One of the characteristics of "Reign of Assassins" is that the characters can stand up. Behind the brutality of the big S, there is erotic desire. Shawn Yue's see-through makes the rudder imply ordinary. Behind the power of Xueqi Wang is the weak, and can be in a short period of time. It is not easy to explain the ins and outs of each character in a movie of more than an hour. In contrast, Ah Sheng, played by Jung Woo Sung, is the most awkward character. The front and back contrast is too great, and the transition and foreshadowing are not enough. Another feature of "Reign of Assassins" is that the story line is complicated. The story of "Reign of Assassins" is more complicated in the costume action movie. If the costume action movies I watched have gone through the process of great directors showing off their skills, gathering celebrities, and having good sentences but not good chapters, then "Reign of Assassins" tells a story sincerely and solidly. Although there are still faults in the story, I still feel a lot of sincerity.
The film is relatively delicate in terms of photography, action, story, etc. There are no major loopholes, but it lacks fresh things, which seems a bit conventional. In the Yeoh Choo Kheng and Jung Woo Sung literary and opera parts, the rhythm control also needs to be controlled. Consider.
is a change in appearance, which is very similar to John Woo’s "Faces", and the couple’s identity settings are very similar to "Smiths",ubiquitous John Woo style in the film gives People are impressed.
On the basis of emphasizing commercial elements, "Reign of Assassins" also inherits the essence of traditional martial arts films. Although there is no poetic martial arts scene in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", its performance of swordsmanship and martial arts is full of fantasy and entertainment.
Without resorting to strong visual effects, nor imitating the style of other martial arts blockbuster films, this movie gave new life to martial arts films that struggled to break through. The biggest compliment to "Reign of Assassins" is that it is not only like a classic martial arts novel, but also not simply retro. It absolutely created its own unique new style.
