I am more skeptical of this statement, because the strategy of bluffing next time is endless in real life, especially in some casinos, many gamblers also use it to perfection. However, I feel that as a sequel movie, playing the same emotional card again can easily make the audience lose their former interest. But it is undeniable that as long as feelings and actions can continue to be combined more tacitly, this must also have great attraction. A person who likes a dish may have one at noon and another at night.
But the producer may be an unscrupulous cook. When he found out that the braised pork he cooked at noon was recognized by many people, in the afternoon, he was in the air, and no longer tried to cook this dish, he used one bite. The huge pot frys thousands of braised pork at one time. Those new customers who come here, and those old customers who have endless aftertastes, pour in, but what they eat is not as delicious as noon at all. . Hurricane Rescue 2 feels like this, the signature dish has been fried.
In fact, I think the first part has created a very good "family". Because of the special nature of the agent's work, the living environment of the protagonist is different from ordinary people, so her wife turns to marry another man from a wealthy family. In a magical family of four, his daughter lived happily because her biological father, stepfather, and mother loved her very much. When the daughter was seventeen years old, this "smart" combination became a good background for the story, because happiness was mixed with a trace of bitterness of separation, but there were also mutual understanding between middle-aged people. That polite stepfather had an extremely good attitude toward his daughter, his wife, or his wife's ex-husband. But in the second part, this "fit" was torn to pieces immediately. The stepfather has suddenly become a man who doesn't care about his family, ignoring the requests of his wife and daughter and doing whatever he wants. And the story begins to play up the relationship between the hero and his ex-wife, and his daughter tells him that her mother thinks meeting her father is magical. The stepfather has completely become a background. He used his "disregarding the family" behavior to complete this new family of three. In a sense, he seems to have replaced the "irresponsible" biological father in the first movie. character of. His wife occasionally showed a hint of sadness, and as a daughter, she didn't seem to have any reaction to her stepfather's bad behavior. She is in love, and she still has a certain estrangement with her biological father. It's just that the nature of the estrangement has changed a bit. At first, the father managed too little, but now it is the father who manages too much. The speed of this transformation is really too fast.
Aside from these, if we don't consider the various backgrounds of the first film and just watch this film, there will be far more loopholes in the plot than the first film. It is a pity that the father-daughter relationship that can cover up these shortcomings in the first part no longer exists. In the first part, the young and helpless girl turned into a "female agent", she skillfully used grenades, skillfully drove a car and gangsters against Biao cars. The first civilian who wanted to shoot and kill the male protagonist turned into a "good comrade-in-arms" who would rather die than reveal the male protagonist's information here. After the gangsters captured the enemy, they let him break free so carelessly. When the male protagonist was fighting against a member of the underworld alone, the remaining avenger was hiding in a corner and shivering. I think he could kill the male protagonist as long as he appeared with a gun at will. But the most tangled thing is that the first time the Avengers captured the hero was by taking his wife as a hostage, and when the hero came again, the hostage turned out to be a burden, dragging them down pace. It's hard for me to imagine what kind of ending his rescue would have turned into if this group of people held several guns at the hero's wife. The fact that they don't take hostages is, in my opinion, more incomprehensible than the fact that a fired bullet would turn.
If we no longer consider the stepfather who loves his wife and daughter in the first movie, there is still a happy ending for four people. Unfortunately, rescue is no longer rescue. Because in this strange and illogical story environment, even if the male protagonist stayed at home and sang and danced, the gangsters might not be able to do any harm to his wife.
