The film begins with a one-night stand and runs through it with Takeshi Kaneshiro's unintelligible narration, because unlike in Zhang Che's "Thorn Horse" version, the pre-trial self-report of the arrest of the third child is used as a flashback, which makes Takeshi Kaneshiro's narration seem far-fetched.
What I still don't understand is why Liansheng fell in love with his eldest brother. Dillon in the version of "Thorn Horse" is handsome and mighty, ambitious, and understands his taste. Jet Li didn't show any features better than Andy Lau in The Name and Document , So Chen Kexin had to let them have the nonsensical one-night stand at the beginning of the film. Could it be that this night's dew marriage made Liansheng unforgettable for a lifetime? ? doubt~
Milan in "Thorn Horse" is portrayed with a more free spirit, "When I met him, I was still young and didn't know what love was. I only thought he was the best among men, and I didn't know until I met you. What do I want?" And Ma Xinyi, who can draw, understand literary talents, and become a high school scholar in high school, is indeed hard for women to resist; and Liansheng in "Famous Name", "This year will be red, next year will be green", A typical day and night, such a woman has indeed become an embellishment, which makes it difficult to sympathize.
Takeshi Kaneshiro's role should be able to shine, but the flaws in the script prevent him from surpassing my beloved Zun. Zhang Wenxiang, played by Jiang Dawei, has always watched from the sidelines. He cares more about his sister-in-law than his eldest brother, and he also noticed the change of his sister-in-law in advance. When he was wearing a top, when he was wearing the top of the top of the sister-in-law's face, he found that the sister-in-law's eyes fell on Ma Xinyi, and he was puzzled. , and the hairpin left in front of Ma Xinyi's case made him understand everything; in the face of such a critical situation, he chose to stop his elder brother; and Wuyang played by Takeshi Kaneshiro is like a stunned young man, not only did he realize everything in hindsight, but also After discovering the truth, he didn't go to save the eldest brother who was in deep danger. Instead, he asked Liansheng to settle the account. He really didn't know the point, especially when he killed Liansheng, "Those who mess with my brother, kill!" made him more like a brain. Simple fundamentalist killer, as for the fraternity that was hurt, there was no sign of it. No wonder he gave him the name "Wuyang". It turns out that Chen Kexin only thought of him as the daring and brainless Qin Wuyang who designed him. !
Andy Lau acted very hard, and the traces of the performance were very heavy, but it was really difficult for him. It was too difficult to get rid of the inherent impression of Liu Tianwang, why can't Erhu be simple-minded to the end? Why should the love soldier portrayed by him be like a child, and he doesn't understand politics? ? ? I want the first year of the first year and the fifteenth year again. This is not a full character, but it makes the plot even more unreasonable.
In the end, the portrayal of Pang Qingyun's character is even more unconvincing. As a deserter who is struggling to survive on the battlefield, his character setting should be a treacherous, ambitious and desperate role; but why after sworn to Cao Erhu and Wuyang, he seems to have moved his feelings again, when he attacked Shucheng and Nanjing , Suzhou's performance is more like for the good of the brothers, until the end of killing Cao Erhu, it seems so helpless... This is not in line with the logic of personality! Do you want to say that he is good or bad? You say he is complicated, but please don't use politics as a shield for everything, okay? It doesn't mean that when you move out of politics, it proves that you understand what it means to be proud. Brotherhood of the knife! Politics is not an excuse for a flawed plot~~~
I'm looking forward to a masculine blockbuster that is full of blood, not a political conspiracy film that smothers your throat and pretends to be b~~~ Besides, the politics in this is superficial Felt contrived and disgusting! It can be seen from Pang Qingyun's death method that it is ambiguous, swaying, hit by a knife in the front and shot in the back, saying yes or no, no or no, it's weird~~~
Now, like Zhang Che, there are other people who understand men's friendship. Several people? Who knows better than him what is the taboo in traditional Chinese ethics? ? (I can't take my brother's code, see how Wu Song treated Pan Jinlian in the Water Margin, and how Shi Xiu treated Pan Qiaoyun, his elder brother Yang Xiong's sister-in-law who was out to steal sweat.)
Depressed, re-watch 1972's "Thorn Horse", I look forward to a better rendition in the future, a remake of a director who really understands male friendship.
PS: some interesting history - reality is always crueler than fiction
Recently, I have been frantically cutting a film in the computer room. It was Li Hongzhang from Hefei. It turned out that Li Hongzhang ruthlessly killed the eight kings of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who surrendered after capturing Suzhou. The surrendered Taiping army originally came from this passage... sigh, Li Hefei has never made a sworn sworn, let alone become a pirate. From a scholar who was a scholar in high school, he returned to his hometown to train in a regiment and fought against the Taiping army. Qingyun is a hundred times more powerful!
I am a native of Shucheng, and Shucheng is indeed a strategic location for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Qing army. When I saw the name of my hometown in the theater, I was inexplicably excited! ! Haha~~ This can be considered the only gain from watching "Vote for a Name"!
