Finally set foot on the road of old movies in Hong Kong......

That being said, if you haven't watched "Playing a String of Rivers and Lakes Again", you probably wouldn't have the heart to watch such an old martial arts movie. I always feel that it is not as good as the book says, but in terms of the ratio between the plot and the martial arts, it is better than the current "Ip Man 2". When I read it, I feel that it is quite natural. But to be honest, I didn't see much of the amazing part of Jet Li's martial arts. It doesn't seem like Donnie Yen feels as good, hey~~~ How can I say it?
In terms of color, it is mainly due to the costumes of Peking Opera, which adds a lot of color to a film with a relatively single tone.
As for the plot, I think it's still pretty good, and there are many things to watch.
Li Lianjie is so handsome here~ He is young, and he deserves to be the martial arts champion selected by the whole country.
