Produced by the Ministry of Public Security's Jindun Film and Television Culture Center, Yihan Film and Television Culture (Beijing) Co., Ltd., and Beijing Dongyang Yuntai Investment Guarantee Co., Ltd., directed by Li Mingkun, written by Qu Xinya and Fang Lan, and starring Wen Dongjun, Li Meijun, Xu Dongmei, Ren Qing'an, Liu Beige, Du Du and Li Mingkun, the crime action film "Stranger" will be released on August 14. It is reported that the film not only restores the real underground fighting competition, but also shows a tense and exciting border "battle royale" on the vast and boundless border line.
In order to cure his girlfriend Liu Shuyi, who is suffering from a vicious disease, veteran Qi Yousheng travels to and from the border every day to do transportation business for the merchant Jia Lin's family, and did not think that the Lin family's merchant business was a drug dealer business under the cloak of the lin family. During a transportation, he lost a batch of goods from the Lin family, and the Lin family was entangled.
Tian Dapeng, a former comrade-in-arms, took this opportunity to ask him to go to the overseas black market to fight black fists, so as to spread the long-term surveillance of the foreign warlord Lehe. For the sake of the prize money, but also for the dream he once had, Qi Yousheng left his girlfriend and came abroad, and tried his best to win in one underground competition after another. He became acquainted with Han Ge, who was entangled in gambling debts and escaped from life with punches, Ah Meng, a female boxer who thought that he had escaped to the border by killing people by mistake, and Xiao Wan, a young man who had been abducted and deceived into becoming his assistant, and the three of them supported each other to survive in the border boxing ring, but they accidentally hit and bumped into a bigger storm that involved everyone's lives...
It seems simple, but it is actually subversive. The strange entry point makes it the most eye-catching of the upcoming works, because it pays attention not only to the life and psychological gap of the anti-drug police after leaving the dangerous and tense environment, but also to the interpretation of marginalized groups such as female boxers in the mat field.
The profession of underground boxer, although rare, can also be glimpsed in past movies. The existence of the female boxer Ah Meng in the mat field is the real portrayal of the role of the edge. In too many works of art, female characters are usually high and low into the dust, and excessive interpretation makes the characters lose their authenticity. In "Strangers", Ah Meng's actor is played by Xu Dongmei, a female disciple of Jackie Chan, who was originally a "practicing family", and she will be more kind to the role itself when facing such a role, and she is more handy in interpretation. Ah Meng's life seems absurd, but as a "non-spoiler" type character in the movie full of reversals of fate, this character image is particularly rich and three-dimensional.
In addition to the female boxer Ah Meng, this film also has a tough guy Wen Dongjun who plays the male protagonist with a voice, and Ren Qingan, an old drama bone who plays the "smiling tiger" Lin Hesheng, joins, and the strength faction gathers together to perform the acting skills, which is rare to see. In particular, Wen Dongjun showed off his good figure this time, and in the boxing arena of fierce fighting, his solid muscles became the most eye-catching landscape.
In addition to showing the gripping underground boxing match, the tense and exciting car chase scene, and the majestic and magnificent desert wilderness, the interpretation of the friendship line and the love line also touches people's hearts, such as the helpless embarrassment of the real problem under the deep affection of The painted Voice for Liu Shuyi's money; the loss of fate under the sympathy of Ah Meng, the evasion and hesitation under Tian Dapeng's comradeship, and so on, all kinds of emotions, all of which are plump with paint and sound, making him a flesh-and-blood character image, rather than a "flat person" on paper ”。
Nowadays, more and more realistic themes are put on the screen, and the aesthetic level of the audience is gradually improving. For example, the high ratings of "Icebreaker Action" prove that there is not a good audience without good themes and appreciation themes, but the lack of crews that put this theme on the screen. "Stranger" is precisely with such a down-to-earth work mentality, in the blockbuster summer file to kill a road, I believe it will bring a lot of different surprises.
Looking forward to august 14, the audience will walk into the cinema to watch a fist-to-flesh fighting event and enjoy a "hormone explosion" border storm!
