The movie has a romantic beginning, with bizarre photography, personalized editing, and a high-quality opening, with the kind of texture that the poster wants to express. All the way down, it gradually became mediocre. No photo editing could find the North, but it was not completely out of balance. Tsui Hark could still hold on. The movie has many insights, enhances the connotation of the dialogue, and likes to tell stories to compare the current situation of the characters. It has its own flavor of Hong Kong movies, but it is less confident than the exquisite dialogues of Hollywood movies. The movie does not analyze the mental world of the killers, but only uses their lives to interpret their own existence.
The killer clip, on a bright afternoon, Ajie was testing a gun in a room with an open window. A pigeon flew by and stopped at the window sill. This is a perceptual imagination of the killer, and it also prepares the ground for a long and fierce melee later. The calmer it is, the more terrifying it is. The atmosphere is getting tense, and this room will be turned into a battlefield. The most worth mentioning is this melee that doesn't seem to stop. It has played almost all the killer's proficient fields, strategic planning, terrain detectives, demolition traps, camouflage, racing, free fighting, guns and throwing knives. It takes a lot of thought. The unpredictable details in this episode are worth chewing deeply. You will be amazed by the superb killing methods of the killers, which can be regarded as domineering and violent aesthetics. Night Rose's killer turned into a day cockroach, fighting to the death. The sound effects here are extra points, mysterious, terrifying, and dull, like a tight steel wire, quivering. Wu Bai is a killer, and Gong Shuoliang with a braided head is even more eye-catching. He was also beautiful at that time.
South America is the yearning for this movie. There are beautiful beaches there. With hope, you can go far away. Maybe this is the difference between Azheng Ajie and those mercenaries. The dead are lonelier than anyone else. Loyalty is enough to cause trouble, a man of loyalty, if you give it up once, the love is not heavy, just because you can't let it go, and the choice is urgent, it will be more popular. Azheng Ajie is not a life-or-death relationship. He has only met a few times, but he can be in love with each other. Ajie's criminal police captain transcends mutual assistance outside the law, which is what he wants to express outside the action scenes of the movie.
Compared with the Cantonese version, I prefer the tone of the Mandarin version, which is more aggressive and more ruthless.
