      Aesthetic doesn't know how to get tired

      This film has been out for many years, but speaking of it, I only watched it half a month ago. I don't know if it's because my aesthetic level has improved over the years, or this film is really overdone.
      As soon as I came up, the background was so huge, the sense of history was so deep, and it made it so epic and mythical, and in the end it was like this... The plot of the routine didn't explain anything clearly, what happened to the broken ring?
      After watching it, there is nothing...

      Undress the Valkyrie

      In 2003, "The Lord of the Rings 3" was released, the end of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and the pinnacle of magical epic movies. In 2004, this "Ring of the Nibelung" was produced, which was so much behind the reform and opening up of "The Lord of the Rings" in terms of special effects. From the opera "The Ring of the Nibelung" to the novel "Lord of the Rings", from Wagner to Tolkien, it is unclear. The film's five-mao special effects and moderate screenwriting do not affect the...

      Myths are always desirable

      The hero slays the dragon and slays the dragon's blood and is invulnerable, but unfortunately a leaf leaves him with a fatal weakness; the infatuated person is eaten by the potion and forgets the one he loves; the queen has the power of the gods in her belt, and only wants to marry someone who can defeat her; covetousness Treasure and beauty always end miserably. This is myth, beautiful and romantic, this is epic, tragic and heroic. Norse mythology does have the beauty of power, and this film's...

      Ring of the Nibelung

      Nordic mythology is an important part of European culture as a culture that was not poisoned by Christianity. Influence. Wagner's opera "The Ring" is a 14-hour masterpiece, and this TV movie managed to tell the story in two hours, which is very easy for the audience who want to know the story of the Ring.

       

      Although it is a TV movie, because the story itself is very beautiful, and the filming is very careful, the script selection and various technical aspects are of a certain...

      Let the magic fill the Lang Lang holiday

      Fascinating from the beginning, the little prince was rescued and escaped from death, paving the way for the development of the next plot. It didn't take long for the dragon's eyes to appear for a moment, which made people think of how much effort it would take to kill the dragon, and believed that this was the final climax. I never thought that it took three to five minutes for an adult prince to slay the dragon with three or five knives. At this time, the movie has not been halfway through,...

      At first, I thought this film was amazing, combining all kinds of Thor, Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter elements... Later I found out that it was a very bloody story, but the blood was so heartwarming... The queen is such a good girl, and the male protagonist is so ugly. I can't get on it (return to my little Zhengtai!!!)... Another serious problem is... they all speak English... very...
