In the field of crime films, Korean films have always been a unique existence, not only the theme is novel and bold, but also the actors can release themselves in performance.
Therefore, when the audience watches the film, it is more like watching the real story that happens in society, such as the film "Angry Scalper", and every audience who has seen the film is deeply affected.
The film is also known as the Korean version of Hurricane Rescue, but I don't know who can be better than the two uncles, Ma Dongxi and Liam Neeson.
In fact, after watching similar works, it is not difficult to find the necessity of film ratings.
After watching a crime film, especially with a lot of violent scenes in the film, it is difficult for us to calm our minds. But "Angry Scalper" is different, this film is not simply to provoke the audience and put a lot of violent scenes.
The story told in "Angry Scalper" is actually not complicated, a former underworld big brother chose to sell fish from Lianghou.
However, even selling fish did not escape his former life. After a shipment was seized by customs, Dongzhe's capital chain was broken, and he could not get enough in return to repay the money he borrowed.
After the unsuccessful demands, the underworld went so far as to kidnap Dong Zhe's wife. This is undoubtedly a shame for Dong Zhe, as a former member of the underworld, he is now threatened by debt collectors.
So Dong Zhe decided to rescue his wife, but this action was not easy, fortunately Dong Zhe had a strong enough body.
The final ending of the film is of course a reunion, but for the audience who like this film, the film always seems to be missing something.
For many viewers, we don't seem to be really cool, but if you look at this film carefully in turn, in fact, Dong Zhe, played by Ma Dongxi, has contributed enough action scenes.
It is no exaggeration to say that in today's Korean action film field, Ma Dong-seok must be a premier actor, who not only has a body with enough strength, but also can conquer the audience with iron man tenderness.
The same is true in the film "Angry Scalper", when facing the murderer in the end, Dong Zhe only broke one of the opponent's hands, rather than unloading the villain in eight pieces like other works.
Of course, from the perspective of the film effect, Dongzhe's final treatment is obviously not exciting enough, for the audience, it is natural to unload the villain eight pieces to be enjoyable.
However, it is precisely because of Dong Zhe's kindness that this film is different from other works, and Dong Zhe is not a murderous man.
In the face of the possible humiliation of his wife, he still gave up his own personal revenge, but handed over the enemy to the judicial organs, which is not the highlight of this film.
Therefore, "Angry Scalper" is obviously different from what the audience imagined, and this "scalper" was not carried away by anger, but chose a more secure way to solve the problem.
After all, for Dong Zhe, he still needs to continue to live an ordinary life with his wife, and there is no need to get involved in trouble again, which may also be what the director wants to tell the audience.
Therefore, on the whole, "Angry Scalper" has both a violent revenge bridge section that the audience likes to hear, and a valuable compassion bridge section.
The audience is not kidnapped by emotions, but to remain sane when they are about to be overwhelmed by Dong-cheol's anger, maybe you will think that this is not cool enough, but I think only such a work can be regarded as a qualified action movie, do you think?
