"Wu Xia": If this is love

Linwood 2022-04-20 09:02:20

When I came back after watching it, I quickly found Dou Wei's "Lost in the Rivers and Lakes" and listened to it to make up for the regret of being in the movie theater. A few days ago, I heard that Dou Wei is not doing well now, so he is just serving dishes in a bar in Xi'an. I really dare not I believe this is Faye Wong's ex-husband, a banner of Chinese rock and roll. This song is alright when you listen to it alone. The context at the end of the film is sublimated when you listen to it, but the stupid movie theater cut it into "Take me to your heart, welcome to this book" when the first sentence was released. The movie theater, welcome you to come again next time.” Things like this are far more pitiful than the Cantonese version of Sichuan dialect that didn’t sound like Kaneshiro Takeshi. I had to patiently read the subtitles and found that there were no easter eggs, and immediately flashed people.


The introduction of the previous film actually had a lot of spoilers. I thought there was no suspense, but after watching it, I realized that there was no need for suspense. Big film critics such as Europa, after watching the media field that they didn't know a few days in advance, said they were scumbags. I don't think it's so good. It's a new martial arts movie. In fact, Chen Kexin is also making new wine in old bottles. What medical martial arts, Conan detective style, are all forms. The poster also deliberately uses a very rare yellow background with green words, which is very non-mainstream. A few days ago, I watched an episode of If You Are the One I don't know when, the man who came up was wearing a yellow jacket and a green T-shirt, and the first impression was that 24 lights were turned off. Of course, this may have been a gimmick of If You Are the One back then, but this aesthetic is indeed rather peculiar. There is no such color in the subtitles of the main film, most of which are yellow earth and green water. If you want me to say, Takeshi Kaneshiro's role is redundant. The whole film tells the love story of Donnie Yen and Tang Wei and the father-son relationship between Donnie Yen and the leader. The setting of cutting the arm pays tribute to Teacher Zhang Che's "One-Armed Swordsman", and there is nothing else. In general, there are still bright spots, and I like it very much. I also think it is worth the price of the ticket. With a shake of my hand, I have five stars.


As a rare commercial film with a single screenwriter in recent years, the screenwriter of the film is quite good, the details are very good, and it is generally criticized for the reasons I have mentioned. Lin Aihua and others co-wrote the previous "Vote for Name", "If You Love", "Golden Rooster", etc. This time, the anti-traditional "Wu Xia" is also unconventional in this regard, and it is indeed somewhat of a level. The scenery of Tengchong is very good, I want to go to see it, there are many things about the beauty of clothing and Taoism, I don't understand and don't say much, but it is also beautiful. In terms of editing, it's generally pretty good, but there are a few individual opinions. For example, from the beginning of the film, from the artificial alarm clock, Donnie Yen wakes up to Tang Wei's shower, to the two children's teeth extraction, not very connected, the black screen should be a little longer, which caused a boss to say something. It's good to show an accident. I still think that editing a lot of flowers and intestines will make it look a lot better.


The quality of Donnie Yen's martial arts as a martial arts instructor is still very high. Although some things are plagiarized from his previous works, there are still many details that have been carefully and interesting. Punch to the flesh is not covered. Among the three Zhen Weiwu, Zhen Kungfu's acting skills have also improved slightly. When Kaneshiro Takeshi was recounting the case handling process as Conan, the comparison of the two paragraphs showed that his acting skills were quite good. Takeshi Kaneshiro I still strictly think he is a soy sauce does not explain. Tang Wei's domineering side leaked, and said later.


In terms of details, I have no logic in this paragraph. The beginning and the end are some trivial things about getting up and eating, which is an echo. The killing method mentioned by Conan Feng countless times in the middle has been used all the time, and the replay of the killing scene also echoes. Black and white Takeshi Kaneshiro appears in the same screen, and it seems that a lot of people have used similar things before, but they still feel good. He mentioned a child he once rescued who stole money from his adoptive parents. He thought that favors were higher than the law and should be forgiven him, but the child's kindness and revenge poisoned his adoptive parents and turned Takeshi Kaneshiro to the ground. This story is mentioned more than once, and it feels like it is outside the plot. Things related to Takeshi Kaneshiro are rather strange, including Jiang Wu, who only has a direct connection with him, and is of little use to the plot. There is a particularly funny joke in the middle. Tang Wei wears a bellyband and prepares fish bladders for Donnie Yen. Donnie Yen said that you know I don't like the smell of fish, so don't eat mercury, it's not good for your health. The audience here is laughing, it's bright, it's a pity that it didn't show any signs. It is painful for the two male protagonists to discuss some of their lives, because they don't see that this is the main point of the movie, and what kind of murderer should be forgiven if his conscience finds out.


The story of Donnie Yen, his adoptive father, the leader of the seventy-two earth evil, who carried the dead 800,000 compatriots on his shoulders and became hostile to everything. In the end, with the help of Takeshi Kaneshiro, she was struck to death by lightning. I was really sick of lightning. There are so many paragraphs about the father-son relationship, which are from different people. The first paragraph is Donnie Yen saying that my father killed my favorite horse and let me eat it, and said that you will be fearless. In the second paragraph, Donnie Yen said that my father said that there is no difference between humans and animals, so I killed the butcher's family who owed money, so I spent ten years in prison in Jingzhou. The third paragraph is Donnie Yen's adoptive father, the leader of the Seventy-two Disha, who said that my child cut down all the leaves on the tree in front of the door, because my father said before going out that I would come back when the leaves fell off. The leader heard that the child The reason for cutting the leaves is that the whole tree is burned. Later, Donnie Yen broke his arm, and the adoptive father was aggressive. The two fought a duel. The relationship between the adoptive father and son is very deformed and cannot be explained. In the Cantonese version, the dubbing of these people is rather strange. The costumes of the Seventy-two Dishas should be from ethnic minorities, but the protagonists in the film all speak Cantonese. The two fugitives who were killed spoke Mandarin, Chiguoguo's cultural aggression.


Finally, put forward a separate paragraph and write about my favorite Tang Wei. In the beginning, it was said that Takeshi Kaneshiro asked her if Donnie Yen had seen the man before you, and Tang Wei replied that the man before me left, but he left suddenly but with a premeditated plan. He even took away his favorite pillow. Such a person I am now Men don't need to know each other, so now I don't ask about Liu Jinxi's past. I'm afraid he will leave if I ask. In the middle of the 72-year-old aunt Hui Yinghong came to ask for someone and then hung up. When I got home, Tang Wei was heartbroken. If you didn't see me for the first time, would you stay, and anything else. Women get married and start a family just to get rid of their bloody past. The implication is that we really have no feelings between us? When I saw this, I was thinking, where should this echo be placed, for example, will Tang Wei say that you have to leave without saying goodbye like my previous man? The results were similar, and I was so moved. The end of the film is that the dust has settled. One morning, after repeating a bunch of chores at the beginning of the film, Donnie Yen packed his package and was ready to go out. Tang Wei told him to see you in the evening, which was touching (this probably doesn't seem to be an open ending). Tang Wei's role is very full, which is why I give five stars to the feelings. It would be nice if this was just a simple love story, I'm so refreshing.
