Zhao Xing was a little stunned.
As a fan of old Hong Kong movies, he felt subverted by this movie.
It can be said that it is completely different from the Hong Kong police and gangster movies of the past.
There really aren't any big scenes, and the gunfight scene can be said to be weak.
But it is so attractive. What is strange is that the plot is simply a story about catching an undercover agent and a traitor. The story of catching an undercover agent is very ups and downs, and it is also full of moral dilemmas. The plot is layered with contradictions, and in the end it is even contradictory. If there is no solution, we can only use Buddhist thinking to find the answer.
Enjoyable and beautiful! The key is, when Zhao Xing thought about it, he felt that some parts seemed not to be fully understood. It was not that the plot was not clear, but that there were blank spaces. He felt that the director had left many blank spaces, the kind that you would feel when watching it for the first time. That's the meaning, but when I think about it carefully, I feel that there may be another deeper meaning.
The movie is over.
There was silence at the premiere, and then someone stood up and applauded.
Then the applause resounded!
In particular, many veteran filmmakers from Hong Kong applauded vigorously.
Li Yi did it.
If Hong Kong Island police and gangster movies are all of this level, no, even if they are half of this level, the revival of Hong Kong Island police and gangster movies will be out of the question!
And "Infernal Affairs" indeed opened a new door, the door of police movies.
"Infernal Affairs" explains why Hong Kong police and gangster films are different from mainland police and gangster films, and explains why the revival of Hong Kong films lies in police and gangster films!
In fact, Hong Kong movies were once like the old classic Hollywood model, like an assembly line with only fixed models and no innovation!
At the end of the glorious period of Hong Kong films, a large number of Hong Kong films were low-end products that were purely for people to kill time. However, "Infernal Affairs" broke this existing fixed model and used a process that was different from assembly line operations. The rough Hong Kong film style began to focus on the details that were abandoned by Hong Kong films.
A classic work often has many shots and details that can make people remember it endlessly.
"Infernal Affairs" is undoubtedly such a work!
The applause lasted for more than ten minutes.
Li Yi led the creative team to take three curtain calls before everyone stopped!
This was not a polite applause. Many people were excited, especially those veteran filmmakers from Hong Kong.
It seems that I have seen the hope of Hong Kong films from this movie, no, not as if, but I have already seen it.
It turns out that police movies can still be made like this!
And many fans of old Hong Kong films are also very excited at this moment.
It's been too long, too long since I've seen such a flavorful Hong Kong movie. The key is that this movie is obviously full of the flavor of Hong Kong movies, but it is different from any Hong Kong movie they have seen in the past.
"Director Dog, you're awesome!" I don't know who shouted.
Then the whole audience: "Director Dog, awesome!"
This probably only happens at Li Yi's movie premiere.
Li Yi is very calm, because this is not the first time anyway, so just get used to it!
The movie "Infernal Affairs" has attracted too many people's attention.
It's a pity that there has never been a screening of this movie before, so countless fans are waiting, waiting for the premiere to end, and waiting for the comments of those who have watched the movie.
"I wonder how the quality is?"
"Judging from the trailer, the movie is definitely not bad, but I don't know if it can truly break through the barriers of Hong Kong police and gangster movies!"
"It is said that mobile phones are not allowed to be taken out during the premiere of the movie. This is to prevent the source of the film from leaking, so we will definitely have to wait until the end of the movie to know the specific evaluation of the movie..."
"The premiere seems to be over?"
"What about the evaluation?"
In fact, netizens also know that there were not many people attending the premiere. Although a few thousand people seemed to be quite a lot, a large number of them were celebrity guests, film directors and the like. Even if they gave comments, they would not be able to do so. morning!
In fact, what they are waiting for are mainly short reviews from movie fans.
As for the long reviews from film critics, we have to wait.
Finally, someone posted the first short comment.
"Although the undercover agent is told at the beginning of the film, the story still has twists and turns. For the first time, I discovered that the showdown in a police movie is not necessarily a big scene gun battle, nor is it necessarily a fist-fighting action. This movie focuses on With its delicate psychological description, I would like to call it a classic."
As a result, there were a lot of comments under such a short comment.
"You commented on loneliness! Then what?"
"I've been waiting for a long time to get this? A classic, and then what? Can't I write more?"
"I just lost my tickets to the premiere, so why can't you vomit a little more? I'm so anxious!"
Soon, there were more short reviews in the film review area.
"As expected of a dog director, the brilliance of "Infernal Affairs" lies in the twins of darkness and light. One has never sunk, but has no identity; the other, even though he yearns for the sun, has already stepped into the darkness. Even if he wants to pull out his feet, he will eventually Bring it out of the mud. All actions must leave traces. All life is involuntarily. A fleeting moment passes by. Looking back, there is no end in sight. Those who accept the body will never die. Long life is the great calamity in the endless hell."
Then there was another bunch of complaints:
"What the hell, he's such a talkative guy!"
"I saw Loneliness again!"
"Short comment, short comment, you're not short, but what did you say?"
In fact, the main reason why fans have been waiting for too long is because they really hope someone can reveal some spoilers.
Especially those who have watched the trailer clearly seem to know what the story of the movie is about, but they seem to know nothing. This is the most depressing thing.
Might as well not watch the trailer!
"When the fake is true, it is also true, and when the true is false, the false is also true! They are mutually infiltrated and make each other difficult to perfect! Whether it is the acting skills of the actors or the plot of the film, it is very enjoyable to watch! Director Dog does what he says, I would like to call it The pinnacle of Hong Kong police dramas!”
"The creativity is great, the plot is very good, and it makes people feel the intertwining of good and evil. I really like this kind of police film, the plot is exciting, there are many meticulous details worthy of consideration, it is an intense and thrilling undercover story. Maybe Director Dog is right , really only Hong Kong Island filmmakers can produce such a police and gangster classic full of Hong Kong Island characteristics!"
"A very exciting and amazing police film. Before watching it, I was still worried about Director Gou, fearing that he would make the police film very sensational and not capture the essence of the film. But the result proved that I was wrong! This is definitely my favorite film to watch. The best one among all the Hong Kong police and gangster movies ever made! Director Dog is awesome!”
"There is me among the enemies, there is the enemy among me, the real and fake undercover life, I feel that the actors in this film have shown their peak acting skills. Director Dog, awesome!"
"I would like to call it a landmark work of Hong Kong films in the new era! Director Dog may really be able to use this to revive police and gangster films in Hong Kong!"
Fans who attended the premiere were extremely enthusiastic. After attending the premiere and watching the movie, they immediately came to the Internet to express their opinions on the movie.
