Every one to two years, "Anti-Corruption Storm" will come out with a sequel. I don't know if at the end of the year, "Anti-Corruption Storm 5" can come as promised.
Although the scores of several films swim back and forth at the passing line of 6 points, the good box office results and the strong lineup of standard actors in Hong Kong films still have a good appeal.
I have to say that "Anti-Corruption Storm" can always find marketing hotspots, such as the fourth part is the first time Lin Feng plays a villain.
ICAC is all too familiar with audiences who like to watch Hong Kong dramas, and anyone who invites them to talk will be served with a cup of coffee.
"Anti-Corruption Storm 4" tells the story of ICAC director Lu Zhilian (Gu Tianle) who went undercover in prison in order to have effective intelligence.
In addition to Zhou Xiuna, who was born in a young model, Tan Yaowen and Lin Jiadong are all old faces of Hong Kong films, and Zheng Jiaying and Lin Feng are veteran actors in Hong Kong dramas.
This lineup looks fine, and Lin Feng, who starred as a bad guy for the first time, also brought surprises. From the role of the little brother in the TV series to the handsome male protagonist who picks the beam, Lin Feng's obedient and even crazy rich second generation this time is still eye-catching.
In the publicity stage of the film, Lin Feng's acting skills and film special effects are the selling points of the film. Gu Tianle also packed the ticket and said that this scene will not disappoint everyone.
To be honest, even brushing a few "labor model" Gu Tianle movies, perennial screen domination is easy to aesthetic fatigue.
The neat oil head can get handsome points, but with the plot of changing the soup without changing the medicine, as well as those partner actors back and forth, it is difficult for Gu Tianle not to "string plays".
Gu Tianle said that the best way to decompress is to work, work, work. Since you love your work so much, have you ever thought of stepping out of your comfort zone and considering transformation?
The score of 5.9 points on Douban in "Anti-Corruption Storm 4" is not too bad, but it shows the reputation of the two poles.
The storyline of the new bottle of old wine, there are not too many accidents in one breath, more like a logical. The undercover agent worked hard, and in the end, evil was not victorious. Coupled with some reversals and fight scenes, many viewers who gave high scores thought that this was a big cool film.
However, for the audience who scored low scores, is the special effect promoted by this movie serious? Some of these explosion shots don't look much better than the Wumao special effect. Coming up with such visuals is a bit too perfunctory.
For the design of arranging for the director to go undercover directly, many viewers also expressed doubts. In previous films, most of the time IAC was a clerk, asking questions in the interrogation room, please drink coffee.
Moreover, in Hong Kong films, different functional departments will make some adjustments in the scenes for the sake of the plot. Sometimes the same type of case, in different movies, may be a major crime team, or it may be ICC or other departments to be responsible.
But there are not many cases of director-level investigators going deep into the tiger's den. And in order to promote the plot, in the absence of help, in the prison where the network is airtight, it is not realistic to integrate into it at once.
Helping the second generation of the rich fight, attracting attention, and only using the excuse of "lack of money", it is obviously suspicious. And later all kinds of doubts, obviously stuck in the place that makes people's hearts beat faster, but always perfunctory. One can't help but say: Huh?
There was also the prison director who dropped the key so bizarrely that he did not deliberately test Lu Zhilian. And the warden, though arrogant, was also quite cautious. The treatment here is also the big male protagonist script confusing.
There are a lot of details like this, but overall, "Anti-Corruption Storm 4" is not a bad movie.
From the first part of the tens of millions of box office, to the fourth part of the account of nearly 800 million yuan, word of mouth does not rise box office is also a kind of ability. As a mature IP, is a successful popcorn movie.
