I have always felt that martial arts is really a strange thing for Chinese people. It is popular in the market, but it teaches people to dream of escaping from the market. When they are really far away from the world and escape into the world, they often become inexplicably entangled because of their lack of popularity and ungrounded air. As a kind of civic culture, it firmly occupies the cultural and psychological space of the Chinese people in the swing of the virtual and the real.
In the past few years, since "Ip Man" led the trend, the heroes on the screen have fallen in love with their wives and children's hot kang-headed home days, they can accompany their wives to go home for dinner and leave the sinister Jianghu affairs behind In the back of your head, you can also be at a loss for living in a humble house and eating porridge with your family. This invisibly makes all living beings in reality gain a certain sense of superiority in mentality compared to heroes, and there is no lack of such in "Jianyu". depiction. As the No. 1 heroine, the director found an ordinary job for Drizzle—a cloth saleswoman; Jiang Asheng is keen on bean curd, and almost all of the film’s performance can be implanted for this Hubei snack; the seemingly ruthless Black Stone In addition to being meticulous to his wife, the killer Lei Bin has to eat a bite of his hobby noodles even before his death...
Drizzle obtained the face of an ordinary person and wanted to live an ordinary life. The first lesson to get out and enter the market is to solve the problem of renting a house. As a leftover girl, she also began to hear the nagging voice of the renter, the mediator... In order to win the favor of the woman she loves, Jiang Asheng, All he can do is create clumsy encounters, hoping for a chance to be courteous in anticipation of heavy rain. These passages in the film, the market almost makes people forget that what they are watching is a martial arts film, and they can't help but smile. When the former rivers and lakes finally disturbed the stability of the world, Jiang Asheng settled his wife and lay down, put away the desk and chair, removed the door panel, took out the buried sword and polished it, and threw out a sentence, "Is my wife injured by you?" Extremely chic.
It can be said that "Jian Yu"'s presentation of various conditions in the market is outstanding among Chinese costume films, and its portrayal of the emotional world also rarely produces an elegant and charming Chinese flavor. This kind of temperament, which once appeared in Hu Jinquan's films and was praised in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", is rare in the blockbusters of ancient costumes in recent years, especially the scene in the ruined ancient temple, where the drizzle is affected by the drizzle. The enlightenment of the monk Lu Zhu said the lines of "I wish to be transformed into a bluestone bridge, to be blown by the wind for five hundred years, to be exposed to the sun for five hundred years, and to be exposed to the rain for five hundred years. , full of Zen.
If these aspects come from the inheritance of tradition, "Sword Rain" has not entered the situation of ancient and unchanging. Just like the propaganda of "The Costume Version of "Changing Faces" + "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" that broke out at the beginning of the promotion, it really shows its efforts to seek innovation and change within the category of martial arts genres. For Su Zhaobin, who is accustomed to writing thrillers, these aspects are probably what he is good at. It can be seen from "Double Eyes" that he is extremely good at localizing and Chinese-style transformation of Hollywood scenes, such as borrowing from the Catholic "Seven Deadly Sins" to create serial killings derived from mysterious Taoist icons case. The same is true of "Jianyu", which is also a face change. What he relies on is not the Western-style "disguise" operation, but the more oriental method of arranging and expelling Gu insects to feed on the bones of the face. There is also the magical "Fairy Cable". When the color drama master was killed, the runner king said, "The fairy cable is lost." At that moment, the audience sighed with regret.
