How is "Slaying the Wolf 2" different from the first season?

The villains played by Louis Koo and Zhang Jin are very evil and indeed very exciting, but there is still something missing. Compared with the boss Hong Ye in the first film, the scene in the prison where Hong Ye is really wonderful. He talks softly to his wife on the phone, but then he abuses Zhang Zhiyao’s fingers. The contrast between hardness and softness makes the character very interesting. Three-dimensional. Mr. Hong also has weaknesses. He also has a tender side. His wife is infertile and it is difficult to have children, which is really a big problem. This is related to the psychological expectations of the audience. They initially think you are a bad guy, but even if the bad guy has a shining point or a hint of warmth, they will feel that this person is not heinous. On the contrary, if a positive character has some flaws, the audience will feel that he is not a heinous person. I will have mixed feelings and examine it for a long time. This is also the characterization technique of the first film. There are no outright good guys and bad guys. The police abuse lynching and embezzle stolen money, but the purpose is good; the bad guys also have their own difficulties and have no choice but to go all the way. The villain played by Louis Koo is so insane that he attacks his own brother at the end of his rope, but could he show more of the relationship between him and his brother to highlight that the fear of death outweighs the power of family affection? Besides, Zhang Jin, the boss, is a bit cut corners. He has a sense of immediacy like Yuhuatian in "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate". He is very fierce, but he is a fast man. The final battle is not on the same level as the ups and downs of "The Raid", and it is not entirely enjoyable. .

All in all, Sha Po Lang 2 is a very cost-effective action movie in recent times. It is worth revisiting the action movie in the future. It has outstanding advantages and obvious shortcomings. The first one has become a classic, but I hope it won’t become the swan song.
