Under the prestige, it is actually difficult to match

Because I have seen some comments about the film and the Chengdu preview of "The Promise" before, I still have high expectations for this masterpiece that Director Chen has sharpened his sword in three years. However, yesterday was a big disappointment. . . . . Extreme!!! Ah!!!!
I don't know if my appreciation level is too low, or director Chen Da's methods are too high, anyway, I have never associated such a film with the title "Wuji", In contrast, the English title of the film "The Promis" seems more appropriate. In addition to dazzling colors, there is really no other word to describe the color of the whole film, which can not help but remind people of Zhang Yimou's "Hero", but Director Chen's ability to control color seems to be slightly inferior in more than one category, dizziness, or dizziness. The special effects shots are rough and fake, but they are used a lot; the relationship between the characters is also chaotic. For a long time, I didn't figure it out, so I looked tired. Several actors are famous in the circle, but having a Japanese and a Korean speak Chinese that they definitely don’t understand in a film that even Chinese people don’t necessarily understand can show the essence of the characters. That's weird. Nicholas Tse's unfamiliar Mandarin couldn't express his unhappy character at all. Except for the yin and yang strange qi, he did not become the capital of the hero at all, and the yin and yang strange qi had no major influence except for a few bursts of laughter in the theater. Cecilia Cheung's appearance is as beautiful as before, and it is possible to want to be a city, but there is not much space for her to perform, and its usefulness is not much different from that of a vase. Chen Hong's fullness is exactly what her name is, and she talks about it all day long, saying that she is an immortal, but it is more like a witch. Even Liu Ye's acting skills seemed to be completely covered by the black robe.
In general, in this film, all the people give up the attractive features they are good at, and instead want to perform in the areas they are not good at, the results are not known. But for such a film, why I haven't heard any negative comments before, it is thought-provoking.
