I am urgently looking for a review of the movie "Hero" or "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"

I don’t know if transferring it counts. . A hero can be someone who "doesn't keep his word and his deeds don't bear fruit".

Don’t talk about integrity, let’s talk about commitment.

Friendship can be betrayed and abandoned halfway.

The scene compiled by "Hero", which claims to "let the world understand Chinese culture" (according to the director in a Shanghai Radio report on December 20), is -

Unknown Start by lying and making up a story (I'm not teaching you to cheat). The story you make up is about Can Jian and Feixue's mutual infidelity and betrayal, and the lovers' mutual dishonesty and unforgiveness (I'm not teaching you to be cruel).

Wuming asked Changkong to hand over his life to him, but he gave up easily and without thinking. The film seemed to feel that there was no need to explain the task that his friends entrusted him with. And it was even more natural for the King of Qin to get rid of his "confidant" without any name. Just because he was "unfair" to his subordinates, he could easily abandon another hero... These knights who met each other with righteousness were not Sincerity or disbelief, wandering goals, reneging on promises, let alone ordinary people who don't understand the spirit of calligraphy, the spirit of calligraphy, the spirit of swordsmanship, and heroes

sympathize with each other.

Which dynasty did this happen to?

The majestic heroes and awe-inspiring warriors have become so humble and petty. For the sake of box office and "famousness", the "unknown" drama was just made up without careful consideration. The result is such a ridiculous meaning system. Close friends and lovers cannot communicate with each other, and martial arts, swordsmanship, and Zen enlightenment cannot make their comrades understand each other. They have to use planning, setup, pretense, and indiscriminate killing to resolve the relationship between these patriots and the direction of events.

Finally, "Wu Ming" changed his mind before the battle, and it was announced at once: betraying the trust of "Changkong" was reasonable, reasonable and legal. It is reasonable and legal for the King of Qin to betray his trust and kill "You Ming". It is reasonable, reasonable and legal to dwarf or negate the personalities and images of warriors and heroes accumulated over thousands of years of history for a certain idea of ??the director. In other words, in order to show foreigners, it is reasonable, reasonable and legal to randomly modify Chinese stories and Chinese cultural spirit. For the sake of box office, everything is reasonable and legal.

The dialogue text is rough and straightforward, which is the result of the film's superficial and fragmented connotation. The narrative itself lacks a consistent momentum, and the randomly cut paragraphs and shots have no internal connection to form a whole. Therefore, when a short circuit occurs between "good-looking" clips, a few self-reported confessions are the cheapest way to temporarily glue the stunts and cool mirrors. When the eyeballs are attracted by the pictures and actions, the poor language is often ignored by the audience. This is the shortcoming of television. Movies have also followed this path, and the one-sided pursuit of the impact of the picture must be a reason.

In full view of King Qin and his three thousand black-clad soldiers, the "unnamed" hero appeared. Under King Qin's cold eyes, the "unnamed" began to tell a story; in the eyes of the archers, "Nameless" is waiting for the judgment of his life and death... Who is the camera given to? Where is the perspective of "Nameless"? The director can have a third perspective, but the "Nameless" who have lost their perspective are "inferior" from the beginning. , the hero is short of breath.

Zero Power 101 Screenwriter

The one we have sealed has not written a script yet.

But he is considering a 2004 New Year film.

It was the vigorous momentum that stimulated him and revived his childhood dream of being a screenwriter. Of course, whether the script is legal or not is another matter...

But he has great courage. The first script to challenge a New Year's film is really a bit like the style of today's famous directors, such as Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Yimou. If they want to play, they go big, challenge themselves, and rush to new mountains. But that boy Ling, who has never even seen a mountain peak, is trying to reach a new one. He really thinks too high! He is so stupid.

Cockroach

A famous reporter specializes in writing articles for domestic entertainment newspapers and magazines, but in order to seek freedom, he does not sign contracts with any media. This is the popular IV international freedom today. The human race.

Zero: I am thinking about a 2004 New Year film. I have a very good idea now, and it will definitely work.

Cockroach: Really, then I want to hear it. I don’t know anything about the entertainment industry. If the 2004 New Year film doesn’t have some unique skills, you are worthy of the 2003 and 2003 New Year films. Isn’t it a Lunar New Year movie in 2002?

Zero: That’s it! That’s 1. What’s a Lunar New Year movie in 2002? Is it Feng Xiaogang’s “Big Shot”? What’s a Lunar New Year movie in 2003? Isn’t it that? Zhang Yimou's "Heroes", think about it, is there any connection between them?

Cockroach: Connection? I can't see it. One is playing modern and the other is playing ancient; one is playing a few big stars, and the other is playing. Just use two big stars. One is to use all the famous stars from Wong Kar-Wai and Tsui Hark's movies. They are completely different things. I can't see any connection. Oh (pretending to be enlightened)! The title of the film has two characters! Does that count?

Zero: It’s a shame that you’ve been in the entertainment industry for so long, it’s all in vain. It’s really an entertainment story, let’s not forget it, you really don’t pay attention to observation.

Of course there is no absolute connection between "Hero" and "Big Shot", but if you think about it, what does "Big Shot" reflect, and what does "Hero" play in the early stage?

Cockroach: Got it! Hype! "Big Shot" foreshadowed "Hero", and "Hero" sang "Big Shot"!

Zero: Congratulations, you finally got out at this moment . My idea was to use the method of "Big Shot" to interpret the early hype of "Hero". The title of the film is "Big Shot Hero". To put it bluntly, if he is a big shot, he is a hero.

Cockroach: Absolutely! Then yours is not a Lunar New Year movie. A Lunar New Year movie: One of them has a box office of more than 40 million, and the other has a box office of more than 100 million, so yours does not exceed 140 million. Don't give up!

Zero: Come on! Then others will immediately designate the 2005 New Year film as "Big Hero Heroes"! Of course, anti-piracy must also be done well, Zhang Yimou is air-dropping tape , this trick has been used before, it’s not new, here’s a trick, spend 10 million to buy out the pirates, and make them absolutely profitable, so they won’t pirate your movies.

Cockroach: This is, there is a line in "Big Shot" that is absolutely amazing, and it really hits the nail on the head about the piracy issue. Let me tell you, I don’t know if you still remember:

China’s audio and video industry is very rich. No! Let me tell you, there are now 27 million DVDs in China. Each machine consumes ten DVDs every year. We take a royalty of one yuan for each DVD. This dollar multiplied by ten is ten yuan. Ten times 27 million, this is 270 million. Two hundred and seventy million? Yes!

I believe Zhang Yimou must have thought of this, so he did such a good job in preventing piracy back then. It was really difficult for him. Even a senior entertainment reporter like me can't bring a camera to the premiere...

Zero: Haha! So, but I think Zhang Yimou must have settled the score like this:

< p>China’s film industry is booming. That’s right!

Let me tell you, China now has 1.3 billion people, and each person watches an average of one movie a year. If we take 2 yuan in box office for each movie, multiply the number by two times 1.3 billion people, This is 2.6 billion. 2.6 billion? That’s right!

China’s critics, especially entertainment critics, have a very strange phenomenon or habit: as soon as something new comes out, no matter what happens first, After a burst of enthusiasm, I felt that it was almost done, but suddenly it turned 180 degrees, and the previous benefits were wiped out, as if it was not written by them at all. Yu Qiuyu is like this, Zhao Wei is like this, and "Hero" is naturally not immune. It seems that the entertainment reporters are determined to carry forward this fine tradition to the end.

The focus of this article is not to discuss the attitude of the media, but to explain that no matter how people around me evaluate it, I must watch "Heroes". First of all, things that can cause controversy often make me more curious than being well-known; and I have been a fan of martial arts for many years. Apart from the crappy costume dramas that are popular nowadays, it can be said that it is a must-see for every martial arts drama; plus it is such a domestically produced " "Big" movie was born in today's highly developed computer technology. It is difficult for you to drive me away from it with criticism.

As for computer stunts, some people say that "Hero" is so perfectly done that it has overshadowed the connotation of the story itself; others say that "Hero" has no story at all and relies entirely on the showmanship of martial arts. Hold on. How much proportion of stunts should be appropriate in the film is a matter of opinion, let’s not talk about it for now; in terms of quality alone, what “Heroes” does does not seem to be as perfect as the legend says. I have seen something very disgraceful from the introduction: King Qin threw the sword in front of Jet Li and said: "You make your own choice." The sword looked as fake as it flew in the air. . I thought that mainland films could not catch up with "Lord of the Rings" in this aspect, or at least be better than "Legend of Tianmai". After all, you are richer than others! But as soon as I saw the clip of King of Qin, I had an idea, To see how imperfect "Heroes" can be. This is one of the reasons why I want to watch the film. The greater appeal naturally comes from the actors. I don't know where Lao Zhang got his face, but he actually swept away all my "old loves" (Chen Daoming, Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung, Jet Li) and "new loves" (Donnie Yen). (Forget it about Zhang Ziyi, the more I look at it, the more it looks like a vase. There is nothing new to discover.) To be honest, I didn’t have high expectations for Zhang Yimou this time, because I felt that his roots were with the farmer in "Old Well", and he was shooting for the city. The subject matter is already a failure, and the so-called "romantic martial arts film" can be imagined. Zhang himself said that filming a martial arts movie was just a dream; what’s strange is that there are so many movie stars and movie queens who are willing to help him create his dream. I feel bad if I don’t watch such a miraculous movie.

Let’s talk about it, let’s talk about music. Tan Dun has been in the limelight in recent years. He first won an Oscar, then worked on "Eternal Water", and then debated with a certain music critic. His popularity has skyrocketed. Once a person's style is established, it is difficult to change, especially after becoming famous; this is reflected in the composer Tan Dun, who has become suspected of plagiarizing the soundtrack of "Hero" from "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Personally I don't think it's a big deal. The music style of "Secret Garden" is not much the same, but the records are still released one after another and are selling very well. What's more, the soundtrack of "Bed" won the Oscar and "Hero" is competing for the Oscar this year. It is reasonable for Tan Dun to pick a ready-made song and show off to the judges. As for how similar the music of the two films is, you have to slowly understand it when watching the movie.

Chinese movies are now reaching a bottleneck. On the one hand, many of the good films made by the sixth generation directors have not been able to obtain public release permits. On the other hand, the fifth generation has given people the feeling that their talents are in decline and their talents have been exhausted. At this time, Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou, Ang Lee and others stepped forward and tried to use the operation method of "knocking wooden fish to read Chinese scriptures" to bring domestic films into line with the trend of the world film industry. Regardless of the effect of this attempt, given my courage, I will also buy the VCD of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" which has been criticized in China, and I will go to the theater to watch "Hero" with all my heart.
