Film evaluation of drug war

It spoke highly of the war on drugs. The War on Drugs has brought a new drug theme in the film history of China. The lively rhythm, repeated suspense, fierce gunfight and absurd humanity make the film rich in content and thought-provoking. I believe the audience will like this amazing action movie, which is undoubtedly another classic of the image of the Galaxy created by Du Qifeng and his old partner Wei Jiahui. "

35mit, an Italian film website, believes that "the plot of depression, darkness, interweaving of good and evil and suspense is woven into a fine net under the control of the director. Du Qifeng's first police film in Chinese mainland vividly tells a complex human story. "

The American entertainment media "Hollywood Report" said that "Drug War" subverted the routine of traditional police films with fascinating stories. The excellent stunts and photography of the film give the fierce gunfight an unexpected sense of reality. Unlike Death Money, which focuses on the social situation, Drug War is more bloody and cruel, and it is also more optimistic about the box office prospects of this film. "

Variety, an American film magazine, said, "In War on Drugs, Du Qifeng, a Hong Kong action movie master, brought his unique image style to Chinese mainland. Just looking at this theme is exciting enough. Excellent script and photography make "Drug War" a masterpiece that people don't want to leave their seats. Du Qifeng continued his calm and objective lens language, especially in the final gun battle of the film, which restrained the excessive sensation caused by the overwhelming evil drama and made the film more real and shocking in chaos and rudeness. " Police gangster films with different themes

"The War on Drugs" has created a captain Zhang Lei who is different from the previous film and television themes. This is a ruthless character, not romantic, and has a wolf-like keen sense of smell for drug dealers. In order to track down drugs, catch drug dealers and overturn drug dens, he studied the methods of drug dealers transporting drugs and went to the front line of drug control. At the beginning of the film, with a keen sense of smell and a sixth sense, it was judged that Timmy Choi, a drug dealer played by Louis Koo, was suspected of making drugs.

Letting the positive characters win in the end is a common form of expression in the main theme movies. However, all the policemen who appeared in the film died heroically, including Zhang Lei, David Beckham played by Crystal and Chen Zhixiong played by Li Guangjie. It cruelly shows the price to be paid in the process of drug control.

The most impressive thing about Drug War is the "heavy taste" picture from beginning to end. From the beginning of the film, human beings have drugs in their intestines, and Louis Koo, who was seriously injured in a car accident, plays a drug Lord. After the explosion of his drug-making factory, his wife and brother-in-law were all bloody, and there were many bloody scenes at the beginning. Netizen "liar" said, "With the realistic style of" Drug War ",the dark side and instinct of human nature are presented naked on the big screen." Netizen "Drunk Adan" said, "The tense rhythm, fierce gun battles, chaotic alleys and psychological confrontation between good and evil in the play are very detailed and realistic."

The characters are too flat.

This movie is too much like a legal program, which makes the characters look very flat and thin. Although Zhang Lei in the film is not a common facebook policeman image in the main theme film, he plays an impressive role as a drug dealer's connector in the whole process of chasing drug dealers, but his inner emotional world has not been portrayed and displayed. Timmy Choi, the drug dealer, is the most complicated character in the film, but it is just sinister and vicious, and there is nothing new.

The gunmen in Du Qifeng's previous gangster films "Gunfire" and "Exile" always have some brotherhood and some helplessness, which makes people quietly move. The style of Death Gold is also very cold, but the corner of the three-legged leopard in the film still makes people see brotherhood. However, in "Drug War", the unique Jianghu atmosphere of this Hong Kong film completely disappeared, and the characters also lacked something worth remembering. Both villains and villains have a stiff face, leaving only a cold and empty appearance.
