I will never buy a ticket to watch Zhang Yimou's movies in the cinema

The publicity about this movie at least attracted me. The poster is well done. I like the blood butterfly, but after watching the movie, I think the movie is not as good as the poster. The meaning of the film is far less profound than that expressed by the poster.
Whether patriotic or international, war or prostitute, student or church, traitor or mortician, the characters are not clear. The only thing that stands out is the Japanese soldiers. This is the deepest impression on me from the film. The hatred for the Japanese devils has been deepened.
When watching a movie, a man next to him exuded a stinky smell. On their way back to find the strings, the stinky man talked to another person, thinking they were stupid, saying that they were courting death, damn it, they deserved it. When I meet a rape scene, I seem to be excited. I don't know how this kind of patriotic movie can provoke such whispers.

It's rare to hear what the audience says in a movie theater, but this time, my entire viewing experience felt like a mass rape. Rape is being prepared everywhere, and rape is always avoided.
The war scenes were not shown very much, and the knowledge Tong Dawei saw was fighting alone. I almost fell asleep, and the long, unimpressive dialogue dragged the film down.
600 million did this. Went away because of publicity, and returned disappointed. Feel like cheated. Posters and movies have little to do with each other.
The best is probably the Qin Huai song in the movie. Others are really lackluster.
A warning to adults, don't take children to see this movie with a little common sense. There are many silly parents who take their little girls to the cinema to watch such films, which will leave a shadow on their childhood.
Zhang Yimou will never go to the cinema to buy tickets to watch movies.

    Never look at Zhang Yimou again

    A female emotional war film, women, costumes and photography are still Zhang Yimou, the character fate comparison of several groups of father-daughter relationships and the open ending are also solid, if the last is less sensational and repressive, more reasonable emotional release and emotion Sublimation, the character with shortcomings can finally have a reasonable and convincing transformation, and this film is absolutely perfect. The details are indeed very Hollywood, but the narrative technique is very Chinese - sensational to promiscuous. ★★★
