Frankly speaking, I laughed until the blood supply to my brain was a little lacking, my brain was blank and I just wanted to giggle; frankly speaking, my mind was full of only "the sun in the west is about to set, and the mountains and lakes are quiet" with the magic sound filling my ears; frankly speaking, I am now I have been kept in an endless loop by Wang Kai's "You are too irregular" and "I can't kill you" slogan; to be honest, if you ask me what movies are suitable for watching this Christmas and New Year's Day, I will definitely recommend it. Railway Flying Tiger, this is a high-quality New Year film that makes you laugh when you see it, admire in laughter, and have joy in admiration.
What is the definition of New Year's card? All-star lineup big production? Not at all! Are you laughing and laughing as a family? Not at all! Is the special effect awesome? Certainly not!
The Lunar New Year films I understand are joyful, but also meaningful. They are classics with exquisite editing and soundtracking, and at the same time, the story is clear and clear to make you smile. Railway Feihu not only fulfilled this requirement, but also did it well. Absolutely ingenious!
This film has four key words: new bottle, Jackie Chan, special effects, characters. And if you use limericks to talk about it, it is: the
story, the new bottle, the old wine, the wonderful
Jackie Chan features, the
music, the surprises, the special effects, the
characters, and the wonderful characters!
1. The new bottle is good and the old wine is wonderful. In the
past two years, everyone has been talking about IP. It seems that if it is not a big IP, then this work, whether it is a TV series or a movie, is destined to not attract attention and is destined to hit the streets. IP, Railway Guerrilla is a well-deserved big IP! This is a big IP that was widely circulated during the Anti-Japanese War. It has been a classic IP for nearly 70 years. I ask you whether you will accept it? !
In the past few years, the classic red IP movie works that have used new bottles of old wines, I have to mention Tsui Hark's "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom". I think back then, even my father who was over sixty years old was talking to me about it. Going to see the takeover of Tiger Mountain, Director Tsui Hark repackaged this classic story with a new perspective and new technical means, so that the old people can miss it, let the young people understand, and let us know those who used to be in the era of throwing their heads and shedding blood. hero.
This time, "Flying Tigers on the Railway" is here again, and it is still a repackaging of old wines in new bottles of classic IP.
This is a familiar story, a group of little people hiding by the Weishan Lake. They are usually traders and pawns and ordinary people in the market, but who said that little people can't have big dreams. The legend that the Japanese army was afraid of.
The old wine itself has the mellow fragrance accumulated over the years and the respect of the Chinese people for the patriotic feelings, and this new bottle is the characteristic of the kung fu comedy that Jackie Chan's movies have accumulated over the years that will make you laugh. It is Director Ding Sheng's pursuit of the script and the camera, and it is the passionate interpretation of Huang Zitao, Wang Kai, Wang Dalu and other new forces with both popularity and strength that have flourished in the past two years...
This old wine stick, this new one. The bottle is good, I have eaten this Amway, and I want to buy it for more people!
2. Jackie Chan's characteristics
The salient features of Jackie Chan's films are action comedies and lone heroes. From "Zodiac" a few years ago to today's "Flying Tigers on the Railway", the eldest brother has started different attempts. In these two films , he is no longer single-handed, he began to form a group with his friends to serve the country with loyalty.
This film still continues the characteristics of Big Brother's Kung Fu. This time is different from the past. In the past, Big Brother was able to move left and right in a cramped space. This time, the cramped space has become a more imaginative inside and outside the train, inside and outside the arsenal! The change of this location makes the eldest brother's kung fu more interesting. When the train encounters a fight, when the speed and kung fu are combined, it is really surprising. The Married Family Class also tailored unique kung fu features to other actors.
Wang Kai: Sharpshooter, as soon as he appeared in his action scenes, he was like a magic weapon. Just like the widely circulated posters that everyone saw, he chased the train on horseback and rescued those who he thought were "too irregular". Flying Tigers. Then in the next action design, his long legs and beautiful hands have other wonderful performances under the settings of "Sharpshooter" and "Regular Army".
Huang Zitao: He is agile with his hands, and he has him up and down, giving full play to the flexibility of his dancing background. Several scenes of climbing and jumping on the train are amazing.
Jaycee Chan: His action style continued with Jackie Chan. He fought with Zhang Lanxin for several rounds in the locomotive. He was very "Jackie Chan".
Sang Ping: A tall and strong fat man, his movements should be slow and interesting, and at the same time he will become the mainstay in terms of strength. The train is diverted and the Japanese army is taken down. Although several movements are slow, they make the action scenes look more Rich.
Wu Yonglun: Frankly speaking, I am very impressed with him! The action actor who was born in martial arts is really skilled! His neat skills show the true nature of kung fu, stare at the bottom of the train, his waist and legs are admirable at a glance!
Wang Dalu: I'm sorry I put the big country at the end. Although he has few appearances and few action scenes, his sentence "I order you to leave" and the posture of picking up the gun really have the temperament of the Eighth Route Army!
Having said so much, I just want to say that the kung fu comedy with the background of the married class will not disappoint. Everyone has their own characteristics, and every action is endless. At the end of the year, we don't just want to watch this kind of lively. What?
3. Music surprises with high special effects
The BGM of this film is amazing! real! The magic sound fills the ears and loops endlessly! Teacher Laozai's arrangement is really not a cover, he made a new trick to the traditional music, mixed a variety of musical instruments throughout the intense part of the whole film! A good movie must have an impressive BGM, remember the Dangdang at the end of "Ace Agent", remember "In the Mood for Love" and so on, you may not expect such a New Year's comedy , there is actually a BGM that makes you lingering! Salute to Director Ding Sheng and Teacher Laozai!
I only mentioned Director Ding Sheng now. This is really a logical loophole in my film review! (But I don't want to adjust the structure, it's very late after all) The film is still a strong director of Ding Sheng's characteristics! Tough guy style, brilliant man play, hand-held camera, sports mode, tight editing, Director Ding uses his consistent style to make this story lively and interesting, and at the same time makes people burst into tears with laughter, master, master!
What's more commendable about this film is that it was mentioned in the previous report - the special effects are all made in China. Frankly speaking, I am still not optimistic about the so-called "all made in China" under the "flickering" of many "big productions" and "all CG". However, when the awesome scenes of the film crashing into trains and blowing up bridges flashed loudly in front of my ears, I could only blame myself for being a frog in the bottom of a well.
Two trains and a bridge are all made with real props in a one-to-four ratio and supplemented by special effects. This sincerity is enough to be admired, not to mention the effect displayed is surprisingly good, I just want to say - really It's really different!
Fourth, the characters are wonderful!
The previous article has already analyzed several Flying Tigers from the perspective of action, so I won't repeat them here, but I still sigh at Director Ding Sheng's precise casting. Each of these Flying Tiger team members is very in line with the characteristics of the "miscellaneous army" - the naive Sang Ping, the honest Wu Yonglun, the cute and bloody Huang Zitao, the funny Fang Zuming - this is not the most common in the market. What did the people at the bottom look like at that time? Although they were small people, they were also moved by the sacrifice of the Eighth Route Army, and they resolutely started this "big ticket" plan, knowing that there might be no return.
The role of Jackie Chan's eldest brother is richer and more interesting this time. He has a little hope for love, is a reliable eldest brother and a dutiful father, and is also a joker. "duang", "Do you want to spell it, don't spell it, hide first", "Speak less", the funny lines came out of the big brother's mouth and made people smile. Of course, the eldest brother uses actions and emoticons to speak more often. Don't blink when watching the movie, or you will regret missing the emoticons for a whole day!
And Wang Kai's role is even more surprising. Director Ding Sheng identified the actor through a selfie with the temperament of a "depressed aristocrat", which is in line with the "sweeping monk" character of the warlord guard who is hidden in the city. The excellent performance in the riding scene in which the train maintains a constant speed made the director shout "surprise", and then the character appeared with a distinct personality. On the surface, he was cold and disgusted that the Flying Tigers team members were not on the right track, but when those people he once disapproved of were in prison, he proudly came to rescue them, and then disgusted, happily, and fought together.
And some of his lines are also impressive, "This is too irregular", "I can't kill you", "Do you think this hand can shoot" - this boss Fan kept "beating you" "face", a righteous and awe-inspiring face sprayed with water, said funny lines and even turned into a surprised expression pack, which really made people see another possibility of Wang Kai's acting skills.
This is a group of down-to-earth people, this is a down-to-earth story, this is a tribute to the classics and warms the end of the year, this is a story that makes you amazing for editing and action, this is a story with children, With the old man, laughing and making trouble, watching the happy, good story.
