week7&8 HK CINEMA

in week 6 and week 7 we talk about HK movie. The symbol about Hk films are "kong fu"and "gun fu".

my reflection about hk cinema

the main character in Hk movie always be gangsters. they are might not good guys. they might be called "son of bitch "by other guys. but they have a gold heart. and conflict must be something push he no way to go then he argue in himself. one day he notice he is a hero. he can save this world although he is a small character.

when i talk about hk movie i always relate to a world-- exaggerate. some hk movies are really exaggerate. directors like using gun in hk movie so you can see gun in every senses start to end of movie. the most funny thing is that, this gun the character uses he even doesn't turn the bullets. so when you watching hk gangster film, you will see the characters walking into the location where bad guys lives. then they take out guns opening fire."bang bang bang bang ..."all bad guy dead but our main character is lossless. how could it happen, but, actually, it is happen in the movie.
in 1990s it is the best ages for hk films. there product a lot of good directors and actors in that ages, such as jackie chen, donnie yen, john woo. they like playing with Chinese tradition kong fu and show them on the screen. and there are also a lot of hk film company to support them. so they get enough budget and passion to make film.

hk movie get a huge successful in that age. i still remember when i was a child. i always see a lot of teenagers they copy the make up and characters's dress even their the way they walk and speak from the movie. they learned how to smoke, how to fight just like characters show in movie"young and dangerous". each boy has a dream is own a gun. they all believe they are hero, one day they can save this world and find a beautiful girl love her than abandon her. although it is sounds funny now, but that is the memory of that age of people.
