The movie Monster City was released in late 1992 and is based on the fantasy novel of the same name by Japanese novelist Hideyuki Kikuchi. The director of the film is Xu Ke and Mak Dajie (however, from the perspective of the filming quality of this film, Xu Laowei may be more of a pseudonym), the producer is Golden Princess Film Production Co., Ltd., and the famous New Art City Pictures is its subsidiary.
The film is actually a small-scale "TV movie" in terms of technical means of shooting. This cost-saving shooting mode is still in large use today in large numbers of "six princesses".
"Demon Beast City" is a double male protagonist, led by Li Ming and Jacky Cheung. The female protagonist is Li Jiaxin, and the female supporting actress is Li Ruotong, who has only starred in one movie before.
The story takes place in the futuristic world, where Aaron (Dawn) and Jacky Cheung (Jacky Cheung) are SWAT officers who capture monsters.
However, the boss (Yuan Heping) is very serious about Ah Long, and he is wary of Ah Qiang.
Ah Qiang is drunk at the bar and is relieved by the support of his girlfriend (Li Ruotong).
However, there is always a shadow in his mind - it turns out that Ah Qiang's mother is also a demon beast, and later he tells Ah Long this secret. Aaron also confessed his relationship with the demon beast Fantasy Ji (Li Jiaxin).
Later, in an operation to capture Yuan Daizong (Zhongdai Daya), Aaron reunites with Fanji, who has now become yuan's wife, but in a hurry, he has to lead to many misunderstandings.
In fact, Yuan Dazong was a demon beast that wanted to cooperate with humans, but another stream of liquid demon beasts was raging on the city. In the process of fighting against the liquid demon beast, Ah Long's relationship with Fan Ji has been tested for life and death, but Yuan Dazong's son Ghost Zhongdao (Zhang Yaoyang) designs a divisive intention to destroy humans, and at the same time, Ah Qiang also discovers the traitors of the SWAT team...
This "Demon Beast City" may be subject to the cost and the original plot of dog blood, the filming is not good, and the box office barely exceeds ten million. Douban's 6.2 points are more for the actors themselves - Li Jiaxin, Li Ruotong and Dawn are all at the peak of their appearance, and even the dragon set actors who only show their faces for a few seconds at the beginning of the film use the Japanese popular photo and AV star Reiko Hayama.
A sentence from netizens on Douban can be said to be the most accurate summary of the actual value of this movie - every frame is a pictorial newspaper.
