Seven Swords should be pure realism, whether it is in the part of martial arts or the part that highlights the rivers and lakes. I have read the comments that Tsui Hark's seven swords can't be called martial arts, so I want to ask, what is martial arts, is the hero's unbelievably beautiful kung fu a martial arts. True martial arts is a very broad definition. In my opinion, how can Qijian not be called martial arts? Very realistic scenes, almost hand-to-hand movements, although sometimes it seems that Qijian is a bit bloody, but But it is a real fight, much better than those so-called artistic competitions and flying in the sky.
Many people like to compare Seven Swords and Heroes together. When it comes to Seven Swords and Heroes, I prefer Seven Swords. I prefer things in a realistic style, which feel more real. With flesh and blood, it returns to the true nature of martial arts and at the same time kills a stern sword energy, and things that are too aesthetically pleasing to the hero always feel a little empty, but there is one thing that cannot be denied, the picture of the hero is really beautiful.
It's not because I like cruelty, but I really like the killing scene at the beginning of Seven Swords. There are strong contrasting reds and cool grays. This becomes a visual shock, and this shock makes the red more vivid and the gray more gloomy. An opposing social relationship is clearly interpreted in the contrast of these two colors. The only fly in the ointment here is the blurring of the blood scene. I don’t know if Chinese movies cannot accept violent aesthetics, or whether Chinese audiences cannot accept violent aesthetics. Then there is the scene when the six of the seven swords are going to rescue Chu Zhaonan, the yellow sand is flying on the ground, and the meteor is falling in the sky at this time. I never thought that Tsui Hark could create such a mood on the basis of pure realistic martial arts. thing, very beautiful.
Probably due to the long time constraints of the film, I always felt that Qijian was incapable of portraying the characters, so that many of the plot developments after the event became a bit abrupt and inexplicable. I wanted to make the seven people's portrayal clever in two and a half hours. Refinement is a little more difficult. As for the seven swords in the seven swords, it seems that the explanation is a little unclear. Before reading the seven swords, I specially asked friends who have read the original book to understand a little bit about it. However, Mr. Xu also said that there will definitely be a sequel to Seven Swords, so I am not afraid that he will not say enough.
Purely speaking of swords, friends who have seen Seven Swords say that they like the Yulong sword in it, and the sword is matched with the dragon. But I prefer the Sword of Shelter, although it is bulky, it makes people feel solid. There are also Qijian actors, who are basically acting in their true colors, so there is nothing to say. It is similar to the image in the impression, and there is nothing particularly outstanding, but Sun Honglei's funny is quite individual.
