The late Hong Kong famous comedian "Uncle Da" Wu Mengda's posthumous work "The Origin of the Journey to the West" will be broadcast on a video platform on February 11, as one of the best golden supporting roles in Hong Kong films, Wu Mengda and Stephen Chow have cooperated to achieve a golden time for Hong Kong comedy films, and also helped Chow become a generation of "king of comedy".
Unfortunately, there is no eternal peak period in life, since the two have cooperated in "Shaolin Football", people will no longer see the new movies of these two golden partners on the screen, and the audience is looking forward to when they cooperate again, what they did not expect is that Mr. Wu Mengda suddenly died of illness on February 27 last year!
There is no wu Mengda in the world, but there are still many film and television works that have not been released before his death, namely "Golden Armor", "The Origin of the Journey to the West", "Heavenly Reverse Knight Variant" and "I Am Not Bruce Lee". Among them, "I Am Not Bruce Lee" is actually scheduled to 2049, and I think I don't want to show it to the audience.
As uncle Da's last film to participate in the filming of "The Origin of the Journey to the West", which is about to meet with the audience, this film that pays tribute to his classic work "Journey to the West", Wu Mengda plays the father of the supreme treasure, opening a noodle restaurant, ready to let his son inherit his family business, not knowing that in five hundred years his son will become the Great Saint of Qi Tian.
Since it is an adaptation of the "Journey to the West", it is naturally indispensable to the Purple Xia Fairy, she is still the wick in front of the Buddha's seat, but life is about to burn out, to find the person who lights the lamp pulled out the purple and green sword to resolve the crisis, with the help of the moonlight treasure box to find this person who has a relationship, but also found that he is the Qi Tian Dasheng who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years later!
Before hearing the news of the release of this movie, there were actually many audiences looking forward to it, just because the name of the movie was called "Journey to the West", which was the work of Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda, and they all wanted to see those new interpretations in this movie.
In addition to the role of Wu Mengda, the protagonists of this drama, Supreme Treasure and Zixia, are also looking forward to it, playing the Zixia fairy is Ma Xinrui, born in 94, who has participated in popular dramas such as "A Slight Smile is Falling City", "Youth Fight", "Drunken Linglong" and so on, the person is very beautiful, just see if you can use the super high value to control this super difficult role.
Playing the supreme treasure called Wu Haochen, also born in 94, has participated in "Ode to Joy", "Langya List of The Wind Rising Changlin" and other popular dramas, combined with the casting of the male protagonist in major film and television dramas this year, the appearance of the face value is not in the minority, this may be the same, beyond is impossible, it depends on whether the acting skills have the strength.
Since this movie is adapted from "Journey to the West", it is certainly indispensable to the love story between the Zixia Fairy and the Supreme Treasure, telling the events of five hundred years ago in more detail, as Zhou Xingchi, who has been imitated but has never been surpassed, I don't know how many nonsensical comedy elements in this movie can bring joy to the audience, but from the choice of supporting roles, many have the shadow of Zhou Xingchi's movies.
The actress's appearance in the film is obviously imitating the Spring Thirty Niang, not to mention, there is really a little similarity.
The classic golden supporting roles in many Zhou Xingchi movies have also made this movie have more points to watch, such as Yang Neng, who has participated in "Shaolin Football", "Mermaid", "Kung Fu", and "Journey to the West".
It was first noticed as the wonderful dance of pork guys in "Shaolin Football", then an ordinary villager in "Journey to the West", and finally became the curator and mermaid in "Mermaid".
There is also Yuan Xiangren, a hermit who has starred in "Kung Fu" and "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qi'er", Yuan Xiangren is the younger brother of the famous martial arts instructor Yuan Heping, and he is often seen in Hong Kong films, but none of them can be remembered in just a few seconds in Stephen Chow's movies.
There is also Zheng Jifeng, who plays Zheng Jifeng in "The Mermaid", as a classic supporting role in the film, as soon as he appeared, he laughed at the audience, with a unique laughter coupled with a bald hairstyle, and the scene of flying around with a flying machine on his back made people laugh more than once.
Zhou Xingchi's unique charm is to make every small role very brilliant, seemingly inconspicuous, but can become a classic on the screen, and the addition of a well-known comedian Nine Holes also added a little new color to the film, although he did not participate in Stephen Chow's works, but also a well-known actor in the comedy industry, who has participated in "The Unknown Generation", "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and "Crazy Racing" are also classic works of comedy movies.
So many comedians participate in this movie, it depends on how they interpret to amuse the audience, and the love between the supreme treasure and Zixia that makes the audience difficult to let go in "Journey to the West", can there be a more perfect ending?
As can be seen from the title of the movie "The Origin of the Journey to the West", all this is just the beginning, since Zixia can trace it to five hundred years ago, the love between them will inevitably have a result.
You seek her, dependent arising, you do not seek her, the fate is extinguished.
When you see Uncle Da's iconic smile again in this movie, you can bring us too many classic memories, whether you can pay tribute to the classic again, there is joy, there is love, look forward to seeing.
