Can you really crack or understand "House of Flying Daggers"?

1 First of all, let me state that I am not an interpreter, the first thing a movie is to look good. Otherwise, it's not worth the in-depth analysis at all. This product is so good-looking that some people ridicule it as a scenery film. Visible light doesn't look good either.

2 Think of it as the costume version of Infernal Affairs, which is the first layer. Naturally not as good as the original.

3 Seen as an extension of "Landed Bridges", it is very touching to fall in love with each other and kill each other. Counting the second layer is so-so. But not outstanding.

4 Most viewers stop there.

5 They overlooked the most important word, the word that the film runs through over and over again and again: with the wind.

6Liu Zhaotou said: The life of the shield soldier, your life and mine, (in the eyes of the government), what is it?

7 In the eyes of Fei Daomen eldest sister, what does Ben help a little girl sell and sell her sex, what is Liu Zoutou and her love - don't miss the big event of this sect.

8 Ambush from all sides, not officers and soldiers, nor flying knives. It is this cold and cruel human and animal nature.

9. Go with the wind, flow at will, stay at will, just like the candlelight in the ice cellar, actually melting the frozen girl.

10 The girl loves this, and would rather die than give up.

11 The word is now called: freedom. That's what Mel Gibson shouted when he died - freedom!

    [Exhibition at China Film Archive] Telecine to magnetic version. It has been more than ten years since I saw it last time. The three protagonists are all the best looks in their years. On the big screen, you can fully enjoy the first-class service, art, and the impact of photography and visual effects. Coupled with Mei Linmao's music and carefully crafted sound effects, there is indeed a strong sense of film. It is a pity that the plot is so bad that it is flashy and frustrated. It is like a bowl of tofu noodles made by Man Han full table. In the second part of the line Gouxue logic, the turning and reversal of the relationship between the characters' identities is more than blunt, and it is simply abandoning the forced breaking of the previous article regardless of cause and effect. In the later stage, the more it collapsed in dog blood, the embarrassing moments of WTF abound. The wind and snow roared all over the sky at the end, but the actor's hair didn't move the slightest. It's really hard to enter the scene. Martial arts and dance substitutes are also quite obvious. Lamented that Lao Mouzi ruined his good team with bad scripts. Two and a half stars

    Zhang Ziyi's costumes are so beautiful, and dance is a highlight of the movie, which amazes me. They are all capable actors, the plot is a bit...
