Film micro-review: Double Tigers Slaying Dragons
Chaya 2021-12-30 17:21:45
A feature film dressed in a western coat. Traditional stages such as gun battles and fights are pitiful. This film tells the story of a moment when the American West moves from chaos and disorder to a peaceful legal system. Bandits and rangers have gradually become history. Although democracy and the legal system are fragile, the wheels of history are always rolling forward. There is no one. Blockable. What is not satisfied is that the real age of the two pig horns is much older than the characters, and it is easy to play.
