I didn't even know that this was Jackie Chan's new work. It also included Choi Siwon, whom I was familiar with, Lin Ruoxin, whom I was not familiar with, and several foreigners. I didn't even know the history of Yanguan until I saw it while I was waiting in the cinema hall. Poster. Well, I also admit that when I watched the trailer, I didn’t know the plot at all and probably didn’t go to Baidu.
As far as the plot is concerned, the film starts with an accident and ends with an accident. The accident at the beginning can be said to be the match of nature, and the advent of the sandstorm made Rome and the army of the Duhufu flee to Yanguan, and launched Jiang Jun Luquith and Huo An, or to be more precise, Luquith and the Roman led by him. The friendship between the army and all the brothers in Yanguan. The surprise at the end was the arrival of the army led by Queen An Siguo. In fact, I thought it was the arrival of the army from the imperial court at that time, which was quite unexpected. Although the final life-and-death confrontation between Joan and Thebes is what drives the storyline, this accident just echoes the beginning, nature and humanity. This is indeed a highlight of the film in my opinion. The last-minute rescue of Hong Kong directors in American blockbusters is quite valuable.
It was mentioned earlier that this was directed by Hong Kong Li Rengang. From the casting, soundtrack, costumes and artistic techniques of this film, it seems to be consistent with his previous films "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet" and "Jin Yiwei". I also think that The director's choice of these can really show the Chinese national characteristics, historical characteristics, and character characteristics. As far as the soundtrack is concerned, the film uses the music with the style of the Western Regions, the country of the Silk Road and the characteristics of the Roman Empire far away on the other side of the ocean. Whether it's the usual drums, horns, or the uncommon harp, in each piece of music, the plot develops so naturally and excitingly. In the soundtrack, the national anthem of Rome and the songs sung by Huo An have been around for three days, whether in memory or in battle, they gave us a feast of hearing and reached an international level.
There is no doubt that the theme of this film is positive and the content is full of rich characters. Since it is based on real history, there is also a bit of exaggeration, but these exaggerations are only to better shape the characters or to better earn the masses. emotion. From this point of view, there seems to be nothing wrong. This history is an epic heroic history, just like the choice of the two archaeologists at the end of the film, I hope it will not be destroyed. The selection of the subject matter is a novel and bold choice, and it is the beginning of the success of the film. The use of a lot of English, with the characteristics of the Chinese nation, is also good.
Not to mention the successful display of the characters, the grandeur of the scenes or the realistic effects of special effects, in this environment where the masses are getting more and more aesthetic, simply say the 12 words "for loyalty, for dreams, for peace", which means success. Yes, the audience is blameless. More than 100 days of perseverance, making every character jump, vivid and let the audience remember, is a success. This reflects the vision of the director's actor's choice, as well as the actor's own efforts. The establishment of the big brother is naturally not a problem, Choi Siwon and Lin Ruoxin's hard-working performances have indeed been well received, and the little actor who performed the little prince also made people cry. Let every actor give full play to their own performance talents and potential, and pay tribute to them.
These are just my personal opinions, the writing is not good, and the opinions are subjective, but I have to admit that it gave me too much shock and too much moving.
