What a bull shet
25 August 2022
Instead of saying this is a detective story, it would rather be described as a creepy nonsense and full of shet talk.

The story writer focus too much on shaping a physical mad detective but completely ignore the basic reality of crime fiction presentations. For example, you would ask me to believe an female police officer would perform her job in crime scene where she have to chase, gun fight and building climbing when she is nearly at a stage of a childbirth? And you expect me to believe that Li Jun could be allowed to engage official crime investigation when he suffer severe mental health problem and risk all citizens and officers in life danger? Such nonsense just appeared all over the screen time and made people literally wonder what's going on with this movie.

Most of the character's motivations are simple, easy-predicated and some even ridiculous, which made people more easily to find that how unbelievable flat the character is. This is the kind of the story that you whish you never heard of. This is so....exhausted to watch. Once again, a new tip for myself: DO get out of it even in the middle of screening, when you find something funny is in the film. Instead of a crime fiction that you can enjoy, its more like those ridiculous Late talk show meme for spoof.

will they wander forever?
25 July 2022
The film depicts a melancholy story about a pair of a young women and a man who devoted each other with love and comfort to escape the world that hurts them. Through the story unfolds, I acknowledge something that I find myself most difficult to understand is that: 'the characters eventually choose to escape, to lie and to wander but no to fight, to explain or to have a conversation. ' of course some explanations can be provide to support their motivation but I still worries for those protagonists :'will they wandering forever ?'

The visual presentation shares the features of the mainstream of Modern Japanese Drama and mystery which is, simply, pure and natural. Like the protagonist's eyes, they are unadorned, clean and neat, which serves the story.

Red Sparrow (2018)
7/10
an eastern promise ?
22 July 2022
The film is not bad, not bad at all. Cinematography is grand and massively immersive, the costume and production designs are exquisite and elegant. But for the story, it is just really hard to say a beautiful dancer would doing this job and her character arc is developed into a ...... strange direction, so she is going to take down mother Russia now? And what's more, though the story is quite thrill and bald in sexual presentations and relentless in showing its cruelty of mother Russia, but I hardly imagine that would really be true instead of some weird fantasy.

The Gray Man (2022)

the grave man?
22 July 2022
Since when I find myself seeing bunches of boring film on Netflix just because it got some big stars and exquisite trailers. But I'll try not to fall in to the same trap again. Although the film contains a loads of actions but its more like the piling with quantities instead of qualities.

At the end you didn't feel excited about a new action instead just grew tired of it. Besides that, the poor lines and plots just made the flat characters even more unpleasant to watch. All things about the movie are commercial, I can smell the dollars behind the scenes and a genuine sense of 'nobody gives a .......' The political ploy and conspiracy presented in the film are as childish as its character design. If you haven't seen the film and expected it to be great, it is recommended maybe you don't turn this up on Netflix.

Oh by the way I think Ryan's hair cut is great, why it was teased as 8 dollar hair cut.

Persuasion (I) (2022)
4/10
A not effective persuasion
15 July 2022
I have to admit that in deed it seems quiet appealing when you see the trailer for the first time. Witty comments, addressed by Dakotas' lovely , crispy southern English accent that break the forth wall and her devastatingly constant-switching eye contact, lovely costumes, expensive decorations--all of witch just make this Jan Austin's world more vividly and lively. But sadly, I am afraid the film is just all that worth.

As a matter of fact, there could be a part of me just wish I have only seen the trailer rather the whole film, which I convincingly believe that would left me with much more content.

That said was because, the major presentation of the film is just horrible to watch, expected for the elegant cinematography. The dialogues may be exquisite but definitely childish, the plots have no intension at all rather just two beautiful all ready fall for each other but they just won't say it for all kind of ridiculous reasons and tedious nonsense, and of course, a bunch of unsatisfying characters, which just purely made people suspect that are they just exist for the sake of making people feel funny, odd, and even, mad ?

awful sequel
28 June 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The theme is very clichéd and politicized, and it is said that capitalism has won the victory. It's really amazing... It's hard to put into words

Several important charismatic characters and their planes Finally it's a distortion of the character to let a sexy Cuban handsome guy carry the black pot

The originally cold father suddenly became a kind grandfather, and the arc of the role could not be said at all

Compare other characters to not even have character arcs at all?

Why are the two beautiful girls so desperately in love with Martin? Martin is really beautiful, but the baseless dedication of the two female characters is beyond the point of saying that it feels like a hasty ending, and forcing it to end makes people feel very bad.

And the fake death at the end, I can't come up with a more cheesy ending than that

There are also several important characters that are missing throughout the whole process, and seeing a bad script that doesn't want to star at all can't rule out this possibility. Including Gay Guy Book Writer Annette, all of these important characters are missing, so that Martin doesn't have the opportunity to react at all, and in this part, Martin's growth is also inexplicable Compared to the particularly delicate ending of the second part, the treatment of the third part at the end can only be said to be extremely disappointing, and the intentions of many of the characters, the background, their motives are not interpreted at all, and then they give the characters some blunt purpose, as if Brigitte must help Martin. I simply couldn't understand the motivation for doing so. And the aunts have to preserve capitalism through violent assassinations, and I can't understand why they have to do it.

Not only is the characters disappointing, the whole plot unfolds, there is no logic at all, there is no rhythm between each other, and the overall development is very passive, which makes people feel more and more boring the more you look at it.

Several supporting characters, including two big fools of the Russian soldier brother KGB, the Romanian agent of the Black Panther, have more of a hilarious presence at all, and not only does it not effectively advance the story, but their presence feels very abnormal and depressing.

There are several story lines that look like a celebration of capitalism, a critique of socialism, and the lack of depth and critical thinking as a whole, and it feels very strange

Anyway, it looks like it's really bad, especially for the end of the last episode, which destroyed such a good image of the first and second seasons. Very disliked TV series. Bad reviews. The taste of the music is also very bad, as if the second and third parts are made by two different people. This step of Martin seems to be a demon, killing people and not feeling any guilt, and there are even many lines that are not clearly stated.
