I haven't read the original book, and even before this I only knew that Ghost Blows the Lamp is a book, so I went to see this movie entirely on the recommendation of a friend. If I knew about Dragon Search and Tomb Raiders, I guess I would have missed this good movie if I was timid. Good luck with your ignorance. Although I was often scared to close my eyes by the picture when watching the film, the first sentence after watching the film was "I will never go to the grasslands again, especially the grasslands with lakes!" The picture is so realistic that I saw the ladder Fear of the conditioned reflex.
Bart, this movie is really good, the educated youth Chen Kun is so handsome, and Chen Kun is so cool to touch the gold, and when he teases Shu Qi, he is a master at picking up girls. Huang Bo and Xia Yu are in charge of comedy. Every time the plot is tense, they will come out and have fun. I have to say, this is the ingenuity of the director and the screenwriter. When the strings in the audience's mind couldn't be tighter or even their breathing stopped, throwing these two guys made everyone instantly vent their emotions, reminding me of Peter Jackson of early cult films.
Shu Qi's performance is very good, whether it's modeling/movement or the handling of subtle expressions, but the original sound makes me feel a little awkward, but it is also the more beautiful voice in the whole film, especially when he got angry a few times sounds so good. Liu Xiaoqing's performance felt a little stiff. When he finally threw the wig away, he really terrified the baby. Against the backdrop of many movie stars and actresses, anglebaby's performance doesn't have a lot of brilliance. When I laugh a few times, it makes me appear as a running man. Why?
Let's talk about the special effects, I was really shocked by all kinds of big scenes. The big scenes and small details were handled very well. There are beautiful and terrifying. Would I say that this baby was frightened several times!
In terms of the way the story is told, I didn't understand it at first. After all, I haven't read the original book. Now I don't even know what it means to touch gold and fight. However, I noticed a small detail, that is, Hu Bayi is holding Ding Sitian's hand. This scene has appeared several times. The first time was in the opening sequence. When the three robbed the tomb, Hu Bayi did not hold the hand of the woman in the tomb. The gorgeously dressed woman slowly turned into Ding Sitian's clothes when she fell. I was confused at first, but later I found out that this was actually an obsession hidden in Hu Bayi's heart. times), became the most regretful and guilty thing they had done in 20 years. It is irresponsible to speculate that the mistake at the beginning should be an important reason why Hu Bayi chose to wash his hands in a golden basin.
The third time was when Hu Bayi fantasized about rescuing Ding Sitian, and the two fell in love on the sweet Chinese grassland. I have to say here that all people in love are blind, Hu Bayi, if you save Ding Sitian, what about Wang Kaixuan? Lao Wang was completely ignored by the two of you like this, and he hurt Lao Wang for three seconds. You are destined to be a cannon fodder without your good looks, and you don't even have a chance to watch their sweetness!
In the end, Hu Bayi broke the illusion, defeated the curse that had accumulated in his heart for a long time, and completely woke up. So, what Ding Sitian represents is actually everyone's obsession with something, right?
Therefore, looking for the dragon is an adventure, a fantasy, a awakening and cherishing, and a willingness and letting go.
