Or no shrimp?
Horned Head 2
On August 6, 2021, the online movie "Angry Scalper", starring Wu Fan, an action actor from China's Martial Arts athletes, premiered on iQiyi's entire network and achieved a box office of more than 5.3 million in 3 days of release.
Because "Angry Scalper" is remade from the Korean action movie of the same name, so although Wu Fan acted very hard and played hard, the online rating is not high.
"Angry Scalper" is directed by Guo Yulong, starring Wu Fan, Dong Xuan, Cui Zhijia, Gu Bin, Yang Di, Wang Ganggang, Wang Shanshui, Zhang Kai, Xiao Yuanxi, Wang Tao, Liang Chaoyou, Yue Yang special.
The Korean original is 6.4 points on Douban, and the Chinese version of "Angry Scalper" has only 4.5 points.
The film is set in Thailand, where Batuu, played by Wu Fan, is a retired sanda champion who sells seafood, because his wife (played by Dong Xuan) is kidnapped by a criminal gang that sells human beings; Batuu becomes an angry scalper and braves the tiger's den with two friends to rescue his wife.
Because it is a remake, there is nothing new in the plot story, and the focus of "Angry Scalper" is the martial arts design.
However, because there is no opponent of sufficient weight, coupled with the fact that Wu Fan wants to compete against the Korean-American, Ma Dongxi, who is 180 in height and weighs 180, cannot visually reach the momentum of the other party.
Therefore, "Angry Scalper" is difficult to surpass the original original that was not highly rated.
However, the villain of "Angry Scalper" Ka Fang is very eye-catching, and the crazy look is very annoying, that is, when it is finally cleaned up, it is too soft.
Take a closer look, this guy is no one else, it is the 2017 Taiwan Province Gu Qiuzai movie "Horn 2: The King Rises Again", the murderous and cold-blooded Gu Qiuzai is bad.
Although he had dyed his black hair back and grew a beard, the frenzy was still there.
His actor is Gu Bin, a young film and television actor from Hong Kong who has developed in Taiwan Province.
【Gu Bin】Born in Hong Kong in 1986, with a height of 178, he worked as an advertising model in Hong Kong and began to develop his acting career in Taiwan in 2009.
Gu Bin is a young man of the generation who was deeply influenced by the movie "Ancient Puzzle Boy", and his idol is the pheasant played by Chen Xiaochun. Later, he also starred in Gu Qiuzai as he wished, and became a blockbuster.
2017's "Horned Head 2: The King's Resurgence" is definitely the best Taiwanese Province Gu Qiu Tsai film after "Mengjia", and it is also the best jianghu film after "Gu Qiu Tsai".
The success of "Horn head 2: The king's comeback" is mainly the wonderful performance of Taiwanese male actors such as Zou Zhaolong and Wang Zhixian, who performed the arrogance and demeanor of the big brother of the corner head in Taiwan Province.
In addition, in the movie, it recreates the large scene of hundreds of people taking to the street to fight in the group in "Ancient Puzzle Boy", and it is also accompanied by a number of Hokkien interludes with a strong sense of rhythm, which is quite platooned.
There is also the wonderful play of small roles such as Gu Bin, which is even more impressive.
The little boss played by Gu Bin is bad, dyed with a striking white hair, and maintains a state of excitement at any time.
Unfortunately, this is not a pheasant-style ancient puzzle boy, but a beautiful villain.
This bad bad is very ferocious and fierce, and at the beginning he appeared in a sports car that pulled the wind, talking to a rival boss in a very arrogant tone; after going upstairs, he threw the other party downstairs under the boss's order.
Throughout the whole time, he still maintained that kind of evil smile.
Zou Zhaolong plays his boss Liu Jian, from beginning to end is a variety of styles of haute couture slim suits, shirt collar tie knot, famous watches and silk scarves and other decorations are not less; also smoke cigars and drink red wine, sit in high-end office buildings, listen to elegant music, read English books, completely a domineering president's Fan, the eyes also reveal an aggressive momentum.
Only such a boss can suppress such a subordinate.
Soon, bad and bad beat ah chao, the small leader of the opponent's horns, to the point of blood, and the more he fought, the more excited he became; in the end, the two gangs of people started to fight, and it was he who shot several shots in the stomach with his own hands, and then kicked into the shrimp pond.
In the end, he smoked drugs in a nightclub, high to half take the girl out of the street, and was hacked to death by Ah Chao's brother in the rainy street.
"Horned Head 2: The Comeback of the King" has a lot of violent and bloody scenes, and there are also restrictive scenes such as striptease and drug use.
All these scenes, there is this bad bad.
In particular, when he was killed, he was first cut off by a hand, and the camera gave a slow freeze frame. Although the blood did not spurt out in the rain, the picture can still make people shudder.
The movie "Horned Head 2: The King Rises Again" was more than 2 hours old, and he was killed in less than 1 hour. However, such a fierce character is enough for him to become famous in one battle.
After that, he starred in "Horned Head Prequel: Never Look Back" and "Horned Head: Wandering", almost always continuing the style and story of "Horned Head 2: The King's Comeback"; and the bad played by Gu Bin has become an indispensable and important component of the "Horn head" theme movie.
The crime suspense film "Soul Hunting" released on January 15, 2021, starring Zhang Zhen and Zhang Junning, Gu Bin played a young group president Wang Shicong in the film, in addition to the gay setting, the sense of existence is not strong.
The costume romance drama "Jinxin Like Jade", which premiered on February 26, 2021, starred Zhong Hanliang and Tan Songyun, and Gu Bin played a small character, Luo Wuniang's husband Qian Ming, and his sense of existence was not strong.
The card release of "Angry Scalper" is almost a copy of the bad of "Horned Head 2: The King Rises Again".
It's just that Ka fang is the boss, bad enough to be arrogant; and there is a boss on the bad side of "Horned Head 2: The King Rises Again", but he is more crazy and arrogant, more impressive.
He is also dressed in a suit and leather shoes, talks yin and yang weird, and when he goes crazy, he will hit his own men at any time, which is quite perverted.
Repeating the same role may limit Gu Bin's acting path, but at least he has a masterpiece that can open up the situation in the broader mainland film and television circle.
Now, it's an era when bad guys are good and more popular than good guys.
