Looking good is not the goal

Obviously Feng Xiaogang is not one of the most thoughtful Chinese filmmakers, but from "Beijing People in New York" to "A World Without Thieves", most of these works are very good-looking, and people with discerning eyes can see that good-looking, not only Feng Xiaogang the goal of. Of course, looking good is an important prerequisite for a "good" movie.

There should be no doubt about the beauty of "A World Without Thieves", whether it is a big scene, such as the location of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, or small details, such as the tricks of various thieves. Whether it's emotional drama or black humor, the starting point of the film, in my opinion, may not be true or not, because people with a little common sense know that a real super thief would not cheat a BMW. This is also a failure of the story, at least dissatisfied with some people who love the truth. There is also the trick of leaving the car to protect the handsome, the part of pretending to rob, which exceeds the limit of black humor, becomes too sketchy, and does not match the "seriousness" of the film until the end. But all these soft and hard injuries can't obliterate this good-looking film that also says "things".

The most exciting dialogue, I thought it was halfway through, Andy Lau wanted to get off the car, Rene Liu disagreed and insisted to accompany and protect the silly root, the dialogue between the two is no longer a line, but in a similar life reality, any two have similar contradictions People will have disputes. "Why can a fool believe that there are no thieves in the world? Why not let him know the cruelty of life through this incident? No one can answer several of Andy Lau's questions, and neither does the movie itself. But Andy Lau helped people to the death, it should be said , this is a good ending.

Looking back, this is not a movie that makes you laugh, and it doesn't make you cry. I thought it was a movie that wanted to talk about things, like most of Feng Xiaogang's works. As for how much, what level, that's another story. 2008, 12,
