Chibi: a flower on Liu Bei

Even comrades like Cai Kangyong praised Takeshi Kaneshiro for his beauty, so "Red Cliff" to me is nothing more than a feast for beautiful men.
Just by hearing the names, you can know: Tony Leung, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Hu Jun, Zhang Fengyi, Zhang Zhen. The first-line handsome men and melancholy men from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places are gathered together, plus a unique Nakamura lion boy, it is a woman's loss if she does not watch this scene.

Maybe you will say that there is still Lin Chiling, and Zhao Wei with big eyes, aren't you afraid of stimulation? But after watching this play, you will know: when Zhao Wei smiles naughty, it is difficult to hide the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and Lin Chiling is no longer the skin in fashion magazines, and she also has small acne, God! Why should we women spend two hours a day feeling sorry for ourselves in front of the mirror for the same reasons?

I have to admit that after reading "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is quite awkward to accept the modern vocabulary that pops up from the mouths of historical figures. Fortunately, compared to "Seeing the Dragon Unloading Armor", "Red Split" is obviously much stronger. Zhao Wei's "every woman is responsible" was not so harsh when Hou Yong took up "every horse is also responsible".

Overall, this is a big drama that combines various modern pop elements. Listed as follows:
Qiong Yao Elements: Lin Chiling, from voice to eyes, from plot to dialogue, all embodies the essence of Qiong Yao opera. Especially "Promise me, when Mengmeng grows up, you can't let it be a war horse." Oh my mother, I almost thought the hero was Ma Jingtao.
Martial arts element: Hu Jun's Zhao Zilong is quite good, in comparison, Andy's brother is too vase. Look at his long spear and short sword, open and close, like Qiao Feng possessed, bravely saving Ah Dou in the chaotic army, and even more powerful as the leader of the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun. Zhao Wei's unique "Orchid brushing acupoint hand" to point You Yong down must be a prequel to Peach Blossom Island.

News elements: Zhang Zhen, Liang Chaowei, Zhao Wei and Ma rush out to hunt, and the old friend "South China Tiger", who has been familiar to the majority of netizens for nine months, appeared in the woods. I hummed with excitement - there is a tiger in the distant Three Kingdoms, its name is Zhenglong!


Olympic elements: Zhang Fei's outburst of shouting while running forward in the gossip formation can be seen as a tribute to Liu Xiang's heroic 100-meter hurdles. Zhou Yu jumped from the horse and then turned his body for three and a half weeks and stabbed Cao with his backhand with an arrow. The most obvious thing is that the soldiers of the Eastern Wu Dynasty raised their right hands and shouted "Olympics!" "Olympics!" - my friend pushed me hard, and they clearly shouted "victory" and "victory".

... The above proves that I was in a good mood when I watched this movie, and my attitude was correct. It was guaranteed that there would be no laughter, and the laughter was also whispered.
The topic came back to the handsome man, and a friend who watched the movie said that the title of the movie should be "The Legend of Comrade of the Three Kingdoms", alluding to the ambiguity conveyed between Takeshi Kaneshiro and Tony Leung's eyes. In my opinion, this is a paperclip love, Jin Chengwu and Zhang Zhen, Zhang Zhen and Liang Chaowei, Liang Chaowei and Jin Chengwu, the two feather fans have a good heart, pity me, I pity Qingqing, pity, and make Zhou Yu Xiaoqiao's bed scene so superfluous, The grape trellis bears a peach, and it looks good, but I don't know what it has to do with the vine.

The following is a one-sentence comment:
According to the definition of prose writing, Guan Yu in the "Red Cliff" version has the effect of appearing in dissimilar form. Like it.
Jin Chengwu is not a stunner, only opportunistic and winking (Zhang Zhen) among the Confucian Confucians, but there is no right answer.
Liang Chaowei deserves to be the person who is about to get married. Every appearance is full of spring breeze, and every rhetorical question is tender like water - happy performances are always similar.
Zhang Zhen is feminine, undecided, and unattractive this time - Gu Long said that the best decoration for a woman is pride, and the best decoration for a man should be decisiveness.
You Yong, ah, I don't object when he plays Liu Bei, and I don't object to the formalism of his straw sandals - only when Zhao Wei plays Sun Shangxiang, I object, why? Because there is a saying since ancient times, called a flower on Liu Bei. Since there is a second episode, I hope that the flower in the next episode can be changed into a vase.
Zhao Wei's straightness, stupidity, and stupefaction are cute, and so is Sun Shangxiang. It has nothing to do with acting or history, but only about my personal preference.
Lin Chiling's gentleness, low-pitchedness, and charming, pear blossoms with rain, and a sweet smile... All in all, it's all in one sentence: I want to conquer you. (This reminds me of Zhang Ziyi, who has something in common, must have this ambition to become popular, right? The same thing becomes: Michelle Yeoh and Gong Li: I can conquer you.)

When the performers show their motivation above everything else, everyone will Don't hold on to the word acting. With the mentality of admiring the beautiful men's banquet, this movie did not disappoint me. Zhou Xingxing said it was just to see, why take it seriously?

I foolishly watched it for 140 minutes. According to He Caitou, the movie was 150 minutes long. I doubt it.
I clapped N times, looked forward to N times of fire, endured N times Song Jia's black widow-style resentment (what is more shocking than "Prime Minister, you have spoiled me for three days"?) And secretly reviewed the elementary school texts I always thought that the climax of "Borrowing Arrows on a Straw Boat" was about to come. Seeing that Zhou Yu finally set fire to the small paper boat, a few big characters appeared on the screen: Battle of Chibi - let's see the breakdown next time.
