"Fist of Legend" was loved by critics because it represented a new level of Hong Kong kung fu movies. In this painstaking film, Jet Li combines Chinese Kung Fu and Western boxing techniques he has studied for many years, making Kung Fu fans mesmerized. The idea of the film is no longer limited to the national hatred of foreign powers, and shows a great power style that China should have. Although the film is a tribute to Bruce Lee's " Fist of Fury ", it is also a transcendence.
There are several important fight scenes in the film, all of which are quite realistic and don't have much of the bells and whistles of traditional kung fu movies. The film was the pinnacle of Jet Li's film career, as well as Chinese kung fu films.
The interpretation of history in Fist of Legend is very fair and objective. For example, Chen Zhen was a representative of a large number of talents who studied in Japan and became Chinese elites at that time. For example, Fujita Gang was a representative of the young soldiers who wanted to invade China. Funakoshi and consuls It is the epitome of some pro-Chinese people at that time. At the end of the film, Chen Zhen in Bruce Lee's "Fist of Fury" volleyed into the sky and made a heroic sacrifice, and changed it to the scene where he faced the Japanese military after he killed Fujita Go. We must take the opportunity to launch the threat of war, and be willing to sacrifice ourselves to stop the war and buy time for the backward China. This kind of sacrifice is actually even greater, and it can be clearly seen that director Gordon Chan's own historical view is in it.
