Screenwriter: Yuancan Hong

Starring: Huang Zhengmin/Li Zhengzai/Park Jung min/Park Cho-yi/Cui Xixi.

Huang Zhengmin VS Li Zhengzai, see you in 7 years!

Hand-to-hand combat, tribute to Hong Kong films.

Typed commercialization, the future of Korean films.

The box office won 2.83 billion won on the first day of the release.

It was released for 5 days and the number of people watching the movie was as high as 2 million.

The highest number of people watching movies is nearly 730,000, with a lapse of 195 days, which is 65438+1the highest number of people watching movies in a single day since October 27th.

In August, the film "Save Me from Evil" became the absolute "savior" of the Korean film industry.

Are the two in the poster from the movie New World? Two brothers? Huang Zhengmin, Li Zhengzai.

Before, the transformation of inner drama was mainly focused on Li Zicheng played by Li Zhengzai.

Ten years undercover, in the face of repression from his brothers and superiors, Li Zicheng plotted to eradicate dissidents, quite a year ago? Pacino is as cool as a cucumber in The Godfather.

But this time, the focus of the inner change of the character is the killer played by Huang Zhengmin.

0 1

At the time of publicity, "Save Me from Evil" was defined as an R-rated film because there were too many bloody and violent scenes.

A man's "killing one inch" is one head and two big ones;

As a killer, he killed the eldest brother of the Japanese underworld and recruited the younger brother for revenge.

As a killer, he left his girlfriend to avoid trouble, and as a result, his illegitimate daughter was kidnapped by traffickers.

As a result, while avoiding gangsters, you have to be like Liam in Taken3? Nissen saved his daughter.

Fortunately, Huang Zhengmin seamlessly connected these two opposing personalities, showing the tough guy's iron and blood tenderness on the screen.

Because the department was banned by the top management, in order to survive, he left his beloved woman and became a bounty hunter.

His wish is to complete the final order and live a quiet life in Panama.

The depiction of Panama on the opposite wall also implies this title:

Kill an inch hopes to escape from the endless shura hell.

A middle-aged man trying to escape from the turmoil, a poster full of hope for the future.

It's easy to think of Brian? De? Palma's lover Dawn.

Al. After he was released from prison, the drug Lord played by pacino began to plan his future, hoping to earn enough money and take his beloved woman to Paradise Island to enjoy his old age.

As a result, once in the Jianghu, Paradise Island is an unrealistic dream after all.

How to really reach the inner comfort zone?

"Kill an inch" and choose to escape: escape from blood-stained hands and an unchangeable past.

Ironically, what was nice to you in those days was my girlfriend's cold bones.

Now, the sudden appearance of an illegitimate daughter makes him have to choose to let his dead girlfriend die.

When dealing with the psychological changes in the later period of Killing an Inch, Huang Zhengmin used a set of opposing micro-expressions to interpret the inner struggles of the characters.

Laugh and cry.

The first time I saw my daughter, I didn't know how to face the child's "killing an inch" and smiled for the first time.

This smile is not to close the distance, he never explained his true identity from beginning to end.

Laughter is to relieve children's nervousness.

"Kill an inch" decided to end.

In fact, this scene in the hotel is the farewell finale of "Kill an Inch of Heart", and he is ready for the strong man to never return.

The little girl used magic to quell her mother's death and gave her daughter a hug.

This kind of crying has two levels:

First of all, in the face of her daughter's hug, she was at a loss, hesitated and avoided.

Then, "Tu Xin Yi Village" picked up her daughter.

I only frown when I run for my life, but I love my daughter and feel guilty for my ex-girlfriend.

With mixed feelings, Huang Zhengmin picked up her daughter and began to cry, drawing a pause in the last song.

In the end, "kill the enemy one inch" and the enemy will perish together.

The lens gives a close-up of the sunset shining into the car.

Kill 10 thousand people, but put down the slaughter because of one person.

At that moment, "killing one inch" completed self-redemption.

Save me from evil is a two-person play.

From the topic? Evil? , is played by Li Zhengzai gangster "firm" contract.

In Li Zhengzai's villain image, Sister Tiao's favorite is the first Yang Dajun in The Compartment.

In the film, the physiognomist played by Song Kanghao called it wolf phase.

That kind of domineering, hidden under the face, is always revealed, which really makes people shudder.

But in Save Me from Fire and Water, Li Zhengzai still plays a seemingly elegant but cold person.

By hook or by crook for their own ends, "Thunder and Kill" hangs people like animals, and then slaughters them after bleeding.

Intercept and kill the enemy "kill the enemy one inch" and "thunder kills the enemy in all directions" and shoot directly.

Here, it is quite a tribute to the gangster Hong Kong films.

In a white suit, the scene of a man facing forward is inevitably reminiscent of the image of Chow Yun Fat in One Like You.

But in recent years, Hong Kong crime movies also like to imitate.

Especially heath? Ledger's clown, the inner drama of many characters is directly copied.

From Murder Chasing? Cracks? Wang, from Anti-Drug 2, went to Anti-Corruption Storm 4, and Lin Leimeng put on purple clothes directly.

This time, "lightning strikes everywhere" took the same route.

When the big brother of the underworld in Thailand asked him why he wanted to kill "Kill an inch of his heart", "Thunder Kill Four Sides" did not cry and told a story about his brother being killed.

On the contrary, the lines here are very cold:

I can't remember, the reason doesn't matter anymore. ?

Just for a moment of bloodthirsty pleasure, similar to the clown's psychology.

They just want the world to burn before their eyes.

However, Li Zhengzai's performance left a deep impression on people, bringing a person who should be radiant to life.

Therefore, "Thunder Kill Four Sides" still has its own charm.

In addition, there is a role in the film, which Sister Tiao thinks is particularly outstanding.

Is that the ballroom where Park Jung min plays? A shemale? .

This role actually appears in the form of gag, helping to "kill an inch" to find a daughter.

However, behind him, there is still a emotional line hidden.

He is a single father.

In order not to make his daughter feel strange, he tried to have sex-change surgery with the money he earned in the ballroom.

I plan to make a 100% mother for my daughter.

On the surface, Nuo Nuo is the only timid person.

But when it comes to things related to children, motherhood begins to spread, and driving with the enemy is just right.

The significance of this role is mainly to suggest that some transgender people need to put aside the prejudice of others.

The topic of LGBT is involved in Korean movies, which can also be recorded in the history of movies at the moment when the gender movement is on the rise.

Whether it is a lonely father, an orphan girl who has lost her mother, or a transgender group, it needs to be saved.

In addition to rich stories and plump characters.

The action play "Save Me from Evil" is both exciting and stylish.

At the beginning, the scene of "killing the Japanese mafia boss with an inch of heart" can be regarded as "this killer is not too cold"+Kitano Takeshi's shooting method.

Hiding in the corner and strangling the target with a wire rope is also Lyon's technique.

In the process of killing other younger brothers, the director adopted the shooting method of Kitano Takeshi.

Kitano Takeshi flapped his wings for fun and liked to shoot the beginning and end of the action. As for the killing process in the middle, it is completely omitted.

However, Kitano Takeshi's sense of absurdity, when saving me from evil, showed the superb professionalism of the "kill an inch" killer.

Black boss called his men first, and then, there was a scene of the younger brother's body lying dead everywhere.

This is just a relatively static picture presentation.

In the confrontation, they imitated the street fighting in Hong Kong movies.

Suddenly, grenades and machine guns were overwhelmed.

One word is cool!

But it's not a disorderly fight without head or tail.

Let's watch this indoor fighting scene with a sense of design.

The first battle between "the heart kills an inch" and "the thunder kills all sides"

Close-ups of over-the-shoulder guns and knives are the main features in combat, and characters accumulate emotions in slow motion.

After seeing the big picture from a small place, the camera began to show two people fighting at close range.

This farewell deepened the sense of urgency in the war.

Look at the screenshot, maybe you can feel the intention of this film in creating light and shadow.

Not bad! The photography director of this film is Hiroichi who shoots parasites.

Save me from Evil involves Japan, South Korea and Thailand.

The main location is Thailand, which is dominated by yellow, with green and shadows to set off the dynamic atmosphere.

Hinting to the audience that the next plot is likely to cause psychological anxiety.

In Japan, cool colors such as cyan are matched with shadows to create a cold feeling.

Some viewers feel that "Save Me from Evil" has reshaped the benchmark of Korean crime movies.

In fact, according to the development of Korean commercial films, what? Remodeling? A little too much.

It is still a stable crime film.

However, Sister Zhang still has some personal opinions.

Mainly the director of this film, Yuancan Hong.

I used to be a screenwriter, and I worked with director Hong-jin Na on such excellent works as The Yellow Sea and The Chaser.

Hong-jin Na's films are very good at rhythm control, thanks to the screenwriter Yuancan Hong.

In The Chaser, the murderer is about to be caught. Whether it's street chasing or grocery store asking for help, the screenwriter gasps at 180 degrees, hangs the audience's hopes on the Twin Towers, and then falls heavily.

This is also the reason why Save Me from Evil can be highly praised.

Every rescue, obstacle setting and warm drama are full of rhythm.

Next, we will talk about the watershed between Yuancan Hong and Hong-jin Na.

In the control of artistic language, the atmosphere of the Yellow Sea has been created, and the image of marginal groups in Yanbian area is impressive.

Through "crying", the whole movie became a confusing post-modern religious fable.

This can reflect the director's exquisite and superb control ability.

Interestingly, the cooperation between Yuancan Hong and Hong-jin Na is just a commercial film.

In the story of literature and art, Yuancan Hong really missed the point.

All the details are direct, and I don't know how to twist them.

For the expectation, Zhang Jie took him a little.

I still hope that his future works can be typed less.

Same old story:

Korean commercial films, starting from "parasites", are bound to usher in the situation of Japan and China.

Korean commercial films have always been outstanding in genre.

Previous pure love films and family ethics films have been brilliant.

Nowadays, political thrillers, human feelings films and rich and poor films have become the new three pillars of Korean genre films.

"Parasites" bring the rich and the poor to the peak in a closed environment, but then they will inevitably return to a weak state.

Korean films have always performed well in this sensational human nature film, but they can also see a downward trend.

After the furnace and Su Yuan, Birthday and Small Client are also trying to rebuild their glory.

Unfortunately, the audience has become accustomed to this, shed a few tears and talk about social problems, that's all.

As for political thrillers, Han Ying has been in the limelight in recent years.

Last year's "Minister of Nanshan" was natural in both production and historical restoration.

It's a pity that a movie "Iron Rain 2" mixed funny banter and made it look like nothing happened.

Personally, I think movies are artistic words in the final analysis.

The landing of all kinds of life needs to show its original life atmosphere under the packaging of art.

That's why I always admire Li Cangdong and Hong-jin Na.

They use light and shadow to tell stories and express a core similar to fable.

After all, film art and life reality are separated by a layer.

If we don't develop or let more audiences begin to understand and be familiar with the number of literary films, there will be a big gap in Han Ying.

Save me from evil is a well-behaved crime commercial film.

The story has meticulous clues, compact rhythm and good quality.

But because it is too detailed, it is partial to the type of routine, and it is not very brilliant.

Can only say: "Save me from evil" is good, but it can be better!
