The action is splendid, and the patriotic feelings are also on the paper, which is more meaningful than that "Huo Yuanjia" and "Ip Man"...

I've watched it many times, but it's all fragmented memories. I finally watched the full version of the Cantonese original soundtrack once, and found that Hong Kong movies still have a lot of flavor in the Cantonese original soundtrack.

I watched the Youku version, the Cantonese original sound, and the Mandarin version with subtitles. I found that the character played by Qian Xiaohao has a very different pattern and mind in the Cantonese original sound and the Mandarin version.

List two places!

In the first place, when he and Chen Zhen had a duel due to the problem of Japanese girls, the Cantonese original voice said that if Chen Zhen won, Chen Zhen would be the curator of Jingwumen, and if he won, Chen Zhen would break up with the Japanese girl. But the mandarin subtitle is that if he wins, Chen Zhen will leave for Jingwumen.

The second is when he went to fight with the Japanese, he explained Xiaohui, a character similar to the big sister. The Cantonese original sound is asking her to take care of everyone, while the Mandarin subtitles are asking her to take care of her girlfriend. The simple combination of Cantonese and Mandarin in two places directly reduces the mind and pattern of this character. In the Cantonese original sound, he is also a person who is upright and broad-minded.

These details are really important.

Hong Kong movies, come on!

    No matter how strong an ant is, it can't defeat a giant elephant who wakes up from a dream. No matter how clever the martial arts, can not face the ruthless pistol. A true national hero must see clearly the hatred of the country and the family and the love of the children. The true successor of Jingwu must distinguish between martial arts cultivation and murder. Wushu is the inheritance of form and meaning, and fighting is the explosion of power and skill. Give up standing still and learn from others' strengths. Only by continuous creation and communication can we carry forward the martial arts spirit. Chen Jia's award for the best film is also a milestone for Chinese-language action films. While showing the feelings of family and country, the national hero who was originally masked is portrayed as an ordinary person with desire and weakness. The arc of the characters is full and three-dimensional, which is convincing. At the same time, Yuan Heping's understanding of martial arts and fighting has reached an unprecedented height in both forward-looking and ornamental. The original intention of practicing martial arts directly affects his cultivation and style. In terms of soundtrack, Gu Jiahui has reached new heights, the sad and clear shakuhachi, the implicit and mournful bamboo flute, the melodious violin, and the murderous pipa. The use of musical instruments has also achieved a fusion of the East and the West, and the soundtrack of each scene is just right. , is a must.
