This is a complete narrative that creatively adapts the classic Chinese allegory 'Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils.' The protagonist Chen Guilin, embodying a 'chaotic good' moral stance, dispenses vigilante justice before achieving redemption through submitting to legal punishment—'a life for a life'—a resolution deeply resonant with Chinese values. The film excels cinematographically, with particular praise for its editing and score. Though lacking formal music theory knowledge, I found myself profoundly synced with the composers' intent.
Initially, some plot points gave me pause: that policeman's unexplained benevolence toward Chen Guilin, the mother's choice of suicide, or how Chen Guilin kept fighting after a abdominal stab wound. But on reflection, these all serve the film's internal logic—stylized choices prioritizing thematic cohesion over rigid realism.
