<>One of his favorite movies in 2014, whether it is literary drama or martial arts, the young director Lu Yang has a good control of it。Use martial arts to promote literary drama, literary drama does enough articles, there is nothing new in fighting, and the deepest impression after watching it is the character modeling. It is not surprising that the film won the Best Styling Design at the 51st Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards.
The casts of the movie are enough, but the box office is not high. Zhang Zhen and Liu Shishi are the biggest characters in this play, the most famous, and the most important roles. But the effect of watching the movie is that except for Liu Shishi's red dress who was initially surprised, I had almost no big impression of her.
It stands to reason that Liu Shishi's role is extremely important, she decides whether the movie has or not, but she just can't feel its importance during the movie. Zhang Zhen is the same.
The reason is from **? It's definitely not a script, then it can only be acting。Liu Shishi's acting skills are speechless, they are as bad as ever, especially in the movie.
Zhang Zhen's performance is not good, it is just a normal level, and it is difficult to reach the height in Wong Kar-wai's movies.
Ding Xiu is a character who is both evil and righteous in the movie, he is a Jianghu person rather than a system person, and he is the only one who can be happy in the whole play.
The last time I watched "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", I recognized Nakai Guiichi as Wang Qianyuan, and almost made a joke. Wang Qianyuan's acting skills have nothing to say, which can be seen from "Rescue Mr. Wu". In this play, Wang Qianyuan is more of an eye play, sitting around that scene, you can see his inner activities from those eyes.
The most amazing thing about the movie is the plot, which is not so much a martial arts movie as a political movie. In another timeline, Jin Yiwei is the secret police. The director's officialdom of the Ming Dynasty uses the past to satirize the present, satirizing the officialdom and colluding with people's hearts.
is about the rights and wrongs of officialdom rather than grievances in the rivers and lakes, and you have to admire the director's Spring and Autumn brushwork.
The only one who is not in the system in the whole play is Ding XiuTake a long Miao knife, which is a weapon used in the fight against the Japanese invaders, and those who don't know it will find it strange. This is precisely the character's character.
Zhang Zhen's weapons are embroidered spring knives and crossbows, which can be far and near, and among the three brothers, he is resourceful.
As the youngest and sickly third brother, his weapons are two short knives with light blades, and he pays attention to the skill of striking, which is consistent with his identity and personality traits.

As a commercial film of romantic martial arts, "Embroidered Spring Knife" is more realistic than previous martial arts movies, the protagonist is no longer dusty and chivalrous, in addition to martial arts, he is just a "mole ant" with a humble identity and a "mole ant" who lives patiently for the sake of necessity and hardship in life. Whether it is a protagonist who is stoic and loyal, or a villain who uses power for personal gain, they are just "pawns" in the power struggle, and everyone is trying their best to survive. The sorrow of the little people in the struggle for politics and power is vividly displayed.
Born in that era of internal and external troubles and storms, the eunuch party is in control, and everyone thinks about their own interests. The so-called "right and wrong" and "loyalty" have lost their original meaning. And that pure feeling seems to be precious in that troubled world.
The eldest brother in Shen Lian's heart, his third brother. He wants his eldest brother to be a hundred, and he wants to stay with Miss Zhou. But fate made people, the villain's betrayal and the revelation of the matter forced his eldest brother and second brother to death; But fate made people, and the girl Zhou she admired with all her heart was actually caught by herself back then, and she was only afraid of herself.
The so-called karma, the so-called everything happens for a reason. <>
Gonggong Zhao is right, since he fell in love with this brother, the end of the three brothers is destined to be destroyed. The ants are used as a tool in power struggles, and thus become deeply involved in high-level political intrigues, and their fate is long out of their own hands. This is the backbone, and everything else is the branches.
The three brothers represent different contradictions, and the contradiction of the eldest brother comes from the fact that the environment has changed, but the concept has not changed. The contradiction of the second brother comes from the fact that his thinking has changed, but his identity cannot change. The contradiction between the third brother is that his identity has changed, but the relationship has not changed.
They are denying the general environment, denying their past selves, and denying their past relationships. These three contradictions, generally speaking, are the contradictions that everyone is involved in to a greater or lesser extent. How to deal with the past and the present, the inner and the outer, the self and others is a never-ending problem.
It has to be said that this is a film that is already very attractive in the text itself. I don't talk to you about the dilemma of love and righteousness, but I really showed you that it is difficult to do everything in the world. <>
Everyone in the film has their own desires. Some seek fame, some seek profit, some only seek to stay with their beloved, and some seek brotherhood. Living in this world, we constantly challenge our humanity and bottom line for what we want. And in the end, they all belong differently.

For most people, the actors' good looks, good acting skills, compact and logical plots, and martial arts actions should be the main reasons for the classics of the "Embroidered Spring Knife" series.
As far as I am concerned, there are two other different "friendships", a unique feeling for the Ming Dynasty and a past study of the special "position" of Jinyiwei. The three reasons for the popularity and the two unique feelings basically constitute the source of my obsession with the "Embroidered Spring Knife" series.
Many people fell in love with Zhang Zhen's handsomeness because they watched "Embroidered Spring Knife", and many people knew about the actor Zhou Yiwei for the first time because of that sentence: You have to add money, and some people met Wang Qianyuan because of the boss's righteousness. When the embroidered spring knife was just released that year, except for Liu Shishi, there were not many stars in the movie who could get their hands on it, and the popularity was not as strong as it is at the beginning.
Many people just have the mentality of trying it out, but after you read it, can you still like it?
"Embroidered Spring Knife" is such a popular movie, which does not belong to the traditional sense, but it has been performed with its own characteristics. In addition to the bonus points brought to the movie by the rise of actors, the creation of the script and the design of the martial arts action scenes are also among the best in similar movies.
Finally, allow me to babble on some digressions. When I was a child, there were so many dynasties in ancient times, and for some reason, I have always had great curiosity and interest in the Ming Dynasty, and I once fantasized that if I traveled through, I must go to the Ming Dynasty. The period in which the movie "Embroidered Spring Knife" is located belongs to Chongzhen at the end of the Ming Dynasty, which can be regarded as the last glory before the decline of the Ming Dynasty.
Whether Wei Zhongxian is guilty or not can be defined by a few comments from historians. Whether Jinyiwei is similar to today's urban management or the Ministry of State Security has also made me think day and night, and there is still no answer!

Let's take a look at the lineup of this series of movies: "Embroidered Spring Knife" - Zhang Zhen, Liu Shishi, Wang Qianyuan, Li Dongxue, Nie Yuan, Jin Shijie, Li Hongtao, etc., "Embroidered Spring Knife 2: Shura Battlefield" - Zhang Zhen, Yang Mi, Zhang Yi, Lei Jiayin, Xin Zhilei, Li Yuan, etc., The actors in the movie are basically acting schools, and they are all good at acting.
Even the controversial Da Mi Mi was praised for his performance in the second part, and as a main character, he was also driven by a group of drama bones and created a very heavy role in the movie.
Can the evaluation of a movie with the participation of a group of acting schools be bad?
Some viewers commented on several actors in the movie: Nie Yuan is an old ginger, Wang Qianyuan is like a pot of strong tea, Guojun Wang is a little weaker, but it is not bad, a bowl of clear soup, Zhou Yiwei is simply a Du product, which is addictive. Zhang Zhen is a handsome guy with facial paralysis, but wherever the camera sweeps, he just has an innate feeling that makes you feel that the temperament of this character is like this, it's him.
Personally, I think that such an evaluation is accurate and natural, and it is very enjoyable to watch these acting schools play together.
In addition to the cast, the plot and costumes and props of the "Embroidered Spring Knife" movie are also worthy of praise.
First of all, in terms of plot, the order of the "Embroidered Spring Knife" series is "Embroidered Spring Knife 2: Shura Battlefield" before "Embroidered Spring Knife 1", which is the prequel to "Embroidered Spring Knife 1", but in fact, the plots of the two movies are not very related, they can be regarded as two independent stories, but the completion of both stories is very high.
In the first part, Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne, and the great eunuch Wei Zhongxian and his eunuchs were destroyed by the Jinyi Wei Qing Dynasty. Among the brocade guards, the three sworn brothers are the most brave and upright. Zhang Zhen plays the second brother Shen Lian among the three brothers of Jinyiwei, the eldest brother Wang Qianyuan, who is eager to be promoted to a hundred households, and the younger brother Li Dongxue, who has no money for treatment and has been blackmailed by his senior brother.
And Shen Lian himself is obsessed with Zhou Miaotong, an official prostitute played by Liu Shishi, and wants to help her save money to redeem herself. Although the three of them are brocade guards, they are also miserable, and they are surviving in the world.
And in the second part, the time setting is the prequel to the first part, during the period of Zhu Xizong in the Ming Dynasty, at that time, King Xin was still a prince who was forbearing, Wei Zhongxian and Dongchang were rampant inside and outside the court, Jin Yiwei, a book of impermanence and thinness, and carried out the murder task according to the words in the book. Shen Lian, the Jinyi guard, fell in love with the painter Hokusai played by Yang Mi, and later betrayed his colleagues for Hokusai, thus falling into a conspiracy.
Secondly, the costume and weapon research and martial arts design have completed the blockbuster, "Embroidered Spring Knife", "Jinyi" Wei, and the most handsome fighting official uniform "Flying Fish Suit" and other props have history to examine, and the martial arts scenes are also real fighting scenes, and winning the Golden Horse Award for Best Action Design is the biggest praise for the movie.
In addition to props, there are also movie shots that have been blown up by professionals, and the back and forth switching of different cameras in the film, with the expressions of the actors, all in one go, makes people sigh at the intentions of film production.
In general, the "Embroidered Spring Knife" series of movies is a martial arts film with excellent plot, actors, martial arts, and service, which is worthy of praise from the audience.

In terms of personal perception, "Embroidered Spring Knife" is a very solid craftsman work among today's domestic costume action films. So the rating is very good. A film like "Embroidered Spring Knife", although it is not too good, it is also excellentIn today's environment, you can get ahead.
Its small and medium-sized cost, serious choreographing and directing team, all the actors working hard, solid scripts, and a fairly good look and feel, all taken together, are the so-called "works of conscience" of national films. The filming method of the whole scene is completely academic. As a screenwriter and director, Lu Yang's attitude towards the film "Embroidered Spring Knife" is serious and serious, which is quite amazing, but it's a pityToo much pursuit of stability, less aftertaste.
The script can be called the conscience of national films.
The main body of the whole story of the first part only takes place in 3 days, and then there is an ending of "two months later", and the rhythm of the narrative is very stable. Judging from the entire story line, the main line and branch lines are not scattered, and the degree of completion is very high. Each character comes with its own complexities.
The story is based on Emperor Chongzhen's accession to the throne after sweeping Wei Zhongxian's eunuch party as the background of the story, although the historical restoration, props and costumes are not too good under the cost limit, but it is a little right: from the details of **, costumes, etc., you can see the team's intentions.
The second part is a prequel to the first part. In the seventh year of tomorrow's apocalypse, Shen Lian, the Jinyi Wei of Beizhen, in a mission to sweep away the chaotic party, killed his colleague Ling Yunkai in order to save the painter Hokusai. After that, on the one hand, he had to get rid of the doubts and investigations from Lu Wenzhao and Pei Lun, and on the other hand, he set fire to the Jinyi Wei Experience Division under the coercion of the mysterious woman.
Wrapped up in troubled times, Shen Lian and Hokusai fell in love, but they fell deeper and deeper. And behind all this, a huge conspiracy is secretly laid out. All beings are like ants confined to the Shura field, and the battle against the scales is about to break out.
For the heroines in the two movies in this series, whether it is Liu Shishi or Yang Mi, there are too many people on the Internet who scold the street, don't watch it, throw off a star, and so on because of her. Personally, I don't understand why they are so hated. In these two works, there are actually no particularly annoying actors, and if it's just black because it's black, it's too boring.
Finally, I will say two, the biggest advantage of this series of movies in my eyes:
1.The character of Shen Lian, the choices he made in the movie, was actually a helpless move, he is one of the few actors in costume action movies who writes completely with a realistic creative attitude. He does not have the freedom of the chivalrous male protagonist in the past, only the endless life of "reluctance".
In those days and ages, it was better to live than to die.
2 embroidered spring knife is not only the ** of Jinyiwei, but also a symbol of their "ant" status, and it is also the shadow in the heart of their beloved. There are many pictures of embroidered spring knives directly penetrating the characters' bodies in the film, showing their cruelty, and it also represents that the knife has two sides, and different choices have different pros and cons.
-
Embroidered spring knife, flying fish suit, is the standard attire of the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, so the embroidered spring knife is a kind of standard knife of Jinyiwei at that time, not a unique famous knife.
-
Yes, in history, Jinyiwei's saber was indeed called the "embroidered spring knife".
-
The embroidered spring knife is the standard saber of the Ming Dynasty secret service Jinyiwei. The shape of the embroidered spring knife combines the characteristics of the Tang knife and the Shaolin plum blossom knife and the single knife, which is mainly lightweight, and at the same time narrow and slightly curved, which is easy to carry and attack at a medium distance.
In some TV series of the Ming Dynasty, we can all see Jinyiwei. >>>More
Because he didn't cure Ding Xiu's junior brother, this is a bit of a medical trouble.
Personally, I have always believed that a series of movies, as an independent single film, no matter which one of the series is taken out alone, must have the characteristics of being able to become a complete movie on its own. You can't make the audience unable to understand just because they haven't watched the prequel or haven't watched the first part. If the audience can't understand this movie because they haven't seen any of the previous related movies, it is already a failure for this movie. >>>More
History has highly regarded the achievements of Song Renzong, and the economic, cultural and technological prosperity was high during his reign, such as the first paper money in the history of the world; The improvement of movable type printing, the culture was widely disseminated. But militarily weak for a long time. In terms of emotion, Song Renzong is not a scumbag, because although he is sorry for Queen Cao, he doesn't love her in the first place.
is very beautiful and powerful, a female singer with both virtue and art, much better than some domestic B stars who can only show off.
