Louis Koo has a new movie released. When hearing this news, many people's first reaction should be "support". I have to say that the attendance rate of "Principal Gu" is really high, and he can almost be seen busy in recent Hong Kong films. And "Walker Walker 2" released on August 7 is his fifth work this year. The film continues the cast of the first film, but the story is different.

As of 7pm, the total box office of "Apostle Walker 2" exceeded 120 million, temporarily ranking second on the day, because it was the first day of the show, and the special day of Qixi Festival, overall the box office results are still relatively good. People satisfied. From the data point of view, "Apostle 2" occupies second only to "Nezha" in terms of filming rate, so it is natural that it cannot lag behind in terms of box office performance.

​​currently has a score of 7.3 for this movie on Douban. Although it has dropped from the beginning, it is still considered a qualified movie in the summer. Of course, the audience naturally prefers to see all kinds of drag racing and gun battles in the film, which make hormones soar. It is reported that when the film was filmed, the crew moved to Myanmar and Spain to film, and the audience can also appreciate the exotic atmosphere when watching the film.

It is worth mentioning that the three big stars of Louis Koo, Zhang Jiahui and Wu Zhenyu are really enjoyable in the film, and there are basically no substitutes for the "martial arts" of several people, which also makes people a little worried about this group of over half a century old How many years can the opera bones play?

Louis Koo is 49 years old and he still maintains a high attendance rate. Even this year, he has 5 movies online, and there will be more in the future.

some audience ridiculed: Maybe he is short of money to build a school.

is not difficult to find in various film works starring in Louis Koo, among which there are many bad films and high-rated masterpieces. And the Hong Kong films he represents are still in trouble without any surprises. The most obvious of these is that among the current generation of stars in Hong Kong, almost none can sustain the reputation and box office of movies. The reason why Hong Kong movies have become popular in the Chinese circle is the diversification of themes. The early Hong Kong movies left a deep impression on people, and actors such as Chow Yun Fat and Leslie Cheung became popular. However, with the improvement of the aesthetics of domestic audiences, Hong Kong films that had never been made "police and gangster films" were abandoned by mainland audiences.

The current Hong Kong films are supported by old actors such as Louis Koo, Wu Zhenyu, Zhang Jiahui, Andy Lau, Leung Ka Fai, Aaron Kwok, Chow Yun-fat, and the youngest of them, Louis Koo is nearly 50 years old.

takes the hit movie "Wushuang" last year with a score of 8.1 points as an example. In the film, the newcomers are absent, relying on the nearly 60-year-old Chow Yun-fat and 53-year-old Aaron Kwok to attract audiences. In "Sweeping Drugs 2", which was also a summer file some time ago, it was also the support of old actors such as Andy Lau, Louis Koo, and Miao Qiaowei that only got 1.294 billion box office.

Of course, there are also older generation actors who are trying to make changes. For example, "Master Star" Zhou Xingchi, who dedicated countless smiles back then, started to be a director. While making people forget his iconic smile, they will also find that the new actors cannot perform. Zhou Xingchi's nonsensical, on the contrary, is more embarrassing.

Jackie Chan is still on the road of kung fu comedy, but the film department shot in recent years has hit the street, such as the Spring Festival stalls "The Detective Pu Songling" finally lost the box office word-of-mouth double line, and he also "not guaranteed in the evening."

In fact, Hong Kong movies have indeed been at a low point for many years. Although police movies represented by "Chasing the Dragon" and "Drug War" have made breakthroughs at the box office in recent years, these unchanging police and criminal routines are still the same. , Without innovation, it will become obsolete.

The bloody scene in "Apostle Walker 2" makes people feel excited. It is moving to see the brotherhood between Louis Koo and Zhang Jiahui. It is undeniable that the quality of this movie is acceptable. But not every Hong Kong movie can achieve such results. Although Hong Kong movies have given us infinite touch and joy, if there are no newcomers in the position for a long time, Hong Kong movies will still be embarrassing.
