Yes, but not really

Finally went to see the rave reviews Nanjing, disappointed. Because it is unexpectedly ugly, not unexpectedly beautiful.

In the end, I still have expectations for Lu Chuan, I think he can have it, but I didn't expect it.

The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit, war is always cruel, you don't have to use the news that seems calm and exaggerated to record the massacre to show cruelty, and you don't have to use "my wife is pregnant again" to show our spring breeze. Blowing the reborn national spirit.

Just watching it as a movie can't be called a good movie. The scenes are rough, the character design has problems, the performance is even more problematic, there is no main line, the perspective is erratic, the movie is not photography, and the close-up shots of big faces are a headache. For more than two hours, people waited for the shock, but the shock never came.

There is also plagiarism, oh sorry, the reference marks are relatively heavy, and even the shadow of Kurosawa Akira can be seen. The plot of the prostitute is too familiar.

Jiang Wen's devil has been banned so far, but this film can pass the censorship, alas, let's not say it, everyone should know it anyway. Art can only be immortal and splendid under the washing of history if it does not serve politics.

In the middle, there is a big brother in the front row shouting "x your mother's little Japan", but within a minute, the phone rang, and the big brother answered the phone gently, "Hello? Okay, I'll be there in ten minutes, can you? Be sure to wait for me." It's

called Tiehan Tenderness, and Jie is Tiehan Tenderness! !

    Lu Chuan probably won't learn to make movies.

    After watching Thirteen Hairpins, I remembered to mark this one. The film has five major shortcomings: loose plot, lack of ups and downs, cliché, lackluster ending, and it is too deliberate in many places to express sadness. There are also four major advantages: black and white creates a sense of fake documentary, including the details of priests, etc. This point is emphasized. The character of the character was deliberately highlighted. The character Xiaodouzi successfully gathered the beginning and end of the whole play. Brother Kadokawa and several actresses performed well, and did not deliberately accentuate the depiction of rape.
