An educational film that shouldn't be just a martial arts action film

The first time I watched this movie, I only felt that the action scenes were really the pinnacle of Uncle Jie, and the sparring with Jiugong and Nalan Yuanshu was a textbook. But looking back, it is different. The characters are also very full. Mr. Sun, Lu Haodong, I know a revolutionary pioneer in this way, so there is a time not to ignore the power of the media. I have thought about the appearance of Mr. Sun Yat-sen a lot. But it feels far more comfortable to watch in this movie than in those feature films. Although it is quite outstanding as a martial arts action film, its educational significance is also very good and profound, especially the depiction of the social situation in the late Qing Dynasty is very real, and the ignorance and superstition of the people are vividly portrayed, which makes people look like a stubborn throat. It's really hard to feel sorry for his misfortune, and to be angry that he doesn't fight. The record segment of which blind man played the erhu at night is simply a stroke of genius, the finishing touch, and the scene is full. In my opinion, it is a very good and rare martial arts action movie, but if it is viewed as an action movie, it would be a pity.
