An idol martial arts drama that transcends borders

When I opened the movie, I was in the mood to give it a try. After all, it was drawn in a blind box. At least I had to try it, but I was not confident that I would be able to finish it. It seems that if you set a goal every day now, you will give up because you are too sleepy at night.

But what a great surprise! This film is very un-Japanese. It should be said that it is classified as an idol martial arts drama that transcends national borders. It is better than those master-level samurai movies before in Japan, and it is also better than those traditional martial arts dramas in the past and flying contemporary special effects martial arts dramas in China. I don't know how clever.

The character of Jianxin is very attractive. He has superb swordsmanship, super fast movement, and the strength to block a hundred, but he has deep scars in his heart. That scar was far deeper than the cross scar on his face. Because of this scar, he can only use the reverse-edged sword to fill the scar in the bottom of his heart with his own beatings and injuries. However, it seems that it will never be filled. It is like a bottomless pit. Go, I don't know when I will stop. Until one day he met Xun, and Xun's sword was a cup of warm tea, and the wound poured into his heart, let his sinking self slowly stand up again, and slowly find himself.

As soon as Zuanosuke appeared, even if he hadn't read the manga at all, he guessed that he would become Kenshin's "ally". His toughness and Kenshin's agility are just a strong contrast, resulting in a beautiful dramatic effect.

Yosuke Eguchi didn't recognize him at all. He looked even more handsome after cutting off his long fluttering hair when he was young. He is the kind of person who carries the ideals of He Jianxin, and clearly knows the necessity of paying the price and the compromise with reality. Such a mature appearance may be Kenshin 15-20 years later. A middle-aged Kenshin who finds himself after the smile of a girl who melted in smoke.

In contrast, the two heroines in the movie have no sense. I just feel that Xun is always free from the outside of the play, and Gao Hehui makes me feel a little bit incomprehensible and incomprehensible.

According to the feedback from loyal readers of the comic version, there is a big bug in the plot. It is said that the climax of the movie is the scene where Kenshin saves Xun at the end, but why do I think the climax is to save Gao Hehui! The martial arts design in that match was too dazzling. First, the group battle restored Jianxin's ghostly and fast body shape and swordsmanship, and then the cold weapon evaded the firearm's strafing in the confined space. Takeda Kanyanagi, a wicked industrialist with a cannon, descended. The three parts have twists and turns, pauses, turns, and one-stop, mixed with the performance of the different personalities of the three people, and the loyalty and cooperation of advancing and retreating together. After reading such a wonderful passage, Kenshin rushed to save Xun again, feeling that the audience had no time to catch their breath and could no longer concentrate on appreciating this passage that should have been the most important. In this way, what should be outstanding is not outstanding, and what should not be outstanding is too prominent, which is a big failure.

Fortunately, I'm not looking for "spirit".

    Unexpectedly, it was made at a low cost, and the story was adapted and integrated well. The original party is satisfying. Wu Zhi praises it, and there are many gorgeous fights. It's cool. Saito's appearance is so handsome, and the movie theater is full of excitement when she puts on a fang-like posture~ Takei girl is not bad, Yumei is quite good at acting~ Zuo Nosuke has a round face and a little short, but her soul is quite right~ Sugar's It looks like a turtle from a certain angle~

    startled. How can it be so beautiful? I'm not a fan of the original book. From the comic theatrical version 20 years ago, I felt a little bit hypocritical, and I have always been indifferent to the character of Kenshin. Sato Ken doesn't like it, and Takei Saki doesn't like it, but why is the live-action theatrical version suddenly ignited? He also opened up the second vein of Ren and Du at once, and got the blood of "Rurouni Kenshin"? It is not clear whether Sato Ken injected his soul into Kenshin or Kenshin injected his soul into Sato Ken. The Killing Array is so beautiful and neat that it catches the eyeballs and the soul together at the beginning, and the sense of speed and motor nerves are amazing. The literary play is relaxed and warm again. The scene of holding a bunch of small balls and smiling, instantly convinced me of the character "Kim Shin". I watched it a few times later and burst into tears. After watching it in the middle of the night, I couldn't sleep for a long time. , There is no way to hate Ken Sato anymore, and there is no way to imagine that Kenshin can have a second person besides him, and even the fifth lady is particularly pleasing to the eye. Successfully entered the pit. To finish this series.
