Let’s talk about word of mouth. I read some comments before writing a film review, but I don’t understand those who criticize the main theme and personal heroism. Why do you get scolded when you shoot PLA, why is promoting patriotism a low-end, can you only show your B-frame by kneeling and licking the West? If you want me to say, there is a shortage of such films in China. It is not the main theme of "The Great Cause of the People's Republic of China", nor is it a magical drama such as tearing devils by hand, but a good film that truly pays tribute from a folk perspective. Our Celestial Dynasty is a bullshit. What's wrong with showing it in a movie? This movie is not preaching, and the three views are not scolding. How can there be a reason for one's own people to look down on their own people.
In contrast, I remembered the "American Sniper" I watched before, regardless of that movie, it was on Monday when I went to see it, and the audience was almost full. Americans really like national hero red mainstream movies, I saw it strangely. Now looking at the blurry image of "Wolf Warrior" on the computer, my heart is full of emotions. After leaving home and finally seeing that we have such an excellent film, I understand why Lao Mei thinks "American Sniper" is good.
Going back to the movie, the plot is compact and sound, and all kinds of memes and points are also the finishing touch. I can't comment on the ingredients of duang. I heard that 3D is very conscientious. I really want to see it. To be honest, the fast pace is both an advantage and a disadvantage: too short to be enjoyable! In fact, there are still many places that can be extended. Some places can be slowed down. There are too few empty shots, which makes the editing feel a bit abrupt... Master Wu has practiced Tai Chi, so he should understand these principles, but these are easier said than done.
If the full score is 100, the objective score is 85, and the subjective score is 99. Because I really like Wu Jing's way of life, serious, down-to-earth, straightforward and courageous. There are too many bad movies in this world, mostly because the fast-paced market is king, and there are not many who really want to make movies. Only when there are comparisons, can you feel the power of Wu Jing: he is very smart, and after listening to his interview, you can see that this is not a martial arts actor with developed limbs and a simple mind; How can such a character not be likable for a person who fights with his beliefs.
In the end, the slim hope is that the movie will not be downgraded when I return to China. I really want to support it personally, so I can come back and evaluate the feeling in the theater. At the moment, I can only wish "Wolf Warrior" a big box office hit, and slap the faces of those villains who can only scold and fight.
