Ambitious costume films have always been indispensable to show Chinese Kungfu, but the fancy moves and special effects that violate the laws of physics usually degrade the movie. I am not spraying Chinese Kungfu, but I believe everyone knows that these can only be used for fighting and not for fighting. The most recent female General of the Yang Family is a negative teaching material. Although it’s not a big deal to arrange a martial arts performance for dozens of minutes in a movie, directors who are truly sincere and don’t want to stimulate the audience’s adrenaline to get the box office or fool foreigners do not need this kind of unnecessary gimmick. The few fights that appeared in "Jing" were unpretentious and full of strength, but this obviously could not meet the needs of the Chinese people more than a decade ago, so a few years later, another movie with the theme of Assassin Qin Hengkong After it was born, thousands of people were empty, and several great martial artists performed together so that the film squeezed into the foreigner's imdb250. Director Triumph started a self-examination!
Going a little further, and back to the topic, the reason why "Jing" is a good movie still needs constant comparison. The scene of Prince Dan returning to the country of Yan, the vast land, there is no soundtrack, only the sound of the wind, Prince Dan jumped out of the carriage, and shouted at a loss, "Shepherd! This sheep belongs to the country of Yan?" Then he cried bitterly... so powerful. The camera was enough to squirm at Fa Ge and Hu Mei. Recalling "Confucius" at the beginning of the previous year, Fa Ge also returned to his hometown after many years of separation. Accompanied by a tragic symphony, one step at a time, he knelt on his knees with the climax of the music: "The country of Lu who gave birth to me and raised me! I'm back!" "...At that time, I saw this scene because although Brother Zhaofa meant that we should be touched by Xuan Di Si Liu, not crying is not a human being, but I admit that I was laughing at the time! Sure enough, TV drama directors only have the means of TV dramas.
Regarding Li Xuejian's role in winning politics, I think it is one of the best roles in the film. Many commentators mentioned that the first adjective of Li Xuejian's King Qin was wretched. In their eyes, the Emperor Qin who unified the world should be majestic and majestic, with the sun and the moon in mind, and the pressure from all directions without anger and self-prestige. They will of course be disappointed, because every capable tyrant has such an image in the hearts of the people, including the one still hanging on the front door of the Forbidden City. But as redpig said in the previous comment, "In line with Director Chen’s ambition to shoot a Shakespeare-like historical drama, he is sometimes a certain king with aspirations higher than the sky, sometimes like a beaming clown, sometimes like a child, innocent and cowardly, sometimes like a child. Cruel and bloodthirsty." I believe that every tyrant who has killed his life must be dark in his heart, but there is no true description of them. It is hard to imagine what Mao said and behaved in his own room. A few years later, Chen Daoming played the role of King Qin in another movie about Assassin Qin. Everyone is finally happy. This is the first emperor in their eyes, the king who "builds the Great Wall to benefit the country and the people"! Director Triumph only believes in the masses from now on!
The revision of the history in the film is just right. Jing Ke knew that it was a trap to go to the Palace of Qin to add to the tragic and majestic color of this move. This is the director of Triumph, and it also played a role in the later "Orphan of Zhao". The film also has a lot of flaws, and it is completely unnecessary to let Yingzheng pretend to be a soldier on the battlefield and tear it down. It's too fake.
In short, Chen Daoqin did his best to produce such a masterpiece with all his hard work, but the box office was bleak and the curses continued. A few years later, Director Zhang said to him, "Song, the movie should be like this...". Director Chen was completely speechless after seeing the film. From then on, he only believed in the market and only the people. You girls and boys don’t know Li Xuejian and Wang Zhiwen, right? I'll give you Nicholas Tse Cecilia Cheung another stick, Zhang Dongjian; you like beautiful pictures and cool stunts, don't you? I'll show you to Shangri-La to see the scenery, it's beautiful enough, don't worry, there are more than 100 million yuan of special effects waiting for you; what should I do if I don't understand the story? Don't be afraid, ask my wife to make up a story, so that you guys who grew up watching the brain-disabled TV series are satisfied! ! !
A few more years later, "The Promise", the first wonderful flower in Chinese film history was born, and Chen Dao also made it into the ranks of directors with a box office of 100 million yuan.
