In the beginning, Cocco boasted to me how good this movie was, and I hadn't seen this one of the movies she watched. Deliberately spend an afternoon watching this film that can make the coy exclaim. After watching it, it really made me exclaim: Conan's version of Di Renjie - whoever goes to die; Chunge's version of Shangguan Jinger - at the end of the film I still don't know whether she played a male or a female; Pei Donglai - - Brave, big-hearted, brainless, and short-tempered, but I didn't see his big breasts either; version Wu Mei Niang - I felt like a person at first sight of her, but later I found out that she looked a lot like "Eternal Dragon Slayer" The one-armed god Ni in the 1992 Hong Kong version of "The Deer and Ding Ji", the one-armed goddess in "The Leader of the Demon Sect"; the supporting characters and the people who run the show will not be mentioned, forget who they are.
Andy Lau as Di Renjie
It is estimated that he is the most handsome Di Renjie in history, but his appearance is really shocking: he is blind in both eyes, he can't see the eyeballs, only the whites of his eyes. I'm still thinking this movie is about a blind detective with a disability? It was only later that he found out that he had pasted 2 white plastic films that looked like balloons in his eyes. At that time, he felt infinite emotion in his heart—our ancients were amazing, and the beauty contact lens was invented in the Tang Dynasty. (Later I saw the "elevator" driven by horses in the film, and my heart burst out with emotion, our ancestors are so trendy! I also led the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Roman Empire to visit the statue, and also let him see the self-immolation that has never happened in a thousand years Miracle phenomenon. High, really high) Then he started to have an affair with Shang Guan Jinger, and he didn't succeed in the end. Although there are assassins involved, but they did not seize the opportunity to be worth a thousand dollars in this spring night! Later, he fought with the national teacher, Shangguan Jinger. First, a few sika deer rushed out to make a suicide attack. He escaped one by one and let them die on the statue. Although I love watching the characters in the story die one by one, But this time it was our national treasure sika deer who died! As a professional detective, killing our friends arbitrarily, do you have a sense of public morality? How did you cultivate this ideological and moral cultivation? Did the Tang Dynasty strengthen the ideological and moral construction? Where has the socialist concept of honor and disgrace gone? Oh, I forgot, the Tang Dynasty was the most prosperous country at that time. The capitalist line they took, the socialist line of our grandfather Mao would not work in the Tang Dynasty. Then he got incense powder (I don't know what it's called, it's something that can make you dizzy), swaying, watching the two shadows of the national teacher, as far as I can see, he is not only XX incense, is Drug X! Later, the national teacher was soft-hearted and did not kill him, and took him to a different destination, but he was plotted against him. When he woke up, the national teacher was already half-dead, and he was sent directly back to the palace without looking for anyone to heal him. It is worthy of the growth of the capitalist social system. A good citizen, has been successfully brainwashed: go to the government if something goes wrong. When he was saving Pei Donglai, he didn't listen to Pei's last words, and was looking for clues, which was really not interesting. In the end, he was also baptized by the red flame beetle liquid, and hid between two horses in the escort, a pair of meat sandwiches. After rescuing Mei Niang, she was still lying in Mei Niang's arms in the posture of a noble concubine lying in wine. Rejecting Wu Meiniang's chance to make him an official, he patted his butt and left. The last shot of the film is of him watching the sunrise with one of his old, short and frustrated personal doctors.
Li Bingbing as Shangguan Jinger, National Teacher
At the beginning, she changed 2 styles in 1 minute, a female guard with a manly eyebrow, and a female servant of Xiaojiabiyu, which laid a strong foundation for her later image of neither male nor female. When Mei Niang was talking to Di Renjie, she stood on a platform with a black face and a black robe and looked into the distance. I thought of the lion in front of Tiananmen Square, the lion wearing a black robe, and from time to time she would look back at what they said, like an out-of-date lion. Little three. When I went to bed with Di Renjie, I took off very quickly at first, and then it was completely naked. Later, Di Renjie struggled to hold her, and his body was still so stiff. Hug and sit up, hug and sit up, like doing push-ups. She fully demonstrated an article in "Solo Troupe" edited by Han Han - the spirit of the hotel lady in "You Go to Thirty Cities" - when to pretend like a slut, when to pretend like a chastity Strong girl, um! It was fully reflected in her. Later, when Di Renjie exposed her in Wujiguan, he said that she had changed her face, and she changed back to her own appearance, watching a beautiful man turn into a beautiful woman, and the facial features were freely combined to expand and shrink. Then the screen followed Di Renjie's debunking of her progress and returned to the beginning of the film, saying that she used ventriloquism to play a double reed with a sika deer, and it was obvious that there was a meat ball rolling in the center of her neck. Then she screamed with tears in her eyes, and I thought she was filming "Painted Skin," and the scene where the heroine yells is very similar in both films. Later, she was injured by rescuing Di Renjie and threw them under a tree, and she just waited for Di Renjie to wake up. I rely on you, you can't step back from him and push him to wake up, you still think your injury is not serious enough, right? Then why are you hiding? Let those assassins stab you a few more times. In the end, classmate Jing Er lay in Mei Niang's arms and asked, "Have you ever loved anyone?" Mei Niang said, "Yes." He died with words he couldn't say.
Carina Lau as Wu Zetian
is just like what the article said at the beginning, her shape is like the one-armed god Ni in the 1992 Hong Kong version of "The Legend of the Deer" and the one-armed goddess in "The Legend of Heaven and Slayer of the Demon Sect", and her eyebrows are also cut into fat. The inverted octagon. I can only laugh without saying a word. Her shape is thunderous from the beginning to the end, and she is a qualified "Lei Po". Especially when she was talking with Di Renjie, she wanted to wear simple clothes, like the casual clothes of the current Queen of England, adding a "banquet hat" to the "windbreaker". It turns out that the British customs also copied our costumes of the prosperous Tang Dynasty! And she can be ambiguous with anyone in the play, and she can't miss anyone who she sees.
Deng Chao as Pei Donglai
I really like this character, very ordinary, although grumpy, but still very loyal. His relationship with Jing'er is also ambiguous. While protecting Wang Donkey, he defied Di Renjie's orders in order to protect Jing'er. He is also obsessed with women. Especially when he was chasing the assassin, he ran out impulsively, only to find that there was a hillside below. His expression suddenly changed from confident to terrified. Super cute. The final ending was also very tragic. This handsome boy with a little leukemia and vitiligo was killed like this, and Di Renjie had not heard the last sentence before his death.
Finally, let's talk about the director. Tsui Hark is one of my favorite directors, because of his "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East", because of his genius. I have watched "Old Master" produced by him, director's The Swordsman series and Huang Feihong series, "Green Snake", "Shushan Biography", "Black Man II", "1:99 Movie Action", "Seven Swords", "Iron Triangle", "Women Are Not Bad". Any one is better than this one. why is that?
I always thought that I was a calm and low-key young man. I didn't expect that "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven" could force me to another level with the small universe that I washed with Fu Yanjie. Thank you for making me realize myself again. .
