Film Name:无间行者之生死潜行 / The Infernal Walker
This movie is an undercover police drama as you can tell from the name alone. Most of the actors in the movie are familiar faces. Apart from the main actors Tse Tin Wah and Pak Ho Chow, there are also TVB’s ageless god Lui Leung Wai, Kam Ting Ting who once played Pan Kam Lian and so on joining in, which makes the whole movie have a plot and face value.
The whole movie is only 1 hour and a half long, which for this kind of undercover and with the suspense of the movie time is a little bit not quite enough, but the director used a very simple and very clever pinch the end of the method to solve the problem, but the only shortcoming is that the whole plot seems to be very compact, and even more disappointing is that actually from the beginning of the undercover agent is known, which is really a big failure.1, undercover agent exposed too early : the beginning of the plot a group of Fu and gangsters together to eat hot pot, big banana caught a three years in his side of the undercover van boy, but also designated Nail to question the undercover agent. I don’t have to guess, I already know that Nail is an undercover agent, from Nail’s eyes to look at van boy’s eyes, as well as the back of the car intentionally pushed van boy out of the car can be seen. Generally this kind of drama has a routine is as long as the first object of suspicion are undercover agents. If you don’t believe me, you can go and watch other dramas to know.
2、Two undercover agents: There are two undercover agents in the drama, one of them is Ting and the other is Duan Yifan. One of them is Ding, and the other is Duan Yifan. One of them is in the gang, and the other is in the police station, so the plot will not be so simple. The character of Duan Yifan is still quite suspenseful, since he met the other half of his life, he chose justice between justice and crime, which is the only point of view in the drama.
3, the fight scene is too little: as a police movie, although the gun battle also has, the fight also has, but see really not enjoyable, in addition to the drama of the sports car is quite a lot of collision between the vehicles. Here winter boy want to spit under the car is a time bomb, people in the car when not exploded, it is not easy to escape, not yet walked two steps on the explosion, people are still fine, it is really pull. Here I also want to spit a little, the fight screen camera shaking too big, see dizzy.
4, crying drama is too fake: because Gu Yifan for his wife chose justice, was found by his employer arranged killers killed his wife, but also framed Nail, mistakenly thought it was Nail killed, Nail then also by the gang is undercover before deliberately whole him. Here I want to say that you are crying tears are not, the director is also to make up for your tears, the back and give some memories of the plot.
5, Huanxi brother crosstalk: Huanxi brother appeared really let me surprise, although only appeared a few shots, always let me think of the Acts of the Apostles in that Chen Huanxi. However, this play he changed his name to Chan Yuk Hei, a change of soup but not a change of medicine, he is still the boss of the gangsters, always that kind of smile, give a person a very sinister and cunning look.
6, the end too soon: Nail found the murderer who killed Duan Yifan’s wife, Duan Yifan knew that his wife was killed by his benefactor Song Zhengguang (also the one who arranged for him to go to the police station as an undercover agent), so he went straight to find him to take revenge, and after a few fights, he was kicked to the river, Duan Yifan, the police officer, does not know how to even do basic fighting? Still being held down in the water by Song Zhengguang. Finally, a gunshot rang out and the two men fell to the ground. Later, the credits directly tell everyone that the gangsters were sentenced to jail and that was the end of the movie. This is the middle of how big a plot ah save, Ah Nail directly behind the exposure of their identity of undercover agents? How did the gangsters get caught so easily? I can only say that this kind of drama is really not convincing.
All in all, I think this movie is noteworthy, basically rely on TVB Hong Kong drama in the gold star to support, otherwise it really is a bad movie that no one watch.
