for those ten minutes

The first movie I watched seriously in so many days, I had to be serious, because it was in a movie theater, and the leather sofa in Jindian was very comfortable, basically a small hall with 15 seats. The problem is that the two seats are too far apart, and the two The lights at the bottom of the wall are dazzling.
The king of kung fu, without any hesitation, directed at Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and is a Hollywood kung fu blockbuster. This can be regarded as a warning. There is no problem with two Kung Fu superstars. The fault lies in Hollywood, especially the Hollywood blockbuster. This will be a baptism of predetermined conventions.
Jackie Chan and Jet Li's strange make-up may be more eye-catching than their kung fu or even that sparring match. By the way, I missed the opening scene. When I came in, it happened that the man took the iron rod that he later learned was a golden hoop and fell. Building, and then into the magical alien space, from here until Liu Yifei appears, everything is still fascinating and unknown. This is a really good start.
Then everything changed, Hollywood's drama routines came out, values ​​began to be exported, and then I started to dream about this familiar place and story. Liu Yifei is a beauty who matches a hero (the hero has not yet been made), which is what Hollywood wants her to exist. In order to make the audience buy it, a confrontational history has been set for her, but this supporting role appeared too early, and she still It never disappears, and she keeps scratching her head and posing to pave the way for the hero. In the desert, she turned 720 degrees to save the hero's eyebrows. There are more cruel words than this, which will be mentioned later), in short, this character should die in the slaughter of the Jade Border Warrior (what is this).
The interaction of cultures will produce a lot of wonderful things, but there will also be a lot of "heresy". This script is nothing short of four dissimilarities. It would not be an exaggeration to let Westerners know a little more about the so-called kung fu after work, but since you have it released in China, you have to consider the feelings of the Chinese people. Well, Skywalker, General Yujiang, what is this? Lu Yan, the white-haired witch, do you know what this is? Four people will send sticks. This should be the Journey to the West in the eyes of the screenwriter.
Going to Yaochi to recruit the white-haired witch made me a little excited. I thought that there would be so many monsters, so that Skywalker could play a game, but the witch was too strong to die, and she was still entangled in the final battle. I didn't know why, but my companion reminded me that the story might be the moment when the witch fell off the cliff and found that the heartless man was originally Lu Yan played by Jackie Chan.
The appearance of Jet Li's character is the most "amazing". I thought it was a white-haired witch who was killed, but it turned out that some monk was involved, and was about to scold. . Then there is Jet Li's iconic "intriguing" smile, and people can get on the road when they get together.
It's not easy to make jokes when crossing the desert, there is the "classic clip" of Jackie Chan drinking urine and then Jet Li discovering the Liusha River; the desert is full of philosophy, when a group of people is trapped in a hole and the hero can't hold it anymore , Master monk said the words that will definitely be maddened in Zhou Xingxing's film (later recalled many versions: pay attention to breathing, we still have breathing, adjust your breathing, as long as you can breathe): Don't forget to breathe. The screenwriter obviously wanted to have more Chinese cultural heritage, and many of the dialogues became maddening, including the last sentence Wukong said to Skywalker I liked (you released me, now release yourself), if you only watch One scene was thought to be the work of Wang Jing. The section of the Liusha River should have been cut, and the plot could not be connected. There is no free time for the witch, the hero has to be tempered non-stop, here is inevitable, plus there are two masters, I want to make a comedy effect, okay, this is the place to sit in the whole film The only place is probably mainly the nostalgia for the two kung fu superstars.
The final battle is a typical Hollywood model... (I really can't write anymore) I


specially read the subtitles at the end of the article, all filmed in the People's Republic of China, and the whole class of Hollywood. The most interesting thing is that it also specifically pointed out that no animals were harmed during the filming process, I think it should be Wukong.

The Forbidden Kingdom quotes

  • Lu Yan: A musician can have Kung Fu, or the poet who paints pictures with words and makes emperors weep, this too is Kung Fu.

  • The Silent Monk: Learn the form, but seek the formless. Hear the soundless. Learn it all, then forget it all. Learn The Way, then find your own way.
