九龙城寨之围城 Twilight Of The Warriors: Walled In

01 June 2024

"九龙城寨之围城" 应该是这20年来最优秀的港片了!!

剧情非常紧凑, 125分钟 没冷场, 没疑惑.
选角有惊喜. 除了古天乐和林峰领衔主演外, 也难得看得到一群明星 (如洪金宝, 郭富城, 任贤齐, 黄德斌)出演几个关键要角. 最喜欢的始终是龙哥和城寨四少 (信一, 十二少, 四仔, 陈家洛)之间的情与义.

虽然我没有去过历史上的九龙城寨, 但从许多文章, 报道, 照片, 影片读过和看过这个神秘且传奇的"三不管"地区的历史背景, 人文与生活风貌. 可以看出团队非常用心的还原九龙城寨的容貌和社区文化与风土民情. 城寨与启德机场之间危险的距离也多次透过不同的方式被强调.

如无意外, 下届香港金像奖的最佳电影, 最佳导演, 最佳美术指导, 最佳武术指导 这几个奖 应该会是囊中物. 林峰也有望封帝.

喜欢; 非常值回票价.

"Twilight Of The Warriors: Walled In" is the best Hong Kong movie produced in the past 20years!!

At 125min , it is an action-packed crime action film with a good plot and character development. Casting is excellent. Besides starring Louis Koo and Raymond Lam, the movie also featured superstars like Sammo Hung, Aaron Kwok, Richie Jen, Kenny Wong for several key roles. In particular, I love the brotherhood between Cyclone and the "4 protectors" of the Walled City.

Although I have not been to Kowloon Walled City, the history geek in me had read rather in-depth on its historical background, politics, culture and everyday life through articles and documentaries. It is quite obvious that the production team had did intensive research, which enables them to create realistic set and everyday life of the Walled City. Even its distance to Kai Tak Airport is emphasized multiple times using different metaphors.

I wont be surprised that "Twilight Of The Warriors: Walled In" will bag the Best Film, Best Director, Best Art Direction, Best Action Choreography awards in the next Hong Kong Film Award. In fact, Raymond Lam might even be crowned Best Actor.

I love this film; worth the bucks spent (on the ticket).
