There was a lot of gossip, because I just watched Du Qifeng's new film "Blind Detective". Due to the needs of the plot, the film has almost no action scenes of fighting and gunfights. Perhaps in order to enrich the background of the literary drama and express Johnston's peaceful and humorous character, the whole film is full of eating scenes, and after watching the whole film, I feel like I ate it. A plate of T-bone steak, whether it tastes good or not, is a very deep impression.
On the one hand, the side dishes are excellent. Whether it's lettuce onions or potatoes and tomatoes, the ingredients are fresh and tasty, making people look forward to the upcoming main course. Corresponding to the movie, the first half is very good, whether it is tracking the suspect who spilled the water in the canal, or simulating the murder in the mortuary, the rhythm is smooth and brisk, and the characters have distinct personalities. Rough and real, they are all ready to show in the first half of the scenes, which makes people look forward to the big case that will be done next.
On the other hand, the main course was a huge disappointment. Whether it's the filet on the left of the T-bone or the sirloin on the right, the meat is of poor quality and rough processing. When it was put on the plate, it was suddenly heated for a while, and a large black lump was thrown on the table, making it tasteless. A pity to abandon. corresponds to the movie. The love scene between Zhuang and He is like Fei Li, who should have been fresh and tender, but it turned out that after Liu experienced the failure of confessing others and understood that Zheng was not ugly, it seemed logical to get together, so that the two protagonists were seriously injured one after another. When the audience was hoarse and crying, the audience felt pity but hardly moved. Besides, the most important piece of Xi Leng, which is the main line of the whole film to detect the whereabouts of Xiaomin, should be full of tenacity and endless aftertastes, but it is precisely the most boring and uninteresting part. The first is that the food is cheap and the meat is of poor quality. He's proposal to ask Zhuang to investigate the disappearance of his friend Xiaomin more than ten years ago is not very convincing. The development of the story also proves that Xiaomin and He have no fatal friendship. It can be said that it is far-fetched to draw out the following plot; the second is improper cooking and processing. In the process of investigating this case, Zhuang had almost no logical reasoning at all. In his own words, it was just a "blind guess". However, in the case of Chen more than ten years ago, he could guess the right direction every time and solve it incidentally. Another 10 cases of missing women were reported, and the plot was blunt and bizarre. After 100 minutes of lip service, Director Du couldn't hold back his fists. In the last 20 minutes, two fighting scenes were arranged one after another. Among them, whether it was because Yuen Long had a lot of delicious food and came to the mountain first and found out that the lunatic driver was the murderer of many cases, or just based on the fact that Xiaomin did not take a taxi, it can be deduced that she had escaped to Brazil for more than ten years and even had plastic surgery. And so on, all of which are the performance of the director who tried too hard and ended up indiscriminately after being unable to give a reasonable explanation, which made the most important main line of the whole film appear unreasonable and illogical from the beginning to the end, which seriously dragged down the first half of the film to the audience. good look and feel.
Perfect movies are hard to come by, and perfect steaks are hard to come by, but by purchasing fresh and reliable ingredients and processing them according to normal procedures, the taste is generally reasonable, and the same goes for making movies.
