A Father Twice Over

Mr. Jin Yong wrote in the postscript of The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: "The emotional focus of this book is not the love between men and women, but the love between men and men, the brotherly feelings of the Wudang Seven Heroes, Zhang Sanfeng to Zhang Cuishan, Xie Xun to Zhang Wuji Father and son love. However, Zhang Sanfeng saw Zhang Cuishan’s grief when he was killed, and Xie Xun’s sadness when he heard Zhang Wuji’s death. The book was too superficial, not like this in real life. Because I didn’t understand at that time."

Director Zha clearly knows what he wants to shoot for and for whom, so the final point is the relationship between Gang Bone, Aquaman, Flash and their father, which is very appropriate. Especially the steel line, the causal chain is clear, the character arc is full, and it is closely integrated with the main line, and it also links the personal lines of other partners. This story is right.

Steel Bone is the character most closely related to the mother box, so of course his personal emotional line should be used to connect the main line of the story. The director did not blindly add drama to these two solo films because of the commercial success of the two solo films, "Wonder Woman" and "Aquaman", but respected the law of the development of the story and put each character in their place. , To play their due role.

Compared with the theater version, some of the funny scenes of Aquaman and Batman have been deleted, but due to the increase in the length of the film, everyone's history is displayed more clearly. The Flash is the only atmosphere responsible, and the jokes on him are more concentrated. , So the overall laughter did not lose too much.

I used to think that Zha Dao was a very sincere director who was a little clumsy in narrative. This kind of sincerity can be exerted to the extreme when the time limit is broken, but the clumsiness can be ignored. It is completely integrated into sincerity, and it becomes a simplicity that makes people feel good.

In reality, the father who has experienced the pain of losing his daughter and child may not have the opportunity to use alien technology to bring his child back to life like Dr. Stone in the film. But by engraving the child’s name into the literary and artistic works, at least more people can know that a girl named Autumn Snyder once came here, feeling sorry for her, but also for her to rest in peace. Good blessings and prayers from the soul.
