Comments contain spoilers, recommend watching the movie first!
It can be seen that Quentin really likes oriental culture, Japanese samurai swords and bushido, and Chinese respect for teachers and Taoism and chivalry in all corners of the world.
The love of Oriental martial arts is reflected in the fact that Beatrice always carries the katana of Hattori Hanzo, even when facing the opponent's musket. It's no wonder why Elle wants to kill Bud.
Bud is a mean man. Bud was an unruly person from the beginning to the end, working in a pub, but ignoring the working hours, facing Beatrice, who only had cold weapons, he hid behind the door and fired a gun. But Bard kept Hattori Hanzo's katana from beginning to end. It's not that Bard's character likes the katana, it's that Quentin does. It can be seen from Bud's clothes that he has changed jobs several times, and the reason is that he never follows the rules, and such people do not value katana.
If the representative of Bud is a despicable villain with a firearm, then Elle is a gangster character who is both good and evil. It is precisely because she still respects her opponent that she will not kill Tribes with despicable means - she would rather wait for Tribes to wake up than start when she is asleep; she is furious when she hears that Budd kills Tribes. The evil is because she never respects her teacher, and was poisoned to death by Bai Mei after removing one of her eyes.
Ishii Yuling has more of that kind of gangster atmosphere. I have to say that Liu Yuling's performance is really a god-level performance, especially the scene where the hand rises and falls at the conference table. When I heard that monologue on Netease Cloud, Liu Yuling's performance immediately appeared in front of my eyes. Although I feel that Director Quentin's mix-and-match style is a bit blunt, especially when he wants to express the connotation of Chinese and Japanese culture, Liu Yuling's performance really makes people feel this kind of bluntness.
I have to say that in the final duel between Ishii Yulian and Tribis, the lighting scene was really blowing up!
On the other hand, Quentin's tolerance is indeed very atmospheric and goes beyond the prejudice between ethnic groups.
The tender part of the movie is in the two little girls part. The first is that Funita's daughter sees her mother being stabbed in the chest by Tribes with a dagger. Tribes wanted to duel outside the house, and didn't want to be discovered by the little girl, she said directly: If you want revenge, I will wait for you when you grow up.
The other is BB. Bill watched BB stomping on the goldfish but was indifferent, but what he thought was that the five-year-old she had already understood life and death, and played shooting games with BB every day, just to cultivate her sense of killer smell. When Tribes rescued BB from Bill, she returned to her childhood and watched anime.
In short, Quentin really is a creative genius.
Lau Ka Fai is a surprise to me! The performance is completely possessed by Zhou Botong, without the majesty of a white-browed hero. Later, I found this person, it turned out to be the evil sword immortal from Xianjian Sanli! rub, I always thought it was played by Jing Gangshan!
