What is "Fight of Trapped Beasts"?
It is when you know there is no way out, but you are still fighting for yourself or your lover.
Director Diao Yinan's "Party at Southern Station" sets the perspective on a platform that is only used for shelter in a rainstorm in a small town in the south, and still focuses on the quagmire of the bottom of society, watching how people in the sad scene everywhere fight to the death and bite. , or like a hedgehog in winter, temporarily put away all the thorns, keep a distance and hug together to keep warm. The film still maintains the desolate feeling of "Fireworks in the Daytime". After making countless efforts for people who are obsessed with "being smart", they can still only watch the illusory light of fireworks in the dark night.
[Let's talk about the role]
As for Zhou Zenong, fleeing is his struggle, being caught is his destiny, but love is the belief he supports and the shackle he is willing to accept. In terms of identity, he is a car thief, but in terms of his underlying character, he has always been a person with a conscience and a clear bottom line. To put it simply, he is a thief, not a lunatic. Hu Ge, who is trying to transform, has expressed the character's distress and worry in place, but he always feels that he has not completely sunk into the quagmire, but has a little bit of fierce energy. (The transition period is good enough. After all, it takes a long process to pull out the deep-rooted TV drama characters from the hearts of the audience.)
As an "innocent person" who is passively involved, the swimmer Liu Ai'ai always wants to protect herself, but because of her greed, she has been cocooning herself again and again, struggling is useless, only her instinct is left. She passively became Zhou Zenong's new hope in life, but she destroyed his hope again and again, and finally destroyed his own hope. Gui Lunmei has dedicated her good acting skills as always, and she is still the front-row candidate for several quiet actresses in Chinese art films (semi-art films).
【Overall Evaluation】
In general, "The Party at Southern Station" is a continuation of the style of director Diao Yinan. The story and character settings have basically maintained the 90% level of "Fireworks in the Day". There are deficiencies, the narration proportion and arrangement order of several characters can be connected with some skills.
The personal comprehensive review is between 7.8 and 8.0, which is very worth watching. It is not difficult to understand some audiences who criticize the stereotypes of the characters' stories. After all, everyone wants better, and they all hope that Chinese movies can become better.
One last digression.
When I think that I have liked Gui Lunmei for ten years, it's almost the year I like you.
