Because of Mingliang, I lost my beloved little lady!

Before I get to the topic, please allow me to be hypocritical. I have been planning to watch "Ming Liang" with my beloved little lady. I waited from October to November, and then postponed November to December. The release time has been delayed again and again. . When it finally came out, my heart was full of excitement, like walking in the desert with a dry mouth, and suddenly a bunch of apples fell and hit your feet, there is no! But maybe because the domestic audience of Korean movie fans can't compare with European and American blockbusters, some theaters don't even arrange the movie, and some even have the Mandarin version. Your sister, if you introduce a foreign movie, you can just type a subtitle. Why do you have to take the time to make it into Mandarin, and forget the Mandarin. What's even more hateful is that some of Nima is still in English. I'm completely broken. I want to ask the theater side, have your heads been blown away? Are you, the vast majority of Chinese movie fans and friends, all of which are so awesome in Britannia? Because I know that the little lady must like to watch the original Korean version, but as a result, I haven't found a suitable one in the booking of this theater and language selection, and the little lady is impatient. But it was too late, the little lady was so angry
that she would not accompany me, and then she ignored me no matter how much I confessed and apologized. I couldn't help looking forward to Ming Liang, and I couldn't stand this boring weekend. I booked a ticket for the last row and the edge, and I wanted to hide in a dark corner and watch it by myself. As a result, I enjoyed a VIP private room treatment, and I was the only one in a huge theater. When the plot progressed to the time when Li Zhenxian and his husband parted, I suddenly felt a deep sense of loss. At this moment, my beautiful little lady should be sitting beside me, watching the Korean movie that we all like together with me. As a result, I turned my head and saw the cold wall of the theater on the left and my backpack lying quietly on the right. I know that at this moment, the little lady must be sitting in another theater and watching the same story with me. A deep sense of self-reproach makes me unable to hold back any longer. I promised you not to cry anymore, but facing the Looking at the empty auditorium, at that moment, there were still some unbearable eyes flooding. That's how your loved one will make you tug at your heart! Okay, the hypocrisy is over, let's talk about the real thing.
When it comes to Han Ying, many people may be prejudiced, thinking that this is a self-proclaimed anti-Japanese drama in the cloak of Da Goryeo. In fact, it is not. Based on South Korea's too strong national self-esteem, Koreans like rape history, and I personally agree with it. Aside from these problems, we will only discuss the film itself today. I believe that there are no children's shoes in middle school history class who are bowing their heads and falling in love. They must have heard of Li Sun-shin. Under the advice of the nearby old farmers, the terrain, the ebb and flow cycle of the tide and the vortex of the sea were rationally used to defeat the war that was dozens of times more than the Japanese and Japanese pirates. As a war movie, Mingliang has a coherent plot, tense rhythm, grand scenes, and a very powerful soundtrack, especially Uncle Cui mobilized before the battle, reorganized the formation, and officially went to sea to meet the enemy. Considering the disparity in strength between the enemy and the enemy, 12 warships went out to sea as if they committed suicide, and they even shot the magnificent feeling of thousands of troops going on an expedition. Because the sound of the theater was so loud, it almost didn't deafen me at that time. The 60-minute naval battle scene It is extremely shocking and quite enjoyable!
However, even if a film has a good script, it still needs good actors to perform it in order to become a good film. The casting of Mingliang's actors is also appropriate. Li Sun-shin, a hero who has been beautified as a god, may not be able to control this role. And for Choi Min-sik to play the role of Yi Sun-sin, regardless of his qualifications and acting skills, he is the perfect choice. Uncle Cui appeared on the stage, facing the fact that the strength of the enemy and us is disparate, his mind is full of thoughts, and the bitter brows reveal a little unconfidence, but as a master of acting, Uncle Cui is very good at not being famous in the world. Mount Tai collapsed in front of the front without being chaotic, blended in the lack of self-confidence, and expressed it very well, giving people an aura that is not angry and self-proud, and has both the wisdom of a civil servant and the decisiveness of a military general. The villain's No. 1 character, Liu Chenglong's Mr. Kojima Tong, hides behind a deep mask, with loose hair and dressed like Yama King. When he appears, he gives people a sense of murderous fear, which makes people shudder. I can't wait to kill him with a knife, and I'm afraid that he will be hacked. On the other hand, the devil sniper played by Nuo Minyu is quite handsome. But because only one pair of eyes is exposed, Nima, I always thought it was played by a woman.
I have always liked Han Ying because it is no longer a tool for propaganda services. Although the box office issue of commercial income must also be considered, at least it is made with the attitude of working hard to make a work of art.
Movies are movies!
Personally, what I like more is the depiction of human nature in the Korean film, and the idea of ​​digging into people's hearts. Mingliang background: The Japanese army attacked on a large scale, advancing by water and land, and it was like a broken bamboo. It claimed to have 330 warships, while the North Korean side had 12 ships, and the enemy was less than a fraction. At this time, you clamored to destroy the Japanese pirates. Silly. Everyone is very scared. Normally, this is a matchup that is bound to fail and has no chance of winning. Even the state had abandoned them, the soldiers kept running away, the subordinate soldiers forced the palace and demanded retreat. face such a situation. Let's start with an episode of "Ming Liang: Celestial Dynasty Edition": Yi Sun-sin called all the soldiers together to speak generously in the face of the three armies. The duty of the soldiers is to protect the family and the country, guard the territory and protect the land. It is the people who have worked hard to raise us. , Now the time to repay the kindness of the people has come. Not only did you not perform your duties, but you blindly thought about running for your life, what should you be guilty of, and where is your conscience. Then I analyzed the current situation ruthlessly. Although the strength of the enemy and us is huge, justice will inevitably defeat evil. As long as the comrades are united and united, then we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy. When the soldiers heard it, they were greatly encouraged. They felt that they were ashamed of the people and the country. They couldn't help weeping. They were excited and filled with righteous indignation. Then the soldiers acted like one against a hundred, using the nirvana of tearing up the devils, fighting fiercely to wipe out the enemy army. OK, the Celestial Dynasty version is finished, let's go back to the real "Ming Liang": The truth is, Li listened to his subordinates' request to retreat, and he did gather all the soldiers together, but he didn't talk about defense The state, to protect people's lives and property, just ordered people to pour alcohol (it should be alcohol, as if there was no gasoline at that time) in the barracks and baggage, and then set them on fire. Don't you want to live? Do you think it's safe to flee to shore? I will not give you this illusion. If you want to survive, there is only one way, follow the direction of my finger-----forward and defeat the enemy army dozens of times our size. Seeing this, doesn't it feel very familiar? Yes, over a thousand years ago, the overlord Xiang Yu used this trick - breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat.
The two armies faced each other, as the saying goes, the brave live, and the fearful die. The greatest enemy of man comes from the deepest fear. When the disillusionment in the soldiers' hearts is shattered and there is no way out, in any case, they are all dead, then boundless combat power will inevitably erupt, because they still want to survive, which is the so-called "death or life". There is a demon of fear living in the depths of people's hearts. Just imagine, when an enemy dozens of times bigger than me is attacking aggressively, and I think of my parents, wife and children at home, I can't even save my life. At this time, I will talk to these soldiers about the country. Can national justice really turn the tide of the war? This is what Han Ying is good at today. It doesn't talk about morality and righteousness, and only shows the truest side of human nature, although it may be ugly and not so tall. But I believe that this is the most real side of the hearts of most ordinary people in the face of fear.
In addition, there is another point worth learning from Korean films of war. They are objective in their portrayal of the enemy and do not vilify the enemy. This has been reflected in "Taichi Flag" and "Highland War". In "Ming Liang", the battle was at its climax. Although Mr. Kojima-tong was shot with several arrows, he still fought hard to kill him. When Yi Sun-sin cut off his head with a sword, his body remained in a standing position. Just imagine if a group of stupid enemy troops like pigs can invade most of your country, wouldn't you be stupider than pigs?
The invincibility of our army should be built on the basis of the enemy's bravery.
Coming to General Tong's death also shows a truth: no matter how powerful you are or how awesome you are, anyone who is too arrogant will not end well. If a person respects his own comrades without understanding, Then at the most critical moment, he will definitely be abandoned by everyone. Pay attention to the cultivation of team consciousness!
Since South Korea abolished the film review and changed it to a grading system and established a special film promotion committee, Korean films have made rapid progress in recent years. Whether it is war, love, adaptation of real events, etc., excellent works of various themes emerge in an endless stream, obviously throwing out N of us grade. On the other hand, we need the market and the market; the director and the director; the actor and the actor; But it is also an anti-Japanese drama. We came out as a terrifying drama of tearing devils by hand. In some fields, we cannot produce our own best films. It is a great tragedy.
Of course, since it is a creation, it is naturally impossible to be perfect and impeccable. For example, in the chaotic battle, no one sent cold arrows to attack Yi Sun-sin; the powder keg exploded beside Yi Sun-sin, and he was only stunned for a while, unscathed; Then Jun Sha was lying on a grass boat full of gunpowder, hoping his wife would send a signal to destroy the boat, so as not to crash into the North Korean Chinese warship, the dumb girl played by Li Zhenxian really took off her coat and shook it. If my physics and history studies were not a mess, there should be no radio intercom at that time, and today, technology has not developed enough to use ideas to spread information. However, as a work of art, movies come from life and are higher than life. There will always be some exaggeration, and bugs are inevitable. Overall, this is a good movie to watch!
Based on the good box office of Mingliang, the shooting of the sequel "Luliang" has also been put on the agenda. It is said that it will adopt the method of co-production between China and South Korea. The background of the story is set in the second year after the Battle of Mingliang-----1598 , there should be a Chinese actor who will play the role of Deng Zilong, a general of the Ming Dynasty, and play against Cui Minzhi. Who will this person be? Chen Daoming? Suitable for the emperor, not suitable for the marshal; Ge You? Grow the hair out first and then...
The end!
Finally, the comment was finished, but my little lady still didn't reply to my message. Ugh! I don't know if she will ignore me in the future. We met because of Han Ying, but should we separate because of Han Ying? I suddenly felt a pain in my heart! I'm sorry, little lady, I love you!

    It's not a good movie, but it's wonderful. Some Korean movies always have this kind of skill. The naval battle is great, there are enough scenes, the plot is very good, the small whirlpool is cute and cute...

    Choi Min-sik's acting skills are amazing, only he can play Yi Sun-shin, the naval battle is magnificent, and literary dramas are of course ignored. As for the history they are talking about, I don't know what happened. The Japanese pirates have only a few ships, and their equipment is too poor. They don't even have cannons. What about muskets vs cannons?
