First of all, let’s talk about the two cartoons: " Howl's Moving Castle " with a score of 9.1, and "Spy's Playhouse: Code White" with a score of 7.6. Both movies are Japanese anime. The former was directed by Hayao Miyazaki, so it has high ratings; but because this is an old movie, it was released in Japan in 2004 and there are many resources online, so the box office has just exceeded 100 million. The latter's director, Takashi Katakiri, is not as famous as Hayao Miyazaki, but because it is a new film, the box office exceeded 200 million.

Along the way, they met all kinds of passengers, witnessed various aspects of life, and understood the true meaning of love.
"Nothing Can't Be Solved by a Hot Pot" tells the story of four people who didn't know each other who were sharing stolen goods in a theater backstage warehouse and were accidentally involved in a murder case. A hot hot pot meal stirred up endless suspense, greed and deception. Triggering a series of reversals, in the end, the special identities of the four people gradually surfaced, and the mysterious truth was about to emerge.
"Thelma and Louise" tells the story of the middle-aged protagonist Jia Youwei (played by Jia Bing) who has achieved nothing.

" Peacekeeping Riot Squad " is the first overseas peacekeeping-themed commercial film, focusing on the little-known life and death moments of Chinese peacekeeping police. At the request of the United Nations and dispatched by the country, peacekeeping police officers such as Yu Weidong ( Huang Jingyu ), Yang Zhen ( Wang Yibo ), Ding Hui (Zhong Chuxi) shouldered the sacred mission and traveled to foreign countries to carry out operations in war-torn mission areas. peacekeeping mission.
Non-famous entertainment critic Wu Qinggong pointed out: "Peacekeeping Riot Squad" has such a low Douban score. I really didn't expect it. It can be called a mini version of " Operation Red Sea ". I think the director of "Peacekeeping Riot Squad" should take the blame. There are many deficiencies in grasping the script and storyline. The story lines are loose and the plot development lacks logic. In addition, the character development is superficial and lacks depth, making it difficult for the audience to empathize, further weakening the film's appeal.
"Peacekeeping Riot Squad" has another flaw, that is, after the filming of the film, actor Zhang Mouhan had an accident, which caused the film to need to be replaced and reshot. Ou Hao was appointed to replace Zhang Mouhan in the role. As a result, some shots in the movie lack fluidity, and camera switches are a bit baffling. The final battle scene was not very clear, maybe because I didn’t want the audience to see that Ou Hao’s face was added temporarily.
