Creativity does not equal strength

Earlier, "Tai Chi" was imagined as "Kung Fu", a full imitation and tribute. As a result, from the initial publicity, everyone found that Feng Delun was determined to play tricks, which greatly reduced the budget. Without too many signs, "Tai Chi" was split into three episodes, transferred to 3D and IMAX, and the money was fierce. The entire first episode is a long foreshadowing, and there is absolutely no shadow of traditional Tai Chi Kung Fu. Fortunately, Feng Delun or Chen Guofu still moved their brains, so that even if "Tai Chi" can't win, it will never lose - at least not completely. The novelty of "Tai Chi" is to introduce Hollywood's superhero growth theme, from ordinary to great, from idiot to master. From the subtitle insertion of bullet screen videos to the arrangement of various games and animations, there are also stories of land occupation and forced demolition (like the theme preferred by mainland independent films), mobile games such as Zombies vs. Vegetable People and Fruit Ninja. "Tai Chi" doesn't look like a Chinese blockbuster made by a nouveau riche, but its rustic nature cannot be concealed. The movie is full of hard-hitting jokes, boring and bad, and the goodwill that was not much has been greatly reduced.

    Mix and match ≠ mix, at least they have to be able to match. PS: There is no Master Yan Fang? ! How dare you call yourself Tai Chi without Master Yan Fang? !

    I think Von Delun has really achieved (at least close to) making an unconventional action movie. This is a very relaxing film. After watching it, I felt happy and finally swept away the after-effects of watching The Hunt yesterday. The action design is very good, the soundtrack is wonderful, and the plot is a little white, but that doesn't affect it. If you want to say a hard injury, the ending is delayed, and it is estimated that it is too much for the second part. #TIFF#
