In the hot summer sun, going out to the cinema is hot to sweat, and the air conditioning in the auditorium is blowing cold, at this time, the network movie has played its absolute advantage, and you can enjoy the latest film works comfortably without leaving home.
Today, I will recommend you a big online movie "The Rise of the Deadly Sword".
It is divided into two parts, full of material and full of energy, let me feel the highest production level of today's net university.
The three main genre elements of the film are like three swords, each of which points directly to the hi-point of the online audience.
The first sword: wuxia
In recent years, there have been many networks involving the type of costumed martial arts, but most of them are low-level works based on spoofs, ridicule, and jokes, and there are few works with serious themes.
Director Zhang Meng's "The Rise of the Deadly Sword" has largely filled this gap.
The movie is about the "eight masters" of martial arts who have been in the limelight for twenty years, who have encountered black hands one after another, and they are all killed by their own unique skills, and for a time the rivers and lakes have set off a bloody storm.
The protagonist of the film is a small catcher Duan Xiaofeng of the six doors, although the martial arts are mediocre, but this young detective of the Tang Dynasty has strong memory ability and reasoning ability, and he chooses to step into this muddy river and lake alone to find the remaining members of the "Eight Masters".
Thus began a far-reaching adventure, and a long-buried bloody case was gradually uncovered by him.
The reason why "The Rise of the Deadly Sword" is refreshing is because it removes those complicated and fancy eye-catching gimmicks, and just uses a very easy-to-understand story to create a chivalrous martial forest that is happy to be vengeful.
In the details, it is also restored to the original face of the martial arts world as much as possible, satisfying the audience's full imagination of the jianghu of the sword and light sword shadow.
For example, the eight masters in different sects dueled against each other; the six gate catchers still abided by their duties to eradicate evil after being removed; and in the end, evil has evil retribution; good has good and good karma; all show the ideological connotation of typical Classical Chinese martial arts.
Every character is standing, especially the film's clue character Duan Xiaofeng, in the face of love, brotherhood, morality and many other emotional choices, he does not mess around, adheres to principles, and is a very positive character image.
The second sword: suspense
There are two "murders" at the beginning of the film.
First, Xue Lishi, one of the "Eight Masters", was pregnant with the Canglong Breaking Skill, and when he returned to the Hidden Countryside to farm, he was injured by another canglong broken body that turned out to be born out of nowhere, and turned into a scorched black corpse;
Second, Zhao Chengfeng, the leader of Zoroastrianism, confronted a masked man, but was eventually killed by the Fierce Wind Flame Knife.
These two unknown deaths lead duan Xiaofeng, the head catcher of the film's clue characters, Six Doors, to try to uncover the truth of these cases.
The three elements of "benguet reasoning" are: detective, puzzle, and reasoning. The same applies to this costume suspense film.
Duan Xiaofeng, the head catcher, is equivalent to a detective and is a person looking for the truth; the successive deaths of the eight masters constitute the core puzzle of the film; Duan Xiaofeng leads his "assistant" Zhou Butong and the heroine Wang Feiyan to conduct physical reasoning based on on-site evidence, and also combine the entanglement of interests between the Jianghu sects to conduct psychological reasoning.
Therefore, the first driving force to promote the development of the entire plot is that the audience and the characters in the play are interested in "Who is the real murderer behind the killing of the eight masters?" " guess.
And the audience gradually let the real murderer surface with the male protagonist Duan Xiaofeng's in-depth investigation and meticulous reasoning of the case.
In terms of plot structure, the upper and lower parts of the film are also clearly distinguished, the previous one is mainly to state the case and explain the context, and the next one is to find out the real culprit and the truth is revealed.
So when the audience watches this movie, they can clearly understand their thinking.
And its appearance also proves that suspense films do not necessarily have to be placed in the scientific world, and martial arts fantasy films can also use the mode of suspense reasoning.
The third sword: action
When watching this play, I occasionally think of the shadow of "Xiuchun Dao 2 Shuluo Battlefield", because they are all well-made costume films with similar era backgrounds, and there is also a common point, that is, both have a large number of action scenes, and it is these action scenes that make the "film sense" of "The Rise of the Deadly Sword" particularly strong.
Almost every action scene in the film directly promotes the main storyline, such as Shangguan Hong, one of the eight masters, being killed by the masked man's snow cicada silk in XiaoxiangGuan, while another group of masked people use martial arts to kill Xiao Yanke.
Together with the previous deaths of Xue Lishi and Zhao Chengfeng, they all added a more mysterious and eerie atmosphere to the whole mystery.
Speaking of atmosphere, the picture sense of these action scenes is very strong, and the rendering is particularly outstanding, take the scene where Shangguan Hong and the masked man fight, Shangguan Hong holds a guzheng, his body is suspended, the shot is fierce and fierce, and the light and shadow are suddenly radiant, producing a strong lethality, but because of the invincibility of the masked man's snow cicada silk, the guzheng is broken into two pieces, which has a traditional sense of beauty.
Action scenes not only account for a large proportion, but also basically every action scene is combined with computer special effects, and realistic post-production creates a strong visual impact for the film.
It is also with these special effects that the legendary Dragon Break, The Wild Wind Flame Knife, the Snow Cicada Silk, the Pupil Technique, and the lethal lethality of the Deadly Sword are magnificent and earth-shattering.
Therefore, audiences interested in martial arts action movies must not miss it.
