In the audience’s impression, it is difficult for most of the series to surpass the predecessors. Although the first part of "Bomb Disposal Experts" is crowded with big names, the score is not too high. Douban scores 6.3. The slot is mainly reflected in the plot logic. There are bugs in the script of
, no matter how big the coffee is, it can’t be saved, so many people are not optimistic about " Bomb Disposal Expert 2", let alone why Qiu Litao wanted to make this second one.
Mo Jun went to see the movie on the first day of its launch. The attendance rate of the movie hall in which he was located exceeded 60%, which exceeded other movies of the same period. It was released for 5 days and the box office has reached more than 400 million. The movies in the same period Ranked first in here. This result exceeded many people's expectations.
"Bomb Disposal Expert 2" has an opening score of 8.0, which is better than 91% of the action movies, and the audience has received rave reviews. At the end of the year, Shuang Liu finally gave the audience a satisfactory answer. Although
can't bear to find logical loopholes in this highly completed movie, Mo Jun still has to mention a few more obvious points, which are also easily overlooked by the audience and regarded as bugs.
Is the cat in the microwave too deliberate?
Andy Lau, a bomb disposal expert, Pan Chengfeng, after dismantling the bomb with his partner Dong Zhuowen (Liu Qingyun), the nervous music became soothed. At this time, Dong Zhuowen had walked out the door and Pan Chengfeng was in I heard several meows when I was about to leave.
He stepped back and crouched down to find a microwave oven under the table, and a cat was crouching in it pitifully for help.
The music is soothing and the mood is relaxed. The bomb disposal expert who has always been alert has lost his professionalism at this time, and just pressed the open button of the microwave oven.
The cat ran out quickly, and a huge explosion sounded afterwards, making the scene a mess. It is estimated that the plate in the microwave lost the pressure of the cat and triggered the bomb.
This is a bug that people cannot ignore. This is not to question whether the expert is a Virgin, but it involves professional ethics-at the crime scene, any unthinkable details should be vigilant.
But Pan Chengfeng didn't have it, so he did it easily.
The loud noise and smoke that suddenly exploded from the soothing music really shocked the audience, and the situation at the scene was indeed terrifying-Pan Chengfeng was lying in the pit hole, half of his legs Gone. The viewing effect of
has been achieved, but the details cannot withstand scrutiny?
Mo Jun feels that it is not necessary to pick faults here. The transformation of Pan Chengfeng's personality requires an opportunity-to become a disabled person.
Under what circumstances should a broken leg happen? Changing to either method may unavoidably be attributed to his "oversight" and "too contemptuous of the opponent" , or it was his failure to rescue the hostages and his legs.
Therefore, the act of "saving the cat" also portrays Pan Chengfeng's compassionate character by the way. He doesn't take things as small as possible, and don't take things as big as possible.
, in the subsequent plot, formed a sharp contrast with his crazy action of bombing the airport with a nuclear bomb.
Pan Chengfeng’s extreme personality
Pan Chengfeng put on prostheses, exercised very hard, and tried to return to the team as soon as possible, but was told by superiors to arrange him to do a clerical job.
At this time, his mood was very abnormal, and he reprimanded Dong Zhuowen for not helping himself to speak.
The audience does not understand this. Bomb disposal specialists are very dangerous jobs. Don’t you feel scared after you have lost a leg? A clerical job is a very good place for him.
There are some dangerous industries, people who have never known mayCan't understand. The
bomb disposal experts are selected from thousands of miles and selected one by one. Every time the bombs were dismantled, they went alone to reduce their losses-because they were unsuccessful, they might be dead.
This sense of mission and responsibility makes them unwilling to retreat. Others have to retreat, but they have to step forward alone, and their personality is not noble.
learned a professional bomb disposal skill, but retreated to the second line because of a broken leg. Pan Chengfeng was very hard to swallow. He happened to have an old partner next to him for comparison. He was burned and could stay on the job. Going to do a clerical job, wasting all your skills
" bomb disposal is not with your hands or legs !" This is Pan Chengfeng's obsession.
However, the actual situation is that the superior explained that "the people will feel insecure about bombing the disabled." This is also true. It is not that the superiors deliberately targeted him or discriminated against the disabled.
Judging from the strict threshold for selecting bomb disposal technicians, Pan Chengfeng does not have a chance to return to the team. His obsession and the demands of the people formed a conflict, but he believed that it was the higher-level department that gave him away when he was used up, and then there was a scene where he suddenly raised the banner at the merit commendation meeting.
did this kind of thing, which is equivalent to completely expelling oneself from the team of EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal Bureau) .
Why does his character become so extreme? There are many close-ups in the
film: started taking a psychotropic drug for pain relief during Pan Chengfeng's injury training. It is unknown whether his personality change is a side effect caused by the drug, otherwise he would not give close-ups of multiple times.
learned that Pang Ling had been used by him, and why he still chose to continue with the viciousness
After Pan Chengfeng fell into serious injury and amnesia, he completely forgot what he had done after leaving EOD. "The undercover agent asked him to continue lurking in the Resurrection Society to prevent their terrorist attacks.
Pan Chengfeng chose to believe in Pang Ling, but then found out in the news that he was actually a vicious criminal. He felt that he was being exploited, so he took off his monitor and chose to join the "Resurrection Club" team again. .
However, while witnessing the shooting of his former colleague with his own eyes, he burst into tears and immediately decided to continue Pang Ling's plan.
Has his conscience returned too quickly? The movie
did not ignore this point. In the flashback clip, it was mentioned that suffered a loss of brain memory, which is equivalent to a blank sheet of paper. Implanting the corresponding memory may change one’s temperament and even view . It was precisely this point that Pang Ling planned to "utilize" Pan Chengfeng's undercover operation.
Although in the process of slowly recovering his memory, Pan Chengfeng gradually remembered his identity before the amnesia, but the beautiful memory that Pang Ling implanted kept his conscience alive, completely removing the original hostility.
This is why he was willing to be used, and sacrificed himself to dismantle the bomb for atonement.
Live shooting actors are also good enough to fight
All the bombs in "Bomb Disposal Expert 2" are 1:1 imitations based on the real appearance, while airport station evacuation and other scenes, including the nose cabin, are all On-site shooting.
used the limited time to shoot enough rich scenes, and Xie Junhao repeatedly praised the director for being "so amazing."
Because Andy Lau's prosthesis in the film is too real, many viewers are curious about how it was filmed, and it looks like Andy Lau actually had his limb severed.
When the film crew released the highlights, we realized that many of Andy Lau's scenes were filmed on her knees.
As can be seen from the photo, his left knee is kneeling on the prosthesis, and the part that needs special effects is put on green stockings.
walking like this is very hard, the weight of the half body is on the knees, and there are a lot of intense running scenes. In the film, it is obvious to see Andy Lau staggering in the scene of the escape from the hospital, but he is flexible. .
The reporter asked him if he adapted to walking like this? Andy Lau said in a joking tone: If you take the money, you have to adapt.
In order to adapt, Andy Lau put on prostheses for months to practice. Not only is the acting dedicated enough, but before the release, he runs to help the movie promotion, and whoever asks him to act will find it a good deal.
Now it is not easy to make a film that has both box office and word of mouth. The taste of the audience has been pulled to the point that "you can watch it as long as it is not too bad."
And "Bomb Disposal Expert 2" can achieve a perfect balance between the big scene and the details, the logic is meticulous and the deep human thinking, it surprises the audience again and again, and it can be called a dark horse at the end of the year.
Andy Lau has always been committed to supporting Hong Kong films. If this can be done, then why worry about the prospects of Hong Kong films.
