If we want to put it in the past, we must have entered the work position early, but this year we can only stay at home, and we can’t do anything with big eyes. Only chasing drama can make such a boring life appear so boring.
At this moment, another new film was released quietly, and "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" was also released on the online platform ahead of schedule. This is also after "囧 Mom" landed on the network platform, another theater-line movie was registered on the network platform. Prior to this, "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" was released in Hong Kong on January 23.
The title of the movie "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" is easily associated with Bruce Lee's masterpiece "The Raptors Crossing the River". I haven’t watched the film. I just saw the poster and felt that the poster seemed to be exactly the same as the previous "Fatty Action Team". With Wang Jing’s participation and screenwriting, I felt that this would be another " New Year's comedy of "fried cold rice".
However, after watching the movie, the editor here is no exaggeration to say that this movie should be Wang Jing's best film in recent years.
brothers and friends are in battle
Wang Jing is one of the film's screenwriters and leading actors. As the screenwriter of the play, Wang Jing is very good at picking roles. He plays Zhu Fulong (played by Donnie Yen) in Japan's helper, handsome brother. He is a fat uncle with a beard, and fits well with his own image. Although Xiao Shao has many shortcomings, he is also very infatuated. His fat figure is full of joy even if he doesn't speak.
In recent years, Wang Jing and Donnie Yen have been cooperating frequently, and Wang Jing has also continued to broaden Donnie’s play. An important work in the director's career, "Chasing the Dragon" was handed over to Donnie Yen, for the first time for Donnie Yen to try a movie with mostly literary drama. Later, in "Big Brother", Donnie Yen was asked to play a positive energy teacher, and now "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" let Donnie Yen try the possibility of comedy.
The storyline of "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" has no big tricks, very old-fashioned. It's basically a continuation of "The Raptors Crossing the River". A police officer who was demoted due to work mistakes came to a foreign country to investigate a case, and then stood up again after experiencing setbacks abroad. It also adds elements such as love and suspense, which also makes the movie look fuller.
director Kenji Tanigaki greatly improved the quality of the film. Perhaps because more than half of the plays in "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" are in Japan, Wang Jing chose Kenji Tanigaki as the director. Tanigaki Kenji is a Japanese, a well-known action director, and a disciple of Donnie Yen, one of the important members of the Zhen family class.
Kenji Tanigaki also made a lot of effort in martial arts this time. The most prominent part of this movie is the martial arts part. Even many parts of the literary drama are also presented in martial arts, which also conceals many plots. Insufficient, his addition also gave this movie a whole new look. This time, Wang Jing's team also put a lot of effort into the later stage of the film. The editing is sharp and the rhythm is tight. The 96-minute film does not stop at all, making the lack of scene production and special effects seem so abrupt.
2. Donnie Yen tried the action comedy
for the first time. In addition, Kenji Tanigaki and Donnie Yen met in the movie, which is also a good opportunity to show their strength. The representative figure of "action comedy" is Jackie Chan. In addition, Kenji Tanigaki is a fan of Jackie Chan. In "Fat Dragon Crossing the River", we can see a lot of Jackie Chan's action style.
Not long after the movie started, the bank robbery suddenly attracted people. In different spaces, use various spaces and bunkers, and use various props to hit the opponent's key parts. Interspersed with comedy action again, it seems to be back to the golden age of Jackie Chan movies.
Donnie Yen’s action style has also been greatly changed because of this movie. "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" is different from the "Ip Man" series, which is back on the track of Donnie Yen's fashion action movies. The martial arts design is also in line with the current integrated martial arts techniques, which is more modern and practical.
In the last scene, all kinds of fancy actions are on the battlefield, and the fight on the eaves is the highlight of the film. Not only does it add parkour elements, but the cool martial arts moves seem to return to the early works of Donnie Yen I feel, I believe this will make Yen Zidan fansWe were so excited.
three. A tribute full of feelings
The title of this movie is as if we foreshadow this is a movie that pays tribute to Bruce Lee. At the same time, the storyline of the film basically continues the plot of "The Raptors Crossing the River". In this mode, we can see many shadows of "The Raptors Crossing the River". In the battle between two people, we can see the Jeet Kune Do like Bruce Lee, the iconic quick punch, and the nunchaku that defeated the villain is one of the most important elements of Bruce Lee.
At the level of Donnie Yen, there is also a lot of recollection of the year. This movie flashed back to "Fuse" and "Slaying the Wolf" as Zhu Fulong's prequels, coupled with the action level of Yen Zidan who completely returned to that period, "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" is more like a gift from Yen Zidan. A summary is also a gift for the audience who likes him.
