Summer blockbuster! "Fengshen " exceeded expectations, and finally saw a different king Daji
A thousand calls have come out.
"Fengsheng" was completed as early as 2019 and was originally scheduled for 2020.
But for some reason it has been repeatedly postponed, and now, it has finally been released.
Before watching the film, don't dare to expect too much, because of well-known reasons,
Domestic mythological blockbusters are often thunderous and disappointed.
For example, in 2016's "Legend of Fengshen ", 500 million smashed in, and the Douban score was 3 points.
This time, however, it was different.
The look and feel of "The First Part of Fengshen " exceeded expectations.
A veritable big production, a big lineup.
Nor is it a flashy flower rack.
You can feel the intentions of the main creative team.
In addition to the look and feel of the grand production, the set furnishings, costumes, and polishing of details are unambiguous.
The appearance of many characters and the laying out of multiple plot lines are chaotic and not chaotic.
To tell the truth, as the first part of the series, it can straighten out the chaotic threads, and many characters can explain clearly,
It is not easy to advance in an orderly and smooth manner.
There are many exciting big scenes in the fast pace, and the wave of emotions gradually peaks and can fall back steadily.
People can't help but look forward to the follow-up of this series.
This will be a brand new and unique world of Fengshen God.
01 Father-in-law
It doesn't matter who your son is, it doesn't matter who you are.
Young Ji Fa, Yin Shou in his eyes, is a big hero who stands tall in the sky.
He is tall and mighty, brave and good at fighting, and a pioneer,
He has wisdom and strategy, leading the warriors of the Yin Shang royal family,
Riding a war horse across the Daoshan Sea of Fire, he swept away the rebels in Jizhou.
Ji Fa worships Yin Shou and longs to become a big hero like Yin Shou.
On that day, when the Shang prince Yin Qi's demon possessed his father and pounced on Yin Shou, Ji Fa rushed forward and assassinated Yin Qi.
Killing the Shang prince is a capital offense, but Yin Shou came forward and said that Yin Qi killed his father and the king, and Ji Fa killed Yin Qi not only not guilty, but meritorious.
In Ji Fa's eyes, Yin Shou is a fatherly existence.
The young man is hot-blooded, simple and sincere,
Outsiders see him as a typical "thief as father".
And he is in the bureau, only believing what he sees.
The Yin Shou that Ji Fa saw was what Yin Shou wanted him to see.
When a young man believes in a person, he trusts him very much, adding filters to his brilliance, and making up for it everywhere where he is dishonorable.
Therefore, Ji sent a letter to Yin Shou to build an altar in front of everyone and set himself on fire to relieve the heavenly punishment.
He reported to Yin Shou that his father Ji Chang had summoned the four uncles to rebel.
On the Longde Hall, Ji Fa's worldview values have experienced a landslide.
Yin Shou forced the four protons to kill their father and replace him.
Watching the fall of one father after another, Ji Fa's moral values established since childhood were bombarded.
Everything in front of me became so unreal that the edifice in my heart collapsed.
Even after experiencing such a moment, Ji Fa is still willing to believe that Yin Shou's tyranny is bewitched by the fox demon,
Just as Yin Jiao trusted his father.
Until Yin Shou killed Bo Yi Kao and made meatloaf for Ji Chang to eat,
Until Yin Shou broke his word and forced him to take his father's first rank,
Until Bigan dug his heart, the fox demon appeared in its original form,
Until his best friend Yin Jiao was beheaded for public display,
Ji Fa broke out, killed Yin Shou, and completed a "father-killer" in the psychological sense and action.
The growth process of the teenager is accompanied by naivety, ignorance, pain, overthrow, and subversion.
The Father of the Spirit collapsed with his own hands and killed the idol he once worried.
Ji Fa completed his difficult and painful spiritual transformation.
"The First Part of Fengsheng", the theme of father-killer towers too dazzlingly.
Yin Shou killed his father in order to seek power and usurp the throne.
Not only did he usurp the throne by killing his father, but he also encouraged the protons he cultivated to kill their father and ascend to the throne.
Ji Fa's "father-killer" is the process of mentally getting rid of Yin Shou's PUA, sobering up from the heroic worship of recognizing the thief as his father, and growing into his true self.
Yin Shou always used Su Quanxiao's story as an example, and emphasized to Proton: Your father doesn't want you anymore, I am your father.
Xibo Hou Ji Chang said to his son Ji Fa: "It doesn't matter whose son you are, who you are is important." ”
Be yourself.
Whether it is recognizing a thief as a father or killing a father, these merchant warriors are actively exploring this philosophical question - who am I?
The process of killing the father is the process of spiritual disenchantment, and the process of young people maturing and embarking on a heroic journey.
02 Vixen
Can I do another dance for you?
The fox demon is no longer a fox charmer.
Women no longer blame history.
In the Fengshen series, the adaptation of this place is an innovation of concepts and a stroke of God.
A drop of blood from Cheng Tang's descendants awakened the demon fox that had been sealed for five hundred years.
She was weak and boneless, crawling on the ground.
She walked through the crowd and went straight to him, weakly falling to the ground.
She licked his wounds, saw through his ambitions, and helped him become the king of the world.
The king and Daji are not demons descending into the world, and the lord is a bad businessman, but they are embarrassed and go in both directions.
Daji has a pair of fox eyes to see the world, and has a unique and novel perspective.
Even, she cherishes the human body.
Queen Jiang died, wanting to kill herself, Daji sighed, such a beautiful body, what a pity to ruin.
It takes thousands of years for a fox demon to cultivate a human form, and this pity should be a true feeling.
Queen Jiang wants to kill the fox demon, and the fox demon kills it.
The fox demon in the film is refreshing.
The director is narrating from a higher dimensional perspective,
Neither deliberately created the fox's demon viciousness, nor deliberately beautified it,
There is both the display of the fox demon's bloodthirsty cannibalism, and its innocent and clear indifferent eyes.
There is quite a sense of breaking through anthropocentrism.
The music and dance music performed by Yin Shou, Daji and Bo Yi Kao,
Bo Yi Kao played the flute, Yin Shou played the drum, and Daji danced.
The sound of the flute is clear, the sound of the drum is strong, the dance is graceful, and it is gorgeous.
This elegant dance music, pathos and wanton, wonderful bone-crushing, a kind of classical beauty comes to the face.
Yin Shou had a lot of fun, but he still failed to change the death of Bo Yi Kao.
It shows the tragedy and enthusiasm of this poignant dance music.
After blooming, it is the mutilation and withering of life.
Dressed in red, she dances and laughs, like a charming poppy, like a fox girl who does not know the world.
In the first Easter egg at the end, Suda has gone around the city wall in red clothes and passed through the ruins of the broken well,
Walking through the corpses, he found Yin Shou, the king of Jun, who had lost his breath.
Lick - lick his wounds, this time, in vain.
The fox demon appeared in its original form and damaged its own essence to heal the wound in exchange for Yin Shou's resurrection.
This Easter egg is a stroke of genius, lighting up the single tone of the film's grand and flat narrative.
03 Immortals
Can spells be used?
Compared with the cruelty and pathos of human disputes, the immortal trio of Jiang Ziya, Nezha and Yang Jian has a comedy style.
Jiang Ziya, played by Huang Bo, took the initiative to ask for help and receive the rank of the god list, and from the moment he came into contact with the god list, he would lose the spell and immortal art that he had cultivated for forty years.
Jiang Ziya is considerate of the sky, and does not hesitate to cultivate himself.
In the mortal world, he often forgets this stubble, which produces a playful comedic effect.
Huang Bo's comedy talent continued to Jiang Ziya, creating an image of Jiang Ziya that was inevitably humorous and joyful.
It is very different from the orthodox and serious image of Jiang Ziya in the classic, but it has a different kind of fun.
I didn't expect Nezha to be such a tiger brat, plus Erlang Shen, who was ruthless enough to make a move without much words,
In the mortal world, at the beginning, he was still restrained, and after the sentence "Can I use spells" was approved by his uncle, the immortals who let go of their fists and feet fought, with a slightly pompous style.
Sure enough, the immortal trio from Kunlun took on the comedy responsibility of the film.
However, because it is the first part, there are not many appearances and scenes of the immortals.
The first part is the song of the dynasty, focusing on the world and Yin Shang.
You can expect that in the second part, there will be real immortal fights, each showing their powers.
"The First Part of Fengsheng" can be said to refresh the stereotype of domestic mythological films in the past.
It deserves the title of a domestic epic mythological blockbuster.
The naked eye can see where the big investment is being used.
Just the fact that all the actors practiced horsemanship collectively for several months shows the sincerity of the production team.
Horseback archery in all directions, all are live-action shooting, without the need for stand-ins, which greatly increases the realism and appeal of the scene.
The magnificent battlefield scene invested heavily in the film is even more eye-catching, and the magnificence of the visual and sound effects is shocking.
"Fengshen Part 1" opens the door to a new world of Fengsheng, and we have enough reason to look forward to more exciting parts of the second and third parts.
