skylee Posted June 12, 2004 at 02:22 PM Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 at 02:22 PM I saw it today and like it a lot. The 8-minute shot at the beginning of the film is impressive. It is directed by Johnny To, who also made "PTU".

skylee Posted June 13, 2004 at 12:39 AM Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 at 12:39 AM 專業影評: 大事件 石琪 《大事件》有幽默 果然,又是省港旗兵來港犯罪,匪徒都說國語普通話,而說粵語和英語的香港警隊慌忙展開大搜捕。 《大事件》並非杜琪峰的奇峰之作,只是作大的拼湊,但他目前狀態當旺,拍得緊湊爽快,又在火爆中有幽默感,不會悲情慘痛,頗有娛樂性。 增添新變化 《大事件》可以說是 20年前麥當雄導演《省港旗兵》的新世紀簡化版,警匪沒有在港九各處追擊火併,而集中在九龍大角嘴一組舊式住宅大廈內對峙交戰。 好在細節生動,又有警隊大陣仗,採取直擊式實感拍法。今次主演明星任賢齊、陳慧琳、張家輝等不是杜琪峰舊拍檔,這樣新組合至少不會熟口熟面,增添了新變化。 此片聰明地翻炒舊橋,主體簡單而枝節不少。片中旗兵就分為兩幫,同時被警方圍攻,大賊頭任賢齊和大殺手尤勇必須同舟共濟。警方亦有內部分化,女將陳慧琳出位擔正,搶了上司風頭,下層警探張家輝卻不聽指揮,那些層級關係很妙。 那大廈的狹窄走廊迂迴曲折,鏡頭跟著警匪鑽來鑽去,碰到街坊鄰里,使緊張情景亦有親切生活感和環境特色。警匪鬥法也發展出曲折轉變,保持吸引力。 甚具諷刺性 但《大事件》最可觀並非槍戰惡鬥,而是另外兩個微妙的「戰場」。其一是傳媒時代的警方要和自由新聞、自由言論鬥法,進行「傳媒之戰」,否則當局做到最好也會被人狠批臭罵。 片中這個戰場很有諷刺性,幾乎比破案更重要,這是80年代《省港旗兵》時期的香港想像不到的。 其二是兩幫旗兵躲入大廈內一個住家,脅持屋主林雪及一對小兒女,林雪驚惶地「盡量配合」,很好笑。今次杜琪峰還學了葉偉信《爆裂刑警》優異的煮飯戲,匪徒與良民「有緣」同桌吃飯,在危機中享受難得的家庭樂趣。雖然仿效,但也妙趣橫生。 至於槍戰場面,由頭到尾很多,然而虛張聲勢,缺乏逼真的殺傷力。以杜琪峰的《鎗火》水平,他當然會拍凌厲槍戰,今次大概故意避免血腥狂暴,以幽默趣味為主。然而警匪在射程範圍內不斷開槍駁火,子彈橫飛,卻經常射不中人,實在太不「專業」了。 最後陳慧琳不通知警隊幫手,獨自追蹤大賊,亦不合情理。《大事件》只是遊戲之作,不少地方好玩,整體就不宜認真看待。 資料來源:明報 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
