By the way, this film is called "13 Assassins", a remake, a period drama, a samurai movie, and that's it. The story is very simple, so simple that there is basically no sideline plot. All events revolve around one thing: how 13 people killed a perverted lord protected by hundreds of people. The story itself is very big, no accidents, no relationship between men and women, no literary and artistic novels, no gimmicks. The slogan is also very simple, we must kill that pervert.
However, the compactness of the plot advancement and the vividness of the characterization are because of such a simple story that more and more demonstrates the director's skill. Especially in the last 50 minutes of the "killing formation", 13 people vs 200+ people, the scene is magnificent, the details are clear, and the layers are rich. Each samurai is meticulously portrayed at the time of death. It is a rare and wonderful group drama. Even the big pancake face + copper bell eyes Yamada Takayuki, which I don't see much on weekdays, feels very kind, heroic and cocky.
Happy gratitude, I think it should be the complex of every man's heart. Although most of us sit in the office every day, we nodded and bowed to welcome our bosses and bosses. We were either talking about real estate or gossiping at the dinner table. But if there was an opportunity for you to put aside these, put aside your job, put aside women, would you do it? I think from the bottom of my heart, you really want to go. This is why we are so excited after watching this movie. Just like the "Thirteen Warriors" that I highly recommend to people, seeing one after another in the tent expressing their willingness to join the battle group is the most touching scene of that movie.
It's like saying goodbye between Gao Jianli and Jing Ke Yishui, striving to build a high song, or Liangbi laughing when he was assassinated by Peng Jiazhen: the one who killed me is a hero, knowing that I am the pillar of the Qing Dynasty, and now I die, the Qing Dynasty will go with me. Or perhaps Yang Jia bleeds a hundred steps and lays down a few people.
The times still need the spirit of gratitude and enmity, but what the times teach us now is: come, come, let everyone sing a red song.
