Speaking of Chen Zhen in film and television dramas, I am afraid there is no one more famous than Bruce Lee and Jet Li . This is also one of their best works and has resonated with countless fans.
So the question is, who is better, Jet Li or Bruce Lee's Chen Zhen?
is different from Jet Li's martial arts practice since childhood. Bruce Lee was not only talented in martial arts, but also received a good higher education. He speaks fluent English and writes very well. Judging from the works he left behind, he can explain profound martial arts principles in a clear and logical manner, and even people who do not understand martial arts will be impressed by him. No wonder he can create Jeet Kune Do and lead a generation of martial arts trends. Become a true martial arts master.
But in the play, Chen Zhen, played by Bruce Lee, is an impulsive and passionate man. The classic line he left behind is "I don't study well, so don't lie to me." This is actually very different from his own knowledge and quality. It can be seen that Bruce Lee is not only great at kung fu, but his acting skills are also remarkable.
Although it is a work in the 1970s, Bruce Lee's real skill in riding a bridge and riding a horse is still exciting to watch. His signature kicks and charismatic shouts always make people excited.
Because Bruce Lee's portrayal of Chen Zhen was so successful, the crew of Jet Li's Fist of Fury spent a long time polishing the script alone when they started filming, because their goal was to surpass the previous film.
For this reason, Jingwu Heroes not only invited Jet Li, Zhou Billy, Qian Xiaohao and other kung fu masters, but also invited Chen Jiashang to be the director, and gold medal martial arts instructor Yuan Heping to be the martial arts director. It is absolutely super luxurious. line-up.
Jet Li's Chen Zhenzhen is very different from Bruce Lee's version. He is calm, wise, calm and calm.
The movie opens with a scene where he is studying at Jingdong University. It can be seen that he is no longer a martial artist, but a dignified elite.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people from the Black Dragon Society came to make trouble. Jet Li's version of Chen Zhen decisively stood up to protect his girlfriend and defeated these gangsters with clean and efficient means. He was merciful and did not maim them, but only temporarily lost them. Action ability, which reflects his benevolent feelings.
Jet Li's version of Chen Zhen combines Western Sanda and traditional routines in terms of martial arts achievements. It is unique and very effective. It can be seen that the effect achieved by Chen Zhen in each martial arts competition in the play is different.
made a big fuss at the Hongkou Dojo, and Chen Zhen tried his skills, showing his eagerness to avenge his master.
's battle against Huo Ting'en shows Chen Zhen's self-taught skills, his integration of Chinese and Western martial arts, and his collision with traditional martial arts.
challenged Funakoshi Fumio, which was a mutual discussion between the two top masters of China and Japan, and Chen Zhen improved his martial arts realm. In
's battle with Fujita Tsuyoshi, Chen Zhen showed his self-transcendence in the face of a powerful enemy.
Every martial arts fight is not only punchy but also very beautiful and highly enjoyable to watch. Especially Jet Li, as a former martial arts champion, he is always so majestic and calm when showing off his routines. Coupled with the camera switching, it can be said that he has reached the highest level of movie martial arts.
The realm displayed by Chen Zhen in the two versions is also different. Bruce Lee's version of Chen Zhen still focuses on vendettas and conflicts between China and Japan, but Jet Li's version of Chen Zhen is no longer limited to national hatred of foreign powers, but shows a great power style and a spirit of self-sacrifice.
It can be seen that Jet Li's Chen Zhen has indeed surpassed Bruce Lee's version of Chen Zhen, but the role of the former cannot be underestimated. Many wonderful scenes from the latter were inherited by the former. It can be said that Jet Li's Fist of Fury stood on top of Bruce Lee's Fist of Fury and achieved astonishing achievements. Jet Li's Chen Zhen is a tribute to Bruce Lee's Chen Zhen, and of course it is also a transcendence.
