In recent years, many so-called Hong Kong stars have transformed into big people.
For example, Chen Haomin, Fan Shaohuang, etc., basically consumed the audience, these actors never consider the quality of the film, as long as they come to the door on the Internet, they dare to take the film, resulting in Chen Haomin becoming the king of bad films.
But Zeng Zhiwei's big shooting network still shocked many Hong Kong film fans.
Zeng Zhiwei is undoubtedly one of the bigwigs of Hong Kong films, the veteran of the founding of New Art City, and the "Best Partner" series created by Zeng Zhiwei has repeatedly broken box office records, and he has beaten the heads of Hong Kong film giants to sweat, and then left New Art City and Sammo Hung to shoot the "Five Lucky Stars" series, which is a symbol of the collapse of New Art City.
starred in "Infernal Affairs", "Sweet Honey", "Golden Branches and Jade Leaves" and so on are the supreme classics of Hong Kong films.
It's a pity that Zeng Zhiwei has not had a good work in recent years, and the theatrical film is to shoot one and lose one, and now he directly goes to the shooting network, which is really embarrassing!
Rotten! "Storm in the City" premiere one-star bad reviews brushed the screen, the special effects are rough, the plot has no logic!
On April 16, the "Storm in the City" network premiere starring Zeng Zhiwei, this movie was filmed in 2020, which belongs to a warehouse film that has been hidden for a long time, but even if you return to the vision of 3 years ago, "Storm in the City" is unqualified in terms of special effects and plot.
The plot of the movie is actually very simple.
Zeng Zhiwei plays retired firefighter Zhang Yingyong, a well-known hero in the city who has saved many people. But Zhang Yingyong has always had a knot that is, he did not save his wife many years ago, this role is played by Xiong Dailin, and there is not even a name, and the cast list says Zhang Yingyong's wife.
It's really a bit perfunctory, but the film often expresses Zhang Yingyong and his two children's longing for his wife. This makes the plot full of a sense of contradiction.
Let's make up a name for this character.
Zeng Zhiwei is 70 years old this year, Xiong Dailin is 42 years old this year, the couple played by the two is really head-headed, at first I thought Xiong Dailin was playing Zeng Zhiwei's daughter, let's not talk about this, anyway, this movie is to express that Zhang Yingyong is a good man with feelings and righteousness, but did the director forget that Zhang Yingyong also married a wife Aunt Hong after that.
When the catastrophe occurred in the film, Zhang Yingyong never thought of his current wife and was dedicated to saving his son and daughter.
Such people say that there are feelings and righteousness, which is really a double standard.
The story of the movie is actually about Zhang's son, who works for a climate experiment company, and they specialize in the conversion of harsh weather into energy, but due to the major mistake of the boss's hurry, the whole city begins to rotate climate disasters, first tsunamis, tornadoes, later thunderstorms, hail, and even major earthquakes.
Under this disaster, Zhang Yingyong and his daughter finally untied their hearts, terminated the experiment with their son, and the city was saved.
The first problem with movies is special effects.
This kind of disaster film, if the special effects are not done well, the audience does not have the slightest sense of substitution, the special effects of "Storm in the City" are really a little poor, especially when thunderstorms, it is like a small lightning that is painted without a little feeling, and the movie likes big scenes. Zeng Zhiwei took his daughter to the bridge to race, the car drove in front, the bridge collapsed behind, and everything was just right.
The protagonist's aura is full!
The second problem is the plot. Not long after the opening of the movie, it was the scene of Zhang heroically saving the little girl.
The setting in the film was a tornado at that time, the guy's carriage could be blown and run, the little girl was not moving in the wind, and then Zhang Yingyong saved the little girl, the tornado blew the carriage and ran, Zhang Yingyong ran and ran, and the tornado chased and chased with the carriage. The audience was anxious on the barrage: Is it illegal to run to both sides?
At the end of the film, Zhang heroically fights with the bad guys, and the bad guys fall off the tall building first.
Zhang Yingyong was held by his son and daughter, and I came to a head-to-end echo because of the director, asking my son and daughter to save Zhang Yingyong, and at the same time untying the knot that Zhang Yingyong did not save his wife, but I didn't expect Zhang Yingyong to break free by himself.
My mother, two adults can't hold an old man, I won't say it.
Zhang Yingyong What kind of mentality is this, he didn't save his wife guilty for half his life, and now let his son and daughter feel guilty? Can a truly good father do this?
Such a shoddy Internet audience naturally did not give any good face, the movie is really a bad review, one star bad review brushed the screen!
Stop Zeng Zhiwei, 70-year-old transformation to make a big bad film on the Internet, and the late festival is not guaranteed!
The biggest problem for Hong Kong actors is that they don't know how to stop, many mainland performance artists and so on are older, basically will not star in movies, support the death occasionally make a cameo, and Hong Kong actors really shoot to the old.
And there are not many scripts suitable for elderly actors, so there are many bad films at the same time.
For example, Jackie Chan in recent years, "Pioneer", "Detective Pu Songling", "Machine Blood" and other bad films, from the king of kung fu to the current audience detour!
Zeng Zhiwei is the same, "Anti-Black Action" Douban 3.7 points.
"Emergency Rescue" has a double hit on the street at the box office, "Sunshine Robbers" is also 3.7 points, "There Is Always Love in Isolation" is 4.4 points, "Absolute Loyalty to the National Interest" Douban is only 4 points, "Fox Trace" is only 3.1 points, and Zeng Zhiwei has made 6 bad films in just two or three years.
Now that the 70-year-old has transformed into a big pat net, I am afraid that it will really be late.
