In Du Qifeng's works, the traditional theme of love has become another universal feature. Although "Dragon and Phoenix Fight" is simple, it also sets enough room for plot fluctuation. There are many humorous and lively jokes in the story. It is also a romantic film, which makes people think about love.
(The above is Qianlong. Com and People's Daily Online) Long Fengdou's style is messy, the theme is deliberately artificial, the plot is illogical, the camera is inexplicable, and the performance is stale. This is a film that is at a loss from beginning to end. I thought it was a light and humorous comedy, but in the end it slipped into the heavy topic of proving love by death. I thought it was a thief film full of wisdom and fun, but the tricks of the thief couple who claimed to have IQs as high as 180 and 160 were outrageous: stealing jewelry is the fastest person who desperately grabs it in the street; Stealing a ring is stealing a key from the pocket of an innocent owner in a conversation, and then burglary; Stealing red wine is stealing. These are just street thefts, not even "thieves".
There are contradictions in the main plot that are difficult to justify. For example, Mr. Thief, there are too many ways to prevent his wife from getting married, but he chose the most time-consuming and laborious one. Since Mr. Thief, who was terminally ill two years ago, chose to divorce for fear that his wife would be sad, why did he reappear two years later? Details are often overlooked, and police officers who are responsible for tracking down the theft of expensive red wine will happily swallow the red wine in the hands of suspects.
Looking closely, all these far-fetched films are related to the desire to make comedy movies, but he refuses to give up Du's style. Too sharp and frugal editing makes the narrative unclear on the one hand, and makes the funny "burden" insufficient on the other; Funny characters (gay private detectives, insurance company investigators) have nothing to do with the plot, and they are stiffly embedded, which makes people laugh and cry; Regardless of the realistic logic, the same scene is repeated, and the meaning of the trick is beyond words; The most serious scene in the whole film appeared. When faced with the dilemma of "where is the thief or where is the jewelry", the thief's wife chose the former. At this point, the profound theme of the film collateral finally surfaced after a long absurd plot. Unfortunately, the absurd plot is incompatible with the profound theme-just when this problem has not been solved, the film throws a specious ending: Is Mr. Thief dead after all? In this way, the audience just sitting in danger found that the film didn't even have a trace of seriousness at the end.
