Martial arts concept and action design have reached the peak

Li Lianjie is one of the representative action films. If it is purely about action, it is completely worth five stars. The hearty action design is almost from the beginning to the end without any urine spots. The three battles of Jet Li vs. Qian Xiaohao, Jet Li vs. Kurata Baozhao, and Jet Li vs. Billy Zhou reflect three different styles of fighting scenes. Chinese Kung Fu➕Western Boxing is fascinating to watch, and the martial arts mentioned in many places in the film The idea doesn't make sense either. Jet Li's image of Chen Zhen in a tunic suit is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Compared with Bruce Lee's "Jingwumen", each has its own spring and autumn. It's a bit regrettable that the plot part is not too brilliant. Compared with the hearty action, the plot is a bit blunt. However, seeing such an excellent movie in that era was really an instant burst of nationality.

    This film may be the best in the history of Jet Li's kung fu film. No matter in terms of action design, ideological expression, or understanding of martial arts and martial arts, it is an unparalleled example of kung fu films. The movie was born in the era of the explosion of new martial arts and kung fu movies, and this is also the doomsday of Hong Kong-style martial arts movies. In these years, the best Jet Li has met the best Tsui Hark, Yuan Heping, and at the same time. There are also many excellent fighting scenes. In the film, Jet Li's three head-to-head fights are all against real masters, especially Fujita Gosho and Zhou Billy, who is the champion of the World Fighting Championship. The effect presented by the design is rarely seen in films so far, and Jet Li's Chen Zhen expressed his understanding and perception of Kung Fu, as well as the concept of martial arts, which also surpassed the realm shown by many Kung Fu movies. In contrast, the story itself doesn't have much to offer, and for the national sentiment, it is by no means blindly exploiting and inciting, and adopts an objective and rational attitude. The characters have distinct characteristics, and the supporting roles are also brilliant. Miho Nakayama's younger sister Nakayama Ninja is amazing

    It is indeed rare to combine martial arts with practical advanced techniques in martial arts, blindfolded martial arts competition in front of the tomb, and critical inheritance of traditional concepts of ethnic contradictions.
