why would you say so?
Watching Spartan King Leonidas lead a group of muscular men who pursue physical supremacy. This kind of supremely strong style that believes in "masculinity" as Guixiao is my favorite pelican flavor in the previous work "300".
This Spartan style is certainly dangerous in today's scale. On the tightrope of values, Sparta, who did not hesitate to eliminate old and weak women and children, would definitely be said to be extremely arrogant! I look down on the words of the Athenians, ruthlessly say you are unworthy and refuse to the deformed children who come to surrender, and hate the Persian surrender...The word Sparta, which is full of the whole film of "300", It is not only the value of the times in a labor society, but also a class system limited to historical factors. Taking "masculinity" as the only one, is the omnipresent motif in the movie, filled with the slogans of three hundred heroes with freedom and courage, and violently sprayed the audience endlessly.
I think that the opposite of masculinity is femininity, and femininity is often borne by the heroine in the Tiehan Tenderness genre. One yang and one yin, one man and one woman, have always been there since ancient times. "300" has a bold design in the masculine plot, that is, the queen of Sparta is also "masculine."
Gorgo may be a woman, but he has the courage to hack down an adulterer congressman in public; when she slays the congressman who played with him, the camera clearly captures the look of her stepping out, that is not the Avenger. The expression on his face was exactly like Leonida's emotion in killing the Persian assassin, showing a posture of responsibility for granted.
She told the Greek Parliament: Spartan's style is like this! Women are no exception!
This vicious and decisive stab completely split the popular dichotomy between male and female yin, and warned that the "masculine" value promoted by "300" is a transcendent value that transcends gender and should even transcend gender.
It is this knife that makes Spartan’s supreme stance distinct. The first episode of opposition to Sparta, the Persian villain, can only be a very pitiful contrast to the feminine side. Everyone wears neutral accessories and exudes one. A flattering attitude, to set off how MAN Spartan's style is with only panties all over his body.
So, what about the second episode of "300: Rise of an Empire"? It's a pity that I didn't let me see such a strong and harsh "masculinity".
The protagonist, the Greek commander-in-chief, Dimitocli. From the beginning of the movie, he killed Darius with a bow and arrow, but tolerated his son Xerxes, who was next to Darius, and revealed that Dimitocli was different from Leonida's "overlord" style, but the "king" style, has the limits of his benevolence and righteousness towards the enemy. Confucian generals may have a reputation, but as a sequel to the milestone "300", they will inevitably be used to compare MAN with Leonidas. In the whole movie, he shouted his free slogans hard (the artillery is also very powerful, hehe), but unfortunately there is no such thing as Leonida's pure momentum to kill the enemy.
As for the Greek Corps he brought, let alone. How can a group of farmers, poets, and sculptors make up for killing people with the elite Spartan soldiers who exchange their sweat for their blood? Due to historical facts, this film can only be used in naval battles. Watching the bow bumping back and forth for more than 100 minutes, the first episode of "300" no longer has the myth of muscles touching the bronze body. The style is very beautiful, but it is lackluster.
The most critical finale of the film is left: Persian female player Yatmesia, as a super shrew who stood up to fight against the whole of Greece, she should have more room for women than the queen of the first episode.
Unfortunately, although the screenwriter invited Artemisia to play the Persian boss, it was not like Frank Miller would use her.
In the whole film, her image only gradually disintegrates like a sand castle.
At the beginning, she said that she was perfect, with amazing perseverance, and she was the emperor's teacher, and she was up to the sky.
At the beginning of the naval battle, I saw her sitting on the boat swaggering and cursing command, as if the old god was there. If you don't deserve the name of a heroine! Is that right? No, I will break the power soon.
The plot is transferred, when the battle is not good, she changes her strategy and invites Di Mistok to discuss surrender, but the method used is... seduction? Just looking at Eva Green's efforts to twist her waist to seduce the Greek supervisor to play wild cannon with her in exchange for his surrender, from a strategic point of view, she has completely lowered her original Persian leadership pattern.
After firing the cannon, seeing that Di Mistok's strength was not weakened, the next day he sent several times angrily warships to smash the Greek miscellaneous army with human sea tactics. The tactical content was low, and it was just like the anger of a shrew that turned into anger, and the pattern dropped again.
On the eve of the decisive battle, when the Persian King Xerxes slapped her angrily and told her to send troops to the end, the possibility of "masculinity" that this character could have had disappeared.
I’m here to simulate the scene of this scene for everyone to see:
"Let’s say that Emperor Xerxes caught Sparta at the hot spring pass, raised his hand to destroy a group of three hundred strong men, and heard that the former veteran, female general Artemisia defeated and fought again and again, and eventually beat the Greek navy to the point of breaking the tea stream, and the Greek little Zhuge Di Mistokli also tragically died in the East China Sea.
Xerxes' heart can be said to be very happy, wait for it. Don’t be in a hurry to show off the banquet, and celebrate. But before the wine was over, the spies came to the surviving tip of Di Mistok.
Xerxes was naturally full of anger! All the servants were in Dan. She stood there and did not dare to respond, but Yatmexia showed a happy face.
Xerxes couldn't bear it anymore and cursed twice: "What are you happy? When I wake up tomorrow, I will call Soldiers go south, and then cut the stubborn children."
Artemisia said: "The emperor wait a minute. Waiting for a few days, I will be able to recruit Emperor Mistok to your hair, add my Persian wings, and dominate the world. "
Xerxes said : "Why should I listen to you? I am the god of the gods, the king of kings, and I forgive you for all the
hopes , and I am only a minister." Yatmexia came up angry, ignoring his identity. , Cursed: "Xerxes, don't make your master in front of me. Don't tell you that you are like this, your father, dare not stand up with Yatmixia! It's not Yatmixia! With the power of a man-made god, you can be officials, enjoy glory, and be wealthy. Your ancestors earned this Persian family business after nine deaths. Now, instead of repaying my favor, you have become the master of me. You can do anything else without telling me. , If you talk about anything else, let's not blame the
loss of face!" Before Yatmexia's words were finished, Xerxes the Great immediately slapped him and beat Yatmexia to his knees!
Xerxes said, "You are too greedy!" The gentle and drunk general who drank beside him came over, and said: "The next battle will give me away this unruly old thing soon! Stay! Isn’t this a scourge? If your relatives and friends know about it, don’t you laugh at a country like ours, which doesn’t even have a rule of law?”
Yatmixia was so stunned that he had nothing to do with anything else, so he could only quickly apologize. Unfortunately, Xerxes has decided, and Artemisia is bound to fight Di Mistok to the point of life and death. " Have
you finished reading?
Just imagine that Artemisia is a close friend of Darius, the former senator, and Xerxes's greatest contributor to the throne. Now he is the commander-in-chief of the entire army.
There is no reason for such a status. the king was thrown slap without making a sound, only to be shot again and again to capture the face of Benjamin speechless.
this woman fell to the ground, and how to catch the first episode, "300", the Colombian fruit queen Parliamentarian Athens dare knife guts?
this It’s just a female hero who returns to attracting the audience with her body, and returns to the most traditional dichotomy between male and female.
It’s no wonder that even though there were scenes of Artemisia's hand-to-hand combat in the final battle, it did not make the final battle more manly. .
"300: rise of an Empire" from start to finish, really made me feel a sense of nostalgia, "300", is the end of the Spartans war scene.
in Leonidas dead status, the Spartans decided to join The Greek naval battle led an army to attack Persia, and the one who logged in and took the lead was - yes, it was the queen brother!
The Spartans led by the maiden saw one cut one. It was not as soft as the Greek coalition forces, and the brother directly skipped the emperor. Mistokli, without asking, he smashed the head of an oncoming Persian soldier. The badly wounded Dimystokli could only help her obediently block the stray bullets around her behind her brother.
In this scene, the "masculine" came back, and it was brought by a woman.
Sparta, too MAN!
This deep impression has completely become the aftertaste of the whole film, shaping the impression of the Greek coalition forces in the whole episode, as if it is like a gradually bleached canvas, gradually disappearing in the ending song.
Greek coalition forces, do you know what you girls are really missing?
In terms of writing martial arts, "300: Rise of an Empire" lacks the most critical blindness, and has more tasteful flavors.
The Greek coalition has all the Greek Confederation, but there is no Sparta participating in the war. It's like the situation of this film: the screenwriter has worked hard to add politics, diplomacy, naval battles, technology and new clothing to all the new elements that were not available in the previous episode, but not the most important masculine spirit of Sparta.
This may be a very style war movie, and the number of costume war movies has become less and less in recent years, so it should be cherished; however, after the heavy flavors I want to eat the most, this can also be said to be the two before and after "300". Set, is it the same dish?
