Simple entertainment in political cloak

The English name of the film is "Bodyguards and Assassins", which is more reliable than the Chinese name. I, who have been determined not to read the spoiler, thought it was about Sun Dapao and Chen Jiongming. In fact, the story is very simple, it is guard + assassination, the focus is on martial arts, and it is an action movie with no spoiler value. Although I can't say I like the movie "October Besieged", I appreciate the current mode of filmmaking in China: putting on the coat of political correctness and making simple and beautiful entertainment films.

Specific to the movie, the martial arts drama is good, and it has the legacy of Hong Kong movies. Li Yuchun is not good-looking, but she is very good at fighting. I am optimistic that she will continue to take this promising road. In addition, her skin is really invincible in the universe. . . saliva. Donnie Yen's escaping scene was also very good, and the running was smooth and interesting, although I was surprised why he didn't hide by taking advantage of the local snake's familiarity with the terrain. In addition, Donnie Yen is thinner and younger than when he was in "Ip Man". I don't know if it is due to proper maintenance or Botox. Li Ming's image is very similar to Nie Feng. For a moment, I thought I was watching Fengyun 2. Of course, I was very happy when I saw this. This is the true nature of Hong Kong films. KO villain Hu Jun, the last sentence is my fantasy.

As for the literary drama of this film, I don't know if the director doesn't care too much about the coat of political correctness, or the photoelectric brown horse stares at it and takes the opportunity to resist. In short, it gives me the feeling of irony. When it comes to democracy, the lines of the revolution are all empty and erratic. For example, democracy is equivalent to the minority obeying the majority. You can almost see the screenwriter's sneering face through the screen. It is said to save 40 million compatriots in dire straits, but it seems that the people who appear in the film are doing well: Nicholas Tse is very happy to pull the car, Bartel is very happy to fry stinky tofu and grow flowers, Donnie Yen is very happy to gamble (although his wife ran away, But this can't depend on the society), Zhou Yun sits by the window every day to embroider and sees Nicholas Tse running over, very happy, the people of the troupe should have a stable life in Hong Kong from the attitude of Li Yuchun not wanting to leave, Li Yuchun is a beggar, but he asked for it by himself. . The reasons for these people participating in the protection of Sun Wen are various, but none of them are for the future of China, more like a group of onlookers who do not know the truth.

Wang Xueqi's attitude has always been relatively vague for the few non-mass people who are more aware of the truth. Half of them are for the exhortation of old friends, and the other half are always close to the revolutionary party. Leung Ka Fai is an intellectual, and this character seriously reinforces my judgment that the director is ironic: as a die-hard revolutionary party, he is afraid of blood, fear of blood... In addition, although he claims to be willing to sacrifice for the next generation's happy life Life is also at stake, but in the end, Tony Leung lived very well, but the next generation of Wang Bojie died (basically, those who died were young, and those who survived were old men). The young and beautiful young Wang Bojie is probably the next idol star to be popular. This role is quite satisfactory, and he is better than young, so those gorgeous lines that have been dealt with have no sense of disobedience to him.

The villain, Hu Jun, shaved his eyebrows and got fat. I didn't recognize him until the last third. I've always admired this guy for his good acting skills, but I don't know where I got it. Fan Bingbing's performance is also good. I used to see other roles she played, and I have a kind of coquettish energy. As a type actor, of course, it is very good, but it takes effort to widen the way of acting. This time, playing the fourth concubine, she is actually quite Xiaojiabiyu. .

The biggest feeling of watching "October Siege" is that the latter Qing Dynasty can maintain harmony and stability for at least 20 years - the former Qing Dynasty has become so rotten, and it will take five or six years for Sun Dapao to succeed in an uprising.
