      quiet beauty chaos goodness

      The topic of gang robbery is very good. Everyone is a thief. There are thieves here. The so-called villain Zhao Run only relies on his own wisdom to maximize his own interests in the context of the times. Perhaps the film itself did not deliberately create a distinction between good and evil. Zhao Run's "bad" is also bad like a nobleman, with the nobility of a noble, and the justice of the stone is also full of market spirit. Saying that this is the Korean version of the Water Margin may just...

      bad movie

      This is a brain-damaged movie, vulgar, boring, and you can't watch it halfway through, scolding yourself while watching it. It's just too bad, the plot is vulgar, the costumes and characters make me want to kill these stupid thieves, and I pretend to be a hero. It's really unbelievable. On the contrary, the anti-No. 1 in the film makes people feel good. There is no way, the screenwriter wants him to die. This screenwriter is also an idiot. The character design is completely incompatible with...

      <The era of civil unrest> Film review

      I watched this movie because it was archived in the Tencent Video Hollywood member area, and it was a free weekend. To be honest, I didn’t report much enthusiasm for this movie at first, and the rating was only 6.4 points, but there have been no movie updates recently. In addition, I was busy at home, so I decided to spend two hours.... - This is a foreign film (Korea), the background: in the feudal period, the peasants were oppressed, exploited, and their lives were extremely hard. The story...

      thoughts on background music

      For this film, I couldn't help registering an account to speak, just for the background music. Everyone says it's an imitation of Westerns, Django, what a bunch of incomprehensible names. But when I listened to the beginning, an old Hong Kong movie "Eagle Claw Iron Shirt" immediately popped into my mind. The soundtrack is absolutely the same. Just now, Du Niang, the 1977 version of the movie is indeed correct.

      Interested friends go and see! It seems that the director is paying tribute...

      Jiang Dongyuan is fine. I went to college and he played a college student. He was still so young after I graduated many years ago. The logic of the film is worrying, is the monk really stupid, sacrifices hundreds of people for the lives of a few people, the woman who shoots arrows has no brains, and the important children should be carried on their backs for fear that the villain will not be able to see them. The film was so bad, but in the end, he was moved by Jiang Dongyuan. He did so many...

      It's a decent commercial film, and it's played very mediocrely. In the decisive battle scene, I began to explore your son's humanity, and it collapsed violently. Only the soundtrack is...

    Evaluation action

    The film focuses on the confrontation between good and evil. There are a lot of confrontation scenes and cruel and tragic scenes in the film. The audience all pointed out that they knew the content of the film early, but the director's unique shooting method did not disappoint, and the content also Easier to understand than other costume films.
