My point of view is just the opposite. It is my admiration for director Yip Weixin, because of his sense of the picture and his grasp of the story.
Most animation adaptations in the United States have achieved good results. In contrast, there are few successful cases in China. Of course, this has a lot to do with the unsatisfactory performance of the Chinese animation industry, while Hong Kong films have gradually fallen into a trough after going through glory, and there are few good works.
Hong Kong Huang Yulang and Ma Rongcheng's comic works have been gradually adapted after 2000, including "The Storm" and "Chinese Heroes", all of which have achieved good results. It can also be regarded as a contribution to the rescue of Hong Kong movies.
The beauty of comics should be taken into account when adapting a film by telephone, and there are often exaggerated and illusory elements in it. With the help of current computer stunts, the effect is both real and illusory. If it is really hard bridge and hard horse, it will lose the essence of the original work.
Another thing that should be mentioned is Donnie Yen. In the movies that promote kung fu, he gradually began to have supporting roles turned into absolute protagonists. Moreover, he is not only capable of fighting, and his literary drama is also very good, with almost no traces of contrived. The surprise brought by "Wolf" continues.
Some people mentioned that it is really a retro style of kung fu, which is really inexplicable. They also pulled out Zhang Che, Hu Jinquan, Tsui Hark and others to describe the footsteps of kung fu films in detail. This work is still in the category of modern kung fu films, and it has no retro meaning at all. Hearty with exaggeration.
It's a little puzzling that Shawn Yue's character has little effect in the film, perhaps because the film time is not explained in detail.
