As one of the originators of Hong Kong gambling films, the 1989 "God of Gamblers" can be called Fatty Wang's most successful commercial masterpiece. The story is actually very cliché, and it may be bad vulgarity for someone else to play Gao Jin. But Fatty Wang reshaped Xu Wenqiang and Brother Xiao Ma, and reshaped Brother Fa. Fage's performance is undoubtedly textbook level. He succeeded in being so domineering that he could deal with any situation in the arena calmly, and after amnesia, he could switch between the two "gods of gamblers", which seemed silly but not stupid and cute and innocent. It can be said that his accomplished acting skills have turned a conventional story into a living legend. And "God of Gamblers" Gao Jin has also become one of his most memorable and iconic roles after Xu Wenqiang and Xiao Ma. Many people have always criticized Andy Lau's acting skills when he was young, thinking that he would only pose big, be handsome and cool. And I always thought that Andy played the role of a gangster like "Knife" well enough. Thinking about it carefully, under the pretentious appearance of these little gangsters, isn't it just a little naive and cute that they are cultivated with enthusiasm and rash loyalty? Watching the young, cool and handsome Liu Tianwang and the equally youthful and beautiful Wang Zuxian have sex and fight in the film, it really makes people want to recall their youthful past and good times... However, "God of Gamblers" is about a relationship after all. The story of the rivers and lakes. The sinister nature of the rivers and lakes lies in the fact that there will be entanglements of grievances and hatreds anytime, anywhere, and there will be bets of success or failure anytime and anywhere. All good things are just a foil for this gamble. The murder of Janet, played by Zhang Min, and the rebellion of Gao Yi, played by Long Fang, are just an introduction. As soon as you enter the rivers and lakes, you enter the gambling game. All corners of the country, all corners of the country. In the end, Gao Jin still won, while Gao Yi and Chen Jincheng lost. It's very conventional. However, did Gao Jin really win? On the table, can all the chips he won offset the costs he lost? A game ends and a game starts. (The last thing I want to say is: Lying on the comfortable kang head in my hometown in the afternoon, I am also betting on this long article. The bet is how many revs and how many likes. Leisure is the hardest, it is better to fight landlords. )
