There was a weekend by chance, and it was inevitable to watch TV at home, and I chose a high-definition channel by chance, and I chose this movie by chance.
Choosing this movie viewing tour has nothing to do with the name of the movie. I even searched Baidu for a long time to know the name of the movie. Fortunately, someone asked the same question as me, "Who is Angel Nicholas?" Actually, I want to come now , fortunately I didn't know the name of the movie at first, otherwise it would have been treated negatively as a general action movie.
The first thing that attracted me to the movie was the large biography of the hero in the opening sequence, paired with his extremely serious face, which I guess must be a comedy, just what I need for a weekend getaway. Immediately afterwards, the appearance of his boss confirmed this. His smiling face on his fists immediately let the audience read out the true meaning of hiding a knife in a smile. Sure enough, he was going to be demoted to the countryside, a small town called Shafu. The appearance of the inspector and the chief inspector is similar to that of a Hong Kong comedy. They all tell Cao Cao that Cao Cao must arrive immediately in order to play a funny atmosphere that cannot be prevented. It seems that this kind of cultural aggression should not be underestimated. Before asking the chief inspector, the inspector pretended to be nervous, but his funny expression had already exposed Xiao Jiujiu, who was complicit between them. He even called out the name of the chief like an old friend. Only the hero, Angel Nicholas, was still pure, serious, and angrily thinking that there was still opportunity. The Inspector General is well versed in the world. I guess that before he came in, he must have arranged for the whole police station to rehearse the farewell ceremony. He did not give the angel police officer a chance to talk, but a straight-to-the-point showdown. We are a group with a plan. exclude you! What can you do? I'm the inspector general!
Unsatisfactory work and unhappy relationship, in the process of saying goodbye to his ex-girlfriend, Angel suffered a series of black humor blows, from the short conversation and his expressionless after continuous blows, to the fact that he did not forget to observe the murder scene. Speech, we can fully judge that he is a workaholic who has no sense of humor, never caring about others, and is too stern and serious. For example, he mistook his ex-girlfriend Jenny's male colleague as Jenny. After telling him that he was going to be transferred, he went to a small town. After Jenny, who was standing next to him, corrected him, he said it again without a word. And the plant he likes is also very interesting, a Japanese white crane lily that looks like a plastic artificial flower.
After talking so much, I suddenly feel that I am a little off topic, but watching British movies, it is inevitable to get off topic, you never know what the director wants to express, and you can't guess why the screenwriter is so showy with details, but who cares, maybe I In the process of thinking about it, I have fallen into a reasoning similar to the angel police officer in the play about the murder of Suffolk, but the truth is so naked and simple, because a bunch of old men and women are not used to it. The director and screenwriter are actually very simple, the audience likes it, and then pays for it.
The second thing that attracts me is the name of the characters in the play, which is like a personal label. It is very simple for a British film that has always had many characters, interspersed and misplaced stories, and developed extremely fast plots. , direct, effective, and even more gospel for those of us who rely on subtitles to watch foreign movies.
Now let's talk about why I want to change the name of the movie. Except for the final climax, I didn't see any blood, and there was not too much exaggerated action. It is completely different from the previous action movies with the word "blood". Maybe it will be changed to "Blood". "The Murder in Shafu Town", made into a detective movie, with a little religious overtones, would be more comprehensive, or "The Workplace of the Police Station", a Chengdu workplace movie, showing how a fighting young man encounters setbacks in the workplace. But the directors of the two lines did not adopt it. It is still the same sentence. Everything serves business and serves the rich point of British humor.
Of course, some people have summed up some political implications from the clue of "Safford Town Murder", saying that "in order to maintain the appearance of beauty and peace in the town, they continue to secretly kill those who violate the norms, and the residents of anesthesia and brainwashing also imply innuendo. Some of the hidden political killings satirize the deformed social formation in a spoof way." I disagree. First of all, this film is not a spoof at all. Pirate Radio" and "Trainspotting", you will find that the blood of this movie is very pure, traditional, and even swearing is so British. What is a spoof? A small domestic movie is called a spoof. It smears others, stinks itself, disgusts the audience, and engages in transnational culture. Second, British movies are not American movies, so it’s easy to tease the EU, Russia, China, or the current battle hotspot – Syria. I think it's more about the evil of human nature and the horror of collective crime. If you see anyone who is unhappy, you want to make someone disappear. Everyone has this idea, but the way of expressing it is different. The people in Shafu Town are like a group of people Demons who act recklessly and regard life as grass, but their starting point is very simple, just like a group of children who play together treat children who don't fit in, they are determined to strike down, and this kind of attack between children is sometimes very cruel. , and even lead to bloodshed. And this is by no means a political game that any sovereign country dares to play, but there are two points that deserve our vigilance. The first is to do things solidly. You can't just play face-to-face projects with the judges, and waste people and money for no reason. The second is collective Wisdom is not necessarily powerful, or it may become the driving force of some bad elements, causing disaster.
