After watching "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon Chronicles of the Nine Yang Divine Skills", to tell the truth, whether it is the actor's acting skills or martial arts design, plot, etc., it is indeed far inferior to the first one, but it is not a bad film, probably a few points:
First, after watching this film, I finally understand why fans will always remember Zhang Min's version of Zhao Min, Qiu Shuzhen's version of Xiao Zhao, and also somewhat understand why after watching the trailer, they have complained that "Xiao Zhao has no aura, Zhou Zhi has no anger, Zhao Min has no heroism", among the three, Zhou Zhiruo is indeed disappointing, Zhao Min can only be regarded as poor at best, although Xiao Zhao is far less than Qiu Shuzhen's version, but among the three, she is relatively good.
Second, the protagonist is not brilliant, the supporting roles are also general, whether it is extermination master tai or Yang Xiao, Baimei Eagle King, Wei Yixiao and other people have not given people a bright feeling, Huashan Second Elder forced funny is like that, as if everyone is performing similarly, not good or bad.
Third, the plot jump is too fast, for example, one second Zhang Wuji was bullied by Song Qingshu in Wudang Mountain, the next second Zhang Wuji was already on the boat to Ice and Fire Island, and the next second Zhang Wuji was still fighting with Cheng Kun and others, and the next second Zhang Wuji and Xiao Zhao were in the same boat as Zhou Zhiruo and other Emei disciples.
Fourth, some changes may be difficult for the original party to accept, such as Yin Susu did not commit suicide in Wudang Mountain, jiuyang shengong was actually learned by Zhang Wuji after returning to ice and fire island, and so on.
Fifth, the martial arts design is very general, to be precise, the play is not wonderful enough, take the bright top Zhang Wujie vs Shaolin God Monk emptiness, jet Li version is wonderful, how this version of the empty dragon gripper looks like the eight-armed arhat and the thousand-handed Guanyin (more to say that this emptiness is too unsuccessful).
If I had to score it, I'd give it a 7 out of 6.
