    In fact, what is most worth watching is the depiction of the White Lotus Religion. If people need faith in their hearts, the White Lotus Religion can well satisfy the ordinary people at that time who were unable to save themselves and felt depressed and hoped to become stronger. It is just a vision, and there will be black lotus without white lotus. If the essential problem is not solved, this symbolic collapse of belief will only be a temporary collapse until they find their next goal. Not...

    In the last scene, Aunt Thirteen is gradually leaving on the boat, and Huang Feihong is staring at the dock. This picture has been in my heart since I was a child, until now. Watching Huang Feihong's movie again, I understand a lot of things that I didn't understand when I was a child. In that era, people with lofty ideals explored the road for the country and the nation, and were not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice. The reason why Huang Feihong's film is a classic should be the national...

    Looking back nearly 30 years later, just counting the action scenes, the peak of Chinese costume action movies seems to be still in the Huang Feihong series, which is really emotional and sad... The editing is still the chaos and roughness unique to Hong Kong movies in the golden age, but this A political metaphor is well done, and the literary drama is also occasionally brilliant. The laughter is very advanced. It is not as ridiculous as most of Xu Laogua's works. It's too fluffy, otherwise...

    This one is my favorite in the trilogy. The ignorance of the White Lotus Sect reflects not only the minds of the people at that time, but also the nature of the people of our dynasty a thousand years ago and even today. The blind artist's song "Frightening Back to Xiaomeng and Recalling Qiujuan" adds infinite desolation and tragic, and when I see "I hope the morning sun will always shine on my soil, don't forget the blood of martyrs on the ground", it makes me...

    One of the biggest problems in putting highly stylized martial arts kung fu movies in a larger historical pattern for national reflection is the deviation of the film type and thematic appeal. The White Lotus Sect's magical body protection is certainly a trick, but in front of foreign guns and foreign cannons, what is the difference between Shadowless Feet & Iron Wire Fist? ...but it has to be different! Because the latter is forced to happen by the type, Huang Feihong must use the word "wu" to...
