I have watched Heroes of Heaven and Earth for more than three times, and I personally feel that it is a good film that has been buried.
1. This is a man-only movie with a compact plot. Jiang Wen, Wang Xueyin and Nakai Kichi vividly interpret chivalry, evil, loyalty and the contradictory characters.
2. The scene is magnificent but unpretentious, and the scene of the horse's west wind is far better than the deliberate pursuit of color and form in Hero and House of Flying Daggers in the same period; The dialogue is simple but forceful (Jiang Wen: "Samurai don't kill indiscriminately, and Samurai can't be killed indiscriminately", "Sometimes killing is innocent, but not killing is guilty")?
3. Although the "Buddha's light reveals the sage" is a combination of realistic martial arts and magical colors, it does not feel abrupt and absurd.
4. Several supporting roles are also brilliant. The characters' personalities and psychological descriptions are unique, and the immortal and the earth tiger are the most impressive.
Except that Zhao Wei's narration is too weak and even gild the lily, this is a rare good film.
And the year of the animal,
The Year of the Animal is a tragedy about those who lost their time.
Finally, 24-year-old Li Huiquan was stabbed to death in the street, and he also finished his depressed, confused and desperate birth year.
The death in the story seems to be an accident, but it is also inevitable.
Li's death was a symbolic end, because even without the last knife, his heart had already died.
What I want to express most in the Animal Year is the human itself. The times cannot be copied, but people's circumstances are often the same.
Even now, there are countless young men like Li Huiquan. They may become murderers with one wrong step, or they may be killed carelessly.
They are just a group of marginal people who are outside the mainstream of society.
In the news hotspots that appear from time to time, in fact, they can often be seen.
Sometimes they are hateful perpetrators, and everyone has to punish them, and sometimes they are poor victims, which can arouse the love and tears of countless people.
