With the help of the Moonlight Box, Zixia saw that her lamplighter was the Monkey King who would cause trouble in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years later! But in this life, he is just an ordinary person named Zhizunbao (played by Wu Haochen), and he is preparing to inherit his father's (played by Wu Mengda) noodle shop. Lighting the lamp in the first life and getting married in the third life, what is the fate of Zixia? Is the Supreme Treasure the one you love?

The most heartbreaking moment for movie fans in the original Westward Journey is when the Supreme Treasure puts on the golden hoop and turns around to face his beloved on the tower. The complex emotions intertwined in it make the audience Tears rolled down her cheeks. In order to give the audience a stronger sense of immersion, the crew of "The Origin of Journey to the West" specially went to Beibao, Yinchuan Town, where the original version was filmed 27 years ago, and filmed many scenes.

The biggest highlight of "The Origin of Journey to the West" is how to tell the origin of the Supreme Treasure and Zixia in their previous lives? The characters of Zhizunbao and Zixia are also interesting this time: Zhizunbao is no longer a cynical wanderer, but a "little fanboy" who transforms into Zixia, and gradually falls in love with her on the way to find the lamplighter. Zixia's line in the trailer, "I've always wanted to turn you into the person I like, but I've long been used to the way you are now," made her cry. In reality, most people's love is not earth-shattering, but something that happens naturally and easily. .

Get up today and watch Tencent Video to continue writing the love of your life! "The Origin of Journey to the West" is released, recalling the classic 2

On February 11, the movie "The Origin of Journey to the West" was launched on the official video platform. This movie stars Wu Haochen and Ma Rui, and has a guest appearance by teacher Wu Mengda. Because it is Uncle Da's last work, it is highly anticipated by many movie fans. Of course, there are too many adaptations of "Westward Journey". Therefore, before the release of "The Origin of Westward Journey", some fans said that it simply ruined the classic. Based on the complete viewing of the entire content of the film, I think this "The Origin of Journey to the West" has captured the essence of Stephen Chow's "Westward Journey" series and is considered a relatively good movie.

Let’s first talk about the essence of Stephen Chow’s version of “Westward Journey”. It is not the essence of satirical comedy in Stephen Chow's early films, but a fairy tale-like interpretation of the love content of young men. How to say this? "Westward Journey" tells a very simple story. In his youth, a man will always meet a woman he likes, but because of his lack of ability, this woman can never stay by his side. Once he realizes his desire, With the transformation at the level of "Monkey King", this "woman" was wiped out.

This kind of fairy tale-like content about young men’s love is not that profound. But this point can sting many young men. Therefore, after Stephen Chow's "Westward Journey" movie went north, it was the first to be praised by many children in college. At that time, the Internet had just emerged, and it was still the era of BBS. These college students who were the first to have access to the Internet touted "Westward Journey", and the followers who followed the trend were overwhelming.

When "Westward Journey" was first released in Hong Kong, the word-of-mouth feedback from film critics and fans was not good. The reason was that it was too simple emotionally and lost the early performance of Stephen Chow. The essence of satirical comedy. Later, after being touted by the group of college students in the BBS era, this concept of love was also widely recognized by college students because of its simple expression. We might as well ask one more question, why are male college students often willing to agree with this view of love in "Westward Journey"?

Because male college students have received better education, especially this kind of self-examination education. At the same time, they also began to face more outstanding female college students. These female classmates were actually their Zixia Fairy. And a male college student who has not graduated is just a monkey without any achievements. It is more difficult to marry the Zixia Fairy next to him than to cause trouble in the heaven. And once these male college students can become the "Monkey King" in their respective fields, the Zixia fairies will have already married and given birth to two children.

For many boys who have not gone to college, first of all, they are unlikely to meet the "Purple Cloud Fairy". In fact, they don't have to feel emotional about life and love. Will comes. College students like to interpret their favorite movies in a more complicated way. Moreover, this group of people like to establish classics and are not willing to listen to others saying that the classics you have established are nothing more than that. If you don’t believe it, look at the reader comments section at the end of my article. Some people must think that "Westward Journey" is very advanced and exists like a god. I call it ordinary, but they don’t agree.

After understanding the emotional essence of "Westward Journey", you can conduct a film review and analysis of "The Origin of Westward Journey". This posthumous work of Ng Meng-tat continues the love content in "Westward Journey". How can a noodle seller protect Fairy Zixia? After he ignites this kind of love, he needs to let himself To become the Monkey King, once you become the Monkey King, you need to face sacrifices. The final ending of "The Origin of Journey to the West" is that Fairy Zixia sacrifices herself again to save this noodle seller. "Poverty" and "incompetence" are still important narrative contents of this movie.

"Poor" and "incompetent" can sting many young people. Especially now, it can sting many male college students even more. The more they return to their hometowns to celebrate the Spring Festival, the more these male college students will feel this way. Especially in the film, the young actor Ma Rui's realization of the Zixia Fairy can indeed make many male movie fans empathize. Being poor and longing for beautiful women makes it easier to think that "The Origin of Journey to the West" is a journey of dreaming, and that one can become the Monkey King. The advantage of quasi-fairy tales is that they make their specific audiences and movie fans feel that their emotions have been volatilized and they can achieve short-term life satisfaction.

I personally don’t like "Westward Journey" and "The Origin of Westward Journey". The reason is that this kind of work is just a short-lived dream or a short-lived film and television work. Just smoking. My view on literature and art is that one should not smoke or drink, should not be drunk, and should not be confused. One should keep his eyes open and his mind awake, and use a realistic approach to analyze the tragic fate, why it happened, and whether it could be avoided. As far as love stories like "Journey to the West" are concerned, I would rather see if in reality, the noodle seller can marry his own Zixia Fairy through his own efforts, and what happens after he gets married.

Even the noodle sellers can enjoy it instead of being labeled "stinky". How can we build respect among all walks of life instead of false distinctions between professions? As a result, everyone can support themselves, realize love, support their families, etc. through their own labor. These are obviously beyond the reach of "Westward Journey" and "The Origin of Westward Journey". These works only touch on an imaginary love content, which is as pretentious as a petty bourgeoisie drinking coffee.

Therefore, my conclusion is that young people should read more realistic works and sell less tears in such hypocritical petty bourgeoisie pretentiousness.

The release of "The Origin of Journey to the West" evokes memories of classics 3

The reason why classics can become classics is that they have unique charm!

Even if you watch it repeatedly, you can still get different feelings from it!

I believe everyone knows a lot about Journey to the West. This is a classic of the golden age of Hong Kong films. The rating on the website is as high as 9.0.

In the hearts of everyone, they have become unsurpassed existences.

The official announcement of the film adaptation of "The Origin of Journey to the West" has aroused great concern among netizens in the industry.

This work is adapted from "Westward Journey: Moonlight Treasure Box", and the big IP has provided it with enough traffic and popularity.

Netizens are looking forward to seeing more scenes from Westward Journey in this work and seeing the memories that once filled them.

The first two Westward Journey movies directed by Stephen Chow told the story of the love between Sun Wukong and Zixia Fairy in their first two lives, and this movie tells the plot of their third life. The two fell in love and killed each other. Intoxicating.

Stephen Chow’s works have always been highly sought after by everyone, and the reason why the Westward Journey movie has become the focus of public attention is inseparable from Ng Meng-tat.

Ng Man-tat is a well-known veteran actor in the industry and the most outstanding supporting actor beside Stephen Chow. He has presented classics to the audience countless times. Even in small roles, under his interpretation, he seems to be able to Find a unique feeling!

Ng Man-tat is a person who can do his best to perform the role even if he is a green leaf.

However, unfortunately, such an outstanding actor passed away due to illness last year. Ng Man-tat's death attracted the attention of many friends in the industry, and everyone expressed their condolences.

Some netizens said that the works performed by Ng Meng-tat are memories in everyone's hearts. After he passed away, we don't know how many classic films we have missed.

And do you know? This Westward Journey movie is Ng Man-tat's last work before his death. Perhaps it is because it is so memorable that it evokes endless memories.

Many netizens said that they would watch this film even if it was just for Ng Man-tat.

Adaptations of classic works, whether they are TV series or movies, are usually criticized and criticized by the original party.

Although today’s production technology is more advanced, current actors’ performance skills have also been improved to a certain extent.

However, remakes of classic works are rarely praised by everyone. Perhaps because the current social pace is too fast, everyone cannot calm down and figure out a character thoroughly.

In order to avoid these rumors from the outside world, Westward Journey Westward Journey.

In the early stage, I have tried my best to do my best.

The script crew has nothing to say. As a classic IP series, it is definitely not much different.

Ng Man-tat is the focus of everyone's attention, but he is not the starring role in this movie.

The Supreme Treasure is played by young actor Wu Haochen.

Maybe everyone doesn’t know much about him, but when it comes to Xiao Yuanqi in Nirvana in Fire, maybe everyone will remember him!

Of course, he has also participated in Ode to Joy. In these films, the roles he played have distinctive personalities, but he has never been able to seize the opportunity to star.

The role of Supreme Treasure in this movie may be a great driving force for his career development.

The heroine Zixia Fairy is played by Ma Xinrui. Her temperament and charm are indeed not as outstanding as Zhu Yin's back then.

However, some netizens said that she looks very similar to Brigitte Lin. Most of the works she has participated in are online dramas, but the popularity and traffic are still very high! ,

The supporting cast of this movie is definitely top notch! The other supporting actors are all golden supporting actors in Stephen Chow's movies. Yuan Xiangyan, Zhang Mei'e and others are all driving forces at the box office.

With them, the reputation of this movie will definitely be the same!

This work will be officially launched on the platform on February 11th.

When netizens saw the trailer of the movie, they all shouted that they would definitely not miss this movie.

This movie contains too many factors, including classic IP, full of memories, and also the condolences of netizens for Ng Meng-tat.

The work is indeed worth watching.

Ng Man-tat has disappeared from our lives for a year, and during this period, netizens continued to express their condolences for him.

There are even many netizens who have repeatedly reviewed the characters and works he has presented to everyone on social media. This time, their wishes have finally come true.

This work has actually been filmed long ago.

But due to various reasons, it has been shelved until now, which still makes people feel quite a pity.

Ng Man-tat did not see his classic work during his lifetime.

Let us appreciate it for him this time! Pay tribute to the classics, classics never go out of style!

However, judging from the status of the first two Westward Journey movies, this movie will definitely be another tragedy in the end. Everyone must prepare tissues when watching the movie.
