Jin Yong Martial Arts is a timeless IP, every few years there will always be a new Jin Yong martial arts film and television work coming out, because of the new environment, new actors, directors are always happy to remake it.
Today, iQIYI officially launched a Jin Yong martial arts movie " Legend of the Condor Heroes : Eighteen Palms of the Dragon", which occupied the top five on iQIYI's hot list as soon as it was released, which shows the popularity of Jin Yong's works. !
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is Jin Yong's famous work, and the characters in the book have long been household names. So, what is the quality of the movie "Shooting the Condor" adapted this time, the following editor will lead you to take a look.
Due to the time limit of the movie, the plot of the movie must be simplified and simplified. The plots of Niujiacun, the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan, and the growth of the desert are directly deleted. At the beginning, Guo Jing appeared directly. From the desert to the Central Plains, he met the little beggar.Huang Rong , and the old beggar Hong Qigong et al.
The woman from White Camel Villa , and the maid of Ouyang Ke , completely transformed into "white skin, beautiful long legs" (very cool clothes) as soon as they appeared on the stage, the two women came up to tease Guo Jing as soon as they met, Is this to cater to current trends and audience tastes?
Here I would like to talk about the Seven Eccentrics of Jiangnan. I don’t know what the director and stylist thought. The Seven Eccentrics of Jiangnan have really been filmed as “weird” this time! Although their martial arts skills are average, all of them are heroes and chivalrous heroes who really dare to fight injustice for ordinary people. But this version of the seven monsters' clothing looks like a triad. Although it is quite aura, it always feels that it does not match the connotation of "Shooting the Condor". Ke Daxia 's eye mask is really unique. The face of the brilliant scholar Zhu Cong was turned into a white impermanence by the makeup artist.
Guo Jing and Huang Rong's meeting and acquaintance was also a bit abrupt. When the two met again in a restaurant (which felt like a nightclub), Guo Jing was not surprised when he saw Huang Rong in his daughter's body. Amazing feeling. Then the two fought a big python to save a baby. After watching it here, there is a sense of "wild python disaster". The White Camel Villa is a snake, but such a big python really makes the audience dance a bit. .
Since the film is titled "The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon", then the plot of the old man named Hua Hong Qigong's biography of Guo Jing's eighteen palms of subduing the dragon should be highlighted, but the film was finished in a hurry in two or three minutes. The scene where Guo Jing practiced the Dragon Subduing Palm is still in slow motion as always! ! ! I feel that this is a common problem in domestic martial arts movies! Can't you have some one-stop, hearty motion design?
Hong Qigong passed on Guo Jing's 15 palms to subdue the dragon, and then the plot jumped to Peach Blossom Island to ask for relatives, Guo Jing went to Peach Blossom Island and was hallucinated by the blue sea tidal music of Huang Lao Xie , and it turned out to be six mentors. Mourning Peach Blossom Island, Guo Jing is a prophet of uncertainty. Going to Peach Blossom Island, Guo Jing somehow came to the cave where Zhou Botong lived. This version of the old urchin Zhou Botong is played by Hong Kong old drama bone Lin Zicong , Lin Zicong has worked with Zhou Xingchi many times, very comedy Talented, he performed the playful habits of the old urchin, but also gave people a feeling of the old urchin's multiple personalities.
Guo Jing came to Peach Blossom Island, but Huang Laoxie didn't know him? There is also a sentence, "This young hero, who is your name?" Does this make us watch this movie completely without the original book? The person who plays Huang Laoxie is also Guan Lijie, an old Hong Kong drama player. Although he is wearing a green shirt, he has not created Huang Laoxie's arrogant and unruly personality of "seven points of evil in the middle, and three points of justice in the evil". .
The "Three Questions" was originally a very exciting plot in "The Condor Shooting", and the film not only deleted the scene where the three masters of Dongxie, Xidu and Beibei competed in martial arts, but even Guo Jing and Ouyang Ke competed in martial arts. Very sloppy, and the fighting scenes are still all kinds of slow motion! Due to the length of the film, the plot always gives the audience a sense of incoherence, and there is no Yang Kang from the beginning to the end of the film, even the killing of the seven monsters in Jiangnan by Xidu and Yang Kang has been changed to Xidu and Ouyang Ke, Not only is this adaptation nothing new, it leaves the audience feeling IQ insulted.
The more I look down, the more incredible it is to me! Ouyang Feng easily subdued Hong Qigong and Huang Laoxie, and even arrested Huang Rong. Under threat, Guo Jing recited " Jiuyin Zhenjing ". Although in the final Huashan Lunjian competition, Huang Rong told the whole story, and Guo Jing recited the Jiuyin False Scripture, but this kind of self-justification is somewhat of an afterthought.
What puzzles me the most is that the video is two-thirds of the way through, and Guo Jing has never used the Eighteen Palms of Dragon Subduing! ! !
"The highest state of martial arts is not to compete for high or low, but to have the mind of saving people and the world" , this is what Guo Jing heard in his dream when he was in a coma. The theme of this film is forcibly sublimated.But when I think about it carefully, I always feel a little reluctant. There are not many martial arts scenes in the whole film, and I don't see any traces of Guo Jing's growth in martial arts, let alone how Guo Jing saves people. Since the film deletes the background of the times, it is even more difficult to express Guo Jing's life. For the mind, for the country and the people.
The last ten minutes of Huashan's sword-fighting competition in Huashan was also a bit of a drama. We all know that in the book, Guo Jing can resist Dongxie and Beibei with 300 strokes without defeat. These two masters deliberately let water. And here Guo Jing's martial arts actually defeated Ouyang Feng, Ouyang Feng immediately went into a rage, and then like a hang-up, a few tricks in slow motion knocked Guo Jing unconscious, I thought Guo Jing was beaten to death by Ouyang Feng! Then Guo Jing woke up again, pressed the palm print that Wang Chongyang left on the rock with his palm, and said to Ouyang Feng, "I, Guo Jing, will never let you become number one in the world." In the end, Guo Daxia and used a big move to defeat Ouyang Feng. What else can I say about this plot. . .
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is Mr. Jin Yong's famous martial arts work, and it is also the most famous of Jin Yong's works. In fact, "The Condor" is not suitable for making a movie. The last "The Condor" movie was in Hong Kong in 1977. It has been more than 40 years since Fu Sheng and Tian Niu starred in the movie version, and several "Shooting the Condor" movies and TV series since then are TV series versions.Take this new film as an example, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes: Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon" made the audience think that they would focus on the eighteen palms of subduing the dragon, but the whole film turned out to be a simplification of the original plot of "The Condor Heroes". The nearly million-word masterpiece "The Condor" is a movie that can explain the cause and effect clearly, at least score a few movies to tell it, only one movie can't finish the story first, and the director must know this. , but for the sake of time and forcibly splicing the plot, in the end, the audience will feel like eating chicken ribs - it is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it!
It is said that shortly after the "Eighteen Palms of the Condor Shooting: The Legend of the Condor Heroes", there will be another "The Legend of the Condor Heroes Nine Yin White Bone Claws " will also be released. I hope that the "Nine Yin White Bone Claws" I will see in the future can Focus on something, instead of telling the story of "The Condor Heroes" from the beginning.
