Andy Lau’s new film, and Louis Koo have partnered again after 12 years, but the director averages 5.6 points for the recent 5 works

June is coming to an end. When we were tested by the sun, the box office of the movie fell to a freezing point. The several commercial films released in June that were promising in the early stage are basically showing the state of being on the street, whether it is the domestic "Chasing the Dragon 2", or the X-Men series "Black Phoenix", the man in black, etc. It's on the street, not to mention 1 billion, even 500 million is a barrier.

This also directly led to the first negative growth in the domestic film market in 9 years.

Fortunately, another wave of movies will be released soon, hoping to save the June sluggish movie market.

is here today to talk to you about the upcoming Hong Kong movie on July 19:

"Sweeping Drugs 2: Heaven and Earth Showdown"

​​It has been 6 years since the last "Sweeping Drugs", but "Sweeping Drugs 2" The story has nothing to do with the previous work, it is a brand new story. The

film uses "drugs" as a clue to tell the story of the philanthropist and financial giant Yu Shuntian played by Andy Lau because his father was destroyed by drugs, so he offered a reward of 100 million for the life of "Hong Kong's largest drug dealer" played by Gu Tianle.

The police officer Lin Zhengfeng, played by Miao Qiaowei, collects evidence to arrest Ksitigarbha, on the other hand, because of the mission, he has to protect Ksitigarbha's life from threats, and he also falls into Yu Shuntian's high price temptation.

is like this, a battle between heaven and earth caused by drugs is about to start.

Of course, the iconic shootouts, car chases and blasting scenes of Hong Kong movies are definitely indispensable.

But the highlights of the film are more than these. Next, let’s talk about the major highlights in the film from the current information:

1, the actors are worth twelve points of expectations. Fans, when I first learned about the cast of Anti-Drug 2, it must have been difficult for a while. Comparing

with "Sweeping Drugs", "Sweeping Drugs 2" is undoubtedly a complete change of blood. Only Koo Tianle, Zhang Jiahui and Liu Qingyun did not participate in the performance. Without the incarnation of justice, Ma Sir and Ah Wei, who else will they rely on to fight drugs?

​​Don’t worry, if you take a closer look at the cast, the editor believes that many audiences will think: "Ah, it's so fragrant!"

does not have Liu Qingyun and Zhang Jiahui. It is Andy Lau and Miao Qiaowei who took over.

Miao Qiaowei is a veteran actor. He became popular with "Leaping the Eighteenth Floor". He was also known as the five wireless tigers with Tang Zhenye, Huang Rihua, Andy Lau, and Tony Leung. His Yang Kang was the white moonlight in the hearts of many people.

Andy Lau, not to mention, this new film is that he and Louis Koo reunited after 12 years. This is the first time that the two have partnered after "The Disciples" in 2007, and many fans are excited.

Moreover, although the two have no rivals in "The Disciples", they are all rivals in "Sweeping Drugs 2"!

Every time the two confront each other, the atmosphere and eyes can make people experience the feeling of suffocation together. The cast of

shouldn't lose to "Anti-Drug".

2, the characters in the film are relatively complex

Compared with "Sweeping Drugs", the characters in "Sweeping Drugs 2" are more complicated.

The two factions of right and evil in "Anti-drugs" are very clear. Of course, the two reversals of Zhang Jiahui in the film are really amazing, but in fact, the tone of their decent characters is already relatively obvious, so in general, it will be relatively simple.

In "Anti-Drug 2", Yu Shuntian, played by Andy Lau, is difficult to distinguish between right and evil. Generally speaking, according to the routine of Hong Kong movies, the more he looks like a good person, the less a good person, and he was not a clean businessman before, and then he used money again. Buy life. All signs of

are enough to prove that this is not a simple character, so what kind of existence is in the film is very intriguing.

is also A sir played by Miao Qiaowei. If his role corresponds to "Anti-drugs", it should be Zhang Jiahui's Awei, so if the overall structure is similar, he is the person with the greatest possibility of reversing the film.

​​Regarding his inner struggles and human choices, will it darken? Whether the realization of justice is to choose procedural justice or result justice is a mystery.

And even the villain who seems the least suspenseful representative, Koo Tianle, has a past behind him. At the beginning of the

trailer, there was a segment of his finger-severing scene, which was painful to watch, but also pave the way for the behavior of the characters later.

(At first glance, this glove is somewhat similar to Thanos’ glove)

, but from the perspective of Gu Tianle’s villain role, his arrogant villain is not as stunning as the gloomy villain. For this, you can refer to "Dangerous City" and "Killing "Broken Wolf 2", "Dangerous City" gives people a slightly greasy feeling, on the contrary, "Broken Wolf 2" is very amazing.

currently has a few screens in the trailer, and it feels a bit biased towards the arrogant villain, the editor is still a little worried about the overall presentation.

In short, there is still a bit of suspense in the characterization of characters that is worthy of scrutiny, and it can be regarded as a highlight of the film.

3. The story is moving towards the confusion.

thinks that in the past, "Anti-Drugs" spent a lot of pen and ink portraying the brotherhood of the three people outside of the drug line, and abruptly took a modern police film into an ancient dragon-style passionate passion. I saw the editor tearfully. In the

movie, the three people usually Lu Xiaofeng outside Jianqiu's house, confronting each other at the container terminal, and finally the tacit fighting scene in Macau, which still has a taste of "Men's True Colors".

And the plot of "Sweeping Drugs 2", judging from the introduction, it seems that it has no relationship with brotherhood. However, the trailer gave us more clues.

let the editor make a bold guess: At the beginning, Yu Shuntian played by Hua Tsai and Diba played by Gu Tsai should be Ma Tsai of the gang, and they still have brotherhood.

But because Gu Zai committed a ban and touched the thread, he had to be chopped off. Hua Zai did it himself.

Later Gu Tsai returned gorgeously and began to retaliate. Perhaps under his instruction, Hua Tsai's father was killed indirectly. So the two people who were once brothers turned their backs on this, and Hua Zi, who became a successful entrepreneur, offered a reward for Gu Zi's life. The highlight of

here is what position the two brothers of more than 20 years will be in in the final duel. At the same time, the other line of

is Miao Qiaowei's A sir. In addition to the possibility of opening the reversal branch, it should make a lot of contributions to the film's human struggle.

Although it looks like "Sweeping Drugs 2: Battle Between Heaven and Earth" is quite worth looking forward to, some netizens have faint concerns about the film's director. Why does

say that?

Although Qiu Litao became famous very early, Douban scored an average of 5.6 points for nearly five works released in the past three years. Among the five most acclaimed works, the most recent one is "Half Intoxicating World" in 2006.

and the output is very high. In the second half of 19 years alone, there were 3 works, and there are 4 movies to be released in 20 years! If

is not famous enough, Wang Jing’s "Rotten Movie King" hat can be given to him.

The only thing worthy of praise is that the action crime movie "The Hurt Locker" was nominated for the Hong Kong Film Awards in 2018. This also gives us another point of ridicule: Is

"The Hurt Locker" or not? "Abnormal" works? It is still this movie that brings together Andy Lau and Louis Koo to continue to surprise us!
