I have been targeting this film for a long time, because Uncle He Zhengyu's "Yellow Sea" and "Horror Live" have deeply impressed Ben Xiaosheng. Although Ben Xiaosheng is more handsome than him, his acting skills are still slightly less coquettish. I heard that the uncle sacrificed his color and acted as a butcher, so he quickly came out to watch.
The director is quite young, born in the year of 1979, and is a docile herbivore. But the films they shoot are all rough in style. The previous work is "The Heyday of Bad Guys", which must be hard-core sullen and black-bellied.
In the first act, robbing the rich to help the poor, he first showed his face to a few thieves, and his character and skills were well portrayed. "Dahu" is Song Jiang, "Tianbao" is Lu Zhishen (I wanted to say Li Kui, but Li Kui gave it up to someone else...), "Evil Monk" is Gongsun Sheng, "Tai Ji" is a fallen scholar, equivalent to Wu Yong , but the show is clearly lacking. "Ma Xiang" is equivalent to Sun Erniang, Jin San can acrobatics, similar to the times. Dahu went down with a knife, and the heads of corrupt officials fell to the ground, and they turned directly into the magnificent scene of galloping horses. OK, the rhythm is good, we can start work!
Wait, this background music. . . . Actually, it's actually "Eagle Claw Iron Shirt", it's it again! It has just been "saluted" by the jerk Quentin, and now it has been "rounded" again. This, the inferiority of the Korean nation, is speechless. This piece is called "I Giorni Dell'ira", and it was first used by Old Mei in Westerns. It's nice, sonorous, powerful, and a little bohemian.
In the second act, there is a handsome guy named Zhao Run. At first, I thought he was going to force Liangshan to take the top spot. Who knew that he would become a big BOSS in the development of the plot, and what was even more unexpected was that when the plot was about to end, he was developed into an underground party member, lurking. It's so deep. Come, give some shots, the shots are handsome.
Uncle He finally made his official debut. He was really aggrieved and laughed. At first glance, he didn't recognize him, and he was always wondering. The two axes are majestic and majestic, Li Kui is none other than you. Going to the temple to kill a woman, the little monk is full of urination. It's a bit rough to poke the window paper directly with your fingers, isn't it? Please spit some saliva and give some professionalism?
The butcher's execution in the rainy night is not bad, and the mass grave is impressive. Tianbao's fake hacking tricks the butcher, and his skill in playing tricks is beginning to show, which is quite the essence of the characters of the Water Margin. The second time playing with treasures was also very effective, and he fell asleep in the snow, which made people laugh. It's a pity that such a bridge can be used once, but it is vulgar to use the second time. Big Stone actually fell asleep too, Uncle He, are you robbing or being robbed? You've been cut off your pants before, but here you go to cut someone else's pants again, is there something new? However, the bald head of Big Stone appeared for the first time, and the ruffian strength was quite in place, so I gave it a freeze frame as a souvenir.
Practicing the knife in the bamboo forest with big stones, is this to show that you are better than "Broken Swordsman"? People have one knife, you have two knives, and Taiwan has nine knives.
The first half is basically satisfactory, and it feels a bit new. It's a pity that the second half didn't hold, and the flaws in the plot appeared one after another, and the traces of rushing to work were undoubtedly revealed:
1. The boss fights Zhao Run alone in Dahu, and Ma Xiang actually throws the boss to fight the stone back to the mountain, which is almost a child's play.
2. The evil monk said that he was going to save the boss, but he didn't take any of his followers alone. It was obvious that he wanted to be martyred.
3. Zhao Run and Shitou had a life-and-death battle and kept holding the baby. Is this the rhythm of trying to be cool?
Speaking of the last battle, Zhao Run has transformed from an idol actor to a powerful actor. Jiang Dongyuan succeeded. As the first masterpiece after his demobilization, he was out of the limelight and earned a lot of attention. But this film failed. Perhaps the original intention was to continue to add drama to Jiang Dongyuan and dig deeper into the soul of Zhao Run's character. What was left behind was that there was no support, and there was too little foreplay and no climax.
The protagonist of "Group Thieves" must be a hero in Liangshan, but here a baby is suddenly placed on the big boss, and this baby is still the strongest threat to compete with him for the family business. For this baby, the big boss actually gave his life, and his body flashed with the brilliance of humanity. At the same time, Ha Zhengyu's stone turned into a hideous and ragged executioner. This kind of plot makes people flash before another scene of the human tragedy of director KO and screenwriter.
