King Arthur

I watched two movies at Beiying last night. The first one was "Thunderbirds", a sci-fi blockbuster with beautiful scenery. I don't know which island it was filmed on, and the water was unbelievably blue. As an entertainment film, the whole movie is a little underwhelming in terms of plot. Compared with other similar movies, the old-fashioned shooting techniques and the less exciting plot, especially the last third, clearly show that the director has more than enough heart. Insufficient power.

The latter movie is King Arthur. I have only heard the words of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, and I don’t know much about that history or myth. This is the best way to cut into the appreciation of the film itself, and get away from the image analysis of history and legends.
First of all, in the characterization of the entire film, "King Arthur" is no worse than "Troy". It also tells the story of the hero fighting for the land and the country, and also shapes the hero.
The whole film of "King Arthur" shows more of a person, his beliefs, his love, his responsibilities, and overall his performance is not bad. But in general, the concept of "King Arthur" is more like a term used to refer to Arthur and his knights, rather than just referring to Arthur himself. The hero's brush and ink are more spread on the whole of the knights, and the role of Arthur cannot be better highlighted.
I personally feel that the character of the knight who died in the last battle is more distinct. Under the light of Arthur, he can only love silently, and can only sacrifice his life to protect his lover at the most critical moment. (This actor is so handsome, with a pair of moving eyes and a perfect nose, I am drooling...) The
love in the film is sudden, I think the scene where the beauty and Arthur have sex should be put on that snowy night, the leader of the blue devil before appearing. For example, they should have sex in the woods under the moonlight and fluttering with snowflakes... After finishing the work, the beauty tidied up her clothes and stood up. Arthur was about to hold her when the Blue Devil leader appeared in the jungle. This transformation makes love appear supernatural and romantic. Having sex before the war is a little abrupt, with no foreshadowing before and no explanation afterward.
The most touching scene in the film is that there is a sword stuck on the grave of every dead knight. Heroism is brought to the extreme here. At that moment, I feel so heartbroken, I really want to go back to ancient Rome, fall in love with a knight, bear children for him...
Stories about heroes can always impress women. In our hearts, there is always a complex of following heroes, which is an endless admiration and love for strength and courage. A hero's story is beautiful, and we are so willing to immerse ourselves in this love and have no regrets to the death.
