to watch this film, and it was full of mixed feelings. You know, Martin Sykesses is one of my favorite directors, starting from his Mean Streets, to Angry Bull, to Taxi Driver, to Goodfellas, to the Age of Innocence, the godfather of gangster films, Not only did he photograph himself, but he also photographed Robert De Niro, his royal actor. Helpless, but he has never been able to win the favor of Hollywood. When the New York gangsters started, he began to flatter, but he still had some of his character. Later, the pilot was basically unwatchable, and now he has been reduced to buying Hong Kong. How can people be so unbearable to remake instead of creating an original movie? And the great De Niro didn't know where he died. The new one came to Leonardo. For the box office, he must find a beautiful face, even a man? It is undeniable that when he played Titanic, it was much better, and it was almost BOYS TO MEN, but, please, how could it be compared with De Niro! That's not an order of magnitude at all!
Looking at the adaptation of the plot, maybe he wants to show: Dear audience, I am not copying the original version, but I have carried out in-depth processing, my imagination is not lacking, I have considered the interests of your Western audiences. I rely on, you see I say slowly.
Let's talk about the characters first. Huang Qiusheng has split into two, one gentle and the other rough. Is this a deliberate deconstruction of this character's dual personality? After it was taken out, it was too masquerade. The Sven one was too pretentious, with the virtues of a good old man. When he fell down from the upstairs, he couldn't make people shocked. The rough one could be called vulgar. Now, words like FUCK are probably the cleanest in his dictionary, so I haven't heard a word from him that isn't dirty.
