When I first watched the movie "Equator", the author was a little confused about the plot, or I downloaded it later and watched it twice to clarify the reason. I don’t know if everyone feels this way too; also From the last "war with the equator, it’s only now officially started", the author thought of "Equator 2" or change the name of the movie; according to online news, "Equator 2" is still in the creation period, and it must be adjusted. The staff’s scheduled shooting, maybe one day the trailer will suddenly be exposed, but this still makes the audience have infinite expectations; The author will start from the main creation, plot, inner ghost, and cast of the movie "Equator" Let’s analyze this movie in depth and hope that everyone will like it.

The main creator of the movie "Equator"
"Equator" is the latest masterpiece of Lu Jianqing and Liang Lemin after the "Chill War". It is larger than "Chill" in terms of funding, casting or layout. At first, many people will regard him as the sequel of "Chill", in fact, of course not, but he and "Chill" have one feature, that is, they buried the foreshadowing of the sequel. This time, the two directors have made a very big challenge in the plot and ending arrangements. challenge着 The general perception and thoughts of ordinary audiences, and even the stage that makes the audience angry. The author admits that the author is a general audience who feels very popular at the moment, but in the end, the author began to admire the ambition of the two directors and the mentality of courage to try.

Now Jacky Cheung, who is busy holding a concert, is finished watching After the film, the author fully believes why he would be willing to make this film after half a year of consideration, and I also very much agree with the casting of the two directors. The role of under Jacky Cheung’s interpretation is really good and convincing. The cast of the whole movie is also very good. The author personally thinks that Jacky Cheung and Jiahui Cheung are already an indispensable reason.

This time the content of "Equator" crosses China, Hong Kong and Macau In addition, South Korea is also very commendable in terms of framing and language rigor in addition to the amazing cast. Although the author really does not like the language switching between countries in this movie, but for the production team Still must be affirmed.
Analysis of the plot of the movie "Equator"
The plot of the movie starts with a hand-held weapon unilaterally manufactured by South Korea, which will be traded in Hong Kong after being stolen by a weapon smuggler nicknamed the Equator In order to regain this extremely lethal weapon, Li Yanming (Zhang Jiahui), chief inspector of the Hong Kong Anti-Terrorism Secret Service, sought help from Zhao Zhiren (Zhang Xueyou), a physics professor who is a crisis management expert, and the South Korean side also sent a South Korean deputy manager. Choi Minho (played by Ji Jinhee) and agent Park Woo-cheol (played by Choi Siwon) arrive in Hong Kong to assist.

In fact, you can see him very simple, but you can also see him very simple. If you look at it simpler, it's just that each character chooses how to treat this hand-held weapon made in South Korea for the sake of their own interests and consideration of factors. But if you don’t want to watch it simply, the political stand behind each character will deepen the depth of the movie a lot.
When the role of Song An (played by Wang Xueqi) appeared in Hong Kong, it was originally just a task of intercepting weapon smuggling and retrieving it. It instantly became a diplomatic and political issue between countries. Zhao Zhiren advocated that the weapons should be taken away by South Korean personnel after they were received, butBecause of Song An’s intervention, the weapons were forced to stay in Hong Kong. Song An represents the position of our country. His position is to return weapons to South Korea through Chinese diplomacy. He once said in the play: The United States does not allow countries to make weapons privately. On the surface, it is for world peace. Maintain their hegemony; He has to return weapons internationally. The author believes that on the one hand, it should be shown to the United States, and on the other hand, the United States should "care" about the South Korea that secretly made its weapons. But is the United States really stupid enough to wait for our country to tell him: Hey, South Korea is making weapons; I think the answer is no.

Analysis of ghosts in the movie "Equator"
As for the ghosts, what I tell you on the table is: Zhao Zhiren , Xiaoyuan-Song An's assistant (Feng Wenjuan)
Of course, Zhao Zhiren is undoubtedly, but Xiaoyuan's author has reservations. She was alive or dead until the end, but she didn't actually give the audience an answer. Even the author thought that when Zhang Zhen led the killer to blast the car, she was really sure that she would not hit Xiao Yuan. If this is just a The plot to scare Song An is not unreasonable.
But there is one thing Song An is right: there is more than one messenger. As the poster says: There is more than one ghost. In fact, there are many places in the process of reading that the author thinks is very unreasonable, very unscientific, and there is no way to understand why the other party would do this. Of course, friends in the same industry also pointed out what he thinks is unreasonable, so the author thinks carefully. The author can only get one answer: The real ghost is Cui Minhao.

Only he is the inner ghost, all this can make sense. Including why when Park Woo-cheol pursued Zhang Zhen, Zhang Zhen left such an important weapon on the scene after others disappeared after the car crash. At that time, when the Koreans came to Hong Kong, the play also specifically stated that one of the codes to activate the weapon was on Park Woo-chul, and the other was on the intelligence officer stationed in Hong Kong. Only by possessing these two coded weapons can it be activated. Then Zhang Zhen left this weapon on the scene to give Cui Minhao enough reasons to persuade everyone to let him activate this weapon.

Why does Cui Minhao trust Zhao Zhiren so much? After Zhao Zhiren said that the weapon had been leaked, he told Professor Park Yuzhe that he was helping him. So he can reasonably trust the professor, and even when the professor gives him an address to ask him to go, he can pass without any doubt, and he has not died after being severely shot. All of this is so unreasonable, the only reasonable Yes, it's the only reason why Cui Minho is a ghost.
The cast of the movie "Equator"
As for the actors, although it is considered a group play, the roles and the duties that the role must complete are fairly evenly distributed, which I particularly like The section when Zhang Jiahui went to see Jacky Cheung alone, especially his line: Because I am used to doubting everyone. I believe that the acting skills of the two are beyond doubt. Wang Xueqi is also very accurate as a representative of China. The greatest enjoyment of watching this movie I think: It is just that watching each of the powerful factions does not have the feeling of acting.

On the contrary, there are two-thirds of Zhang Zhen who wears the role of "Equator" in this movie. There is really nothing impressive. The special play is the same as Shawn Yue. Of course, Yu Wenle is a bit more miserable. Apart from the gathering of big names, the role is of no importance. Although he arranged a brave rush in the parking lot for him, it still stops there. No matter how much it is, it becomes A pure face-selling character. Although I thought that the plot arrangement that used him to exchange information on the equator would give him more play, it was also because of the informant’sHis role in this movie has also come to an end, which is really a pity.

However, I would like to especially appreciate Wen Yongshan, although she is a model, but In recent years, I have gradually made efforts and progress on the road to actors. Although did not play an important role or even looked like a vase before, this time "Equator" made people’s eyes bright. There is no line, but she successfully interprets a sexy female assassin. The play is very good. I believe her future achievements should have a chance to surpass Angelababy, who is also a model.

0da1a#Korea The two male actors of Ji Jinxi and Choi Siwon, because the author has no research on Korean actors. But I think Ji Jinxi's acting skills are quite stable, so this role is very suitable. Choi Siwon also appeared as a professional agent during the shootout. He didn't have a strong idol taste, which was pretty good.

Overall, the author thinks this is a good movie. All aspects are taken into consideration. The shootout and blasting scenes are also pretty good. just sometimes feels that it’s a bit of a mess if you can’t kill, especially the character of Wen Yongshan, I almost suspect that her body is actually made of titanium alloy. Up. It's just that the two directors' films have a big common problem. They want to make the layout bigger, but they tend to ignore the details and smoothness. This part is quite a pity. I hope they can improve this part.
Although the ending part is very similar to the sequel in the trailer, although Jacky Cheung admitted his identity to the equator in the play, it is not necessarily that he is the "real" equator, or the equator is not the only one. The equator itself is the number one weapon smuggling thief active in various countries. Perhaps when there is a sequel to "Equator", Jacky Cheung may not really need to be played. There are suspense in all aspects, and there are foreshadowings in all aspects, but I think many people. Unable to accept this kind of ending, is just like what my friend said: Why is there no justice will win; this is really a very bold arrangement by the two directors.
