Speaking of Guy Ritchie, some people think of "Two Smoking Guns" and "Stealing", and some people think of "The Detective Sherlock Holmes", the first and second parts, and the third part that has not appeared for a long time. "Sherlock Holmes". In any case, Guy Ritchie is a director who fills the audience with a sense of familiarity. This time, the cover guide played "King Arthur". Sure enough, it has subverted the tradition in the type of film, gave a strong personal style to epic film themes, and completely changed the stereotype of ancient legends with the freshness that caters to young audiences. The legendary Arthur was entrusted to the mage Merlin by King Youser, and Merlin raised him in a secret place. No one knew his identity before Arthur drew the sword in the stone. In this movie, Merlin barely appeared, and only sent the witch Gurney Vale to assist Arthur in returning to the throne. Committed to growing up in a brothel, Arthur was a stubborn and stubborn warrior, but he was always a nightmare at night. It was his parents who died in front of his eyes, but he did not remember where this memory came from. . The focus of the film's narrative is how a british boy who was full of riffraction became the deified king of Britain later in the legend. This point seems as simple as a running account, but it is not easy to tell the running account well. From the beginning of the film, the high-frequency editing method and the very Celtic-style soundtrack were used to render the atmosphere, and the trivial and complicated details in the story were taken away, which not only accelerated the narrative rhythm but also quickly mobilized the audience's attention to the screen, which was quite efficient. The means to advance the plot. The use of several montages made the lengthy plot that explained the incident become full of jumps, creating a gap effect between the audience and the known story, and the right defamiliarization made the audience feel a strong sense of freshness in the content of the film, thereby further guiding the audience Attention. The special effects slow motion in the fighting scene also made the whole scene more vivid. The slowing down of the screen speed allows the audience to have enough time to appreciate the actor's physical performance, have a deep understanding of the actor's movement, and have the icing on the cake for the heroic image created by the actor. However, it is precisely because of the use of these techniques that while the film has a very exciting climax in the narrative paragraph, it also caused a certain gap in perception. The gap caused by this huge amount of information is added to the procrastination of the movie as the opening of this series, which compromises the overall experience of the audience. So some people will feel excited and empty at the same time after watching the film. Epic movies are difficult to achieve the movie-watching experience of beating the mobs on the drums like ordinary commercial blockbusters because of the complex story content, numerous characters, and twists and turns. Guy Ritchie exchanges new cans for old wine, transforming the core of the long-standing legend into his narrative mode of gang fights and gang fights that he is good at, making the ancient legend exude a new modern flavor. For the declining epic film genre, "King Arthur: Battle of the Beasts" is indeed a very good commercialization attempt.
