Calm Down is a plot crime film directed by Li Xiaofeng, supervised by Bo Huang and starring Zhang Yu, Song Jia and Wang Yanhui. 15 years ago, the top student Song Hao was replaced by the mayor's son. He was very angry and went to the mayor's house to ask for an explanation. He didn't expect to stray into his neighbor's house and accidentally stabbed him. Song Jianfei, the father of Song Hao who arrived later, worried about the revelation and killed his neighbor as soon as possible.

Song Hao didn't know the truth about his neighbor's death and thought he did it himself. He was frightened and had to fly away, leaving the original life track. Fifteen years later, when Song Hao returned to his hometown, everything seemed calm. The reunion with his old classmate Pan gave him a long-lost light in his life. Song Hao decided to open the scar that he dared not touch for fifteen years and complete a seemingly impossible self-redemption.

Film evaluation

The story of this film is out of tune with its title. Although the title is calm, there is an undercurrent inside. Calm Down, to a certain extent, continues the style and characteristics of Li Xiaofeng's last work, Rebirth from the Fire. The story begins with a murder case, spanning decades, from secret to truth, and it combines many elements such as crime, suspense and love.

But at the same time, it is different from the previous work. The murder is just the fuse, and there is not much suspense in the story itself. This time, the director paid more attention to the domino effect of life caused by the substitution of an excellent student, and his fate was constantly rewritten and dragged forward. Putting one's personal destiny in the environment of the great era presents a life variable and helplessness in a state of out of control.
