This is actually a work expected to be 5 stars

I like it very much, and it is regrettable. This is a work with a lot of top-level shots. Many of the detailed scenes make people like to be amazing and contemplative, not to mention the awesome music.
but! But! It’s a pity that the fighting part is nondescript, the pretense index broke the table, and the other is that the early stage of the film is all kinds of wonderful, and the overdraft in the later stage is almost exhausted, and it becomes tedious. This is not wise enough. I know that the full-scale works, the early stage pave the way. Most of them are boring. A good story needs to be suppressed first and then raised. It ends at the climax, but sometimes it also wants to be formal. Because it is so long, most people can feel that the film itself feels lonely. The desolate ending that came out of the crowd echoes, echoing from the outside of the play to the inside of the play, if you think so, it is also a small bright spot.
Give 4 stars. The overdraft in the second half is a bit severe. Sometimes the unfinished product is too long to say that it is unfinished. It is not only a poor finish, but also lowers the level of the whole film. So in fact, 3.5 stars may be more appropriate.
It's a pity!

The difference between the 143-minute theater version and the 150-minute director’s version starts at 68 minutes. After killing the monster, the director’s version has a plot in a brothel, and the theater version skips it.
