"Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire" is the real thigh of Empress Wu! The 2010 work should be the one with the lowest proportion of special effects among the three, and it is also the one with the best narrative. This film strictly follows the usual structure of traditional suspense films. It first throws out a seemingly impossible case, and then resolves it into many suspense points from multiple angles, point and point, one by one, and integrates the final truth! It can be said that the structure is neat and the atmosphere is created in place. At the same time, it has also made new ideas in the visual presentation of the ghost city, with a strong Tsui Hark personal style! The disadvantage is that the character of Di Renjie, the protagonist, is a little weak, and his attitude towards Jinger and Empress Wu is not fully foreshadowed, and some are too facial! Maybe this is also to pave the way for the next two! 7 points! ps: Although Andy's Di Renjie is not that outstanding, it is still much stronger than Zhao Youting's version in comparison!
