Aamir Khan's films are my must-sees. In recent years, Uncle Mi's films have been recognized by the public for their attention to important social issues/views in India/and are well-shot, and have gained a group of loyal fans in China. This film can be regarded as a "costume film" of India. The story takes place in the period when India was colonized by the British, and it tells the conflict between the colonized and the colonizer. Five recommended reasons:
First, the protagonist of the story played by Uncle Mi is not a "big hero" in the traditional sense. Uncle Mi's own interpretation of the character, needless to say, is very "cute"!
Second, the plot has been reversed many times, so many times, there will always be one that will surprise you.
Third, the martial arts design of the movie is very beautiful, and the actors perform beautifully. It goes beyond reality and violates the gravity of the earth, but it doesn't feel abrupt. Who made it a "costume movie"? In the era of the overlapping of hot and cold weapons, the confrontation between guns and swords and arrows coexists, and the logic is reasonable. This is far better than that in the undersea world where the technology is extremely advanced, and it is more comfortable to rely on a fork made in the age of cold weapons.
Fourth, let’s talk about the story itself, the loss of land, the loss of rights and power, if the great hero sees the changes in the world pattern as clearly as today’s people, if he knows that it is a struggle destined to lose, I wonder if there is still Such courage rose up to resist. Decades later, a similar conflict occurred in China with a slightly different outcome. On the one hand, the evil of the colonists is hated; on the other hand, in the logical world invisible to the naked eye, the original balance is broken, and a new order needs to be established to achieve balance. In the end, the colonized/invaded accept foreign "use" and "body" in various ways. If you don't believe it, just look at today's India and China. In the process of large-scale changes, individuals appear even more insignificant. Individuals know themselves in the era and group to which they belong, and no one can surpass them.
Fifth, the soundtrack of the movie is particularly burning.
