1. The entire story flow is straightforward. After reading it, I have no impression of Confucius' life. As a biopic, it can be said to be a failure. At the beginning and Sanhuan's political power is a bit interesting, but it seems that the situation is controlled by the other party from beginning to end, and it does not show that Confucius has any great ability. The second half did not say anything at all. How did Confucius escape from one place to another, and how did he struggle in the face of adversity? Totally invisible.
2. I failed to impress the audience. The director said that if I don’t cry two or three times, I’m not a person. OK, I’m not a person, and I haven’t even discovered the potential of being a person. If you say that you can make a lot of tears by deliberately arranging a scene where Yan Huidong swims to save the book, then I can only say that you, the director, underestimate the Chinese audience too.
3. The casting failed. Although the protagonist is Confucius, several students are also famous figures in cultural history. Except that Yan Hui looks a little more pleasing to the eye (not too sloppy, too weak, can't see the temperament of a spiritual aristocrat, and the whole sky loses his face). Zigong, Ran Qiu... Oh my God, they are all amazing characters, how come they look like they just climbed up from the mine? ! Plus a nasty look.
4. Depth of Thought... I didn't expect any commercial films to have depth. But after watching the film, do you really know anything about Confucius? Don't get along with others? In the face of reality and danger, do you have to stick to your own policies and ideas? Not greedy for women? In short, it is not tall, deep, and three-dimensional. It is completely a bowl of plain water.
Director Hu, you should go home and shoot your soap opera.
