Brothers and sisters, gather!

My favorite part should be to go back and gather the former brothers and sisters. If there is any glamorous, it will stay on the surface. Everyone has their own downfalls and can't bear to speak. Life is like this, humiliation is just normal, it is also good to be a salted fish, at least the salted fish can live strong.

Time has honed their dreams and ambitions. Fortunately, there is a lunatic among them, who will naughty and never give up. He is always thinking about Master's last wish, "To carry forward Shaolin martial arts!" It's ridiculous in reality, but it doesn't matter in the movie, no matter how crazy it is. Every dream has the chance to come true.

"Football cannot be played by one person." Has this sentence been quoted too many times, including the sentence "If a person has no dreams, what is the difference between a person and a salted fish?" It has transcended the context of the film and became Sentences established by themselves are perpetually circulated. I haven't seen the movie, but I still hear calluses in my ears, that's how widespread it is.

There are also a few scattered ideas: although the special effects are simple, they are used just right, and I think they should be considered advanced at the time. Cecilia Cheung was too smart back then, and her brief appearance was exciting. In front of Zhao Wei's steamed bread shop, the atmosphere of the crowd dancing together was very contagious, with a kind of earthy and generous spirit.

If I want to complement Zhou Xingchi's movies, there are many movies starred in, but not many of them really implement Xingye's ideas. Maybe after watching a circle of director's works, I still have to look back at The King of Comedy.
