What to say, I don't know what you are expecting, I always have a fascination for Guo Jingming - expecting him to do something for Chinese cult gay movies - especially when I see some big snakes, daggers Yeah, beautiful women produce snakes, mages swallow sperm, and three male shikigami are summoned from nowhere. I always thought Guo Jingming would play some kind of deconstruction symbol game of heterosexuality, such as heterosexual couples making the world The narrative of comrades destroying the world together, however.
This film has a problem that Guo Jingming's film did not have before, that is, I really couldn't understand it before the big snake came out. When making movies, the Basic Law is completely ignored. I never fell asleep watching "Little Times", but I fell asleep within 30 minutes of the opening of "Qing Ya Ji". There is also a logical sequence architecture between the front and rear pages of the PPT. The suspense only remains.
Time stands still in Guo's films. Endless slow motion. A close-up of a character's non-directional face. When one side is fighting, the other side (or several sides) must be watching like a mentally retarded person, and cannot do other things at the same time, so no matter how tense the fight is, there is a slow rhythm, as if both sides only have one battery, only one battery. can operate alternately. There may be no parallel montage lesson in Guo Jingming's directing system. The rescue had to be delayed until the last minute because everyone had too much time to sell idle children. It was urgent for me, and I wanted to run up to the characters and slap my hands.
Guo Jingming is obsessed with the male actor's body. It's okay, no problem. It's good to let Chinese movies also discuss desire. Desire and protection are opposites. Desire is possession, and protection is letting go. Seimei's fight against Orochi is equivalent to fighting against desire. The desire for whom, for Boya! Didn't he always portray the characters of Seimei and the female goddesses singing every night on the side, it shows that Seimei is a person who knows how to deal with desires, but his suppressed desires are aimed at liberal arts. The release of the big snake is equivalent to the majestic desire. To learn how to use snakes to write sex in "Blue Snake", isn't it equal to becoming a shikigami... Constructing a complete symbol system in this direction can be very advanced and interesting.
But I was rather disappointed in the end. I feel that Teacher Xiao Si really doesn't know much about the movie "system" and queer theory. Doctor Strange for a while, your name for a while, Python disaster for a while, 2012, what are you going to do, there is really no originality at all. Did he say that he was going to sell the house for "Track 3", which might bring him a little closer to Tommy Wiseau.
