Sacred prayers, large paragraphs of foul language, as if it were a ritualistic way of killing, are showing the audience that this is definitely not an ordinary action movie, and although the 1999 "Executioner" is not from the hands of a famous Hollywood director, it is still regarded as a classic by fans many years later. Although the thrilling fight scenes will make people watch the blood boiling, what attracts the audience more is some unique and wonderful parts of the movie.
The core theme of the story is to punish criminals and brothers join forces to replace Skywalker, which undoubtedly gives the protagonists a bright and just reason to pretend. We must not only kill, but also kill beautifully, kill art. This feature also makes it unique and different from films with similar themes.
ritualization. Hold the gun to the other person's head, then read a prayer without hesitation and shoot again, and finally put a coin in the eyes of the dead man. The whole process is like sending a loved one back into the arms of God, full of sincerity and sincerity. But for this clip, the first thing that pops into the audience's mind must be 1994's "Pulp Fiction", and this bridge section must also be a tribute to the classic.
In fact, this movie has many places to reflect Quentin's early film style, praying before killing people is not just to pretend, in the movie he is an oath, especially in the long series of words at the end, in God's eyes, sanctioning evil is not just a good way, and the same evil can also achieve the role of punishment, especially in this context when the law can no longer punish criminals, then let evil purify all this. The struggle between good and evil runs through the boundaries of good and evil in the film, which makes the theme of the story greatly sublimated, and is full of reflections on good and evil while ensuring the full portrayal of the characters, making the whole movie more intriguing.
The protagonist's act of forcing and killing people is understandable, but the most exciting thing about this movie is in the supporting role of William Duff. Not to mention the long hair of the wind, just by solving the case, he also brought his own Sony walkman to listen to the opera, and it is not outdated today after 16 years? So much so that today you can still see the major bosses and elites forcibly using opera to force the bridge, but also let the audience feel really ashamed of play.
And not only listening to the song to solve the case, for the setting of this elite policeman is still a gay, and sometimes some small actions also let the audience feel the various acting (sao) skills (qi) in front of the screen, although it is a supporting role, but the degree of excitement is no less than that of the brother protagonist, but because of the existence of this role, it also balances the handsome part of the protagonist, making the film more glorious.
This is a film that does not require a heroine, under the high-pressure of the heavenly path, with the "violent aesthetics" and the religious lynching to bring people sensory stimulation and cathartic pleasure, so that the ordinary audience in the usual repression of emotions to get catharsis, coupled with the ending does not have a very clear way to show the director's views on this way of punishing evil and promoting good, but through interviews to leave the problem to the audience. There is always darkness in this world that the light cannot illuminate, so does society need such a executioner to represent the heavenly path for us?
