Film evaluation:

The cruel and ups and downs of the film "Unknown" seems to be a tragic epic created by director Cheng Er. In the background time and space bearing China's heavy historical memory, we witnessed the light of faith of those who gave their lives for justice, the cunning and treachery of aggressors and accomplices, and different undercurrents and mysteries collided and stirred in the film.

As a spy war suspense film, Unknown has grown into a unique aesthetic story under the control of Cheng Er. "Namelessness" is not only a mystery, but also a potential explanation and hint.

At the beginning of the film, Tony Leung Chiu Wai is in a deep and exquisite space, with spotless leather shoes and a fitted suit. His eyes looked over, but he couldn't see where his eyes ended up. He can't see whether his mood is confused or sad. He just vaguely felt that such eyes told a huge unknown.

It's been a long time since I met Tony Leung Chiu Wai's eyes again. In this process, this kind of look seems to be printed in the audience's mind, which makes the audience miss and feel uneasy all the time in the plot flow, and constantly splicing various possibilities with the plot. The director uses flashback, positive narration and staggered time and space.

Sometimes it is parallel to the audience, and sometimes it "lures" the audience into the whirlpool, testing the audience's logical thinking through careful structure and editing techniques.

The actors also deeply fit in with the story and sang a torch-like ode to life in a depressed atmosphere. Tony Leung Chiu Wai's performance is calm and relaxed, more advanced and more strategic than Infernal Affairs. And Abreu is a completely different type. He is young and tough, with a murderous look on his brow.

In the big era, he looked like a dust, an inconspicuous "subordinate", but in the game of the Secret Service, his blade and fist seemed to vent his inner concealment.

In binary movies, characters are abstracted and symbolically refined. They are well dressed, elegant and calm, but they don't let the characters lose their agility in life, but they have an artistic precision.

Complete a kind of history and poetry more efficiently. Through his unique language, light and shadow, color, perspective and voice, Director Cheng Er completed the spiritual reconstruction of the "nameless man" in his historical view.

Compared with the "perverse rebellion" in The Romance of Death, The Unknown is presented in a slightly peaceful way as a tribute, but the audience can taste many mysteries from the hidden third perspective or even a wave of tie changes. In the end, the audience will remember an extremely gloomy picture in the film-the land bombed by bombs is full of gray ruins.

Black smoke enveloped the whole sky, and the stiff bones of people and dogs lay in the cold rain. It was a high-altitude picture, squeezed into the "historical page" of that era. However, people will remember because of the movie "Nobody" that there is a vivid life in that vast space, which stopped the smoke of death and saved the sinking of history.
