I've never posted a movie review, but this time I will
I re-watched the director Zhang Yimou's cut version of "Hero", only to realize that I misunderstood this film too much. When I was a child, I just thought the picture was very good. After watching it again today, I realized that this film is definitely the best Chinese film I have ever seen. A movie, and a movie that only Chinese people can really understand. It is true that there is not much dialogue in the film, because Chinese culture is all about understanding, it is useless to talk too much, and it is understanding. Moreover, with the support of the picture, many things can be understood without saying anything. Li Lianjie was an assassin and met the King of Qin because he killed the three assassins that the King of Qin was most worried about. He told the King of Qin the story of how he killed the three assassins. The first is Donnie Yen. The place of the duel, there is no obvious color, accompanied by the piano and selves, there is rain, and there is etiquette between the warriors, which all imply the confidant between them. In the end, Jet Li won. He won quickly and skillfully. Colorless and skillful, this is the first layer of the film. Then the core of the film begins, Jet Li tells how to kill Liang Chaowei and Maggie Cheung. The red Zhao Guozi Hall, calligraphy, is the representative of Chinese culture. It says that calligraphy and sword art can be understood. Just like the Qin se and swordsmanship that he said in the confrontation with Donnie Yen, Chinese culture itself is about thinking and thinking, and all things are unified. , and this figured out by understanding. Red here represents desire, human desire, because of human desire, the two can kill each other so that Jet Li can take advantage of each other, and finally defeat them one by one. Red, human desire (possessiveness, jealousy, revenge), the second layer of the film. King Qin said that you underestimated me, so he started to tell what he thought the three people were. The film begins with blue as the theme, blue represents rationality (conspiracy) and represents affection. Therefore, Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung used their lives to accomplish the plan of Jet Li's assassination for the sake of their confidantes and the love of the country.
