The story itself is true, but after watching the film, it feels like it is fabricated. Liu Ye's acting skills can't be complimented. On the contrary, the supporting role with a northeastern accent left a deep impression on me, and the characters are full and real. just now.
The clue of the whole story is Liu Xing's memories after his downfall. From the moment of the letter, it is divided into two time-spaces, one is the time-space of his past memories after the shot of the letter at the beginning of the film, until the shot of the letter at the end of the film returns to the present time-space. In fact, the ending of the story has been revealed in the previous section of the cowboy shootout. In the back, I used this bridge segment to make a repeat montage, which played a role of emphasis. The overall narrative is fairly smooth, but the director may have paid too much attention to formal things, which made the story of this film insufficient, so the conflicts and collisions were not strong, and the explosion at the end was not strong enough. I personally don't feel like I was overwhelmed by the ending, and the two women that Meteor met didn't make me feel like they would contribute much to the theme of the story or to Meteor's characters, and the two characters are not If it is not shaped, it is not more attractive than the "Northeastern accent" guy.
In short, I don't appreciate this movie, watching him only because of the "Lu Gang incident" and the collision of two cultures.
