disappoint others

Going to the movies with friends today. I agreed not to watch Pig Man, so I chose "Heart of the King" temporarily at the Oscars. The big publicity of the film is: the famous epic blockbuster.

Both my friends and I took it for granted that this should be a movie similar to The Lord of the Rings, including wars between countries, filled with gunpowder and conspiracy, and then a king grew up from there.

Beginning, sure enough. The fierce battle between ancient Ireland and Britain in the Middle Ages, and the territorial disputes, people with misery and panic written on their faces all make people feel like returning to the Middle Ages. Some of the pictures are so beautiful that they look like oil paintings.

However, the more you look at it, the worse it feels. Basically, the development of the story has been going down according to Ou's idea. The hero is injured - rescued by the heroine - the hero wins the contest and the heroine becomes a wife to the king of Britain - two people cheating - is discovered - the two countries are at war again - the hero dies (I originally thought The heroine dies) and the story ends.

It turned out that this love story is "The Heart of the King". Can't help feeling funny. Nowadays, movies are becoming more and more gimmicky. Can the love of a leader be called an epic blockbuster?

The first time I watched a movie, I would go out to wc slowly, and then I would continue to watch it again. And there are no interruptions in the plot. Laomei's movies are actually on par with Korean dramas.

Since you can't read epics, let's look at love. But, no matter what, I can't be moved. The "Braveheart" of that year was also a similar theme, which made people cry. The contradictions, struggles, and sacrifices of the male and female protagonists in this film cannot impress outsiders in any way.

After reading it, I came back disappointed. After a casual search on the Internet, I suddenly understood why the gap between the title and the movie is so big. It turned out that the original name of the movie was "Tristan and Isolde", which is the story of the hero and heroine. It is estimated that the film company was afraid that the direct translation of the film would not be popular, so they deceived people with the name "Heart of the King". Making money comes first, and it doesn't matter to them whether the audience is disappointed or not.
