Five kinds of people, five kinds of poison, and distinctive character traits, which are much stronger than the so-called blockbuster movies in recent years.

American "Entertainment Weekly" movie Five Poisons, rated as the 11th most bizarre movie of the year,

but
I don’t have that connotation, and I don’t deliberately experience the alternatives to claim how different I am. I just want to talk about the characters in this movie. The character characteristics are very vivid. And some highlights

1-the big brother Thousand-Handed Centipede (a typical reckless strongman, but a runaway suit)

is a big beard, a rough personality, straightforward thinking about problems, reckless, facing the pursuit of Yamen, he seems confident, the slightest bit Not timid, is a typical brave and intrepid.


2—The second old spirit snake Lang Jun

wears silver-white snake skin clothes, and there is a silver snake logo on his wrist. Generally, this kind of character is the kind of person with a vicious heart, but he still doesn’t know when he is facing with a mask. Scorpion’s third

son said to the effect: I am a child of a rich family, and I am not greedy for the treasures of the teacher's uncle. I entered the Five Poison Sect because I was greedy for martial arts. The fifth of the elder brothers were all killed. When will such a killing become a head? The third scorpion is now going to kill the senior brother. Will it be my turn after the death of the senior brother?

In general movies, when the villain appears, at most, he bites the villain in the end. There are few such confessional monologues, but they are forced to continue to make mistakes. The second child's words also make the character's heart more vivid.


3—The third poisonous scorpion (the Maban head who handles righteousness and justice in everything that appears at the beginning)

is the most mysterious, the most sophisticated, and the deepest figure in the city. At the beginning, the master said, the third and the second , The fourth and fifth are not known, so this is more conducive to the mysterious background of the third.

When Ma Bantou and Gecko Old Man He played together, Ma Bantou seemed to be a bureaucrat with a sense of justice,

and He even teased passers-by and took a few pears from the old man Mai Li for nothing. In the end, it was the Maban leader's rhetoric that the fourth old gecko, Uncle Ho, gave the money to the old man again.

And when the fifth toad was in jail, Ma Bantou gave him wine and food. In order to dispel the suspicion of the fifth, he took a sip of the wine and took a bite of each of the three dishes, which reduced even more. He may be the index of Scorpion's third child.

Putting all these together, at the beginning, he said that he was no longer doing bad things in his hometown. He took off his official uniform and decided to go to justice with the fourth gecko. It was only when the fourth gecko went to fight with the second child's Hong Mansion that he finally revealed that he was a scorpion. The third child.

This kind of concealment cannot be said to be very deep, but for movies that are originally martial arts films, it is considered very high. Unlike the blockbuster films of these years, except that the foreign computer special effects are barely visually beautiful, the characters and plots are designed. People can guess the ending directly, and even the movie where whoever fights with whom can be guessed in advance does not know how much stronger it is.



4—The fourth gecko Uncle Ho was

more lively at first, especially his eyes turned quickly, and he felt very clever. At first, he felt that he was not one of the five poisons, but he was also very clever. In the end, he was a powerful arrest that could determine the development of things. quick.

The fourth gecko’s love and righteousness, he said at the beginning that someone could help him, the head of the Maban asked who that person was, he just said that he was a friend from the rivers and lakes he had only known.

Until the fourth gecko came back and learned that the fifth was dead unjustly, he was very well-behaved during that period, his eyes were red, and he wanted to cry, but due to the situation, he had to forbear it, which embodied his affection and righteousness but did it. Things are not so reckless.

At the end, he saw Ma Bantou take off his official uniform. He also took off his official uniform for a while. The justice that he should do as a catcher, and also toss out all the performances, this can be regarded as a brave and instructive performance.


5—Fifth Toad (white face, unrestrained face, 20-year-old man, the kind of hero that appears in most martial arts movies)

sits alone in a pub drinking, and sees a beggar dressed as the sixth child at the door (he doesn’t Knowing that it was the younger brother of the younger brother), was looked down upon by the people in the shop and drove out. He did what most knights in martial arts movies should do, that is to prevent the shop Xiaoer from despising the lower class people, and gave the beggar some money, let He eats and drinks whatever he wants.

He died very unjustly. At the beginning, he was a very confident fifth. He had toad power and was invulnerable. Unfortunately, the third scorpion broke the door with a scorpion-tailed dart. Finally he was killed in prison.


6- The youngest little brother (smart, slick, smart and know how to forbear)

personality traits youngest little brother is now a typical martial arts comedy in the beginning but in the end very badly and eventually become a generation of heroes as clever as the characters

but in This movie belongs to a penetrating character, who is a witness.


7—

At the beginning, the master of the government hall , he appeared on the stage, facing the centipede boss, he was directly a square ruler, and he was tortured immediately, which seemed to have a sense of justice.

He didn't act like that in the current movies. Once he appeared on the stage, he had to show that he was a black-hearted official. Instead, he went to Hong Mansion and saw the second spirit snake Lang Jun to show the black-hearted face.


8—Four uncommon weapons in martial arts films now.


In the martial arts movies released in recent years, they are basically stunts. A sword or a sword passes directly affects the surrounding environment, forming a very gorgeous sword energy and sword shadow.
The corrupt officials in it are basically like this: "Bold, use torture, draw and detain."

In this martial arts film, except for the stick.

Four types of torture instruments appeared. The

first was Wanzhenyi. This clothing was originally designed to break the old fifth martial arts, but it is also a less common type of cruel torture instrument.


The second one is the red vest. In the movies of the past few years, officials used tortured to extract a confession using a palm-sized red soldering iron. This red vest is more cruel. The whole is in the shape of the back of the vest. When used on people, it looks very cruel.


The third is when the eldest brother killed the eyewitness, the throat hook he used was stretched directly deep into his throat to cut off his trachea to

kill him. Prick the brain directly from the nose and into the brain, killing people.



In short, it's a bit pretending, but it's not an exaggeration or cynical statement. As a movie lover, I feel that the film made in this movie is many times stronger than the martial arts movies that have been produced in the past few years, which are copycat stunts and brain-dead plots.

    Consider the current environment. The rhythm of the action is not good. There are no brothers in the film corresponding to the five kinds of kung fu and various cruel torture methods. It is not a novelty to me who has read martial arts novels since I was a child. . But this is a movie from the 70's. Indeed, it can only be said that Director Zhang's consciousness is very good.
