The opening scene of the film reminded me of the scenes from "Apocalypse Now", which is worthy of being a great director. At the beginning of the film, it was magnificent, with a bunch of aerial shots, but after 2 minutes, I began to doubt that these scenes were shot by the director. ? Or did the director give the cameraman a plane and let him take some random scenery back for credits? I really can't think of what these shots are saying! (At least expressed a meaning to the producers: I spent money!)
The appearance of Cage! I rely on! It feels so kind! Almost any Chinese can see that this man is fighting against Japan! It is estimated that Director Wu called all the second-line martial arts in our country to travel to the United States? Front flips, back flips, side flips, side flips and swivels, barbarians, front flips, and people who use people to lie on the barbed wire as a bridge (oh, sorry, that guy is American, not a stand-in). It is estimated that the demolitionists of the Bayi Factory have also visited a lot. There are all kinds of petrol bombs, incendiary bombs, and impact points. Only the pool of blood and the bubbles on the star's chest that can raise fish can be seen as American special effects. Makeup artist insist.
About the plot. . . . . .
plot?
Let's talk about music first.
What is the situation in which this main melody is always in variation? Whether it's charging, fighting, aerial photography, dialogue, love (sorry, there's no love, only emotion), why do all I hear are sadness and joy? ? ? ? And when Brother Keqi died, the "sorrow" actually stopped along with his breathing! To tell the truth, I was really moved because of many of the scenes and dialogues, and my eyes were wet, but at this time the most terrible thing was actually the music, like a sudden slap in the face to bring me back to reality. Is this really the composer of "Titanic" and "Avatar"? ? ? ? And the flute of the horse whisperer (sorry, I really don't know the scientific name of this instrument) is probably the best in the whole film.
As a war film, the most important scene of the film is the war scene. All I saw was artillery shells, mines, grenades, and computer-made "petrol bombs?" just dropped from planes. As for the battle between the enemy and the enemy, the person on the left and the person on the right attack each other. This can indeed be used as a large-scale teaching material for the film school.
When Keqige sacrificed his heroic sacrifice, and the close-up of the camera gave the Horse Whisperer hero I wanted to cherish, I suddenly realized! This film is wrong because of the wrong actors! Jiang Wen, Ge You, Chen Daoming and other Chinese first-line male stars should be invited to play, not Cage, Hulk and the like, they are completely unable to perform those anti-Japanese war films that we have watched since childhood! Remember "Tunnel Warfare"? Remember "Railway Guerrilla"? Classic ah~~
has been imitated, never surpassed!
(Actually, I like director John Woo very much. His shots are very fast-paced. The True Color of Heroes is also the best Hong Kong film I have ever seen. I also like several films after he developed in the United States. The pride of the Chinese! But the love is so painful, this film is really very distressing. The whole story is out of rhythm, the story is chaotic, and the action scenes are too exaggerated. It is completely the production of a B-level Hong Kong film Level. Cry!)
