Great movie

This is a movie that will not be forgotten by me. Those who make a score should have never watched it, because after watching this movie, there is no way to find it.
According to the current situation, a movie without a slot cannot cause controversy, and there will be no box office. On the third day of the show, when I went to see it, there were five people in the theater, me and two couples. The two couples are in the last row, and I am in the fourth row. In fact, it can be regarded as a charter.
It's a Kung Fu movie, and many fighting scenes are also correct, but the fighting is not abrupt. I was surprised by Keanu Reeves's understanding of Chinese culture, and the most pleasant surprise was that he raised the problems faced by Chinese martial arts to the confusion faced by most people in the world.
Let me talk about Chen Hu first. Many people say that he is not handsome. Indeed, compared with the current mainstream male stars, he is much inferior, with round legs, short stature, and wearing a suit like a migrant worker who goes to work in the city (there is no discriminatory meaning here, just to express the rustic flavor). However, when he wore the white satin practice clothes, I searched in my mind. At present, among Chinese male stars, I can't find a more suitable one. He is a traditional Chinese man, introverted, tolerant, and elegant, but with infinite explosive power. He changed a few sets of traditional Chinese costumes. Forgive me for not knowing much about costumes, but I can feel that he is very suitable for him.
Except that he fits the role setting very well, his eyes are very, very good. From the innocence at the beginning, the confusion and entanglement later, then the crazy loss, and finally relief. This tolerant Chinese man, his expression seldom reveals his emotions, but his eyes tell everything. But he has never forgotten his beliefs and pursuits, and his eyes have always been firm.
Then let's talk about the plot. There is no spoiler for the key plot here, just the thoughts expressed. At first the master told Lin Hu that he should meditate. At that time, Lin Hu was trying hard, but he could not do it. This was the first stage. The second time the master said he wanted to meditate, he was already lost. He told the master that meditation was useless. Relying on strength is enough, this is the second stage; at the end, he calms down himself, this is the third stage. In the first stage, Lin Hu had no experience. He didn't know what he was learning Tai Chi for. He couldn't calm down. He went to participate in a martial arts competition, trying to identify himself by looking outside; in the second stage, he thought he was Found it, at that time he was indulged in the joy of victory; in the third stage, he experienced and realized it. These three stages are actually the three processes that everyone must go through when they grow up: at the beginning, experienced people reasoned with us, but we didn’t understand; later we tried to find the answers by ourselves, maybe we would succeed, but more often Failure; when we finally experienced it, we finally got the answer we always wanted to know.
Where is the meaning? In my own heart.
It's not terrible to be lost, and it's not terrible to go the wrong way, as long as you can come back.
Keanu Reeves didn't get any good fortune. As a villain, he was also a moral and ethical villain. He didn't kill Chen Linhu with a gun or assassinated him. Instead, he told Lin Hu his purpose, as the saying goes: You must die if you die.
Finally, let’s talk about the shots. There is a long shot that is very good. It should be a template for analysis in the film class: a long shot. With the passage of the starry sky, the time transitions from night to day, continuing to take aerial shots of the entire city, and finally cut into Lin Hu’s room. . It’s worth noting that this shot is done backwards, and you don’t know where it will go or where it will end.
Said that Keanu has a great grasp of Chinese culture. In the end, we all knew that Lin Hu and the girl liked each other, but they just looked at each other affectionately, and then turned away. At that time, I thought in my heart that you guys don't do anything, it would be ruined... Fortunately, nothing happened to them...

    To be honest, the filming is not that good. The fighting cuts and image processing in many places in the middle are a bit silly~~~ The rhythm and design of the incoherent and fake beginning are also good, but with the Chinese part of the plot, it makes The overall level and feeling of the plot sank after a while~~ I also express that I am very helpless. Xiao Li's heart is good, but Ya's movements are slow enough. In the end, I can only sweat when I was killed by Turtle Immortal Bo.

    The first half exceeded expectations by a lot, and the ending was unfinished
