The chaos manager knows that the shootings are unrealistic, but there is a logic for them

“Havoc”, the new movement movie from the author /director Gareth Evans, was on the list of the most expected year’s films in the movie for about four years. when We have first learned that Tom Hardy will cooperate with the director behind “The Raid” For a movie about a trip to the corrupt lower world, we felt overwhelmed. But thanks to Covid, strikes, and some good new schedule problems, they take much longer than we have already expected to see the movie. The movie is finally on Netflix starting today, and although miles may vary with how they appear as a whole (you can Read /Review the full movie for “HaVOC” here) The movement addicted to the movement will be magic by many amazing movie groups – although the number of lead does not always match what you see on the screen.

I recently signed with Evans to talk to him about the design of that SetpiecesIncluding the climatic confrontation that occurs in the hunting hut in Walker (Tom Hardy). You may also expect from the high -end Action Action Action Action, the shots begin to fly quickly and angry, as the characters converge on the site, the whole place and many bad guys tear them completely while the final explosion rings.

Evans told me: “What was really enjoyable in this sequence is the design side, because it is alongside Jude Bouer, my life coordinator, we examine each sequence, and we examine every small rhythm from it.” “Not only with regard to the camera and editing the points and movement itself, but also where things come from. So we knew that we were commending John Wu, Renjo Lam and Johnny to this film, but when it came to the weapon in the hunting hut, we knew that we would exaggerate a number of lead that could be decent inside the Mag.”

Hong Kong cinema is clear in the way in which the “ruin” characters launch their weapons: If one snapshot is launched, this is a good bet that dozens will follow, until a clip is completely emptied and the body is presented to the other end of the other. It is a more than necessary approach where the excessive nature of the weapon is the point; This is not realistic, in itself, but if you see films like “hard boiled” or “The Killer”, I have seen this kind of things before.

Evans completely realizes that there is no stopping hikers who will lift their glasses and “well, in fact” this exchange of fire because they refer to the amount of ammunition that was fired from these weapons to an extent that could be possible in the real world. However, although he and his team cleared the numbers a little on this front, there is a way for their madness that viewers can follow if they choose to. Evans explained:

“Every time the characters empty a pistol, they throw them away and are recycled and seized another person. So what this means is that we had to discover and organize any triple members who fall into the windows and come to the rooms, and what weapons you will get with them, so that we can do so logically. They shoot all over the place! They use it.
