action duo
"Emergency Rescue"
Director: Lin Chaoxian
Starring: Peng Yuyan/Wang Yanlin/Xin Zhilei/Lan Yingying/Wang Yutian
Release Date: 2020-12-18
Recommended index: ★ ★ ★ ★
"Emergency Rescue" was originally scheduled to be released on the first day of the new year next year. Director Lin Chaoxian re-edited during the epidemic and raised the file to December 18 to celebrate the New Year with the audience at the end of the year.
This is another action blockbuster after Lin Chaoxian and later. It is the first maritime rescue film in Chinese. It is based on a real rescue incident and tells the story of the Chinese maritime rescue team saving lives in the battle between water and fire.
For the fourth time, Lin Chaoxian and Peng Yuyan have collaborated, and the biggest attraction is the four rescue scenes: the capsized and sunken drilling platform, the head of the oil truck rushing down the river, the fully loaded passenger plane plunging into the sea, and the serial explosion of the offshore oil tanker. This is also Lin Chaoxian’s most invested and largest-scale film to date.
"Emergency Rescue" will "collide" with "Wonder Woman 1984" head-on. Whether it can break through the genre theme, shoot the disaster scene with a shocking momentum, and create the heroic spirit of the rescue team is the key to detonating this "blockbuster".
"The Bomb Locker 2"
Director: Qiu Litao
Starring: Andy Lau/Liu Qingyun/Ni Ni
Release Date: 2020-12-24

From November to next year’s Spring Festival, Andy Lau launched the big-screen "screen domination" mode!
Before playing a music conductor, and after exchanging lives with Xiao Yang, what would Andy Lau in "The Bomb Locker 2" bring out?
The previous work achieved good reputation and box office results, and won 7 nominations at the 37th Hong Kong Film Awards. The sequel is still directed by "Ghost Talent" Qiu Litao, and will launch a new story and explosive upgrade scenes. Andy Lau’s character identity also has a major breakthrough.
Andy Lau wants to explain the complex fate of a bomb disposal expert involved in the bombing in the state of losing a leg. On the one hand, he has to be hunted by Liu Qingyun, who is also a bomb disposal expert, and on the other hand, he has to be commanded by his ex-girlfriend Ni, who is a police officer.
This is also the cooperation between Andy Lau and Liu Qingyun after a lapse of 18 years. The "two heroes" are combined, and they look forward to seeing good stories and rich characters.
Fantasy Shuangpin
"Red Fox Scholar"
Director: Song Haolin/Ilqi
Starring: Chen Linong/Li Xian/Hanikezi
Release Date: 2020-12-04
Recommended index: ★ ★ ★ ★
"Red Fox Scholar" was born with two groups of movie viewers: one was the reader fans of the original novel "Spring River Flower Moon Night"; Chen Linong played the scholar and Li Xian played the fox demon. The double male protagonist was set, and the actor fans would also come to support the scene.
Of course, the film has more attractions at the production level: this is the new "demon series" that will be launched later. "Father of Huba" Xu Chengyi is the executive producer, the famous musician Hisashi Rang produces the soundtrack, and Wang Jiawei’s royal artist Qiu Weiming is the art designer. He has made great efforts in visual and auditory.
The fox demon originally wanted to kill the scholar, and carefully set up a "group of demons" serial plan, but in the end unexpectedly became good friends with him. The story of the film is simple, the atmosphere is relaxed and happy, fantasy + comedy type, proper New Year’s Eve standard.
"Qingya Ji"
Director: Guo Jingming
Starring: Zhao Youting/Deng Lun/Wang Ziwen/Chun Xia/Wang Duo/
Release Date: 2020-12-25
Recommended index: ★ ★ ★ ★
After Guo Jingming launched the director’s new film "Qing Yaji", will it exceed his previous level? This should be the biggest discussion that will be triggered after the film is released.
"Sunshine" is based on the classic novel "Onmyoji" by the Japanese writer Nightpillow Tapir, who also served as a scriptwriter consultant.
Zhao Youting plays the mage Qingming, and Deng Lun plays the samurai Boya. The story focuses on two people cracking bizarre cases, which is also Deng Lun’s first big-screen male lead.
The all-star cast, gorgeous visual effects, and Guo Jingming’s always-powerful promotion model have aroused popularity in waves, but whether the film can follow the series and create another high-quality Oriental fantasy blockbuster is the audience’s greatest expectation.
New Year’s Eve three songs
