One star is for Hou Hsiao-hsien's age

One star is given for Hou Hsiao-hsien's age and respect for the elderly.
This year, I just watched Japanese director Yasujiro Ozu's "Tokyo Story". It also has a lot of long shots, and the progress is relatively slow, but it can feel human nature. After watching the movie, read some movie reviews, I feel that there will be more gains.
Watching "Assassin Nie Yinniang" is not the case at all, there are a lot of long shots, but what do you want to say? Not calm but wordy. Even if the movie is telling a story, it should be a bit neater at the age.
There are less than ten people in the cinema, and there should be four sleeping in the middle and two leaving early. I almost passed out twice (maybe already passed out, no matter how I sleep it doesn't affect my viewing).
After the subtitles of the movie came out, I laughed inexplicably, it was a little weird, hahahaha...
