If you can be as chic as Andy, four days will be enough

More than ten years ago, on the small Changhong TV, Star TV played "Dark War", the only thing I remembered was this picture, and everything else was blank in my mind.

Stern and speechless, he walked unrestrainedly.

For more than ten years, the only impression - dashing.

Rewatching it now, I didn't expect that this feeling has not changed, but there are more interpretations of this feeling.

Suffering from cancer, he could only live for four weeks, Andy said, "It doesn't matter."

In four weeks, avenge his father. Andy gained a friend; met her on the bus.

There is no cruel and serious atmosphere like "I'm sorry, I'm a policeman" like "Infernal Affairs". There's a lighthearted, hilarious layer of friendship to the cop-robber relationship in Dark War. Lau Ching Wan (the policeman) and Andy (the bandit) have formed a friendship in the chases and battles over and over again. Just like the rare friendship between Leonardo and Hanks in "The Game of Cat and Mouse". I love the fight between the two, the funny moments, and the final parting.

Andy is dashing from beginning to end in this play.

get away gracefully

Even spitting blood casually.

What keeps me reminiscing is that she met the handsome him.

The two times Andy met Meng Jiahui on the bus. The reason why Andy sat next to her both times was to avoid police searches and pretend to be a couple with her.

The details of these two times are very interesting. The first time Andy asked Meng Jiahui to rest her head on his shoulder. Meng Jiahui's eyes were full of fear and worry.

First encounter

And the second time, Meng Jiahui took the initiative to put her head on his head. When she realized that the police did not come to search, she smiled. I think the most beautiful smile in the film is this moment.

Second encounter

She knew he was a criminal, she knew his crime, and she liked him.

Andy finally gave her the stolen 80 million gems, which she thought was a bargain. After that, he disappeared. But she still wore the "cheap" because it was from him.

I think if I can be as dashing as Andy, four days will be enough.
