In addition to the two aspects of photography and costumes, the film's production units are competent and excellent. The film cannot even do some basic editing and composition, let alone the computer special effects of the film. The overall effect of the film clearly shows that Director Chen Kaige completely lacks the commanding ability and dimension of entertainment blockbusters; he cannot manage the parts handed over by the complicated production units, nor can he accurately grasp the atmosphere and atmosphere of the film. Rhythm. What's particularly puzzling is that many places where you shouldn't laugh are mixed up with a hard joke, which makes the beautiful and touching atmosphere in front of you all melted into smoke.
Furthermore, in addition to the lack of quality on the surface of the film, what is really fatal is the rough arrangement of the script, which makes the film lack the elegant and delicate layering that the epic pattern of the same type should have. Not only is the aforementioned laugh bit messing up the style, but also the tension and pace of the plot are out of balance. Specifically, the content of the script covers too many conflict scenes that are too dense and without progressive levels, which has made it impossible for the audience to grasp the main theme of the movie's progress. Combined with the surreal plot and the unnatural coordination of the picture The composition of the picture, the three just hit it off to eliminate the audience's sense of commitment, which is especially important for entertainment blockbusters.
But if you just watch the story alone, "The Promise" has a high chance of being the author's favorite this year, so after watching the movie, seeing such a wonderful story turned out like this, I have to sigh, it's a pity.
In fact, the original story of this film is very ingenious. It not only deeply presents the two major life topics of choice and destiny, but also has vivid characters and alternate worlds with abundant imagination. At the same time, there are also very exciting things that the author is waiting for in the process. successive entanglements and conflicts. Among them, I especially want to praise and pay special attention to the causal relationship full of fate and interlocking when watching the movie.
This story contains a lot of good ideas that have to be mentioned. For example, the speed of Jang Dong-gun, a slave of the Snow Country, can be used to go back to the past. It's wonderful. I will sell it first, because the author always recommends everyone to watch and enjoy it. As long as you give up on the computer effects of this film, just watch how a few competent and even surprising actors perform this best original story.
As long as you enter the theater with the correct numbers, this film is definitely not as bad as the outside world said; otherwise, everyone will come to me to settle the account.
PS
Wuhuan
If you agree that "The Promise" is a mythical story, then a deceived experience in childhood has become a shadow of childhood and gradually formed a character of no faith and no joy. At least the middle is not unreasonable, but just lacks a little convincing sense of reality.
The role of Manshen
really does not help the plot development, and even the choice of the opening scene is just a slap in the face. Manshen is just a cold-eyed bystander, she does not have the ability to change the fate of others, so whether Qingcheng meets Manshen or not, and how to choose it makes no difference, everything is an irreversible fate.
Her two appearances are mainly to improve the sense of fate of the story through the pre-set narration or rehearsal. Originally, this was a good setting for the screenwriters. So out of balance.
