The emperor's new clothes are endless

The Seven Samurai is very good, because the balance of power is well designed to make the plot move forward to meet the rationality.

This movie is pure bullshit.

So many movie reviews with four stars and five stars are all stunned by the three words Kurosawa Akira, right?

Unosuke's marksmanship is very good. With a random shot in the opening, the hanging bell in the distance will be hit with two beeps. At the end, why can't you hit you with a slap in the face and hide from him? Moreover, since everyone knows that you are highly skilled, Unosuke can completely hide behind the crowd and shoot him continuously. Generally speaking, archers and gunners are behind shields and swordsmen. Would these guys who fight and kill all day know about such tactics? Are they all filming anti-Japanese dramas?

Thirty Lang's swordsmanship is concise and precise, first kills three, then kills six, not a single raid, but a frontal attack, well, with such combat power, before the gun comes, he is alone, I think he is completely capable First split one of the gangs, and then split the other gang, why play sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, it is unnecessary.

The acting is also just an expression, Sun Honglei is his uncle, right?

All the provocations are too fake, when those two gangs are idiots? This script is a failure. If there are seven ways to write bad words, I will add the eighth and write them here together.

What is eavesdropping on the wall, what is up for sale, what can't be evil without a knife, and such a lengthy dialogue at the beginning to explain the background of the story are all taboos in the language of the film. Only the most lame and untalented amateur screenwriters will write. Come up with this kind of script.

There is nothing remarkable about the handling of the shots, the tone levels lack depth, the light and shadow are too flat and straightforward, the camera movement is not fast enough, and climbing the tall building to watch the fight is more like a live news drama.

I didn't want to criticize badly, but after seeing so many people holding stinky feet, I couldn't help but want to ask you, would you still give him five stars in such an extravagant manner with an unknown young Chinese director?

    Evil is as unscrupulous as the smog and creeping grass, Sanjiu Lang just needs to be like a cricket, holding the fighting grass to the left and right. I used to think that samurai movies were very western, but now it seems that westerns have a Japanese wilderness style, and they influence each other. The majestic Toshiro Mifune is actually only 174, and Eastwood needs 193 if he wants to be slender and strong... 10

    #North Film FestivalPhoto# is probably my favorite Akira Kurosawa movie, and it would be a good idea to use it as a sequel to "Tsubaki Thirteen Lang". There were twists and turns (nearly beaten), but overall it was positive and fun. This story is not cliché at all. It does not follow the routine of justice defeating evil. Instead, it portrays the positive and negative characters with flesh and blood. It also uses the irony of the past to see that the world is cool and people are not old. Iconic classic characters. ps Cheng Xiaodong and Tsui Hark's "Human Road" many scenes are copied from this film. It seems that the classics influence each other, and the great filmmakers also cherish each other.
