"Looking for the Dragon" builds a complete and independent world view, allowing the audience to remember the rules and techniques of touching Captain Jin. For example, using the gossip compass to divide gold for positioning, after entering the tomb, a candle must be lit in the southeast corner. If the candle is extinguished, the found treasure must be restored and then exited, etc., seamlessly combining the wisdom of the ancestors with modern technology, It fully demonstrates what the authentic touch gold model is. Logically, Hu Bayi and the others entered the underground palace for the first time and took out the details of a Japanese sword from the body of a Japanese soldier, to reveal later that the other side of the flower does not bring people back to life, but the light it emits makes people hallucinate and lays the groundwork for the story to be established. .
In addition to the well-crafted story, the cool special effects and art vision concocted by director Wu Ershan have once again improved the industrialization level of Chinese-language films. The heavy texture of the coffin, the magnificent underground palace, the beautiful and vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia, the thrilling and fierce fighting, and the low-pitched sound effects make watching the movie an audio-visual enjoyment. The dialogues and performances that are close to the true nature of the characters make the film full of humor and wit, making people nervous and sometimes laughing.
The few emotional scenes in the original book were adapted into the main line to guide the development of the story. Does Hu Bayi love Shirley or Edin Sitian? I kept thinking about it while watching the movie. What "Looking for the Dragon" is looking for is not the real treasure, but the past of Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. In the past, there were many emotional entanglements, complaints, injustices, competitions, and the pain of smearing injustice. Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan, who came to the United States, were decadent and lonely. After revisiting their old places, they completely let go and start a new life. Wang Kaixuan said that he could die for Ding Sitian, and Hu Bayi finally showed with practical actions that he could sacrifice himself in order to save Shirley. The past has become a memory, and it is true to cherish the talents in front of you.
Chen Kun has never had a well-recognized masterpiece. Once the Dragon-seeking Art came out, he could be branded with him. His long bohemian hair and well-fitting overalls gave him a different charm. He played Hu Bayi, which was not only handsome, but also fit for purpose. original. Although Huang Bo is not fat, he played the Wang Kaixuan in the landlord's mind, carefree, emphasizing love and justice. Xia Yu is worthy of being the best actor, the big golden tooth that completely subverts the image, and he is indispensable in his performance. In comparison, the two heroines Shu Qi and Yang Ying are slightly inferior, but in the world of face, they only need to be beautiful enough in the movie, haha.
"Looking for the Dragon" is just the beginning of the Ghost Blowing Lamp series. After this film, the trio will truly embark on a new adventure. After watching the movie, I was already looking forward to the sequel.
