"The Children of Yellowstone"

It can be said that "The Children of Yellowstone" has inherited many elements of Hollywood commercial films. There are co-stars of Chinese and foreign stars, wonderfully edited movie trailers, heroic themes, and posters can arouse your huge appetite. However, the film suffered a fiasco at the domestic box office. Some people say that although it inherits many elements of Hollywood commercial films, it ignores an important element, that is the title of the movie. Its Chinese name makes people think it is a profound literary film. Indeed, when I saw this, I thought it had something to do with Yellowstone National Forest Park in the United States. When I thought of the poster, I thought it was a story that happened in the United States, which could easily mislead the audience. I think the main reason is the flaws of the movie, that is, the setting of the plot and characters. How come the roles of Chow Yun-fat and Michelle Yeoh seem dispensable. In particular, the soldier played by Chow Yun-fat sprang out of nowhere from time to time. It was really free. The Chinese businessman played by Michelle Yeoh is for George. He Ke and the children, at the expense of her own body, it seems that she has such a special feeling for He Ke. It is said that it is adapted from a real person. If you want to create a Bethune from the United Kingdom, you must pay attention to the principles of biopics. Under the principle of truth, proper artistic processing is also possible. It's easy to see that its processing was unsuccessful, making the film a nondescript.
