watching "The Grandmaster", the first reaction was: wow, what a delicate picture, what a meaningful dialogue. The second reaction is: Why did Zhang Zhen appear out of thin air and then disappear, and after 10 years, he appeared and made a soy sauce? What happened to the big brother played by Zhao Benshan? Why did Xiaoshenyang's completely incompatible style appear in this film? Why does Tony Leung's speech suddenly fast-forward and the sound and picture are out of sync? This is completely a semi-finished product, okay?
1. Let's talk about the first character in this film, Ip Man played by Tony Leung. It is a fierce battle in the rain without explaining the reason. The picture is beautiful, but it is fighting for the sake of fighting. The audience has no idea why they are fighting, and removing this scene has no effect on the plot.
2. Gong Baosen and his senior brother Li Cunyi said that this new wood is needed in the stove, which means that the current martial arts needs Ye Wen, a newcomer. Later, he also told his daughter Gong Er that Ye Wen is a good material. Whether he could succeed, he finally joined hands with Ye Wen at the retirement ceremony in Foshan and handed over the burden of the Southern Boxing to Ye Wen. But what exactly did Ye Man do? After Wen Dou won Gong Baosen, Wu Dou humbly asked Gong Er to keep communicating with Gong Er for the next two years, followed by a 10-year gap, and then appeared in Hong Kong (then a British territory). ) up. In the film, we did not see Ye Wen doing anything for Nanquan Beichuan and Chinese martial arts. Why is it called a grandmaster?
3. In the scene where the family took a group photo after Ip Man bought a new coat for his wife, it was supposed to be him and his wife, who was holding the child, sitting on both sides of the table, and the eldest son sat on the left side of Ip Man, but Ip Man did not sit , but stood behind his wife. This makes people very strange: the father doesn't need to hold his son, even if there is an empty seat next to him, he keeps his son far away. However, when the picture was frozen and then the photo appeared, it was even more surprising: the eldest son actually changed to Ip Man's seat, such a low-level editing error is really shocking.
4. There are also various questions when Ye Wen speaks. In 1940, he said, "I learned boxing at the age of 7, and I have never seen Gaoshan before I was 40. Now I find that the most difficult thing to overcome is life." This monologue Originally, it was good, but in the last sentence "The most difficult thing to pass is life", several frames were inexplicably subtracted between "de" and "yes", causing these two words to become continuous pronunciation without any pause in between. , it sounds very awkward. Later, in Hong Kong in 1950, the dialogue with Fu Xing was also the same. When Ye Wen said the last sentence, his mouth had already come out, but his voice was half a beat slower than his mouth, which made people look really anxious.
5. The second character in the film: Gong Baosen. As the president of the Chinese Samurai Association, he came to Foshan to hold the retirement ceremony. During the ceremony, he said that he was the class of the senior brother Li Cunyi. After a few scenes, he ran to a place that looked like a kitchen to meet the "shige brother" played by Zhao Benshan. "Although it has not been clearly explained, it can be assumed that this senior brother is Li Cunyi, the senior brother. During the dialogue, it was mentioned that Li Cunyi left the northeast and went south to Foshan in 1905. So why did he leave the Northeast and let Gong Baosen take over? Why did it reappear in Hong Kong after 1950? Nothing is explained in the film, this is always a mysterious incomplete character.
6. Going to talk about Gong Baosen and Li Cunyi, Gong Baosen said to Gong Er in the golden building: "The ability of people to live this life is the second thing. Some become face, and some become lizi. It's all due to the times." Later, in Hong Kong, Li Cunyi also said to Ye Wen: "In one sect, if someone takes face, then someone has to take the lie. The face can't be stained with dust, and blood has been shed. It is the big event of destroying the sect and destroying the family. If you invite someone to eat a cigarette in face, you may have to get rid of one person.” The seemingly philosophical face and sect appeared twice, but throughout the whole film, in 36 years Foshan Gongbaosen Retirement, Ye Wen and the Gong family father and daughter have two competitions. In 40 years, Masan killed Gong Baosen, and in the same year, Da Gong Er defeated Ma San for revenge. The real plot is these, who is the face and who is the inner child? The film still does not explain, this is trickery!
7. Gong Baosen had a conversation with Gong Er, Gong Er thought that Ye Wen was not suitable for Gong Baosen's hand, Gong Baosen finally said, "Our Gong family has a high threshold, but there is never a villain." This sentence is inexplicable , Gong Er has always been emphasizing that Gong Baosen has never been defeated, and Ye Wen's little guy is not qualified to help him, how can he become a villain? Is the part of the two people's dialogue that can highlight Gong Er's villain cut out, but Gong Baosen's words forgot to cut? Or was Gong Baosen's sentence originally told to others and cut here by mistake? Whatever the case may be, the characters' dialogue here is seriously illogical.
8. In the third part of the film, Zhang Zhen suddenly appeared out of thin air. As soon as he appeared, he was chased by Japanese soldiers and then rescued by Zhang Ziyi. A minute later he walked away gently, just as he came gently, and after one third of the film time, ten years after the plot time, he appeared in Hong Kong out of thin air, and inexplicably had to quit an organization, inexplicably To be killed by the people in the organization, inexplicably fierce battles in the rain knocked down all the opponents. Yes, just like the beginning of the film, this is another fierce battle in the rain. Unlike the fierce battle for no reason, this time there is finally a reason to do it, but this reason is still Mo! name! That! wonderful!
9. After the inexplicably fierce fight, we finally know that Zhang Zhen's character is called Yixiantian by relying on the subtitles. He came to Hong Kong to open a barber shop, and also taught Xiao Shenyang, who came to collect protection fees, and accepted him as his apprentice. and then? No then. All of Zhang Zhen's scenes in this film are: being rescued by Gong Er once, being beaten by a crowd once, opening a barber shop, taking an apprentice, and that's it. It doesn't match the main line of the story at all. According to this line of thinking, can everyone who Ye Wen and Gong Er meet in their lives come to the film to show their faces and make soy sauce?
Finally, the famous game player Xing Wuhuo once said that the biggest gap between Chinese RPG games and Japanese RPG games is the degree of completion of the game. The Japanese can make an 80-point game theme with a degree of completion of 120%, making it Become an excellent game; and Chinese RPG games often have a 100-point game theme due to the background of traditional Chinese fantasy elements, but they always make the game 50% or even only 30% of the completion. Selling it out, and spending a lot of money on publicity, players no longer trust domestic RPG games after being scammed again and again. In fact, the same is true for the movie. No matter what the previous publicity said, Wong Kar-wai had been preparing for the film for eight years, Tony Leung "broken his hand twice" during filming, Zhang Ziyi would never make kung fu movies again, and Zhang Zhen became a Bajiquan champion for filming, but the evaluation The quality of a film does not depend on how long it took to prepare, how long it took to shoot, and how tortuous the filming process was. The only evaluation criterion was the 130-minute film that the audience saw in the theater. It's a semi-finished product.
