When I first saw the promotional poster of "Sword Rain", I felt that the male protagonist of this film was not handsome, the female protagonist was not beautiful, and the actors were older, but out of love for martial arts, and the perennial martial arts book famine, or went to the cinema to contribute a movie ticket, after watching it, I found out - true incense!
The plot of this movie is by no means something that a few young actors can shake the scene, and only old drama bones such as Yang Ziqiong and Wang Xuexi can show the role vividly.
Plot Highlights:
The plot of "Sword Rain" has ups and downs, and the moment reversal is unexpected.
You think that such a big person as the Wheel King must be in a high position and have power in the opposition, and he turns out to be just an old eunuch with no status in the palace.
You thought that there must be a twist and turning emotional entanglement between Drizzle and Lu Zhu, and as a result, Lu Zhu quickly received a box lunch.
You think that Jiang Asheng is honest and generous, and it turns out that people are a hidden swordplay master; you think that Jiang Asheng is a spoiled wife demon, and as a result, people approach Zeng Jing just to take revenge; you think that Jiang Asheng will definitely kill Zeng Jing to avenge his father, and as a result, people just want to help the killer wife solve all the big troubles.
Ye Xiaoqing did not succeed in seducing the Wheel King, and thought how honest and selfless the Wheel King was, and how he sat still, but he just couldn't do it, no, he wasn't no, he wasn't.
Ye Xiaoqing took advantage of the drizzle to seduce Jiang Asheng, watching Jiang Asheng stupidly walk over step by step, really worried that this honest person was on this set, but this honest person took away Ye Xiaoqing's clothes and shouted and shouted for neighbors to come to the house to see the crazy woman without clothes.
Twists and turns, reversals and reversals, the plot direction of "Sword Rain" is unexpected, but reasonable and really fascinating.
In just two hours, but a wonderful martial arts story is narrated clearly and clearly, which is really much better than the so-called masterpieces that have been seen and obscured.
Character Development:
Every character in "Sword Rain" is impressive.
The heroine, Drizzle, was originally the strongest killer of martial arts under the "Black Stone", ruthless and ruthless, and never soft in performing tasks, but after encountering Lu Zhu, she involuntarily moved her feelings, and since then, coldness has become benevolence; ruthlessness has become sentimentality. After Lu Zhu's death, he obeyed Lu Zhu's last wishes, hid his name, changed his appearance, and became a kind cloth seller, Zeng Jing. Zeng Jing's charm lies in her courage to let go of her unbearable past and bravely start a new life.
The male protagonist Jiang Asheng, who was originally Zhang Renfeng, the son of Zhang Haiduan, the first assistant of the former dynasty, was originally a rare person with outstanding martial arts and a rich life, but unfortunately because of the half-cut body of Rama, he was tragically destroyed by Black Stone overnight, and he was also seriously injured, but fortunately he was saved by well-wishers. In order to get revenge, he transformed into Jiang Asheng through Li Ghost's hand. The good news is that although Zhang Renfeng has suffered great changes and is determined to take revenge, his kind and loyal nature has never changed.
The mysterious leader of the "BlackStone" organization, the Wheel King, and the three excellent killers he brought out, their ordinary lives are very ordinary, not much different from what we ordinary people do every day.
Cao Feng, the reincarnation king, was an old eunuch with a low status in the palace, who was usually responsible for mailing a letter or something, and was often humiliated by other powerful little eunuchs; Lian Rope was a trickster, showing his juggling skills on the street every day to scare people; Lei Bin was a good man who loved his wife and loved his children, liked to eat noodles, and usually loved to study the way to eat various noodles. If there is no task, then they are the inconspicuous Zhang San, Li, Four, And Five hidden in the crowd, but when they perform the task, they are excellent killers who recognize money and do not recognize people, and kill people without blinking.
The complement killer Ye Qingqing is a representative of an alternative woman in life. She is vicious, greedy, extremely lustful, jealous, and a typical beautiful and beautiful woman, but her IQ is very ordinary. When he asked the Wheel King for pleasure, he learned that he was a eunuch, and immediately turned his face like a book, one second or the Wheel King licked the powder, the next second he immediately sneered, the vicious sentence was like an arrow of evil heart, and then he wanted to take the silver ticket to scatter the gang and leave. The Wheel King couldn't bear it, and his anger rose from his heart, and evil turned to his guts, burying this only woman who had ever felt his heart alive.
The small supporting roles in the "Sword Rain" drama are also brilliant, such as the landlord Cai Da Niang, almost like the living neighbor aunt around us, that is, gossip and warm and kind, and a little love of money, the most like to match matchmaking, see Zeng Jing A single woman selling cloth is not easy, it introduced her to a lot of objects, it is simply a small blind date, but unfortunately the person introduced to the crooked melon jujube, so that Zeng Jing cried and laughed. Cai Da Niang saw that Jiang Asheng always paid attention to and helped Zeng Jing, so she introduced Jiang Asheng to Zeng Jing, which contributed to this beautiful marriage.
Another small supporting character, Li Ghost Hand, is extremely skilled in medicine and has an extremely eccentric personality, but also has a great sense of justice. Everyone who looks for him must tell him clearly about his past and present lives, ins and outs. He was also the only one who knew that Zeng Jing was Drizzle and Jiang Asheng was Zhang Renfeng, and he more clearly understood the blood sea deep hatred between the two of them. Because he sympathized with Zhang Renfeng's plight, he told Zhang Renfeng the whereabouts of the drizzle, and strictly speaking, he was the real matchmaker of Zeng Jing and Jiang Asheng. When I learned that the two were married and truly in love, I couldn't help but feel that the fate was really wonderful.
Martial Arts Scenes:
The fight scene of "Sword Rain" rarely uses special effects, and there are very few stand-ins, and the scene of hanging Weiya flying around is extremely rare, even the scene where Zeng Jing was seriously injured and fled by the Wheel King, it was also Yang Ziqiongshi jumping over the wall, and the jump was slightly hasty and unstable, which was worrying. The actor's one move and one style of battle, you come and go, the action is neat, the posture is beautiful, so that the martial arts fans have been greatly satisfied.
Cast:
In the drama of "Sword Rain", there is no traffic star's face paralysis to play cool, there is no youth idol's childish youth to cope, the actors are generally older, and the big S who plays the beauty killer Ye Xiaoqing may still be one of the youngest. Yang Ziqiong, Wang Xuexi, You Benchang, Li Zonghan, Guo Haidong and other powerful drama bones took turns to fight, contributing wonderful plays, literary dramas, and inner dramas, with exquisite acting skills and addictive behaviors.
Write at the end:
I have to admit that this is an era of the decline of martial arts.
I went through all the video platforms and was stunned that I couldn't find a brand new martial arts drama that could be watched.
There are very few TV series, and movies are even more scarce.
Today's martial arts works, only the famous works of Mr. Jin Yong are still being remade.
What's even sadder is that some video and fiction platforms, even the martial arts classification has disappeared!
Does today's society need martial arts and no need for heroes?
I thought about it for a long time, and finally gave myself an affirmative answer: No matter what era the society develops into, justice, chivalry, martial arts skills, serving the country and the people, and the purpose of martial arts will always be our precious spiritual and cultural property.
What can contribute positive energy to the human spiritual world and social development is definitely not the bottomless you and me, the qingqing and me, but the spiritual strength that can give people a high spirit and work hard.
May the future martial artists still be able to continuously provide mankind with a righteous chivalrous heart, a high-spirited effort, and a great dedication to the country and the people in the era of love and brain domination.
