Speaking of Curator Kim, we must talk about his Romantic Assassin!
The film is adapted from the bizarre story of the interference of Chinese troops in Korea in the internal affairs of Korea in 1636 AD, and performs a light-hearted romantic comedy that surprises and delights.
Lo and behold, how cute, how playful,,, I want to give him a stick, hahaha.
The story tells that poi, who is bent on living a good life, thinks that joining the "Romantic Assassin Regiment" as an assassin can make a lot of money, who knows that this group of rabble-rousers are all amateur assassins, do not understand kung fu tactics, and have only one brave word in their hearts; this group of killers finally received a big business, but unfortunately did not perform the mission, and got lost in the forest on the way. There is a haunted house in the jungle, inhabited by a group of female ghosts who have been wrongfully killed, who plan to use this group of killers to carry out their long-awaited revenge plan.
In fact, you can completely ignore my above content introduction, because I can tell you that this dry and stylized story content that I have summarized really cannot show the brilliance of this "nonsense" movie. The director of this film, Yin Jijun, is probably not very familiar with you, but if I say that his last work is "Color is Empty", then I think you should understand a little. To put it more strictly, there are not many shots in this film, most of them are point to the end, and most of the content is funny.
Crazy nonsense funny. And those jokes, I really can't use words to describe to you, because using words will definitely lose a large part. In fact, a large part of the success of this film is due to two outstanding actors, especially Cui Chengguo, whose rubber-made face can easily navigate between seriousness and funny, so that you can't imagine what else he can't do. As for the other lead actor, Kim Min-jong, he is dumbfounded, and the cooperation between the two is perfect.
At the same time, several actresses in the film are also very beautiful, although they are not exposed much, but it is precisely in this way that they can mobilize everyone's curiosity. The only unacceptable thing is that the main villain of this film is actually Chinese, although it is only a fabricated story, but it is still a little difficult to accept the final ending of the movie is that the Koryo stick defeats the Chinese samurai.
South Korean female ghosts are really extremely sexy and strong in force, Chinese female ghosts will only shout here, shout, spooky sudden appearance, personally like these female ghosts, is the characteristic of this play. You can't look at this Korean movie from the perspective of a Chinese movie. As the sequel of Yin Jijun, the director of "Color is Empty", the performance of the film is actually decent, and it feels like it is not lost to the previous work. After all, as a commercial comedy film, it is impossible to put too high requirements on the connotation, this kind of film emphasizes a kind of mood release, a relaxed pleasure.
The performances of several of the main characters in the film are also passed, especially the "big guy" is really a good piece of comedy material, more than the sperm man in the "Color" film. Different from "Color is Empty" playing love and sex jokes, although "Romantic Assassin" also has fragrant elements, but there is basically no nude scene, the love component is relatively light, in addition to this neurotic rubber face between Cui Chengguo and the female ghost, the male protagonist focuses on the development of the family drama of the little people.
