"Di Renjie's Empire of Heaven": 11 Weibo-style Perception Quotations (No Spoilers)

On the first day of the show, I went to the scene where I once loved Old Monster Xu. It feels basically painless. As far as the movie is concerned, it's still good and worth watching, but that's about it. A few words on perception:


1. Tsui Hark has indeed made a complete return after ten years of Hong Kong's return, and even his ideology has returned to the fullest. To use a perhaps inappropriate analogy: "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven" is Tsui Hark's "Hero".


2. The special effects of this film are very poor, and I feel that there are still several layers left unfinished. Korean stick mad A money.


3. The art and special effects of this film must be fans of the PS masterpiece "God of War" game series. If they dare to say that they haven't played "God of War 2"... uh... go play and see~ The interior of that big Buddha is completely the design of the opening boss statue of "God of War 2". In addition, the ferryman in the "ghost city" should also refer to the god of death in Greek mythology. The scene is especially done like "God of War"


4. It is a "martial arts film" that has paid more attention to storytelling in recent years, if this film is still a martial arts film. But the complexity and rigor of its plot is actually not as good as some of the wonderful cases in "Conan".


5. It turns out that bin Laden's inspiration came from the Tang Dynasty.


6. Vampires are afraid of the light, maybe they are poisoned by the flame beetle. 7.


Feudal society is indeed not as good as socialism. At that time, the spontaneous combustion was caused by someone, but now the spontaneous combustion is really spontaneous.


I think it looks good. Wu Yaohan and Teddy Robin are still very "Hong Kong flavor"!


9. If the release team of "Sword Rain" is professional enough and meticulous and solid enough, there is a chance to tie the film.


10. This year's National Day file has these films, which are quite exciting, although they each have their own shortcomings. My personal favorite is "Sword Rain", I think it's the best martial arts movie I've seen after "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" (note: this doesn't mean it's as good as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"), and then down is "Hawthorn Tree" Love", and finally "Empire of Babel". But this National Day file is much better than the Christmas file at the end of last year, that is, "Thorn Mausoleum", "Storm II" and "Three Guns" are shown on the screen.


11. Some time ago, I saw someone say on Weibo: "Empire of Tongtian is all for the boss, Sword Rain is all for the second, and Love of the Hawthorn Tree is for the third." This is very reliable! Fun and memorable.
