believe that many people go to the movies for the controversial topic of gay, Especially for the majority of female audiences, what people want to see is the pain and struggle that same-sex love can't happen. What's important is that we need to experience the "sounding" love theme of "love can be gender-neutral" from the movie. A little more beautiful pictures can meet the needs of female audiences. Two people must not be together at the end of the film. It is better to have one dead or one missing. The protagonist may not cry, but the atmosphere at this time must make the audience cry. After the film, I couldn't recover for a long time, and I felt lost for a while, as if I was the "disobedient person" who could not get love. For a gay film, this seems to be all the audience's request.
If we go a step further and advertise that our spiritual realm is much higher than that of a fangirl, we may also ask the film to talk about history, society, etc., so it seems to be complete, that is, it is entertaining and profound. .
Such a requirement is not too high. "Lan Yu" has achieved it, "Breakthrough" has achieved it, and "Brokeback Mountain" has achieved it. They are all real gay films, and they are all good films, but they are both good films. The "King's Man" under the guise of the film did not do it, which really disappointed us.
First of all, the emotional processing is too abrupt in many places and lacks foreshadowing. For example, why did Wang change his temperament when he saw Kong Ji playing the poisoned harem concubine. I don't understand; another example is Kong Ji's attitude towards the king, who made him develop feelings for the king? J is just a few nights of intimate summons? I'm afraid Kong Ji in the eyes of the screenwriter is not such a superficial person.
Secondly, Kong Ji's character creation is weak and weak, and he is set as a weak and feminine person at the beginning. No matter how superb Lee Jun Ki's acting skills are, I am afraid that this character cannot be perfected, not to mention Jun Ki's acting skills have not reached the level of perfection. . The screenwriter owes Kong Ji a transformation.
Third, the primary and secondary relationship of the whole play is unclear. After watching a movie for nearly two hours, we have no unified opinion on who is the protagonist and who is the supporting role. I personally think that Wang, who should focus on portraying the changes after encountering the clown, has always given insufficient energy in the play, like a flower fist embroidering his legs. It seems that the tricks are in place, but in fact, it is like a touch of water, and no one hits the softest key in the audience's heart. So it's not surprising that the movie ended without a drop of the expected tears.
Fourth, let’s talk about longevity. In comparison, it seems that only he is a “complete” person in the whole play, but he is only “seemly”. The shortcomings exposed to him are basically the same as Kong Ji, the characters lack changes, like a stubborn savage, insisting from beginning to end to make him more cute, but it lacks convincing, just like a person who is too perfect must be is unreal. The relationship between him and Kong Ji is also unclear. I personally think that if a little bit of his inner struggle is added, the film will look more convincing.
Finally, watch this movie from the standpoint of a fangirl (although I am not = =b), just as I said above, if you want emotional scenes without emotional scenes, if you want passionate scenes without passion scenes, you don't need anything. What's the use of only beautiful Junji~ (Flower arrangement: Jun Baobao still likes you~). Even Wang and Kong Ji's kisses have been taken, and Wang's performance has no emotion and no reason, let us fangirls like this movie~!
You see, my requirements are really not high, so ah, give you three stars and you will be happy.
