The Assassin Comments

    What kind of rotten assassin, to kill, not to kill, not tired after two trips. All of them are like wood, with facial paralysis and not talking, and there is no chance to force them. The beauty of the costume setting and photography is useful, and those who only talk about the emotional appeal and don't give a smooth plot are all hooligans! Where is the undercover editor who got in here? What kind of mess of the editing. It's ugly to cry. I especially like to watch martial arts movies that fly...

    Instead, I thought of "The Romance of the Goddess and Goddess". The film presents a realistic and imagined Tang Dynasty. The excitement is more focused on the visual, the aristocratic dignity of the interior is in sharp contrast with the natural scenery of the exterior. The details are excellent, including subtle sound effects. The lonely Nie Yinniang and her little ambiguity, the film itself also has a strong sense of loneliness. In fact, the film can be more elegant, with fewer lines, and...

    Without him, but not happy. If you are not happy but go against your heart and say very happy, your second uncle will spit on...

    People who give low scores say that they are not used to listening to Taiwanese accents, but these Taiwanese accents have made good martial arts and ancient styles, and creators with standard and ordinary accents have come up with things that are much weaker than the soft Taiwanese accents. Come out and ruin...

    A movie, no matter how good the shooting skills are, even if the picture is very artistic, even if the connotation is deep, but as long as the majority of the audience can't understand, dislike or find it very dull, it is not a good...

    I really can't bear to have a heart, and finally believe in the existence of the "water army" business. I really don't understand what the director wants to express. The elementary school Chinese teacher told me the three elements of the story, time, place, and characters. The director’s seckill on the place is nothing short of a show. "urgent? "Dying You" may be more suitable for the title. Compatriots, take Wanglaoji, or you will get...

    Not a martial arts movie, but Hou Xiaoxian. A turbulent story could have been filmed so that Viagra was flying all over the sky, but Hou Xiaoxian chose to use the most calm and restrained film language, and his gestures set off the clothes of Tang Dynasty. Both the exquisite meticulous painting and the white space of the freehand painting are really regrettable in the film, in fact it is deep...

    Hou Xiaoxian has no intention of shooting simple personnel matters. He took pictures of the scenery after the people were gone, and the people of the world after seeing the scenery...

    The sense of form is still there, but the characters have become a deadly shell. Hou did not solve the problem of Nie Yinniang's own confusion as the core, and how to coordinate the Tang Dynasty aristocratic legend and the naturalistic style. As a result, the inner core floating outside the image can only be explained by words; the visual ritual sense of the nobility and the naturalistic style hinder each other, so that the performance is extremely unnatural outside the words and actions, and...

    Slower than slow, Hou Xiaoxian's world has no rivers and lakes and martial arts. The short legend of the assassin has become eternal and timeless between the landscape and palace curtains. The charm is always hidden outside the painting, a dialogue in which the listener cannot be seen, a door that can only be heard, and the "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" that he has repeatedly read for two months is also melted into the speech and action. The tip of the iceberg without a...
