Let’s talk about what I feel bad about first, the shortcomings are always more impressive:
Andy Lau’s Mandarin is dubbed. I knew this before I watched it. Director Feng used the dubbing because Andy's Mandarin was not standard enough, but I heard Andy's voice a lot. Looking at his face, what popped out of his mouth was a tender guy in his twenties. The sound? It's very uncomfortable, it affects me into the play, I only get used to it after seeing half of it. I think this is superfluous. Andy's Mandarin has a bit of Hong Kong and Taiwan flavor, but it doesn't affect the plot. It doesn't involve where he is from. Compared with Chow Yun-fat and Michelle Yeoh's Mandarin in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Andy's Mandarin is quite standard. .
Too many ads, too conspicuous. In order to make more money, I understand, but I still want to vent my dissatisfaction after being raped repeatedly. This advertising money is really worth it, I basically remember it, BMW, canon, HP, nokia, digbao. ).
Poor stunt. Stunts are not the selling point of this film. The main stunts are used to combine the interior of the train with the scenery outside. The train is placed in the studio, and the outside of the train is full of blue screens. This should not be difficult, but in individual scenes (especially The scene where Ge You reprimanded You Yong and Lin Jiadong at the back of the car gave me the same feeling as when I was a child watching CCTV's Sun Wukong flying through the clouds.
The soundtrack is abrupt, and a little bit of a robbery. Several times with the music I immediately noticed it. The opening song is a French song, I don't understand it, I don't feel it, why do I like to use foreigners' songs now? In the end, Yang Kun's song was used for sensationalism. To be honest, that voice is really not suitable for sensationalism. The song of milk tea at the end of the film is good, but unfortunately half of it was clicked by the cinema.
Several stealing scenes are garishly cut. Although I wanted to cut out the feeling of dancing with the soundtrack, I only saw that the camera cut so fast, I couldn't tell which hand belonged to, who made the knife, and whose hand was scratched. After being dazzled, you can only watch the plot behind to know who won the result, which is not worth the loss.
Let's talk about other places, which belong to high standards and strict requirements.
lines. This has always been the biggest highlight of Director Feng's films, and each film can bring out a few trend-setting nb lines. The few quasi-nb lines in this film are all from the mouth of Ge You. Since many people have not seen it, I will not give an example. It may be that the highlight lines of
Performance. They are all starred by famous directors and famous actors, and even the supporting roles can be named. There is definitely no problem in this regard, and I can't find anything wrong with it as an amateur. Ge You said it was a friendship performance, but he still thought it was the leading role. The role was very good and he grabbed the scene. I also liked him stealing the scene. But it's not as good as the two scenes of Li Chengru and Fu Biao in "The Big Name"; let's say it's a bit unkind, personally I don't like Li Bingbing. "Just based on your knowledge, you can't attract me" (pointing to Li Bingbing's chest at the time, the line was so general, I can't remember the specifics).
plot. Based on the novel, the story is pretty good, full of freshness, much better than Zhang Yimou's "House of Flying Daggers". The ending was arranged very well, and finally gave me a shot of cardiotonic when I was disappointed, and the mm next to me wiped her tears with a towel, hehe. There are definitely flaws, and the more conspicuous one is the loss of a token that runs through the plot (not that I really lost it, but I didn't explain the destination).
After writing for a long time, I found out that most of what I wrote were shortcomings. I think it is because the advantages are easy to say "good", but difficult to describe in detail, and the disadvantages are always more conspicuous. This film is not a Feng's comedy that Director Feng is familiar with. It is a transitional work, and for the first time, a lot of stunts and action scenes have been incorporated. It is normal that it is not very successful. To emphasize again, saying so many dissatisfactions belong to high standards and strict requirements. This film is much better than the bad films of Hong Kong and Taiwan shown in many movie theaters. Compared with "Thousand Machines Change", I will not go if you give me the ticket price. There are a lot of movies you can watch at the box office, this movie is still worth watching.
