The style of the film is relatively gloomy and gloomy, the actors are not professional, so the performance is very dull, and the most important thing is: the script is too mediocre. With these three points, it is enough for it to be bleak at the box office. I think half of the people who watch the film must be directed at the male gods...
Actually, it is Tai Chi Man/Man of Tai Chi, but Tai Chi really doesn't show any special features in martial arts - those starter styles are fine. The meaning of Tai Chi is probably still reflected in making Lin Hu realize that life is empty of self... and so on. Actually, the story is pretty old-fashioned. The only thing that surprised me in the film was the part where the truth of the boxing match was announced later. So many big guys got together for this purpose. Although I felt they were super boring, the flashing grandpa Mao was accompanied by the line "He has changed!" , this is really the only place that can touch me. The four words "subdue the demons" in the trailer are actually the theme of this film.
The fight scene in this film is real, and there are no flaws in the whole process, but the traces of stunts are immediately obvious when Keanu is played at the back...cough. The boss who is majestic but not very good at fighting is cute.
The last qigong move is a failure. It's too fantastical and doesn't match the style of the whole film. Even if it is shaped like a palm and sticks to the person's lower abdomen to exert force and shock the internal organs.
In all fairness, the characterization is not appealing, Master is pure white, Keanu is dark, and Lin Hu is swaying in it. However, the role of Keanu is relatively mysterious. After all, he came to hold boxing matches when he was not short of money. As a businessman, he was also very good at fighting. He also personally did dirty work. Joined the team, and in the end, all the net worth was gone. Even if he ran away, he had to run thousands of miles to a duel. This is true love.
It is said that this character can have a very complex inner meaning, but the film does not dig deep, probably trying to completely shape him into a symbolic or conceptual character. . Still, the characters themselves are fascinating. This person is usually paralyzed, and the moment he sees a certain son of Tai Chi degenerate, he will ha~! Come down, turn your face and show your face. After he had nothing, he still strode out in black clothes. Is this a head that can be cut off and fashionable? Can't be lost... By the way, when he fought with Lin Hu, he repeated You owe me a life three times. How resentful 2333
PS: I really think that Chen Hu can make the film look a lot better by changing his appearance, such as a board-inch head, a round-inch head, an inch-head and so on.
PS2: The high-tech electronic screens that are common in foreign blockbusters and the domestic scenes are not the same style at all... When I watched it, it was a drama.
