Violent aesthetics, bloody battle to the end!

I don’t understand why the title is called Tom Yum Goong. It is probably a term for Muay Thai. Because I haven’t seen Boxing Fighter, I don’t know much about Muay Thai. When I heard about these two movies before, I always thought it was a ring match. So I didn’t pay too much attention to it. Later, when "Slaying the Wolf" was published in Hong Kong, I saw that many people were comparing Tom Yum Kung with it, so I remembered to download it and have a look. As a result, it was completely replaced by another one. Deeply hit by the violent aesthetics, you can see heartily and passionately! !
If Lao Wu’s violent aesthetics highlights a "cool" formal beauty, and loves to use leather clothes, sunglasses, white dove religious music to highlight a shock, Tom Yum Goong's violent aesthetics should be reflected in a "truth", and this One thing I think should be the most valuable part of kung fu movies. Modern movies are under the impact of computer special effects. Directors and actors are getting lazy. Using computers to design some effects to fool the audience, until we also have visual fatigue, just like actors acting more and more. The more it looks like "acting", a lot of true emotional expressions have been forgotten by us, and the action design in Tom Yum Kung is not completely formal. Its coolness is based on reality, so its fighting scenes will be So shocking.
Due to the limitations of actors, the film cannot expand more space in the plot. In private, I think that tony has no big future in acting. As far as the current situation is concerned, it is just a martial artist. So Tom Yum Goong puts aside the story All of his energy is used in action design. It can be said that this energy is not in vain. At least it is very successful in this aspect. With so many fighting scenes and so many thugs, basically I don’t feel bored yet, of course. It is attributed to the types of martial arts, scenes, and the various aspects of drawing materials, but I think there is another aspect, that is, the plot also plays a certain role. The story tells a story about maintaining the ecological environment. Aqin lives with himself in order to save The elephant’s fraternity and well-off, all the way from Bangkok to Sydney, although the film does not have too many emotional explanations, but for every caring person, it is enough to be deeply moved by the cuteness of Thai elephants, so in the psychological I have been paying attention to their safety with the protagonist in the past, fighting and searching with tony. With this factor, some actions and repetitions in scene design may be ignored. Like a golden skeleton, Xiaokang was thrown out of the window by a few strong men, and the anger of the audience and Aqin was ignited to the apex. At this time, every punch and leg of his was made on behalf of the audience, so there will be more A hearty feeling, so for such a long movie that is almost all fighting, its success should be inseparable from the emotional promotion of the plot.
The theme of the movie is very deep. It is the most popular one to protect nature and maintain ecology. The plot is also tortuous. The relationship between the characters involves the private sector, the government, the police, the underworld, business, etc. If it is shot in Hong Kong or Hollywood, it will be one This is a very rich drama, and maybe there will be another Infernal Affairs 1.2.3, haha, in short, such a story is a waste of being a successful husband film, and there should be a lot of room for expansion.

    In the whole film, he played one person and a group, and the plot was quite satisfactory; in addition, there was a long shot of nearly 15 minutes, and the camera position kept moving with Tony Jia. He followed the circular staircase from the first floor to the second floor, and the second floor From the third floor to the top floor, nearly 100 people participated in the performance in the whole process, and the scheduling was difficult to imagine. It can be seen that the director and cinematographer are very good
