One word that must be mentioned in the review of this movie is atmosphere.
Let's talk about the wooden bridge that can be raised in the pool above the main hall. Although there are ministers and guards standing on both sides, the switch was moved by the King of Qin himself.
Some movies use stupidity to set off wisdom, like those soldiers in heroes, but this movie can use wisdom to highlight wisdom. And you don't need to use high IQ to flaunt yourself.
I personally feel that every movie made by Kai Ge likes all of his ideas, and Jing Ke's assassination of King Qin basically has no flaws. I like every detail and every idea.
Let's talk about the role first. Li Xuejian plays King Qin. He is short, treacherous, and moody, but he will not arouse the audience's disgust at all. Regardless of his understanding of the world, his enthusiasm for ideals will also have a subtle effect. In addition, the depiction of his city government is not only a naked performance, it can be said that people see people, and wisdom sees wisdom. In the episode of Lu Buwei, the little eunuch beside him loudly scolded King Qin for listening to Lu Buwei. King Qin showed hysterical sadness, but it made Lu Buwei even more suicidal. When he was hanged, Ying Zheng pretended to want to save him but lowered himself hard. . I don't want to say that this was not the plan of the King of Qin. There are many more such scenarios.
Lv Buwei, Jing Ke, Zhao Nv, and Zhao Nv have no time limit. Everyone can be called a wise person, but everyone is counted by the King of Qin. It seems that although Jing Ke sees clearly, he doesn't want to change the situation, or he doesn't dare to change the situation. doing what.
At the end of the film, when Nv Zhao left, I saw that Li Xuejian had tears in his eyes, and his face gradually showed a wry smile and murmured, "Have you forgotten the great wish to rule the world?" I am sad for him. He unified the world is the best ending. But many days later, when I wrote this review, it suddenly occurred to me that he was lying to me, he lied to the people in the play, and he also lied to the audience.
Yan Taizidan is a very good comparison object with the King of Qin. Prince Yan, played by Sun Zhou, is weak when he speaks. Even if he shouts, the voice comes from the depths of his throat without any courage at all. The combination of thick hair and beard. Although he is really sad, although he wants to do great things, although he is determined, Sun Zhou's performance still shows the weakness and ignorance of Prince Yan's Dan very well.
There are a lot more.
This is a good movie with an uncomplicated plot, but requires careful attention to detail. It is also a good movie that is close to history.
