Small people, big ideals, and the copycat version of Ji Chunhua

Wu - This is the second copycat version of Ji Chunhua that I have seen after Hu Jun in "October Siege". Does everyone like to play imitation shows these days? And also like to imitate a bald harlequin?

According to Jackie Chan's recent consistent performance, he was not optimistic about the film originally. As a result, it gave me a surprise.

On one side is a general, a big man with great ambition and arrogance; on the other side is a deserter, a timid, but kind and simple little man. But fate tied the two together. In the end, the little people are influenced and become big people; the big people are influenced and give up their ideals for the sake of more little people's ideals.

This film is different from Jackie Chan's previous films. Its selling point is no longer its signature juggling fights, but it incorporates more humorous elements, as well as a humorous way of reflecting on human nature, which makes people laugh with tears.

The downside is that the color of this film has always been gray. In this regard, whether it is director Ding Sheng or producer and starring Jackie Chan, they should ask Zhang Yimou for advice.

However, Wang Baoqiang's guest-starring Lengtou communication soldier is a highlight. This part is arguably the funniest part of the whole movie.
