For example, this Tsui Hark's Seven Swords, if you insist on scoring objectively, on average, at most, it is barely passing, but I love it very much. With the shapes of Yulong and Tianpu, plus the fighting in the film is remarkable, plus Donnie Yen's role that amazes me, so I gave the four stars
a two-hour version, I don't know. What was the reason for the editing in the later stage, even a story with clear clues could not be told clearly and there were many doubts. In the middle of the process, there are some inexplicable and
crazy cuts. The consequence of the cut is that the story cannot be coherent and continuous, and some plots are abrupt and redundant, more than the
picture they are referring to. At the
beginning, the black and white background highlights emphasize the dazzling red, which has a slightly Sin City feeling but it is real It's a bit nondescript
. Reply to the dim tone of the picture after the 256-color display feels very good The second goalkeeper just came out of a Japanese manga... I rolled my eyes on the spot, especially the lady's shape, just like the visual girl Vocal in the rock comics, the expression is extremely strange and coquettish The most love is the seven swords , especially Yulong, is so beautiful that my heart trembles~ Although it is still very Japanese comic style , my impressions of several characters are as follows (according to the degree of love) Donnie Yen's appearance prevented me from changing channels. All the characters have gone out of shape, but this Chu Zhaonan is full of charm, which made me fall in love with his rebelliousness and sexiness without hesitation. Although his hair was in rags, his untamed wild wolf-like eyes made my heart tremble. Ah~~
With the guarantee of Donnie Yen's professional background, there is no need to say about his skills. The action design is in line with the character's personality, fast, accurate, and powerful, without redundant actions; there are very few lines, and most of them are short sentences with cherishing words, fully taking care of Donnie Yen's non-standard
Compared with Liming's Yang Yuncong, Donnie Yen's Chu Zhaonan has few lines, but it doesn't seem out of place. The details are still very careful to go
out and Wuzhuang's first sword to explain is very simple. There are only a few sentences, and the camera does not show his face, but emphasizes the strong hands that are clenched by the keel joints, which makes people wonder, what kind of person is this master?
The scene with Liu Yufang only made the outline of Chu Zhaonan clear:
a bowl of the enemy's blood encouraged the girl's depressed mood, she stood by without words and watched
the sharp wolf-like eyes when the sword was retracted and sheathed.
In this film, Chu Zhaonan should actually be a very gentle person who doesn't express himself. Usually, swordsmen take their swords as their fate and never let others touch their weapons, but he calmly lets the little girl draw the sword
. The light lit up, those lonely and arrogant eyes, the girl who had a sweetheart fell...
(Donnie Yen's performance was a little too much, his face was tense, but it was much better than Yang Yuncong's never-ending inaction and facial paralysis. There are many
rival scenes with Jin Damei, and the emotional communication is a little jerky, but I can barely accept
the blunt and angry rebuke of Luzhu, who is also humble but willing to be a slave, and a slap in the face wakes her up (actually hitting a woman... but I hate it. When she was suspected of being a traitor, she defended her .
When she turned around, the faces of the two almost collided. He looked at her lightly, with a slight smile on his lips (I immediately fainted... Wannian Bingshan suddenly showed warmth His look, oh my god, that's called a spring blossom...)
Take her to Wangxiang
, give solid and powerful support and hug him when she is panicking, and
the way of expressing his feelings is direct and simple like a child, with domineering and undeniable shrewd
Because the story was cut horribly, I really don't understand the final development of the plot between them...Is it a suspicion, a betrayal, or a design? !
On the contrary, the connection with the other six of Qijian seems to be very weak. Is it to pave the way for the deterioration of Chu Zhaonan in the sequel? But here Tou Chu speaks very vigorously, as if he is the boss of the leading army.
The fight with Feng Huo Liancheng is very exciting. It is said that the effect is better in the theater. It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to experience
Donnie Yen's skills. I can't say it. , especially in the face of the wind and fire, with hostile provocation and murderous breath that is slightly audible like a snake spitting letter, and a mocking and hunting look with a primitive attacking instinct like a beast (I can't stand it, it turns out that Donnie Yen can be so sexy)
After the fight Straightforward and ruthless "nonsense", Brother Chu, I adore you~~~
(Then the camera turned to dawn, and I was directly embarrassed before I had time to dare)
Such a silent and powerful man... …
Fight and Fire, the villain’s big boss, Sun Honglei’s performance is quite
brilliant, his obsession with the green beads, and his brutality towards his subordinates is terrifying, but this villain has a deep understanding of human nature, and many actions and words are full of thinking and philosophy. I bargained with the prince calmly and calmly. Before the war, I felt that I would no longer feel innocent when I was a child when I grew up,
and my actions were the same as the characters.
Oh right, that "wasting food" made me laugh to death.
Mu Lang and Xin Longzi were just bundled and sold. , they are both active together, the two of them are very handsome with swords, Mu Lang is more accompanying, Xin Longzi is more wild, their scenes are not too much, but they are still a
few female characters I like, Yu Fang, Wu Yuanying , Luzhu, although the focus is different in the film, but the feeling is similar, they all experience inner torment and struggle, love or not love, fear of loss, and the actors perform in the same way, they are all a little neurotic (Could it be Tsui Hark? Director's request?) And a few characters don't feel particularly outstanding, unable to compete with the aura of male characters.
PS Yang Caini's Mandarin is really...it's very painful to endure...
Lu Yi...don't say anything...the acting is mediocre, and the martial arts moves are awkward...
Master Fu, a skinny little old man, sometimes feels like he has a strong sense in his chest, and sometimes he doesn't feel assertive. I feel that the
first protagonist is actually Dawn, which is really embarrassing. I
don't deny that this gentleman has beautiful eyebrows, but those eyes are really big and lacking in spirit, and the whole character is dumbfounded. In addition to the really bad acting skills, I almost turned off the machine several times
- the first shot, my eyes were dull looking at an unknown place, the whole face was not angry
- the first line, hard, It directly ruined my mood to watch the movie. All the lines were so rigid that they directly isolated me from the story and couldn't get into the movie. The two scenes with Xiaowu were inexplicable, and several rival scenes with Hua Zhao that should have been brilliant were ruined. The Nianbai and the paralyzed face that cannot be blown by the eight winds... The ambivalence about killing the father is called a stiff...
- The rag hat on the head pops out, and the shape similar to the ancient inn amusing me I couldn't stop laughing, but when the camera turned and I heard the report from my subordinates, I realized that it was because I didn't know, and Yang Yuncong's children's shoes were HLL's scholar style ~ It seems that the clothes hanger is wrong, no matter how beautiful it is, it can't be on the table...
- Martial Arts Shot , I was directly -_____-|||,
how did such a sluggish guy kick tiles on the roof after Xin Longzi, Mu Lang and Chu Zhaonan's amazing skills? ! The clumsiness of the movements was astonishing, and the pawns in the midst of the storm were extremely hard at the bottom to hug their heads and mice to show how strong Li Yuncong's legs were. I just wondered how his movements were so clumsy, how he didn't fall off the building after kicking his N foot...
In the end, his skills against Feng Huo Liancheng were simply terrible to watch. Feng Huo Liancheng's eyes were full of madness and violence, and he was greeted by the same dumb eyes as always... That shot was actually quite long, and I couldn't help but feel flustered...
Fortunately, the script Li Yang Yuncong quickly gave up the sword to Chu Zhaonan, saving me from watching the miserable situation of classmate Liming's hard-working sword swinging and Feng Huo Liancheng PK...
If you consider the fact that Dawn is the male protagonist, the evaluation of the whole movie will be reduced by two stars... It can be seen that his skills are profound. The
other twelve goalkeepers, shrimp soldiers and crab generals plus everyone in Wuzhuang, I'm sorry, I really don't have much to write about.
In short, Compared with Tsui Hark's previous works, Qijian should be very good in sound and light effects, but other aspects are no longer the same.
To reiterate, the four stars are for Donnie Yen and You Longjian~~
