Changes brought about by the passage of time cannot be stopped

Now, when I recall the first time I watched "The King of Power" on the little broken color TV at my brother's house, I can still feel the strong sense of strangeness it brings. Especially the scene where the King of Power breaks through the wall at the end is like a flash of lightning in my memory.
After a lapse of nearly twenty years, after forming and abandoning countless values, trying and spurning a lot of aesthetic tastes, I accidentally bumped into this film again, and I just felt that everything was different, even those scenes that made me have some impressions now. It was found that there was a memory bias.
In my opinion today, this movie is actually stupid enough to watch as a comedy (in fact, I could not help laughing a few times when I was watching it. Of course, not because of the laugh, but because of my Embarrassment committed), except for the daring bloody scenes, other places are as rough as No. 5 sandpaper. For example, my first set of laughter was when the prison bullies were beating up the old horse, and a large wooden toy car appeared along with the old horse; His hands and eyes were pierced by a wooden board with nails that appeared out of nowhere. When the old horse died, King Li took out the toy car directly from his thin single coat and put it on the old horse. Later, he did the same and took out a recorder (spin-off drama: "Doraemon in Prison")... The various rough-line plot scenes also made me laugh. Once this kind of entertainment spirit of director don't give a fuck is accurately obtained, you can't even laugh without laughing.
If I rated it according to my current viewing standards, I would give it three stars at most, but it always felt that it didn't match my true feelings about the movie deep in my heart, so I added another one.
In short, this kind of self-change due to age touched me more deeply than the recollection of old movies, and it went beyond the movie itself. Of course, this also exceeded my expectations: I didn't expect my mother-in-law and mother to be a B-cult film with the purpose of not talking nonsense for a long time - am I really familiar with it?
