The fifth "Scorching Sun"
I like the beginning of the storytelling, which adds a lot of legend. I originally wanted to score five stars, because I actually said almost exactly the same thing to Lao Duan before, purely based on my own feelings. I really like that paragraph, because I saw the protagonist in a movie with almost the same emotion as myself. But the ending is a little unreasonable, I think the contrast between good and evil is too abrupt and unreasonable. In fact, it is enough to live as a normal person for decades, and even risk their lives to carry out official duties to arrest criminals. It's okay to simply raise a child, but in the end, I still think that the motivation is too fake, and it seems that the movie is very boring. All in all, it's still wonderful, give it four stars. I like this kind of subject matter very much, and it's fascinating.
The fourth "Dark Flower"
It should be the movie I want to watch but haven't watched for the longest time, I heard it when I was a sophomore in high school, and I didn't watch it until the National Day in 2023. The young Liu Qingyun and Tony Leung, although they are named by You Dazhi, but the strong fatalism reveals a feeling of To Qifeng, and the metaphor for the mainland is also seen again in the underworld more than ten years later. The story of the movie is so well written that it is impossible to ignore the immature soundtrack editing, and people can't get rid of their own destiny, just like Mr. Hong behind the two chess pieces. And such a movie that allows panic to spread will never be seen again today, and no one dares to say it. Although I was in a bad mood after watching it, I respected it. And it's been a long time since I've seen a young and gloomy Tony Leung, and I miss him.
Part 3 "Searching for God"
In 2008, one of Johnny To's pinnacles, I thought. It's not quite the same as gunfire, it's more exciting. And this film always reminds me of the "Genius on the Left, Crazy on the Right" I watched recently, which describes the mentally ill, although there is no comparison and similarity between them. In addition, Liu Qingyun is really good at acting, this kind of inner drama is very suitable for him, such a theme that requires us to ponder, the protagonist is actually played by him a little innocently, especially when he is walking on the street, his ghost is actually his love. In short, although it still retains many inherent traces of the Galactic Image and the Du Clan, it has jumped out again, and it is not the same as before. To Qifeng seems to have opened a window to look out of a new world.
The second "Blood Guanyin"
This movie really amazed me, and it deserves to be a Golden Horse Award film. After watching the movie, it was very depressing, very dark, very realistic, and very helpless. The delicate and profound character portrayal, the seemingly smooth and uncoordinated plot is actually surging undercurrent, echoing before and after, admiring and admiring, every detail in the movie has a meaning, it is a foreshadowing and omen, the most expressive is the "apple" that appears many times in the movie and the "candy" stuffed in everyone's mouth when the Lin family is destroyed, Apple creates human beings, beauty and evil always go hand in hand, irreversible, non-perishable, can only be transformed, there is a future with love. What's even more rare is that the whole movie tiles all kinds of human darkness and ugliness, which is enough to resonate and recognize. In short, there is no one of the best movies I have seen in 2019.
The first "Heart Labyrinth"
This is the director's best film at present, although it is a small cost, but it is exceptionally exquisite and complete, giving people surprises! The film belongs to a rural small-budget suspense movie, interspersed flashbacks to create suspense, explain suspense, logical self-consistency, self-justifying, basically no bugs, Huang Huan's fake pregnancy makes Yaozong pay attention, the village flower wants to get rid of the domestic violence man, the pregnant woman wants to let the cheating village flower's husband go home, Da Zhuang wants to chase the village flower, the nameless corpse White Tiger is borrowed by his brother to pretend to be the white tiger to collect debts, etc. What's more interesting is that the whole film also corresponds well to the title of the movie, the sinister and tangled nature of human nature, the complex mind and the small proportion of goodness are vividly reflected. In short, the overall look and feel is not bad, and it is worth giving praise.
