Jet Li's "Shaolin Temple" once blew a whirlwind, not only in the mainland, but also in Hong Kong sold 16.15 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking 4th in the annual box office list. The popularity of "Shaolin Temple" has also spawned many Shaolin-themed works, and "Three Breaks into Shaolin" is one of them.
"Three Breaks into Shaolin" is produced by Shao, directed by Tang Jia, written by Ni Kuang, Er Dongsheng, Liu Yupu, Bai Biao, Gao Fei, Li Haisheng, Jensen, Gu Feng, Ai Fei, He Baiguang, Guan Feng, Xu Jinjiang, Chen Guoquan, Yutouyun, etc. Co-starred, the story is also a twist and turn, there is a little taste of gulong novels, the most praiseworthy nature is action design, Li Haisheng, Jiang Quan, Yuanbin, Yuanhua, Huang Peiji, Tang Jia six martial arts guidance escort, naturally not bad.
Director Tang Jia, many people may not have heard of this name, but his origin is not small, Shi Chengyuan Xiaotian, is Yuan Heping, Yuan Xiangren's master brother. Tang Jia and Liu Jialiang were once the best partners, and were the royal martial arts instructors of the martial arts master Zhang Che, and the one-armed sword, the Great Assassin, the Thorn Horse, and the Thirteen Taibao were all from them.
Compared with Liu Jialiang's words, Tang Jia has no ambitions, only wants to do his martial arts guidance work with peace of mind, as a director, there are only 3 works, namely "Three Break Shaolin", "Shaolin Descendants" and "Hong Quan Master", of which "Three Break Shaolin" has the highest evaluation, Douban is as high as 7.5 points, released in Hong Kong in 1983 won 3.44 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking 38th in the annual box office list, and the champion of that year was Jackie Chan's "Plan A", which sold 19.32 million Hong Kong dollars.
Tang Jia and Liu Jialiang, a northern faction and a southern faction, cooperated seamlessly, creating an era, if he can become a director like Liu Jialiang early, the status is by no means inferior to Liu Jialiang, he is best at designing martial arts actions according to the shooting environment and the actor's own conditions. In the case of Shaw's film loneliness and martial arts films, Tang Jia once transferred to TVB as a martial arts instructor for a period of time, of which Guo Chai, YuanBao, and Xu Zhongxin were his apprentices. There is another important reason why Tang Jia went to TVB as a martial arts instructor, that is, to be the nanny of his wife Xue Ni, and the two are also a model couple in the circle.
Speaking of "Three Breaks into Shaolin", there are four major families of Tiger Wind And Cloud Dragon Wulin in the jianghu, one day the lord of the Golden Tiger Fort was killed by four masked monks on a dart, followed by Tianfeng Zhuang Fang Changfeng was killed, the spearheads all pointed at Ye Qinghua (Liu Yupu), the descendant of the Six Devils of Kanto, Lei Xun (Er Dongsheng) and Qiao Yiduo (Bai Biao) and Ye Qinghua, in order to help their friends clear their suspicions, three broke into Shaolin, the first to break back, because there is no evidence.
When Lei Xun and Qiao Yiduo returned, they happened to encounter the baiyun zhuang lu zhuang (Gu Feng) killed, at this time Ye Qinghua said that he knew four monks, so the three of them broke into Shaolin together, this break is also the most wonderful clip, Shaolin Temple does not mean to break in, you have to pass three levels, respectively, the Spring and Autumn Great Knife Array, the Twelve Diamond Array and the Bench Array.
After breaking through the three levels, the people find the stolen jewels in the Discipline Academy, and with Ye Qinghua's identification, the Master of Emptiness (Li Haisheng) of the Discipline Academy consciously feels ashamed of the Shaolin Temple, kills the four identified monks, and then commits suicide.
Afterwards, Lei Xun and Qiao Yiduo felt that this matter was suspicious, and they carefully recalled that Ye Qinghua could not recognize the four masked monks, it turned out that Ye Qinghua was the daughter of the Shaolin Temple's Master of Seeing Sex (Gao Fei), and the Master of Seeing Sex was one of the six demons of Kanto at that time, the four major families of Tiger Wind And Cloud Dragon Wulin were their enemies, but what they plotted was not only revenge, but also to unify the martial forest, and the reason why they ignited the fire in Shaolin was because emptiness blocked his way as an abbot.
Ye Qinghua first contacted Lei Xun and Qiao Yiduo in order to use them, after using them, wanted to kill them quickly, but in the end was killed, poor Qiao Yiduo, originally wanted to collect the body for Ye Qinghua, did not expect to be stabbed to death by a knife in the end, before dying said a classic: no humanity is better than humanity.
Lei Xun broke into Shaolin for the third time to avenge his friend Qiao Yiduo, and finally started a big battle with Goofy. The funniest is the abbot of the Shaolin Temple (Zhan Sen), he used the method of sealing the cave to fake death, in order to find out the truth of the matter, the first thing to wake up is to criticize the fight Gao Fei martial arts but Shaolin third, will not seal the method of closing the cave, but also said to be for Shaolin In addition to this martial scum, the result was just made flag, immediately by Gao Fei picked up the big round ball Zen staff to spit blood, not lei Xun around, it is estimated that the abbot really hung up.
The biggest attraction of "Three Breaks into Shaolin" is naturally the action design, the second time to break into Shaolin has a break through three levels, the two protagonists belong to the battle of wits and courage to pass the level, this kind of playing method is half the effort, we also see interesting. Among them, the stacked Luohan in the Twelve Diamond Arrays is not reminiscent of the stick array of the Luohan Hall of Taiji Zhang Sanfeng and the eighteen bronze arrays of the God eaters. The "bench array" behind, the use of benches can be blocked, pressed, framed, buckled, plucked, twisted, picked, swept, bumped, hit, unstoppable, the ceiling of the shooting, the gods are skilled, is not thinking of "Fang Shiyu 2" Fang Shiyu saved his mother that bench battle, it seems that their ideas are from Tang Jia, all from "Three Break Shaolin".
Speaking of the performance of the actors, Er Dongsheng's Lei Xun and Bai Biao's Qiao Yiduo should have borrowed from Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua, Er Dongsheng was a popular young student of Shao's at that time, participated in many Gulong novel martial arts films, and Xiao Bao, who was Mei Qingmuxiu, has now become a big director. Bai Biao was really difficult to recognize when he was young, or Guo Jing of Gu Tianle's version of "Divine Eagle Hero" was easy to recognize, since playing the middle-aged Guo Jing, he was much more stable. The most regrettable thing is the heroine Liu Yupu, who looks absolutely second to kill most of the so-called small flowers, and once starred in the role of Zhao Min in the 1984 Taiwan provincial version of "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon", but unfortunately because of the original family reasons, he suffered from depression and died in 2009.
Jensen, Li Haisheng, Gao Fei, these three used to play the role of the villain mostly, this time the unified play of the monk, I don't know if tang Jia deliberately arranged, of the three only Jason can not do martial arts, but Tang Jia can let him play with Er Dongsheng and Bai Biao on the bench line more than a foot high for more than 5 minutes, have to be admirable.
Li Haisheng always seems to play some unjust roles, such as Li Chujiu of "Plan A", which is the case, and here he commits suicide without investigating clearly, which is too humiliating. In order to avenge in the film, in order to dominate the martial forest, Gao Fei involved the grievances of the previous generation to the next generation, and finally his daughter Ye Qinghua lost her life for this, which can be said that he indirectly killed his daughter. Unfortunately, in reality, Goofy is no longer there, and he died in 2017. Of course, we can't forget Xu Jinjiang, who still acted in many Shaw movies that year, until he was excavated by Ma Dangxiong and was really concerned.
"Three Breaks into Shaolin" does not rely on beautiful women, the second does not rely on showing off Xuanfu and flower racks, all rely on real fist and foot kung fu, and martial arts, weapons and formation design are all monumental memories of Hong Kong martial arts movies, students who like martial arts movies and action movies should not miss Oh.
