The overall style of the film is like Hong Kong's martial arts films in the 1960s and 1970s, both in terms of the use of the camera and the plot. The only thing that is commendable is the real scene and the real kung fu fight, which can also be regarded as a promotional film for Shaolin Temple. In terms of literary and drama, it's basically very complicated, and I can't watch it anymore. The final ending is rather speechless. Since you have even eaten dog meat and killed people, why can't you be with other girls?
But if you evaluate this film in the context of the times at that time, it is undoubtedly a successful commercial film. If you count from 1979, when the reform and opening up was only a few years old, the impact of this film on the audience was undoubtedly huge in terms of visual aspect and style and rhythm. It is not difficult to explain why a movie ticket costs a few cents , he can sell tens of millions at the box office, how incredible it seems now. In fact, one of the biggest features of this film is that it promotes individual heroism. This is very interesting, because combined with the social environment and social structure at that time, individual heroism was still relatively unfamiliar at that time, and even a relatively derogatory term.
On the whole, it is a Sino-Hong Kong joint venture film, so it is not difficult to explain why it has a complete industrial film structure, because at that time, martial arts films were very, very mature in Hong Kong. Let me talk about casting, Jet Li and this movie are a match made in heaven. At that time, Jet Li was young and had real skills, and he looked very handsome. In today's words, he was just a little fresh meat. The movie Shaolin Temple and Jet Li made each other's achievements. Looking back, can't our Chinese movies make better martial arts films than Shaolin Temple? Don't rub it on other people's Hong Kong movies. The most dazzling era of Hong Kong martial arts films must have been 97 years ago. This phenomenon is very interesting. This question is not listed for the time being, otherwise there will be a lot of fifty cents coming out. bite me. I personally think that the film is successful in many ways. There were both the maturity of the Hong Kong film structure at that time and the efforts of the mainland. Objectively speaking, these two aspects complement each other in the Shaolin Temple.
Another aspect also shows once again that a good movie is made by different people or different arts. They have done their best in the category they are familiar with, and the work that comes out must be A good work. The film she is complex, it is both a commodity and a work of art. How to be entertaining, but also take into account its artistry and humanistic care, this is the problem to be solved by the film to become a classic. Shaolin Temple, I dare not say that it is a classic good movie, but it at least has its unique touch in the history of Chinese movies. In another 20 or 30 years, if we watch it again, we will still find it interesting. enough. To sum up with a line from Master Xing, Shaolin Kung Fu is so good, so good. Shaolin Kung Fu is strong enough, and the system is strong enough!
