The Untouchables is neither a romance movie wrapped in espionage garb nor an espionage movie with love elements, but more like a combination of espionage and romance. The higher realm that the movie pursues should also be the perfect fusion of espionage and love, both the skeleton of espionage and the flesh and blood of love, and through the double deduction of espionage and love, sublimation of human nature and the thinking of the times. What the movie wants to express is not only the inaccessibility of love, but also the pursuit and inaccessibility of a state of life and social ideals. (From reddit)
The movie "Untouchable" tells a love story of a pair of lovers in the 1930s and 1940s, with a grand background that gives the movie a deep and wide space, and a series of elements such as fiery shooting scenes, mysterious and unpredictable espionage, and the secular legend of old Shanghai, etc., which are all superior in the movie, and don't lose the momentum of the blockbuster. Some viewers even said after watching "Untouchable" that it has the feeling of a Hollywood World War II blockbuster. What is remarkable is that under the environment of war, the movie's expression of personal feelings does not fall into symbolization and lead to thin and flat. The big scenes presented in the movie are all made with heavy money, and the movie uses a realistic shooting method to reproduce the history of the Republic of China, and the real guns are bound to capture a large number of moviegoers. (From Xinhua Entertainment) "Untouchable" has been reduced to a romance film that is not amazing, eliminating the story of espionage and filling it with the content of love, daring to take the skeleton of "what is love" out of love, and using Fu Jingnian's faith in espionage as a support to reverse the love and the plot over and over again. Sun Honglei replaced the youthful idol in "Untouchable" with an unprecedented "emoji", but it is just a utopian romantic reunion implanted again and again against the backdrop of a brutal era, but it is just an attempt to market the niche tango dance as the popular square dance of the amazons for the box office.
