Huo Yuanjia

I don't know why iQIYI deleted "This punch, 20 years of hard work", I do like most netizens and want to see this scene.

At the beginning of the scene, it unfolded in flashbacks. When Huo Yuanjia was a child, I knew that this movie was fictional, and I seemed to have a lawsuit for it, but I think it was really embarrassing to act as a child, in order to highlight his father's martial arts. Get the supremacy of martial arts, forcibly express a wave. This is the drawback of Chinese movies. Sometimes it is too clear and the explanation is too clear, but the effect will make people feel like superfluous. I think it is better for the movie to be a little hazy and reverie.

I don't mean to belittle. I also like Jet Li, the national martial arts champion. He is proficient in all eight kinds of martial arts. He is really amazing, and the movie is also well done. I am afraid that this kind of all-round talent will not come out again. At least in our age.

The fight scene in the film is very exciting. He punched through the board and hit Zhao Jian on the chest. It was very cool to watch. To be honest, I only watched this part. But after killing Master Qin, the family was ruined, how did he get on the boat and fell into the water for no reason, this plot jump is a bit out of bounds, this is not an action movie or magical realism, you can shoot wherever you want.

At the end of the fight with the Japanese, it was all about fighting spirit and shouting slogans. Yes, we don’t care what the truth is, but Huo Yuanjia is a kind of spirit, and we Chinese always need this kind of example to motivate ourselves. It's too Chinese. I used to be very dissatisfied with why few Chinese films won Oscars, but now I understand a little bit, not only because foreign countries discriminate against us, but more because we don't treat movies as an art. Always unknowingly led by a strong desire to express, the performances are all content that can be understood by the seventies and eighties, down to seven or eight years old, why bother?
