Watch the movie from another angle

A legend with very strong male combat hormones: A Cuban remake of Alcapone. I really like the director's transition between calm and tense scenes. For example, at the beginning of the film, from the screaming of a chainsaw in the house and the war scene on the TV, and slowly zooming out, the people outside the house are completely unaware of the misery of their companions. Still picking up girls in the car, playing brisk pop music. Then let the camera go back to the TV in the house, back to the chainsaw scene. The dynamic and static complement each other very well. Another example is the assassination of Tony. At the beginning, the actors on the stage in the bar were doing comedy performances, and then the camera scanned the audience, and everyone was either clapping or laughing. At this time, two people with serious expressions and obviously incompatible with the environment appeared in the shot. At this time, the frame was frozen, and suddenly the joyful comedy music turned into a discordant and tense soundtrack. At this time, the two people also cooperated with the music. The pistol wrapped in cloth turned out to be the killer. He is indeed a veteran director of action movies, and the atmosphere is very well shaped.
When I watched this movie for the second time, I found that the characters in it were very good at predicting. In the beginning, Tony's boss jokingly gave Tony a lesson, not to underestimate the greed of others, and also mocked other people's "Hasa". As a result, he turned into a "Hasa" who couldn't go on the road. He was turned against the water by the wild and vigorous Tony, and he really got the boss on fire. The boss once warned Sosa that Sosa was a poisonous snake when Tony and Sosa were partnering, and then would bite someone in the back, but Tony actually murdered Sosa. There are many more such foreshadowings.
It is highly recommended for those who like tough guys and pure men, especially the scene where Tony picks a small army by himself with a submachine gun at the end. He can't stand up after a few bullets, and he still stands and yells at the enemy when the gun is dropped, very imposing. !
