Narrative techniques are actually the techniques typically used by Western directors. From the beginning of the film, lay the foreshadowing, keep the audience in a state of guessing all the time, give you the answer in the thread, let the audience have a basic guess about the plot, and then in the last part of the film, I will give you a surprise, tell You guessed wrong, this movie is also seventy-eighty-eighty. (Spoiler: The copy of the film also tells you that Zhang Jingchu plays a pair with the male lead, and it feels like they are in love, but they are not...)
Besides, the theme of the film seems to be a mix of Western-used themes. It can be said that It is a growth chapter that surpasses oneself, a person who made a mistake, and finally corrected the mistake. It can also be said to be a love story, a story about giving up immortality for love, and finally giving up love because of Barabala. It can also be said that it is a film that explores human nature, involving the weakness of human nature among the nine demons. Too mixed themes is the reason for the failure of the film! There is no priority.
The film that Zhang Jingchu was watching, but in fact she is not the heroine of the film, she can only be regarded as a female supporting role with more roles. . .
Many settings make people confused, and make the film enter the ranks of bad films. The inexplicable Chinese setting feels very far-fetched, and it can be changed to other places. The setting of the blacksmith's son? ! is it necessary? Can be replaced with a better one. The ninth son of the devil, I feel so pitiful for him, do I expect the master to name her. At first, Maria, who found out that the heroine had entered the research room and wanted to kill the heroine, ended up giving the heroine that jade pendant. A lot of questions are puzzled. I don’t know if the screenwriter made it up casually or if my IQ is not enough?
Let's talk about the title "Jade Warrior", which should refer to the emerald green jade in the film. It only appeared halfway through the film. First, Zhang Jingchu played the role of hanging Yujue around the male protagonist's neck. Then the male protagonist committed suicide wearing Yu Jue, and when the male partner died, he brought Yu Jue with him. Then, when the male protagonist was killing the ninth son of the devil, Yu Jue saved the male protagonist's life. At the end of the film, Yu Jue gave it to the heroine again. The meaning of Yujue at the end of the film can barely be explained as the male protagonist gave up his love for the female protagonist and decided to break with the past. But is there any connotation ahead? The whole clue process is inexplicable. It is estimated that foreigners do not understand the connotation of Yujue in Chinese culture at all, and the title of the film is even more difficult to understand. Is it a warrior who fights for love? !
I fully understand why it only has a score of 4.0. Chinese audiences who went to watch Western magic have watched a bad movie that can barely be positioned as a romance movie. And it is a film that has been ruined by various commercializations. Finally, let me complain: when the male protagonist was Chinese, he was so speechless, but when he was in the Netherlands, he suddenly woke up. There are also Chinese myths of foreign names.
In short, this is a film that Westerners made bad. . .
