To say that this is classified as a movie like "Kung Fu Invincible", I feel a little unbearable. Although the plot is thin, the logic of the first half is normal, and there are several fight scenes that compare to Yuan Heping.
However, compared to the "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" and "Iron Horse Liu" directed in the early years, this level is also absurdly poor.
Say the plot.
The protagonist of the story, Su Can, is simply a refined version of Huo Yuanjia + Ye Wen. When he was young, his family was superior, with a virtuous wife and a well-behaved son. He wanted to live a life of indifference to the world, but he encountered a bloody feud, and then escaped from death and was unbearable. He finally broke through himself and established a sect.
The first half describes Su Can's tragic life experience, vendetta, his wife and children were robbed, and his martial arts was abolished. The growth of a hero always has to go through ups and downs. Although the plot is out of the way, the logic is normal and the main line is clear, and there are too many minor flaws, so let's ignore them first. So who can tell me what the next few dozen minutes are playing the gods and horses? After so long, the fight scene between Su Can and Yuan Lie finally ushered in, which should be the climax of the whole film. As a result, the villain died but the film was not finished. The remaining dozens of minutes suddenly crossed into another story.
In the second story, Su Can inexplicably realized the drunken fist to warm up for the inexplicable action scene of fighting with foreigners. Does it have to be so high-minded that defeating a group of foreigners covered in the blood of the nation is considered a master of a generation?
I didn't see the aura of the so-called grandmaster in the whole film.
Speaking of actors.
The starring Zhao Wenzhuo used to be my favorite actor. He was lucky, he was discovered by Tsui Hark when he was in college, and he starred in many powerful films just after his debut. Huang Feihong in "The Wind of the King", the nine-door admiral in "Fang Shiyu", Fa Hai in "Green Snake", and An Ding in "Broken Swordsman"... Not all the protagonists, but their performances are absolute Remarkable. At that time, he was also considered to be the successor of the martial arts star.
I have always felt that if he goes on this way, when Jackie Chan and Jet Li retire, with his appearance and temperament, he may not necessarily lose to Donnie Yen, who is now red and purple.
It's a pity that he changed his route and went back to the mainland to film a bunch of bad dramas, and completely mixed into the TV drama circle. After a lapse of many years, the handsome boy of the year has become the vicissitudes of the eyes of Obasan, but his acting skills have not advanced but retreated. What a good seedling originally, the bad drama is really ruining people. . What a pity. . .
Box office poison Jay Chou. Yep. I very much agree. This is definitely a quirk of the film industry. When Jiang Lang was exhausted in music, he came out to make movies to cheat money. "Slam Dunk", "Golden Armor", "Thorn Mausoleum"... not much to say. . As for acting, let's go back honestly and think about how to write songs.
I really don't understand why there is a white beard with soy sauce under Mao Wusheng. Is it to set off the weird atmosphere of your appearance? Or does Yuan Heping feel that this combination is not easy to laugh at? I rely on.
However, Brother Xun, who is not lost, seems to be still acting in the way of "Da Ming Palace Ci". But in this film, it can be regarded as a standout. It's embarrassing.
I once regarded An Zhijie as Liu Ye. The tone and posture are really similar. The villain played well, Yuan Lie, a psychopath who went crazy. But it was a little too hard.
The role of the child is unpleasant, the scenes are a bit like a dragging oil bottle, and the shouting is too provocative.
Michelle Yeoh is really a cameo.
Say something else.
A good movie always has a background music that is just right in the plot and emotionally moving. Too bad this movie doesn't. After reading all of it, I don't remember a single thing, and I didn't have a single thing that resonated in my heart and was incited.
In terms of shape, I think most of them are okay, especially Yuan Lie's black gold armor set on his body is very eye-catching. Except for Su Can, who was full of beards and tattered facial features, he couldn't see clearly. It was only in the later period that Su Can became desolate, and Wei Mao was turned into a beggar from the very beginning. Zhao Wenzhuo is also really sad. I wanted to borrow a movie to be the protagonist and turn over, but the first few paragraphs turned out to be revealing.
It is said that this is a kung fu blockbuster with 3D as a gimmick and a gorgeous action. I'd rather it didn't make a fuss with 3D. If Yuan Heping was honestly his martial artist, he wouldn't need this gimmick at all. It's a pity that everything has been commercialized, the plot is not enough to catch people, and the action advantage has not come out. In the whole film, except for the parts of grabbing the bark and bursting the wine bottle, the rest are slow motion and stunts, and even the big knife in the opening fight scene looks so fake. And in the end, the so-called drunken fist, how many moves are fists? Is that street dance? It's too perfunctory. .
One star for Wu Zhi Yuan Heping, one star for Zhao Wenzhuo, who I once liked
