I watched the movie "Lobster Detective" last night and found it very interesting. The biggest flaw of the film is the sudden change in emotional tone. "Lobster Detective" should be positioned as a comedy. Liu Hua and Shen Teng are both veteran actors in comedies. From Wang Qianyuan's thoughts, you should also be able to feel the director's interest in the film. The positioning of this drama, but the screenwriter arranged a scene in which a policeman sacrifices himself in the middle half of the film. The film changed directly from comedy to sensational drama. The emotional transition was so straightforward that it even made the audience feel embarrassed. .
The focus of this movie is still the battle of wits between the police and drug gangs, and its comic effect is brought out spontaneously through the characters' performances, which is a kind of extreme danger in situations. Relax. And this is also an instinctive reaction of people, especially the police, how to avoid showing any trace when drug traffickers are suspicious. At that time, the drug dealer stood outside the car and asked, "What are you doing?"
The purpose is very clear, which is to completely doubt your existence. The people in the car must be extremely nervous at this time. They are thinking of countermeasures, and a shout from behind makes them They got out of this predicament with the same sentence: "What are you doing?" But then there was a 180-degree change, and the topic turned to the issue of inventory. The gangster's interest was cleverly diverted.
This film does not follow the reasoning approach like "Detective Chinatown", but focuses on comedy elements, mainly indoor jokes, supplemented by action scenes. There is almost no suspense. It's okay to relax and have fun, but don't look too closely. The villains are relatively weak. The script is basically Hong Kong-produced Wong Pak-ming's New Year style, and the scene setting is quite down-to-earth.
