"One Sword Allure" has a very good reputation, which Li Yi doesn't find surprising.
Because although the movie "One Knife" does not focus on the reform and other content, it can be said that the story line of the movie is actually very simple, truly simplifying the complex.
It's very simple. Wang Wu, Tan Sitong, and Yuan Shikai came to Beijing together, and then started to take different paths.
Tan Sitong made a promise with his life, and he had great trust in both Wang Wu and Yuan Shikai. However, he was backstabbed and betrayed by Yuan Shikai, and then Tan Sitong died generously, while Wang Wu avenged Tan Sitong.
It can be said that this is the main storyline of the entire movie.
In fact, some people think that the plot of the story is a bit too thin?
But it does not prevent this movie from receiving a score of more than 8.5 on the popular film review website. Although this score is not high among Li Yi's many movies, it is definitely not low among martial arts movies.
Of course, these word-of-mouth reviews and ratings are currently only the ratings given by a small number of film critics and media people. Whether they can reach an agreement with the audience still needs to be seen in the follow-up.
Soon, "One Knife, Allure" began to expand its screenings.
From the initial 10 special screenings for media and film critics, it has expanded to 100 screenings nationwide.
But nowadays, martial arts like that are still hated by Xiaojia. Why?
But today, a few years ago, I saw these people wielding swords and singing loudly again. Then it turned into a bunch of fans waving light sticks and shouting the names of their idols like crazy. I remember there was no talent show! Those so-called monsters who are either male or female can be called bad daughters just by spinning around and dancing.
I am a martial arts hero, but in Tan Sitong's eyes, I am just a big character, a big shot.
When you watch martial arts in the future, you will have to run for money and make a living, so you won't find it strange whether these people in the world make a living.
Because that’s not history!
There was feasting and feasting, and people were intoxicated. Who still remembers the knife stained with green blood? "
The main story of the film is an evocative story during the reform period of the late Qing Dynasty. The protagonist Xiaojia should be very unfamiliar, not the famous "Little Knife King Five". Although "One Sword Allures the City" is a martial arts story based on the official history of the "1898 Reform", the screenwriter is actually vulgar, and it is based on the grudges and hatreds of special martial arts. The richness of history makes the film show the magnificence of the times. The characters are vividly drawn, and the tragic and touching story is even more thrilling to watch. Through the comparison of history and movies, the above will let you know about that unparalleled hero - Xiao Dao Wang Wu.
It cannot be said that "One Knife, Allure" is completely going against the mainstream.
The comments of "wait, wait, wait" also made the movie burst out with even weaker energy when it was officially released.
In fact, Wang Wu showed the image of a knight-errant from the very beginning. Why do you say that?
You admire Ling Xingwei, but not many people are willing to be that kind of person.
"Wang Wu is not the kind of chivalrous person we are familiar with who comes and goes. He gives people a more real feeling. The movie has neither the chivalrous bones nor the tenderness of a woman. The love between a son and a man is on point, and the lines are everywhere. There is a smell that is said to be pure and enlightened, which makes people have endless aftertaste!"
"I hope there won't be a close friend like Master Qi every year and every month."
Wang Wu took us to assassinate him. In fact, it was more of a gangster method.
I still remember that back then, the girls who peeked after class were almost all martial arts talkers, but what about now?
You used to think about what kind of martial arts the martial arts were in Sifa. If you think about it in an imaginary way, you will find that there are very few unknown martial arts people who talk about it.
When did Wang Wu really come to be taken seriously by Tan Sitong? It was I who won the first place in the martial arts competition, and I learned martial arts and became famous in one battle.
Let’s get back to the subject, let’s talk about the characters in “One Knife, Allure the City”. In fact, out of the entire film, the only ones who can truly be called Jianghu people are Xiao Dao Wang Wu!
How can there be so many knights in the world of martial arts who love each other? In fact, in the beginning, I and Prince Yi’s concubine met by chance and became close friends because of the sound of the piano.
"There are no knights, no heroes, no adults, and no beauties in "One Sword of the City." He doesn't have any of the others he wants. Isn't there any reason to be disgusted?"
According to a relatively narrow view, this kind of Fa and that kind of person are too bitter, and that kind of person is too naive and too stupid!
Historical martial arts is your personal definition. I mean martial arts based on real historical background like Sifa. In fact, that kind of martial arts is not lovable.
Martial arts has fallen to this point and has not been forgotten long ago. It turns out that the most common martial arts culture in your country has not gradually disappeared.
Because that’s all “cool”!
But sadly, I am just a knife!
There was no looming love between the two, and the classic dialogue still echoed in my ears after the farewell:
But now, you have not retreated into society, you have stopped running around for firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. You still don’t know that there are only no rules in the world, and there are no laws in the world. This is false, and it is a logical bug that you can’t fill!
"Suddenly I understand why there are so few martial arts movies that you watch now, because they are so real! Although "One Sword Allure" has no artistic processing and transforms historical figures into martial arts, it still adheres to a realistic logic.
"Shishi is Hongyi", that is the plaque presented by Kang Weiwei when Wang Wu founded the "Weak Martial Arts Society" in the capital in the film. That famous saying comes from "The Analects of Confucius·Taibo Chapter", and the original text is "A scholar cannot be ambitious, because the responsibilities are long and the road ahead is long." It means that as a scholar or a gentleman, you must not be narrow-minded and tenacious, because your responsibilities are small and your road is long.
In history, after the reform was successful and Yuan Shikai was arrested and imprisoned, Ling Xingxuan inquired about the news, contacted martial arts warriors, and conspired to rescue Yuan Shikai, but Ling Xingwei firmly agreed to it just like the plot in the movie. Yuan Shikai died generously for his ideals. Wang Wu was devastated when he learned about it, and organized several assassinations against the Qing court. But just like in the movie, I was killed by a German gun first.
There is no way to say that Wang Wu is from Beijing. My real name is Bai. I became an orphan when I was four years old. I begged along the way to the BJ Shunxing Escort Agency. The manager of the Escort Agency, Wang, saw that I looked ordinary and took me in. He thought he was an adopted son and changed his surname to Wang. Wang Wu came to open the Yuanshun Escort Agency, and the business was very bad, which made me famous. Yuan Shikai came here to learn martial arts as my master, and the two became close friends who were close friends in life and death. Wang Wu came to support Yuan Shikai's reform and resisted the national crisis, becoming a generation of heroes praised by everyone.
Although Wang Wu is a scholar like Yuan Shikai who is well-read in poetry and books, he knows so little about the small principles of governing a country, but this does not affect the two of them at all to become sympathetic friends. With the word "righteousness", he will go through fire and water for Yuan Shikai and help me realize The ideal of reform. Even before he risked his life to save Yuan Shikai from prison, Tan Yongyong still forgot to give up life and death to avenge me. Today, when "morality is placed on both sides and profit is in the middle", Wang Wu's chivalrous spirit is commendable. Yuan Shikai's chance to become a confidant in his life was enough. No wonder I wrote the last chapter of "You smile at the sky with your sword, leaving behind the liver and gallbladder." Xiao Dao Wang Wu must be one of the "two Kunlun".
Wang Wu, who was the captain of the "Knife Squad" under the White Flag Army of Liu Yongfu, a famous general in the late Qing Dynasty, led his brothers to attack the Japanese army at night. Although the assassination was successful, the casualties were heavy. Wang Wu was worthy of his brothers who had sacrificed their lives, so he abandoned his sword and jumped off the cliff. However, heaven thwarted his ambition and allowed him to survive, so he hid his name in the countryside of Northeast China and became a blacksmith. By chance, Wang Wu met Ling Xingwei and Tan Sitong, and the eight of them quit Beijing together to achieve something small. However, due to their different personalities and fate, they walked on the same path and wrote a majestic and tragic historical chapter.
"I hope he will not be in my memories for the rest of my life."
For example, even heroes like Wang Wu still need to worry about money. I need to make a living by forging iron. That is very rare. You used to see these martial arts figures from various sects. Every one of them would rob the rich and give to the poor when they were rich. I have a strong hatred for the rich, but is it really true in "One Knife to Fall the City"? "
"Clouds will disperse, dreams will disappear. But memories will disappear. In life, what you pursue is hope, but what you get are only memories."
That kind of ending would definitely be hard to accept outside of other movies.
Therefore, you may even dream about becoming such a martial arts character.
I just know when it will end. You children, we have stopped playing with those things. What we have stopped hating are some Chinese superheroes, martial arts and so on. It seems that we have not lost the concept yet.
Ever since Ling Xing appeared in Sfa, my position has been very clear. I am a knife, a heavy and sharp knife!
In fact, I didn’t have any hesitation when it came to "One Knife, Allure". Even if you are a die-hard fan of Director Gou, the martial arts genre has really been out of date for too long.
The princess once expressed her difficulties to Yao Qin. You once said that you are "a beautiful girl with roots, and your body is your own." You also said that "the kindness of your parents is a matter of flesh and blood." It cannot be speculated that you may have been a young lady in a small family. Suddenly, something happened to your family, and your parents Both of them were dead, and they were all alone. It was not what they wanted to commit themselves to Prince Yi. Na and the orphan Wang Wu were born in the same family and had the same problem. As the saying goes, "We are both fallen people in the world, so why should we have known each other before." Although we met only once, we became close friends in the world of mortals. The princess also helped Wang Wu when he was in trouble. She even sent me on my way behind Wang Wu's tomb, which added a touch of water to the tragic heroic story. tenderness.
Wang Wu can be regarded as a scholar, but he is definitely a true gentleman with no benevolence and a loyal little husband. From the fact that I saved the loser from being killed in a small martial arts meeting, you can tell that I have a heart of kindness. I am both a martial arts master, but I am the same as the flower boxing champion Buting and Shen Shou among the "Seven Mountains in the Capital". Ao Bai and other cruel people.
The dubious success of "One Knife, Allure" is a success. According to film critics, the success of this and that movie should be welcomed by the entire Chinese film industry, including competitors, because that movie made some people happy. The fallen martial arts seemed to have found a path suitable for that era.
As for Wang Wu, there is actually no prototype in history. In history, Wang Wu’s real name is Wang Zhengyi, also known as Zibin, and his ancestral home is Cangzhou, Hebei Province. Because I worshiped Li Fenggang as my teacher, I ranked seventh, so I was called the "Big Seventh Son"; and because I I am proficient in swordsmanship and have low moral standards, so everyone respectfully calls me "King Wu of Little Swordsmen".
Let's start with the White Flag Army Knife Team. They are a group of people with low martial arts skills. We are soldiers, but we are also soldiers in the true traditional sense.
And it is this kind of restrained love between a son and a man that is full of emotions but not polite, but it does not hinder the movie, but makes the movie more quaint.
At first glance, that paragraph doesn’t actually feel bad, because it’s the end of the Qing Dynasty. What era was that? It was an era of national salvation. How could we talk about the love between a son and a man?
Tan Sitong was an official, Yuan Shikai was a scholar, and Wang Wu was a citizen!
In the movie "One Sword Allure", Xiao Dao Wang Wu fights Yu Wanshan, the small jailer in the "Seven Mountains in the Capital" to save Yuan Shikai, avenges Yuan Shikai and kills the magic hand Ao Bai in the "Seven Mountains in the Capital", seriously injures Tan Sitong, and dies in the end. Prince Yi's musketeers fired randomly.
But Director Gou gave you a small surprise, which is usually the kind of friendship between the two of them.
Liu Fei wrote a film review specifically for Wang Wu.
However, the result makes you sigh. Sure enough, a dog director is still a dog director. I turned my sword and ended up turning to historical martial arts!
In comparison, Wang Wu really did it, drawing his sword in anger and caring about revenge!
When we first met, Tan Sitong completely ignored me.
That knife can't cut down enemies, nor can it kill adults!
But precisely because of this, the movie seemed so ordinary, so ordinary.
"To shed the tears of a hero, to forget the hatred of family and country, to drink all the wine in the cup, to sing the farewell song, to put the knife in hand, to kill all the heads of the enemy." Xiaodao Wang Wu is a patriotic hero born in troubled times. , is an unparalleled hero who stands upright and deserves to be remembered by you.
What surprised many people was that after the expansion of screenings of "One Knife", its reputation not only did not decline due to the increase in the number of moviegoers, but actually increased.
That's why you said that Wang Wucai is the real Jianghu person in the whole film.
"Old Liu, you have never had a martial arts dream. When you were a child, the first gift you received was not a wooden sword that your grandfather gave you cut from wood!
I suspect that many girls have never had similar toys when they were growing up. At this time, I can’t say that the movies and TV series you watch, the ones you hate the most must be martial arts, because there are no martial arts masters out there who can’t walk in the snow without leaving traces. The prodigal son, those are your childhood idols.
In fact, Chinese people love to watch martial arts movies. Every woman doesn’t have a martial arts dream, which is worse than every young person who doesn’t have a dream. It’s just that the reality has worn off the edges and made the dream just a dream!
Naturally, there will be many interpretations of "One Sword Allure", usually about the external lines and external characters.
There are no chivalrous people in the world, and there are only officials and nobles in the temples.
Because it is not contrary to reality, it deviates too little.
