention is almost occupied by the character story. As a viewer who has also watched "Tracking" for half an hour, it can be pointed out that this part of the film's plot is a high-level reproduction of the Hong Kong version, but the public exchange subway, the editing method is more aggressive, and the rhythm is more compact. According to netizens, the whole story is the framework of the plot, but with some localized details and commercial elements. In any case, two hours of excitement and tension, the viewing experience is not good, there is almost no procrastination and boredom. Because it is a remake, despite the localization, except for the difference in actors, I can still see the familiar taste of Hong Kong films, teamwork, high-tech investigations, false alarms, car chases, gun battles, and even camera shots. Some switches are the same. This proves that You Naihai is really talented. With a different background and a different actor, it can still be a successful commercial film after being remade six years later. I didn't understand "Tracking" before, director, I'm so rude.
The reason why I watched "Following" was because Xu Zishan won an award later, and watched the excitement with a gossip mentality. After watching it for half an hour, I didn't see the explosion point, so I clicked the red X silently. In addition to not being a hit, the reason why I didn't watch it is that I could say that I was jealous of Xu Zishan at that time~~ There were no women in appearance, figure and affinity, and she was inexplicably praised. It really hit my consistent values, and I completely accepted my incompetence. Originally, I might have increased my favorability for her because of her winning acting skills, but it didn't. Xu Zishan's acting skills were not good at all except for the feeling of being a pig girl. Compared with the Korean version of the casting, there are three impressive ones. Although Han Xiaozhu is not beautiful, she is better than having a strong affinity. She is also called Huazhu, but she is not stupid at all. She is smart and neat, and her favorability is very high. The villain Zheng Yucheng, bowing his head and brows revealing evil charm, completely performed a perfect criminal with accurate calculation and strategizing, which is unforgettable. There is also the squirrel, this character is an adaptation of the Korean version, the Korean version sets him as an energetic colleague who makes jokes, in fact, I can't remember his appearance in every scene, only remember that he is the youngest among the bunch of monitors, The best-looking one, he died unexpectedly and was complained by netizens that he was too weak, and he was easily killed knowing the identity of the other party, but this setting corresponds to the previous foreshadowing. It was only used in the cemetery, and it also highlighted the speed and accuracy of the perfect criminal, and the change of the heroine's mentality made the story climax. From this perspective, the adaptation is still very successful and reasonable.
Well, it's better to find fault and complain. The adaptation of the whole film is worthy of appreciation, but there are still some pee spots. As I said before, where I watched the progress bar twice, one is when the heroine Han Xiaozhu was chasing in the rain and the prisoner disappeared on her knees and cried bitterly, playing when she was nervous. Sensational, and I am not afraid that the men who may be nearby will ambushed in turn, maybe my brain is flooded. The other one was also criticized by many netizens. Eagle Falcon was obviously seriously injured, but suddenly his vitality came back to life. On the way to the hospital, he turned back and ran to the track to shoot the male protagonist to death. Let people be the protagonists, and the protagonists don't die.
