** Caused by the rift!
It's been a long time since I've seen such a shocking cop action movie.
The work "Fighting Evil" was jointly completed by Xie Miao and An Zhijie.
In the style of the film, there is one word that stands out in particular, and that is "Burst!"
The last time I witnessed such a shocking movie, it was an online blockbuster for the two of them. The first two years of "No One in My Eyes" performed very well, the plot was coherent, and even regained the forgotten "martial arts" style. In the new work, Semyon pushed his acting skills to the peak. The main character is Semyon.
The movie "Blind War" shows the ** era of Hong Kong films, and the handsomeness of the leading actors is shocking. An Zhijie, a charismatic actor, interprets the role vividly and fascinatingly. The protagonist is An Zhijie.
Last year, he worked on two of the most exciting action films, one of which was "Northeast Police Story 2", starring Semyon. A strong action atmosphere envelops "Chase Zero", An Zhijie's superb acting skills add a lot of highlights to the film, the audience seems to be in a tense and exciting chase, the scene is thrilling and eye-catching. In the work "Pursuit of Zero", An Zhijie is the main actor.
After doing the math, I found that the best performance in Chinese action movies is not in the cinema, but in the online university.
In other words, between these two people.
We really don't know when we'll be able to put on a show for these two in a movie?
I'm sure I'm not just an action movie lover, I've thought that way too.
This year's Spring Festival schedule has been arranged. Sadly, it's not in the cinema.
On the first day of the new year, I ** learned the plot of the heroic sacrifice of a blind man in the movie "No One in My Eyes 2", and in the third year of junior high school, these two finally presented a 4-minute fight scene together in the film. Semyon asked me to introduce herself to him, and she said that she was an ordinary female teacher. Just because of this short 4 minutes, the 9 yuan I spent is not unjust (don't ask me why I spent 18 yuan to watch movies online during the Chinese New Year, just ask Semyon. ）
I'm more inclined to call it the best action movie of the year.
In this era, there are still some domestic action movies that make the good actors of old Hong Kong films feel extremely excited?
Indeed it is. Observing the action of this chain game, what comes to your mind? The work "Naked Dragon".
Look at this long shot: the two heroes work together and start a fierce battle. In the current Chinese film industry, there are still a few people who have the ability to complete this task?
This director is An Zhijie's old friend, and he is also the director of "Blind War" and "Zero Pursuit" Huo Suiqiang.
If this film does make it, I'm sure there will be a lot of cinema screenings that will make people blush!
Not convinced? Let's enjoy Douban together! The crowd agrees surprisingly well on this.
According to the evaluation criteria of the online university, this work really exceeded our expectations. ”
What is surprising is that the two tough guy partners composed of Semyon and An Zhijie still have a subtle sense of CP".
Walking this path should be a click is dry".
Although the reputation is good, the popularity is still unabated? In the 2 hours since the show was launched, it managed to reach the 2nd place on the soaring list and 94 of the opening points.
In the duel between the "violent police" Semyon and the "most fierce bandit" An Zhijie, they showed amazing combat effectiveness?
In the Chinese-language film industry, the two of them work hand in hand, and they seem to be empty-eyed and unmatched.
From the beginning to the end, there are no urine spots throughout the whole process, and you can enter the plot in 1:1 seconds.
A certain city! The young chemistry professor intended to let the student fail the course, but he didn't expect the female student to be very ruthless, and followed the teacher into the private laboratory with a little unhappiness.
As soon as he walked in, the professor hung him up.
Is this a thriller movie? Wait a minute, the next moment, a cleaner catches the security guard's eye.
Obediently following instructions? That's impossible, An Zhijie, look at this arrogant face.
The countdown time is 3 seconds.
3 Act quickly and kick hard to eliminate a security guard.
2 Spin one whirlwind leg and pour another one.
1 A spring-shaped throwing knife that wiped out the last one.
After knocking on the door, he walked into the room and found that the person who was hanging had turned into a chemist who specialized in the formula for calculating dupin.
However, before anyone could take it out of the lab, the bullets had already broken the lab's glass, causing the entire lab to be covered in heavy fire.
The gunman on the opposite side received an order: "It is better to protect the professor, you can't and can't let him fall into the hands of others." ”
This tight backdrop** and hardcore tense atmosphere is reminiscent of the style of old-school Hong Kong movies. The man in a black leather coat and sunglasses pulled out his gun with a cold face, as if he were in a movie-like scene. As someone who has seen many Hong Kong police movies, how could I not recognize it?
This fully demonstrates the high burning sensation on the screen, which perfectly fits the style of traditional Hong Kong films, and can be performed in less than 1 second!
An Zhijie is always sitting still? As expected, in the next second, the snipers in the empty building opposite were hit by bullets and fell from the building, but fortunately arrived at the scene in time.
But the exit has been blocked by gun owners, how to leave?
The smoke bomb suddenly **, causing smoke to rise in the corridor. A chair flew out with the "Professor".
When the gunman saw that the "professor" was in a safe state, he immediately rushed into the laboratory.
At this moment, the "professor" sitting in the chair suddenly stood up, and the thrown knife shot out instantly, and the fire flew out.
The scene was chaotic, and the gunman, who failed to react in time, was directly knocked down.
The person sitting in the chair is undoubtedly An Zhijie.
From being in trouble to successfully escaping, the Gunslinger Regiment was wiped out outside the door for 40 seconds!
The trio's task of catching people is clearly divided, and there is nothing superfluous to say.
First of all, it is necessary to clear the miscellaneous soldiers on the opposite side.
A professor in charge of indoor management.
An Zhijie disguised himself as a professor and was responsible for clearing the gunmen outside the house.
Everything seems to be within our control.
However, in the next frame, the formula for making poison developed by the professor is depicted on the wall, and the defended professor has a fish stuffed in his mouth.
He had a chemistry professor in his hand, and although he had a lot of strange items, he didn't use them, but instead stuffed the fish into his mouth, attracting the eyes of **, and taking them to the dock where the fish was sold.
For what reason?
It is obvious that the "mystery man" Wei Yun Zhouzhi played by An Zhijie is not a dupin, he is just waiting for someone:
The captains of the anti-narcotics team, Huang Mingjin and Xie Miao, have already appeared.
The story has just begun.
2: Re-enter the world of theater, where two top masters have a fierce duel, and the excitement of the scene is dazzling.
It's a fascinating story about two top-notch cops working together to crack an underground trap set by the masterminds behind the scenes: King Long.
Even the movie is not hidden, King Long is the mayor of an overhead city in Southeast Asia played by Lian Kai.
He wields enormous power, knows both black and white, and is very familiar with the plot of the Batman series.
However, in a cop-themed action movie, the city is always just a superficial phenomenon. The only decisive element of the film's *** bad is its fight scenes.
Real action is the core ethos of action movies.
However, have you noticed that in the development of action movies, it has been difficult to watch exciting action scenes anymore, and now it is more about slow motion and special effects to attract the audience.
However, the film clearly started production straightforwardly.
An Zhijie led a group of people to wait at the dock for a long time, and it was he who brought ** here.
When the police vehicle arrived, they first fired several rounds of long-range sniper bullets.
It wasn't until Xie Miao appeared, ah no, the car of the anti-narcotics policeman Huang Mingjin finally arrived, that An Zhijie showed his true face.
What an amazing guy!
When this powerful fire was unleashed, the police immediately felt dizzy.
However, what exactly was the purpose of Semyon's arrival? A car drove by, speeding away in the direction of An Zhijie's heavy machine gun.
Must be firm, okay, come on!
A closer look revealed that there was no one in the car.
Semyon calmly aimed at the car's fuel tank and managed to hit it with a bullet that caused the car to be blown into the sky.
After several rolls, the vehicle accurately hit the heavy machine gun controlled by An Zhijie.
Okay, I've got you here.
At the same time, the SWAT unit of ** arrived at the scene and formed a battle formation, so that the gunmen of the drug dealers had to retreat while fighting.
As he retreated, he guided Dupin to the water, intending to transfer.
However, An Zhijie's real concern is not about objects, but about people.
The next scene, the most shocking battle sequence in the entire movie, will be shown: the battle between the cargo compartments of the freezers.
An Zhijie's purpose in bringing Semyon into the cargo hold was precisely to show the dupin hidden in the seafood.
Still, there must be no absence.
In a cramped space, the two actors took it upon themselves to stage the most exciting fight scenes of the year.
Observe that action first:
Semyon's performance style is more inclined towards action stars in traditional domestic entertainment, such as traditional martial arts and close-quarters combat.
An Zhijie's action art will integrate more European and American combat elements, such as MMA fighting and jiu-jitsu locks.
If we have to compare, Semyon's performance is closer to Jet Li in "Naked Dragon", while An Zhijie's performance is closer to Donnie Yen in "Fuse".
This match is a showdown between a "sledgehammer and a short knife".
A variety of different movements and techniques are applied.
The knife begins to spin.
Swing violently with a sledgehammer.
The rabbit rides an eagle.
There's also this series of sequential action combinations.
I really have to say, these are real fights.
There is also extra space:
In the freezer, the legs can't move freely, and this restricted movement just happens to huddle the two people together.
Close combat, counterattacks with throwing knives, and Nebula's chains.
In the struggle, these two people expanded the space vertically.
The two men alternated between the narrow and elongated space, punching and kicking each time, making people's palms sweat.
Let's be frank. **During this paragraph, I couldn't help but recall the toilet fight scene in "Tohoku Police Story 2".
However, the difference between the two is obvious.
Northeast Police Story 2 shows a comprehensive combat experience of similar fighting techniques.
Hunt Down Evil attempts to present a clash between two different styles of action.
In the end, An Zhijie received the whistle after work, immediately blew up the exit, and left the scene.
I glanced at the ** below and saw that the movie had been ** for 4 minutes.
Needless to say, I was already involved in theatrical performances early on.
This showdown between masters showcases all the advantages that a good cop action movie possesses.
The fast-paced plot, the hardcore duel between real kung fu masters, the clean and neat action scenes, and excellent acting skills.
Who can not experience the intense chemical interaction between An Zhijie and Semyon?
Heroes cherish heroes and have a great time playing.
But when the battle is over, how do we go about it?
Isn't that coming right away?
3: In the action version of "Bloody Heroes", its ** degree is more serious.
In the first 20 minutes of "Hunting Evil", I was already aware of the existence of "Bloody Heroes". This ** is adapted from a police film, and there are many similarities with police and gangster films in terms of plot, both of which are based on the grievances and hatred between the police and bandits. The relationship between the police and the criminals is not a simple confrontation, but gradually changes from initial antagonism to cooperation, and eventually becomes each other's confidants.
The common enemy they face is none other than the King Long in the movie.
There is a play that left a deep impression on me, An Zhijie invited Semyon to become a fan, ** quickly blocked the scene, the sniper aimed remotely, as long as Semyon deviated slightly from the head, the bullet could accurately hit An Zhijie.
However, the subject of An Zhijie's discussion with him was how to unite against King Long.
According to the rules, Semyon should naturally arrest him.
However, Semyon's main concern is not rules, but justice.
As An Zhijie said: "You really love me deeply and don't do anything at all." ”
Eventually, An An managed to get out of the predicament, while Semyon stood there and watched him leave.
This kind of scene is very familiar to Hong Kong movie lovers.
The subsequent plot progression is also a typical Hong Kong movie.
The Rigid Policemen are temporarily suspended from their duties due to their disobedience to their superiors, while vengeful bandits discover the city sewers, the transport route of King Long, foreshadowing a bloody storm to come.
Contrast with the detailed lens language of theatrical films. Although the narration of "Hunting Evil" is a little rough, in this rough background, it also shows a more shocking and rugged style, which makes the tone of the whole film more firm and presents a more intuitive effect.
The final battle undoubtedly unfolded in the underground culvert, the den of the dragon and the line of communication.
In this fierce battle for the sewers, the director showed his best acting skills.
Under the long-term lens capture, the two heroes worked together seamlessly, the gunfire was overflowing, and the camera followed An Zhijie's flying knife to the opposite side, and Semyon used humans as a shield to quickly shoot the enemy.
When the flying knife flew back again, An Zhijie shot one shot after another, and the speed was as fast as lightning.
It's obviously an action scene, but at the same time, it touches people's emotions.
For men, justice and other things are the most romantic.
Due to the limitation of filming time, "Hunting Evil" was carried out almost all the time, no emotional scenes were involved, the two heroines were offline, the shooting was very clean and tidy, and there were no waste dramas.
That's just to do it.
4: An Zhijie and Semyon showed the strength of tough guys in the final showdown.
The focus of this film is undoubtedly on two male protagonists of equal strength.
As a long-term partner of the director, An Zhijie and Semyon have similar achievements in their careers. In the movie, his performance can be said to be willing, compared with the ancient puppet dramas of domestic entertainment, the contradictions and conflicts between them are often more attractive than the main dramas, which is the right direction for producing high-quality dramas.
In drama, its importance exceeds that of the fan.
However, there is a point of view that in the movie, the second role played by An Zhijie is indeed more eye-catching.
When the audience first sees the character of the mysterious bandit, they often mistake it for a male and female thief with extremely ruthless methods.
However, viewers soon realize that he is actually a former Marine and became a bandit because his teammate was killed by King Long. From start to finish, this was seen as a journey of revenge.
However, he chose the righteous police officer, played by Semyon, as his partner.
The appeal of An Zhijie's character has always been unique among the new generation of action stars.
The character he played this time is extremely ruthless and meticulous. He displays unparalleled handsomeness in battle, always exuding a glamorous charm without being over-the-top or too oily.
In the battle, An Zhijie will definitely not lose the game.
Whether it is in the firepower duel or in the combat action, An Zhijie's performance is very eye-catching. An Zhijie's martial arts attainments not only have amazing performance in fighting firepower and fighting movements, but his martial arts effect is even more shocking. It's a martial arts effect, and every move is extremely ferocious, and every punch hits the opponent's flesh, and it's also extremely ornamental. When An Zhijie turned around, the flying knife in his hand flew out like lightning, cutting through the sky and hitting the enemy's vital point accurately. The spring-loaded knife in his hand has become a symbol of the character.
In contrast, Semyon is more passive in the role of a police officer, more like being led by An Zhijie's nose, while in the fight scenes, he is more inclined to a realistic style without too many exaggerated movements.
Despite this, Semyon still relied on his deep acting talent to inject a unique charm into the role.
From the enthusiasm at the beginning, to the complicated entanglement of whether to catch An Zhijie, to the reporter's forced reading of the press release at the meeting, and finally his resolute attitude of confessing the truth in public, the performance was very good.
In one scene of the finale, he walks to his old friend's grave, hands him the salmon he loves, and softly tells him that King Long has been summoned and that the hatred of the departed souls has been avenged.
Then, with a relieved expression, he ordered his men who had come to arrest him to handcuff him.
In terms of theatrical performances, Semyon is not only outstanding among the group of action stars, but also quite solid among the new generation of stars, the only thing missing is a compelling story.
5: Say no more, action movies aren't popular anymore.
When it comes to action movies, no one can deny that this is a huge success for Hong Kong-made action movies.
There was a time when it was because of Hong Kong's action movies that they achieved great success in the Asian market and established themselves in the international film industry.
But those things are a thing of the past.
I had previously ** an interview with Semyon.
"There are two main factors contributing to the decline in the quality of action movie production," he noted. First of all, the professionals in the action movie industry are rarely noticed by the public, so the interaction between action stars is always so frequent, which makes this type of film lack novelty; Second, although the original intention of producing action movies in the industry is to pursue small but big returns, due to the higher production cost of action movies, this may further reduce the audience's enjoyment of them. ”
However, this also explains why works such as "Northeast Police Story", "Blind Detective" and today's "Evil Hunting" are worthy of our deep cherishment.
They are both serious and rare.
Although the production cost of this film is far from that of the big movies in the Spring Festival schedule, the two leading actors cannot be regarded as top stars, at most they can only be regarded as two Internet celebrities.
However, consider it from another angle.
Perhaps we should be thankful that they can still be seen on a large platform like Wangda.
Hong Kong-style action movies have not only gradually lost their former glory, but the former Hong Kong stars have also begun to enter their twilight years. A new generation of action actors is on the rise, and a new group of faces are beginning to emerge in the young Hong Kong film scene. Inadvertently, among the real Hong Kong film action superstars, Donnie Yen is still the one with the most. A new generation of action superstars has emerged, represented by martial arts masters at home and abroad, who have more exquisite skills and excellent performance abilities, and are redefining the style and pattern of action movies. Jackie Chan and Jet Li can no longer participate.
Although Hong Kong-style action movies are based on their sharp style and smooth plot pacing, what really matters is the good action actors.
If there is no "Naked Dragon" starring Jet Li, Yu Rongguang and Xie Miao, will it be very attractive?
Unexpectedly, in the past 20 years, it was the former young man Semyon who really showed the strength of Chinese action movies.
It should be pointed out that although "Fighting Evil" is very attractive, there are also many shortcomings in it. Semyon's acting path gradually narrowed, and An Zhijie's performance failed to make up for it. Although the battle scenes between the two heroes are very intense, due to the too hasty plot and too simple character setting, the attraction of the characters is largely brought by Semyon An Zhijie.
Despite the film's many shortcomings, it successfully captures the core elements of the old Hong Kong film and does not waste the audience's precious time.
Compared to many large, but inappropriate, domestic productions, this is a way to accomplish a major task for a small amount of money!
Of course, the most crucial point is that neither Semyon nor An Zhijie disappointed.
I really hope that these two will continue to work together, because the chemistry between them is undoubtedly excellent, and a movie is not worth watching.
In the end, I want to recall what Yu Rongguang said in "Naked Dragon": What is the purpose of earning a few hundred yuan a month?
Indeed, action movies are so poorly performed, what exactly are you fighting for? Not to mention simply because the network is huge.
In what era are people still insisting on authentic craftsmanship?
Are you stupid?
Fortunately, with this group of people, we, the audience who love real kung fu, have the opportunity to enjoy wonderful performances.
Although there are several large online action movies, their impact may not be significant, and there is no need to think about it at all if you want to save Chinese action movies.
However, Semyon and An Zhijie are worth it for the movie, the action movie, and the audience.
It is because of their existence that I am more inclined to believe that the faint starlight in Chinese action movies is actually a kind of hope.
Movie Fight Evil
