Congrats Luc Besson, still good at telling stories! The film continues Mr. Besson's favorite female protagonist's revenge story. It's a pity that Miss Johansson is acting insane. 1 The structure of the film has Besson's constant characteristics, the tiger head, definitely grabs the eye for the first three minutes. It's gorgeous. Then, relax in the second half. However, the laxness this time is not the laxness of the script and the story, but the support of the scientific part that is cited in a sci-fi film, which is difficult to fully describe and ultimately believable. From this point of view, the film has the same problem as "HER". So the viewers' doubts gradually rose as the plot progressed, which made no sense. Yes, the science part doesn't make sense. Still soft science fiction. But if it is required by the type structure of the action movie, the story itself conforms to the standard structure, there is no nonsense at all, it is crackling, and it is simply told. 2 A montage of the first third of the film. It's like going back to the audio-visual language class of the year. This structure sounds very simple and even a bit silly, but it actually looks good when implemented, and has a slight stream of consciousness color. I'm afraid that because Hollywood's smooth 0-degree editing has been used for too long, such a flexible montage can be reused, which feels quite luscious and fresh. 3 Unexpected surprise: actually from the description of the loneliness of a large number of young Westerners living in Asia in the opening sequence. Much better than the "poetic" description of the fake little emotions in "Lost in Translation". Luc Besson's rhythm, especially the quick montage of the Korean gang arrest, is so well cut that the real horror comes out. "Are you speak English?" "Can you speak English?" Lucy's fears before the transformation were absolutely real. 4 Choi Min-sik Needless to say. One character eats Johansson, Freeman's entire performance. 5 Good-looking action movie, soft sci-fi, 75% completion.
