It was a film that finally made me want to write something after a long time.

Although many of Jin Yanzi's roles are also linked to the whole story, the protagonist is indeed the drunk man Fan Dabei. In a short plot, this character has completed some contradictory choices and thus grows and sublimates, but he feels that this character is bad. , his choices seem to be made passively.

I mainly still want to talk about Jin Yanzi. Contrary to Fan Dabei, she has initiative but no growth. When she wears men's clothes, she is full of heroism. Zheng Peipei's eyes are smart and pure. There is the lightness and arrogance of a master and the difficulty of a teenager facing problems alone, which supports the spirit of the whole film. God. But after changing back to women's clothes, Jin Yanzi suddenly became the object of being played and rescued, which made me feel awkward throughout the second half. Until the end, she changed back to her official uniform, rode majestically on a horse, and led her Detachment of Women away, and didn't have anything to do with the drunk man, and the energy returned.

After watching the ending and looking back, Fan Dabei, the male protagonist, is also open and candid from beginning to end. He treats Jin Yanzi as a friend in need of help, not because she is a woman or because she is a lady of the official family. The difference is that at the end, he returned to the beggars and watched the government team go away.

So why is it awkward? After thinking about it, only the deep fear of the cultural background brought about by the construction of the identity of "woman" affects my perception.

The plot of this film is almost nothing to evaluate, there are countless loopholes, and probably the director is not interested in this. In addition, the martial arts design is not very good. Probably at that time, the entire film industry was still exploring the expression methods of Chinese martial arts. In some places, the style of Japanese sword and halberd films can indeed be seen. But Jin Yanzi's lightness is so good that even today's Weiya and special effects can't be compared. This flash is enough to overwhelm all the flaws in other martial arts. There is a unique image. There is some power left in my heart, and it has been bulging, making me want to practice boxing again.
