Du Qifeng is indeed playing a very big card, and the screenwriter Wei Jiahui is almost on the verge of taking the director's seat. It is basically a rhythm of six points Wei Jiahui, three points To Qifeng, and the remaining one point free play. Under the label of detective, its essence is a romantic comedy interspersed with small freshness and heavy taste. You can completely forget about crime, suspense and other elements. Just look at Andy Lau and Zheng Xiuwen singing together, Guo Tao and Gao Yuanyuan making jokes, and there are traces of tribute, spoof, and mapping everywhere. There are countless domestic and foreign works that have been shot. Anyway, I have never seen a director who can be so deliberate and painstaking, just to tell a love story.
As a superstar, Andy Lau, in recent years, the works that he has really come up with are better than nothing. Even the well-known "Sister Peach" was awarded the title of Ye Dexian. The smell of sauerkraut jars in "Tian Ji·Fuchun Mountain Residence" is still permeating the domestic theaters for a long time and cannot be dissipated. The opening of "Blind Detective" is just in time for the rain, and it is really necessary to purify the dirty air. . The most outstanding part of the film, and the most inconsiderate of the audience's feelings, is the endless eating scenes. Johnston, the blind detective played by Andy, was either eating or was on his way to eat the whole scene. Such an arrangement, from the joy at the beginning, to the deliberateness in the middle, finally becomes natural, just like there is no inspiration without eating, and the clues are all in the food. What a shame for those viewers who happen to be hungry. To use "blind cat touches mouse to death" to illustrate Johnston's case, that would be regarded as a compliment to him. It is simply a plug-in to open the god mode. Wherever you think, there is a crucial breakthrough; occasional biases and omissions are more emotional. OK, let's solve another unsolved case by the way. This kind of food creation logic is really high-end, and it's no wonder that the rookie He Jiatong is fascinated to death. It took Lao Du two hours to explain to us carefully and meticulously, the so-called detective, that is, seven points depend on hard work, three points are predestined, and the remaining 140 points, there is really no way to do it without food.
It is estimated that a large number of audiences will be applauded for the series of scenes of "Criminal Repeat". First, the same type of tactics have long been common; second, there is still the obvious suspicion of cheating. However, this does not affect its dramatic effect, because Zheng Xiuwen completely played the characters alive. In the simulated scenes, if it wasn't for her entering the scene at the right time, her emotional outbursts were extraordinarily natural, and she definitely wouldn't make people think that these were the effects of Johnston's "hypnosis", but rather a stupid idiot. The film has the meaning of completely inverting "My Sassy Girlfriend". The knife was slashed on He Jiatong's arm, but he didn't know that it was actually cut into the hearts of the audience, and the cruelty was satisfied to the point of being a bit evil.
In the process of watching "Blind Detective", I kept wandering around in two dramas, not "Dark War", "Gunfire", "Big Guy", "Slimming Men and Women", "The Detective", etc., but It's "The Great Magician" and "The Hearer". The former is the tone of "everything goes too far, everything is madness", while the latter is the complete opposite extreme with blind people as the protagonists. I always feel that Lao Du is making fun of "The Hearer of the Wind", isn't it? People are working hard, even blinding their eyes again, for the well-being of the toiling public; Red, but also hold the beauty back. Fortunately, Gao Yuanyuan's aesthetic taste is more important, otherwise all good things will be blinded by Johnston.
A major focus of the film is the unsolved case "Lovelorion = Missing", the answer to which is a taxi driver. The reasoning clues in it are cumbersome and messy, basically a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and also involve the center of gravity of the whole film. All the mysteries here, I think, should come from the first episode of the first season of the British drama "Sherlock". Compared with other scattered cases, this one is my favorite. Johnston single-handedly performed the crime scene in his self-consciousness, and talked with the missing girl. The horror revealed in it was full of bad taste, and it had a wonderful effect of laughing out of the most tense climax, which was quite good. In general, "Blind Detective" is obviously more interesting than To Qifeng's other previous works, and it is too noisy and enjoyable. "Blind Detective" is actually not worthy of the name, it is better to call it "blind talk", "blind people fall in love".
