Today's Hong Kong films have long been integrated into the tide of Chinese films, so many Hong Kong directors have gone north to make films, but most of them have failed due to unsatisfactory water and soil.
Of course, there are also successful directors, such as Lin Chaoxian, who broke the fire by relying on the main theme of the movie "Red Sea Action" and "Mekong Action", and Chen Kexin, who is already familiar with the mainland market and filmed "Dear", "Chinese Partner" and "Win the Championship", the best of which is of course Wang Jing.
In the early years, Wang Jing had realized that she must integrate herself into Chinese films, he said that "there are no Longer Hong Kong films, now they are all Chinese films", and put into action to explore how to better integrate her past filmmaking methods into the wave of modern development.
As a result, he has successively filmed the "Macau Storm" series and the "Chasing the Dragon" series, earning a lot of money, and even dabbling in network movies.
At present, Hong Kong films seem to have become a kind of memory, but there are still many works that are still sticking to it, and even trying to reawaken people's memories of "Hong Kong films".
This is not a perverse approach, but a new attempt to interpret Hong Kong films with the concept of modern people, including three film sequels that have been waiting for a long time.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="4" > "Chill 3", which is said to be in preparation, but most likely gone</h1>
2012's "Cold War 1", word of mouth 7.5 points, 2016's "Cold War 2", word of mouth 7.1 points, these two are the most outstanding Hong Kong films at the moment, of course, this is determined by two main factors.
One is the huge story line of the screenwriters, Leung Lok Man and Lu Jianqing, looking for a breakthrough from within the Hong Kong Police Force, causing suspicion and fighting among all parties, thus giving the film a dark style.
One is the showdown between Aaron Kwok and Leung Ka Fai, two movie emperors, of which Leung Ka Fai's performance is even better, because until you watch two movies, you can't accurately judge whether Li Wenbin, played by Leung Ka Fai, is a bad person?
The "Cold War" series focuses on power struggles, but the action scenes that are supported by explosions and the psychological tactics of various forces perfectly present the acne that exists in a rule of law society.
At the end of "Cold War 1", there is a suspense, whether Li Wenbin participated in the actions of his son Li Jiajun? And "Cold War 2" still leaves a suspense at the end, will Li Wenbin be blackened in the end?
Therefore, many people are looking forward to "Cold War 3", mainly to see the final direction of Li Wenbin, played by Leung Ka Fai, and more importantly, this series has always emphasized one thing, what is a rule of law society, and how to maintain a rule of law society?
Therefore, many of the metaphors in the details are worth repeatedly scrutinizing, because some words cannot be said explicitly, but can only be placed in the details, and these details are magnified, which is the series's expectations for Hong Kong's tomorrow.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="10" > "Equator 2", gone, only to know what is called gone</h1>
"Equator 1" is a film with great hopes, and even a film that is likely to surpass "Infernal Affairs", after all, the investment is as high as 200 million, bringing together Chinese actors including Zhang Zhen, Jacky Cheung, Zhang Jiahui, Wen Yongshan, Wang Xuexi and Yu Wenle, as well as Korean actors such as Ji Zhenxi, Choi Shiyuan and Yoon Jin-yi.
Unfortunately, its opening is really too big, from Hong Kong to the mainland to South Korea, almost all the characters have appeared, but it seems that each character has been brushed over, and has not given a full personality at all, and even, the relationship between various characters can not be fully explained.
As a result, the audience speculated about the plot in a confused water, until the end to understand that it turned out that this was just a super long trailer, the real highlight, the director actually wanted to arrange in "Equator 2".
It's just that you haven't even explained the story of the first part, how can you let the audience buy for your second part, just like this, "Equator 1" ended hastily in a lot of spit.
Equator 1 has dug too many pits, and the point is that you dig a pit that you don't want to fill at all. Jacky Cheung, the big boss, appeared at the end, and then, he said an inexplicable sentence - "From the beginning to the end, you only made one mistake - you should not hit a woman!" ", and that's it.
But why am I still looking forward to Equator 2, because I want to see how it cleans up the mess of Equator 1.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="21" > "Sweep 3", the possibility of release is very large</h1>
"Ah Wei is dead, you picked it, idol." Duan Kun I ate it, and Jesus couldn't keep him, I said! ”
I think many people should be familiar with this line, this is from the 2013 movie "Sweeping Drugs", when watching Gu Tianle, Liu Qingyun and Zhang Jiahui was very enjoyable.
After 6 years, it finally ushered in its sequel "Sweeping Drugs 2", when the main actors were replaced by Gu Tianle and Andy Lau, and the director was also changed from Chen Musheng to Qiu Litao.
To be honest, I like "Sweeping Poison 1" more than "Sweeping Poison 2", because the story of the former is watchable, and the grasp of human nature is also quite accurate, and the latter is mainly focused on duels, many things are directly presented to the audience, losing the mystery of the character shaping process.
However, "Sweep 1" and "Sweep 2" are completely different stories.
It is said that "Sweeping Drugs 3" has identified Aaron Kwok, Gu Tianle, Liu Qingyun, originally had Andy Lau,but because of the schedule problem can not participate, and affected by the epidemic, the shooting of many foreign scenes is also postponed, so the specific release time is not certain, but if the subject matter does not touch the sensitive, the probability of being able to be successfully released is still very large.
But "Sweeping Drugs 3" should not be called a sequel, just borrowed the name of the first two parts.
"Equator 2" and "Cold War 3" are estimated to have a sequel unlikely, and "Sweeping Drugs 3" has a great chance of being released, but I don't know how long I have to wait!
