Seven people are the saviors of Wuzhuang and the guardians of justice. With their own reasons, they started a fierce death battle with Feng Huo Liancheng and others, who were sent by the imperial court.
It's been a long time since I watched a martial arts movie, and my memory still vaguely stays in Zhang Yimou's "Hero" and Jin Xingzhu's "Samurai". Although Tsui Hark does not have the former's gorgeous shots and the latter's simple narrative, it has its own wonderful implications, waiting for the audience to discover and ponder and taste.
He is worthy of being a martial arts master in Hong Kong film circles. I dare not say that this work is his best, but he still has his unique personal style reflected in the details of the film. It's neat, straight to the point.
I really appreciate the part about the killing of Feng Huo Liancheng and others. The original bloody picture is delineated by the broken red lantern, the dust flying all over the sky and the sound of suona. It is particularly worth mentioning that the twelve goalkeepers under Fenghuo Liancheng, those perverted and numb eyes, and the vicious and vicious murder methods have successfully created each and every half-orc. They have gradually become simple in the long-term killing and bloodthirsty, with the most primitive desire for their prey, exuding a breath that can't wait to catch, and their survival instinct is vividly interpreted. Especially Guageluo, the mutant distortion and crazy animal nature can also be beautiful, which was originally one of the elements in everyone's heart. Liang Yusheng is good at digging out the things deep in human nature, but Tsui Hark just magnifies it. The ugly is often real, and the real is profound.
Speaking of which, I have to mention Feng Huo Liancheng. I have read many comments on "Seven Swords", and he is the most eye-catching. The popularity is high, and the limelight even overshadows the seven positive characters. It's not surprising to think about it, Sun Honglei's superb acting skills and controversial personality are enough to explain everything. He is the harbinger of death, the messenger of hell, with a blade in a pool of blood and slaughtering laughter. Like Shura, he built a road paved with corpses in the flames, just to find an exit.
Wind and Fire is crazy and emotional, but also calm and rational. He will calmly speak philosophical and profound words while wiping the tip of the knife that still has residual heat and blood, and his serene and serene appearance is like that of a saint. People with such diametrically opposed attributes must have suffered huge trauma, like a quenched sword. The stimulation after the first time is permanent numbness and indifference, and it is invincible from then on. His murmurs, his struggles, his indifference, his inadvertence. . . It's all covered up in a majestic pride and conceit, which is unmistakably disgusting and involuntarily distressing.
There seems to be some confusion in the play, and I have never understood the relationship between Feng Huo Liancheng and Chu Zhaonan and Luzhu. Before Feng died, he smiled and said to Chu: "Actually, you are the same as me." What is the same, the love for Luzhu, the firmness of his belief, or something else? Unknown, many people are quite puzzled by this. Worth mentioning, the benevolent see benevolence and the wise see wisdom.
If Feng Huo Liancheng is a mischievous child who does whatever he wants, then the seven heroes are obviously more painful than him. Because they can't be so selfish, their beliefs, the mission on their shoulders, and the expectations of the people are doomed to their helplessness and forbearance, and it is precisely because of this that they are greater.
Under Yang Yuncong's seemingly calm and calm appearance, there is a bloody revenge for killing his father. He has escaped for so long with revenge or not, but after all, fate has not given him any more time. As Master Huiming said, he should also go down the mountain when he was summoned in the dark. Learn your own story through the people who saved Wuzhuang. Liming grasped Yang's character very well, and the elegant atmosphere of arrogance and the hidden blood of revenge perfectly fit. The more you wander, the more painful it is, but the tolerance and fraternity will gradually mature in each inner torment, until it is truly let go because of the great love.
Wu Yuanying has the perseverance and strength that are rare in women. Under the seemingly weak and thin appearance, there is hardness and strength in the bones. Only know to move forward, never compromise, Ning Yu can't be broken. With innate stubbornness, he insisted on his own perseverance. Yang Caini's poor Chinese just happened to highlight Wu's stubborn side, which is the so-called unintentional insertion of willows and willows. This clear and sturdy woman should have been cooking and doing laundry like other women in the village, waiting for her working husband to come home. But as Yang Yuncong said to her: "Not everyone uses the sword on the Tianshan Mountains." Since it was chosen by fate, they can only fight for survival.
Chu Zhaonan has always felt mysterious to people. He is too low-key and reserved, hiding too much of his past. However, everyone knows that the more hidden it is, the more unbearable the memory will be. In countless cruel experiences, he has honed his strength and tenacity until he is invincible. Just like what he said to Yu Fang: "You won't be afraid if you drink the blood of the enemy." Donnie Yen's eyes were deep and round, and everything was kept silent. He tried to selectively forget, but as soon as he took the first step to escape, he was called back by Master Huiming to save the common people. As the master said: "Although you are still in retreat, you must go this time." Therefore, even if the heart water still does not stop, you must pack up and go on the road and continue the unfinished recuperation.
Xin Longzi is a child who grew up in a wolf's den without his parents since he was a child. The wind and sand in Lanzhou blew out his stoic contours. He followed his brothers to the battlefield because of the enthusiasm of the youth. All the way for the loyalty of the two ribs, fortunately.
Although Mu Lang is a native of Yangzhou, he has no such softness. Perhaps because he left his hometown too early to study and cultivate with Master Huiming, he was at ease. Zhibang asked him why he was always laughing, but he still laughed and said, "No reason, no worries, why are you unhappy?" The young man, who is as happy as Xin Longzi, draws his sword and walks with him, so happy.
Master Fu Qing used to be the lackey of the court, and like Feng Huo Liancheng, he had done many bad things of murder and arson. One day my conscience will discover that I will try my best to make amends for myself. Liu Jialiang's acting skills are very old-fashioned, and he can easily bring out the accumulation of those years and changes. Even in the midst of life and death, blood and tears, he is carrying out the redemption and baptism of his soul without any remorse or hesitation.
Han Zhibang was originally a horse releaser in Wuzhuang, and by chance, he was included in the Seven Swords team together with Yuanying. Old and simple, he just wanted to let go of his horse and marry the owner's daughter, Yu Fang. Lu Yi changed the protagonist's sharpness to the ordinary interpretation of the common people naturally. But the sudden killing made them acquainted with Zhaonan, and he has to fight for his love with himself from now on.
It is not enough to have ideals, morals, and brotherhood. How can it be considered a complete martial arts drama without the lingering love of sons and daughters? So there are Liu Yufang and Luzhu.
Thinking about it carefully, the emotion of this film is also worth pondering.
The first is Zhibang and Yu Fang. Originally Yuanying, but her personality is too strong and does not need the meticulous care and care of Zhibang. So they finally got together with Yu Fang, and Zhang Jingchu interpreted the softness of the little girl just right. Her soft and gentle little bird Yiren makes Zhibang's sense of responsibility and achievement as a man unprecedented satisfaction. But she never thought that Zhao Nan's appearance disturbed Yu Fang's initially peaceful heart. It's not that I don't yearn for it, I just didn't know it existed. It's not the gentle care of Zhibang, the constant inseparability and the rubbing of ears and temples. Instead, the cold light of the dragon shone on the stern eyes hidden under the hat. His powerful voice did not calm down, but told her that she would no longer be afraid after drinking the blood of the enemy. In the event of danger, Zhibang will protect her, while Zhaonan tells her how to protect herself. Zhibang gave her the temperature of her skin, while Zhaonan taught her to use cold weapons to awaken the blood in her body. It is another one who planted flowers intentionally but did not bloom, and planted willows and willows inadvertently. Yu Fang understands everything. For her, Zhibang is love, and Zhaonan is the responsibility of a chivalrous person. It is because of not love that it is so natural, how is it possible to change to green beads. A brief moment of sadness is relief.
Then there are Showan and Luzhu. Kim So-yeon's acting skills are very good, and a character with such a complex inner heart is still able to perform with ease, and her cooperation with Donnie Yen is also quite tacit. In fact, their relationship is not so much love as it is family, at least because of family. The two people who met by chance are both Koreans living in China, and they both have experience as slaves. After feeling pity for each other with the same disease, they sympathize with each other, as they should have nothing to say. Lvzhu's life experience, which is like a swaying grass in the wind, is afraid that only the rock-solid Zhaonan can appease it. Missing too much love, experiencing too much suffering, only those who have followed the same trajectory will finally come together. Without him, just because the other party is the only one.
Finally, Yun Cong and Yuan Ying. Unexpectedly, Yun Cong's father is also the head of the Tiandihui, and he did not expect that his father's enemy was actually the father of Yu Fang, a friend who grew up with Yuanying. He is such a light-hearted person who is full of poetry and books, and he never speaks in a hurry, which makes her feel at ease. What's more important is that when she is irritable and depressed, she will always be rational and emotional to her, and patiently point and comfort her. Her stubbornness and determination were like ice under the sun in front of him, melting one by one. She wanted to get close to him and follow him. Just like Zhaonan and Luzhu, those who can rely on each other to keep warm are often those who are injured. Because they know the pain, they know how to heal and cherish.
In fact, everyone has the desire for love and the fear of death, which is fortunate because there is concern.
When it comes to worrying, there is another scene that really makes people move. In order to lure away the enemy, Zhibang had to use his beloved horses as bait and let him be fooled. Accompanied by Mu Lang, his face was full of reluctance, as if abandoning his own child. He choked up to Mu Lang: "Laifu is old and has a stubborn temper. Let me give him the last ride." As soon as he drove them away, Zhibang quickly ran back and shouted: "Come on, it's back!" The old horse named Laifu turned around and left the horses and ran towards Zhibang again. They hid in the grass and watched it go round and round the open plain like a lost child. Wandered for a long time before leaving. At this time, even Mu Lang was heartbroken. At that moment, when I saw Zhibang pretending to be calm, how heart-wrenching it must have been.
Because there is love, there is pain, and because of pain, the beauty, magic, greatness, and immortality of love are revealed.
The whole film is full of love, righteousness, benevolence and love.
Because of these, the powerful and almost impossible to destroy Feng Huo Liancheng was finally killed, and the children of Wuzhuang were so united that they lived and died together with Yu Fang in the days when the Seven Swords were away, and even got rid of them. Traitor.
At the end, Master Fu Qing said: "Wind and Fire is dead, but the ban on martial arts is still in place. They will send more experts. This battle is not over yet." Yang Yuncong said: "We will go to Beijing to find the emperor and ask him to lift the ban on martial arts."
Indeed, This battle is not over.
The Seven Swords are still fighting for justice, faith and mission.
Love, righteousness, benevolence, and love are also unfinished.
The fun continues, the victory continues. . .
