After watching "Crazy Stone" and "Two Smoking Guns" recently, I tried to briefly talk about the two films. In fact, the similarities and differences between the two films can be seen from the character relationship diagrams of the two films.
1. Both are theft, but the core concept of theft is different
The theft in "Two Smoking Guns" is all head-to-head, just do it when you open the door, snatch it directly, and leave when you get the money;
"Crazy Stone", whether it is theft by international thieves or local thieves, all pay attention to methods and methods. Before the theft, familiarize yourself with the surrounding environment, do a good job in strategy and subordinate distribution, and use the three-person team (Daoge Xiaojun black skin) when stealing The sound of the east and the west, the methods used by Xie Xiaomeng can be traced back to ancient Chinese tricks, Bao Shihong's method of protecting the law, etc., all reveal the wisdom of ancient China that has been inherited to the present.
BMW Don't Touch Me, Sleeping Woman's Capital, Shanzhai Goods, Fat and Water Does Not Flow Outsiders, Tian Funer is But Sister-in-law (referring to Xiaojun's sleeping brother's girlfriend), fraud methods (referring to cheating on the subway), etc., the whole film comes with a burden There is a stalk, until this year 2018, it still feels very stalking?.
2. Although there are references, but the essence is very different
The number of deaths that can be counted in "Two Smoking Guns" is 13, not including the person who was burned by Harry's pouring alcohol. I don't know if this person is dead, and the four people involved in the crime (Ed, Tom , Beacon, Soap) but got out safely and got £50;
Whether it was a thief or Feng Dong, who did evil in "Crazy Stone", got the end they deserved, and people like Bao Shihong gained a good reputation; the film conveyed good and evil more clearly and clearly, while Guy Ritchie's Dilute good and evil and right and wrong, and make it more hard-box black humor; in the end, although Ning Hao borrowed the narrative techniques and inspiration of "Two Smoking Guns", from the overall and details of the film, "Crazy Stone" is a director. A film with outstanding personal style and successful localization and marketization.
Movies know no borders, and the stories go deep into the land. Such movies include "The Unknown", "The Burning Sun", "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and so on.
The film reviews that I wrote down are not professionals.
