On the morning of Qingming Festival in 2016, my eyes were stared at by a bad movie for 99 minutes.
This film is called "My Grandpa the Agent".
To be honest, I have wanted to watch the movie "My Grandpa" for a long time.
On the one hand, it’s because the martial arts movements directed by Yuen Woo-Ping in “Ip Man 3” were so erratic that it made my balls hurt, which also made me miss Sammo Hung’s martial arts design. On the other hand, the first trailer of this film is very exciting. The scenes in the soundtrack are combined with various acrobatic skills to fight, which makes it feel like an old martial arts movie.
So I got up early today and finished watching this movie before going to work...
I believe everyone can guess the story behind this movie. This "emotional action blockbuster" was rated 7.2 on Douban. The literary and martial arts scenes are awkward and the martial arts scenes are perfunctory. My mood after watching the whole movie was roughly like this:
This must be a fucking movie that God has given me. Just kidding...
Okay, enough of the complaining, let's talk about this movie in detail.
The plot of this film is about a retired old guard who lost his granddaughter due to Alzheimer's disease and formed an unfounded relationship with the little girl next door. After a little girl goes missing, the little girl's gangster father is killed by gangsters, and the old man smuggles out the local gangsters + Russian mafia in a confused way. In the end, it is discovered that the little girl just went to a classmate's house to play, such an oolong story...< /p>
The character setting of the film is very similar to "This Killer Is Not Too Cold", with a stupid uncle (uncle) who possesses special skills + a little girl whose family was wiped out by the gangsters. In addition to adding a completely redundant Russian gangster to the plot Other than that, it is basically the same as the 2010 Korean movie "Uncle": a former special forces soldier + a little lolita who was exterminated by the gangsters. Basically, it has everything except that Uncle Hong didn't shave his head in front of the mirror... Oh, by the way, shave his head. The plot was already imitated by Mr. Feng Xiaogang in "Old Paoer" last year.
Of course, since we have not seen any admission during the promotion process of this film that it borrowed the structure of "This Killer Isn't Too Cold" or copied most of the plot of "Uncle", then we can't It is clear that this film was copied by our Uncle Hong. Who hasn’t learned from it? After all, no one has applied for patents on things like the middle-aged and elderly crisis, gang fights, old men matching little girls, etc.
But I am a little dissatisfied! Can't it be changed to a little boy? Our little boys are human beings too, and they also need care and love! Look at Jet Li and Xie Miao's "The Five New Shaolin Ancestors" and "Letter to Dad", aren't they both quite cute?
In terms of performance, the film gave a variety of facial close-ups to Sammo Hung, who stars as the director + and Liu Tianwang, who is the producer. However, these two paralyzed faces almost ruined the film. All the acting skills...
Liu Tianwang has already written a lot of bad movies and has played the handsome guy for so many years. This time, Liu Tianwang, the frustrated gangster father, can't find the rhythm at all. Things also want to look cool, they want to look cool when running around, they want to look cool when being beaten, and even when they die, they want to look cool in various shapes... This is a typical example of not letting go of idol baggage and ruining the performance, so Liu The main premise for all of Tianwang's outstanding acting roles is that he is handsome, but he would not be used to it if he had the face of an ordinary person.
