"Kung Fu" is undoubtedly the most incisive work since the director of Xing Ye's film. Whether it is casting, scene scheduling, stunts, atmosphere and rhythm are the peaks of his directorial career. The tightly structured sub-screen script makes the story progress smoothly in one go, and the general audience, such as me, must go out of the theater to recover. Therefore, from the director's point of view, this film is definitely an unprecedented success, and it deserves to win the most "good-looking" film of the year.
Just as a great creation, this film can only go halfway. Great movies are immortal and never get tired of watching them. "Good-looking" must be added with "enduring", but everyone should understand that the fatal flaw of this film is obviously that the overall layout of the story and the belief behind it are very weak. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is lackluster .
In terms of the layout of the story, it generally follows the structure of "Shaolin Soccer". Star Lord is a loser to challenge more and more powerful enemies. In the end, Xingye wins, and the female lead always wins. Companionate action knot. Don't say that this time, Master Xing was the first to be the bad guy and finally realized that there is a difference. This layout has already been unveiled in the God of Cookery. Furthermore, all the so-called villains who appear in Star Master's movies tend to have only one appearance, timid, despicable and unconscionable, from Fat Gu in "The God of Cookery" to Xie Xian in "Shaolin Football" and Brother Chen in this film. They are all very one-sided dramas of pure villains. Therefore, although from the perspective of the director, the refinement and compactness of each sub-field is almost impeccable, but from the perspective of the entire film layout, as a film author, there is really nothing refreshing about "Kung Fu". breakthrough.
In terms of belief, this film shows the kung fu of horses and horses, which is naturally reminiscent of paying tribute to kung fu. It's just that the fine traditional Kung Fu in China is about defending the family and the country, and learning hard to achieve the Tao. What makes people appreciate is that kind of perseverance. When it comes to the work of this film, it is a lot of fun, and the spirit behind the admiration has been subverted by Xing Ye. The star in the film has not been trained hard, but it is the so-called martial arts wizard who is outdated in the film. . When several masters of the generation who really protected the city for the city died, the "boy" Xing Ye, who was eager to pursue personal fame and fortune, won the final victory. To put it bluntly, it is not a tribute to kung fu, but to satisfy Xing Ye's lifelong desire to be a martial arts master.
It is also said that this film is to convey the truth that at the beginning of human beings, nature is inherently good. Originally, the addition of a childhood hero to save the United States provided sufficient reasons, but the role of Star Lord in the film was changed, and in the key scene of the casino, the transition was a bit of a joke. The dramatic "estimate you can't predict" is a face-changing plot that everyone has estimated. This makes the already weak beliefs scattered further, and you can't see when you can't hear it. Isn't it the same as not saying anything?
There seems to be a lot of criticism, but the score is clear. It is necessary to reiterate that from the standpoint of the audience, this film is a dizzying annual film. It only talks about the creation. From the perspective of the film author, the star is not as important to the film as the increased investment amount of the first officer. There is a major breakthrough in the creation, which gives people the feeling that the three quilts are carved and inlaid to a very beautiful, but at most, the best three quilts in history.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that this film can make the audience dizzy because of his discerning casting and excellent management skills in scheduling these group dramas. The role of the film is relatively small, but there will be no jokes in the place without him (appearance), and the roles of each appearance, long or short, are full of charm. Among them, Yuandi's charter-in-law, who is very popular, is naturally the most popular. Let Xing Ye induce an extraordinary sense of joy, which indeed has to be praised for the success of Xing Ye as a director.
In general, if we separate the scenes of "Kung Fu", we will all see wonderful arrangements. For example, the scenes of "Walking Racing" or "Lion's Roaring Loud Speaker" are all daring to say, but when After they add up to become a movie, the spirit or concept behind them is weak, making "Kung Fu" a piece of "wonderful is wonderful, there is no soul".
