Whether martial arts is marshal or art, the carrier and focus of the film

Keanu is an actor I have always liked. In Matrix I, after his awakening, his wonderful fight scene is like a brand, and he deeply remembers it. I always thought he was an American, but the emphasis at the end of the film that he is a Canadian citizen made me notice this.

Let’s talk about the advantages of this film: the martial arts action is very smooth and exciting, and the fight scene is hearty enough. I think this is also what Keanu has the most advantage and wants to convey when shooting this film.

Disadvantages: In order to highlight the action film, the plot is simplified and simple, which has advantages and disadvantages. The ingenious design of the action and the viewing value of the fighting are indeed more presented, but the plot as the carrier of the film has a very untenable place. How can a courier speak English so fluently? He can play so many games and still not collapse?

The name of this film is Taichi Man. To use the original words of the film, the film shows the process of a pure innocent Taichi fighter changed to be a killer, which shows more of Chen Hu's depravity. easy. And there are many plots, emotional and psychological changes of characters in the movie, but this explanation and turning point are very abrupt and rude. The emotional direction of people in many places is too confusing and not handled carefully enough. There is not much effort to show real Tai Chi in the whole process, but Chen Hu's own marshal art. When Keanu Reeves really wanted to kill Chen Hu, Chen Hu seemed to have learned to let go of himself all at once. And he realized that the process of how important meditation is to Tai Chi is an understatement, and it can even be said that it is not, because when Chen Hu got the benefits, he also emphasized to the master that he believed that the power was more suitable for practical needs. I can't see the art part of the martial arts presented at the end.

Keanu Reeves, the big guy, is more like an idiot neurotic with martial arts habit. There is a picture of him sitting in his room, which seems to show that he is a warrior, as if he has a high spiritual level and goals, and in the final struggle for life and death, he said that his dream can be described in trivial words.

In movies, the audience's tastes are becoming more and more critical. Action movies only have beautiful actions, but the plot is a poor carrier. It is difficult for movie fans to pay for a second time to watch similar movies.
