Watching this so-called Chinese Special Force crap is like getting the root canal dental treatment without anesthetic procedure. It's very painful to watch a film spent so many manpower and money for nothing. I often thought why most of all the mega-budget movie productions out of Asia, including China, Hong Kong, India and other Asian countries always turned out so lame and so childish shallow and pathetic. I think mostly it's because their screenplays sucked big time, the dialog sucked, the casting sucked, and worst of all, the directing sucked.
Why after having borrowed so heavily from many foreign movies yet still turned out so lame?
1) Just like the stupid "Strike Back" TV series, a camera seemed to be always followed every movement of the characters from so many different angles for the control center to monitor so easily. It's just looked so unconvincingly stupid.
2) In order to tone down a fully macho testosterone crappy movie, the stupid production would so stupid put one totally unnecessary, highly impossible female character in it. So in "Blackhat", we got a totally useless and purposeless heroine to play a very absurd unnecessary role. This "Wolf Warriors" is even worse, they put a woman with bee-stung lips to play as the leader of the so-called toughest of all toughest Chinese military forces. Give me a break, will you?
3) When you in the hot pursuit of the unseen enemy in the jungle, why a) everybody still holding their assault rifles in front of their eyes? How this stupid gun holding gesture would speed up their chasing speed? b) they never spread out but grouped so tightly together, making them such an big easy target and never got a chance to react?
4) Why once all of the Chinese military films would inject so much unconvincing patriotic slogans?
5) Why the stupid production team would be so stupid enough to add computerized wolf pack attack the so-called 'Wolf Warriors"? Where's the brotherhood, man?
6) Why all the cameo uniforms looked so new?
7) It's very tiresome to watch what we have seen in this movie, like the realistic Chinese military forces, endless trainings, rehearsals, would-be imaginary fighting, small or large scale; or even computerized strategic rehearsals are always and the only stuff that Chinese military forces are doing everyday. It's so formulaic and so painful to watch again and again.
8) The soundtrack was over-the-top annoying and unnecessary most of the time.
This is another self-indulgent, self-righteous, self-pompous...a B movie styled film trying so hard to glorify the Chinese Communist 'Liberation' Army.
