After watching "Summer of Kijiro", I had some expectations for Takeshi Kitano's film, but after watching "Zatoichi" yesterday, I seem to feel that my expectations for Takeshi Kitano were a little high earlier, and I felt a sense of loss. To be honest, it is very difficult for Kitano Takeshi to portray him as a Jet Li-like knight. Since you can't work on your appearance, let's make a big splash in martial arts moves. Didn't Lin Qingxia, who didn't know martial arts more than ten years ago, also created the popular Dongfang Undefeated under the background of Huaquan and embroidered legs? However, the fighting style in this film is still disappointing, very minimal and simple. This fighting style is very ancient. Thinking of the peerless swordsmen written by Gu Long, we always look forward to their duel in a tense atmosphere. However, what the knights dedicate to the audience is always a neat move-just one move, no matter whether it is successful or not. fail. Gu Long will also do a lot of foreshadowing before the duel, and only after the audience's appetite is full, he uses this unique trick in a thrilling manner. The movie seems to have forgotten the importance of foreshadowing, or that it is simply not enough, so the fights in the film are only bloody, but not martial arts. It seems that the Japanese are Japanese, and their understanding of the essence of martial arts is far less than that of the martial arts family in Hong Kong.
I don't like the violent aesthetics of Takeshi Kitano, if the connotation of violent aesthetics is equivalent to the scene of bloody and blood-splattered scenes. I think that's just violence, not beauty.
