Edited just fine

After reading it, it's better than expected.

As a fan who has watched the 8th edition of the story of Zhongchen Tibetan, I think it's not too bad to count this film as the 9th edition. After all, the outline of the story is probably filmed, and it is still different from the rumors like "The Four Valleys".

At the beginning of the film, there are various violations. The strangest thing is that the ages of Asanouchi Touto and Kira are just reversed. It is estimated that because of the addition of the emotional line of Li Shinu and Shibasaki Yukio, the lord of the Ako domain had to be filmed as an old man.

Grandpa Qian doesn't look like a bad guy. Like "Zatoichi", he can't support half of the sky. He can't do anything. This is the fate of a herbivorous man.

Rinko Kikuchi's makeup can really make people cry, and she turns into a dragon at the back, which is a bit better.

The "Pine Corridor Incident" was filmed as a witchcraft, and the guests were replaced by generals. This, this, many complicated backgrounds were all simplified, probably to take care of the American audience. But changing the location to Ako Domain is basically to save the cost of setting the scenery, right? There are three scenes in the whole film: Ako Domain, Dejima and Monster Forest. As a magic film, it is a bit shabby.

In the second half of the performance, especially after returning from the monster forest and the blood oath, the story finally returned to the right track, and it was much more comfortable to watch. The posture of Captain Sanada looks all kinds of eye-catching. After all, he has been a trainee for decades, and it is not the same as Li Jinu's cosplay. It's a pity that the dance scene passed by in a flash. I haven't watched Uncle Sanada dance for many years, okay?

The most worthy of Xiaohonghua's commendation is to retain the drama after revenge - worshiping the lord and collective incision. This shows that although the main creator has imposed a love line in order to take care of Fan Gui Lao's understanding ability, he still has respect for the original work, otherwise he can close the team after taking revenge.

Shibasaki Yuki and Li Jinu said goodbye to that scene, sorry I went to the Mizoguchi version... By the way, the technology has improved now, but the beauty of the Mizoguchi version of Asano's belly cut is so beautiful, no amount of gorgeous CG can come back.

One of the reasons why you can still watch this film is that Dashi's scenes have basically been preserved. Although it is impossible to detail scenes such as Taifu on the Pontoon Bridge, the Maruyama Meeting, and the Southern Banxuezhong different like the various 3-hour versions, it is different from the other scenes. The relationship between wives, children, and the warriors has basically been preserved, and the characters can still stand up. The part about the troupe helping the warriors, so-so, can be considered a bit of the old version of the shadow of loyalty. Don't ask too much, or you won't be able to watch it.

The two roles of Li Jinu and Yasuo were probably born out of Bushubei and Horibe Anbei? Could it be that the Iron King Kong from Kira's house is Shimizu Ichigaku? Not a good fight, but not fun!

Finally, the reason why national epics are national epics is precisely because the core values ​​in them are difficult for others to understand. Forcibly adapted, it can only attract people by "universal values" such as magic and love, and this is precisely the least important part of the original version. This version can be shot like this, it can only be said that it is okay.

Favorite loyal minister Tibetan, will always be the deep version of the great god.
