Don't be poisoned

As a kung fu fan, to be precise, as a kung fu movie fan, the release of "Huo Yuanjia" is a major event in cultural life for me. I went back to Chengdu yesterday, and went out to watch a movie this morning. The movie is half price in the morning. We ordinary people live a life. If we can’t achieve both material and spiritual civilization, we can only find some soft persimmons all over the world. By the way, the reason why I got up so early during the Spring Festival holiday, which is celebrated by the whole country, is completely forced by the crazy movie ticket price. The current movie ticket price is so outrageous that it will hurt once to watch a movie. Vitality, but most of those who are hurt are those men and women in love, to be precise, the vitality of men in love. Fortunately, when I fell in love, I was still watching movies on college campuses, and the fare was so cheap that people today would be completely collapsed, and I could watch a movie with a high-sounding sound after plucking 10 steamed buns between my teeth; later I graduated. Now, the movies outside are not expensive. At that time, my slogan was, buy one less pair of underwear and watch one more movie. Later, the movie skyrocketed, and Mr. Zhao Guoqing, who will always live in our hearts, launched a "5 yuan" in Chengdu. Ticket price", that's cheap, watching a movie is like washing underwear, it is simple and convenient, and it is necessary for life; later, the 5 yuan ticket price died, the movie ticket price soared, and I also cheated my wife in time, From then on, whenever I mentioned watching movies, my wife always said thoughtfully, "Why don't you watch the disc..." I asked inexplicably, "Miss, didn't you like watching movies before? What about now?" The wife said : "Xianggong, you don't know something. In the past, my money was my money, and your money was your money. Now, my money is my money, and your money is my money, so it's a matter of spending money. You must think twice before proceeding.” Now, every time I pass by the entrance of the theater, I always look at those young men who are full of pride and melancholy, and then secretly glance at the smiling young women beside them, and sigh faintly. gas.

Again, let's go back to "Huo Yuanjia". Jet Li has long stated that this is his last martial arts film, expressing many thoughts and insights over the years. What I think about this is that Wen Yi Zaidao is already very suspicious, and Wu Yi Zaidao is even more irrelevant. I like you, and I like your beautiful and sharp kung fu, not those big truths that are scary to say. Some people have criticized the film quite a bit, saying that the rhythm, lighting, and editing are not perfect. My opinion is that this is really unnecessary. After all, this is not an art film. If you watch it, you will not understand. Go to Wang Jiawei, go to Zhang Yimou to see the customs, go to Chen Kaige to see the ICBM. For a shallow person like me, let's look at kung fu honestly. All the way, Huo Yuanjia has gone from being aggressive and ruthless to being neutral and peaceful, from fierce and shady to floating clouds and water. The famous seven weapons, the reason why other weapons did not show up, is because they are all lost. In a word, cool.

In "Once Upon a Time", in addition to the beautiful and sensible Thirteen Aunts, the trick is the most unforgettable. In the martial arts, the imaginary step and the bright palm are purely cool tricks for posing, and many people have done it, but only Jet Li posed Yuanding Yuezhi. The master style that Master Li Moumou does not have. This proves that although there are a lot of kung fu movies, there are very few real kung fu movies, and the basic skills are absolutely insurmountable. In "Huo Yuanjia", Jet Li is still sharp and sophisticated, concise and neat, and still plays the beauty of rhythm like classical music, which is really a pleasure for kung fu fans. However, there are two regrets. The first regret is that it is said that there is a wonderful episode of martial arts VS Muay Thai, which was stabbed by the teachers in mainland China. In recent years, Muay Thai has become very popular, and its momentum in the international film circle is directly overwhelming China. Kung Fu, I can't see this part, I'm really angry. Another bigger regret is that it is also Jet Li, Yuan Heping, and the same real style. "Huo Yuanjia" is really inferior to "Fighting Heroes" more than 10 years ago - if anyone likes "Huo Yuanjia" "Yuan Jia", then you must watch "The Hero of the Spirit" - this can't be blamed on anyone, only time. Heroes are like lovers who change their minds, and belong to an objective existence that does not depend on people's subjective will.

The TV series "Huo Yuanjia" has influenced generations. I am the same age and older than me, I am afraid that no one does not know "the Great Wall will never fall". In the TV series, it depicts the integrity of the Chinese nation, but in this film, the national integrity is downplayed, and it is more about the spirit of martial arts. The Japanese devil poisoned Huo Yuanjia, and he was not allowed to take revenge, which made the audience below all bloody, eager to rush into the screen to kick the devil and let him cut off his son. Why is there such a plot design? I guess it should be out of international box office considerations. This is a depressing age of globalized business.

Finally, let me say that although the so-called heroine Sun Li has not many scenes, she is unforgettable. I like Sun Li, she looks pure, clean, bright, lovable, I like it.

    It's actually quite outrageous to make a biography of a martial arts master so blunt and sensational. How to say it is like in times of famine, when you can’t get enough to eat, you force-feed you a handful of spiritual opium, and tell you that you are done with martial arts and patriotism.

    The subject matter is good, but Jet Li played the role of Sun Li because he wanted to play it so well
