Regarding the ending, Shaolin football is very inspirational, compared to God of Cookery and King of Comedy, it is much more comfortable.
But that's not to say God of Cookery and The King of Comedy have a bad ending, but there's something else hidden.
At the end of the God of Cookery, to judge who is better at cooking, the final judge's decision needs to be made, Buddha jumps over the wall or ecstasy? Only the judge, Ms. Xue, has the final decision. Under the huge influence of capital, even if the judge Xue who was caught is more inclined to be ecstatic, it is useless and can only make judgments against her will, which is really helpless . So suddenly there was a thunderbolt, and Guanyin fell from the sky, making capital forces a prototype and punishing them. This surreal approach, although abrupt, actually sets the stage for the film from the very first shot (fortune-telling). Although Stephen Chow said that everyone can become a God of Cookery as long as they put their heart into it, and everyone can be a God of Cookery. But the secular, real food gods in society are still the result of the operation of capital forces, the so-called greed. If you can sit in that position, your ass will never be clean, even if you do have the skills.
As for the ending of The King of Comedy, I always feel that after Yin Tianqiu lost the chance to lead the lead role, he was shot dead because his acting was too good or too bad in reality, which would make the film King of Comedy more dramatic and meaningful. , which may be the original intention of the film. However, because it is a Chinese New Year film, and the previous films were not selling well, the possibility of this ending is zero. In front of reality and money, the ending of the King of Comedy finally turned into a comedy, and everyone held hands on the stage to say Happy New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai to the melon-eating crowd below. compromise.
The ending of Shaolin football is idealistic and inspirational. This film reveals this color all the time: dreams, salted fish turning over, the fire in the eyes of humble mortals, brother Xiong, who covers the sky with one hand, directly stumbles and falls, etc. Because the setting of the movie is football, in the football field, whether it is the opponent's doping, black whistle, or other despicable means of interference, it can prove that you win by scoring goals, as long as you can score goals with your strength in broad daylight and in plain sight , which is much more transparent than competing for God of Cookery.
Don't rely on Guanyin, don't rely on gods, as long as I have the ability, strength, and master the rules of the game, I can handle it, and I must handle it for you grandsons who are aloof and virtuous. This may have been boring in Xing Ye's heart for a long time, and he has been persistently wanting something to explode.
However, in kung fu, when Ah Xing, who plays the Tathagata's palm, tells the evil god of fire clouds, who represents pure evil, that you want to learn, I will teach you; at the end of the film, from the perspective of Ah Xing's childhood, discover all the When the various characters that appeared in the film all played different roles on that street, it made me realize and moved me even more.
I think, Lord Xing, he should have been relieved.
