"New Dragon Gate" is to martial arts movies, a bit like "Avatar" is to 3D movies.

It is groundbreaking and the pinnacle of fifteen years of standing!

The rivers and lakes are drunk in the fifteenth spring, and the most romantic is "New Dragon Gate"!

Gu Long said that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Where there are rivers and lakes, there are chivalrous.

There are talented people in the rivers and lakes, each leading the way for decades. The earthly fights and kills are like this, and so are the swords and swords on the screen. In the turbulent, real and fantasy world of martial arts movies, Master Xu is an unfailing banner.

Now, fifteen years have passed, "New Dragon Gate Inn" is recognized as a classic in martial arts movies, and it is also the culmination of Master Xu's martial arts movies.

Even "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", which is under the IP of "New Dragon Gate", can be inseparable from "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" in the 2011 Chinese New Year.

At that time, Li Lianjie was old, and the literary drama was even more unbearable to look at, but there were still people who bought this kind of thing!

Although at the final box office, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" lost to "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", in terms of influence, the two are almost neck-and-neck.

After "Dragon Gate", Master Xu rediscovered himself, and the next two works were both big sellers and had a good reputation - "Di Renjie's Divine Dragon King" and "Outwitting Tiger Mountain"!

On the other hand, Zhang Yimou, after "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", directly tore up with his long-time partner Zhang Weipin, and it was not until 2014 that a new work was launched - "Return"

Xu Ke and his "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" are definitely the fuse!

Just like Yu Dong, the producer of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", said, "Although we lost at the box office, in fact, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" confirmed to the outside world that Chinese can also shoot 3D! From this level, I think "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is of great significance!"

……

As of 18 o'clock, "New Dragon Gate" has taken the lead in winning nearly 20 million box office.

If you look at the right time, you can clearly see that the attendance rate of "New Dragon Gate" is close to 60%!

This is already a high attendance, after all, the 15th is a weekday!

With this advantage, the film scheduling rate of "New Dragon Gate" accounted for 43 percent, and the film production of "Thirteen Hairpins", which was preemptive, was only 20 percent.

Obviously, the theater chain is more optimistic about "New Dragon Gate Inn" than the "tear-jerking masterpiece of the year" - "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins"!

It's better to celebrate the New Year, but it's not interesting to have so many epic disasters.

The lessons of "Thai Embarrassment" and "1942" tell us not to try to put on some uncomfortable movies during the Chinese New Year!

……

Most domestic filmmakers are very resistant to "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".

It's not because of the movie, nor is it because of Zhang Yimou, in fact, many people are still looking forward to Zhang Yimou's cooperation with Yan Geling, or what kind of lens he can use to record the disaster of our nation.

"The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" reflects the Nanjing Massacre!

A thing that is worthy of Chinese forever remembering is engraved in our bones.

The Jews have a large number of films that awaken their nation, such as "Hinterer's List" and "The Pianist", but China only has "Nanjing!

The key is Zhang Weipin, his mouth is too annoying!

Also, there was a directional error in the promotion of the movie!

First, the eight major cinema chains were singled out by raising the highest ticket price, and the public cinema chains were angry and threatened to boycott the screening of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", and finally the Film Bureau came forward to reconcile that the average ticket price at the time of release was 41 yuan.

Then, he vigorously entered the Oscar competition for Best Foreign Language Film, and worked hard to manage it in every way, so that the film was full of Hollywood genre stitches.

In the end, he returned home...

Another point, when "Thirteen Hairpins" was still filming, Zhang Weipin made a bold promise to make the box office of the film exceed one billion!

This kind of work with the theme of the Nanjing Massacre only considers what film awards and how many box offices abroad, and fundamentally ignores the feelings of the Chinese people!

There is a saying, "Only the national is the world." Since Zhang Yimou's "Hero", his movies are almost all the same, only the form has no core. Judging from Li An's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and Chen Kaige's "Farewell My Concubine". I think our directors should reflect on it. ’

This is the film critic's evaluation of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".

In short, because of publicity, in the eyes of many people, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is a work that Zhang Yimou used to impact the Oscars!

It did get its wish and was nominated for the Golden Globe Awards, but it was rejected by the Oscars and didn't even get a nomination...

The values instilled in "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" are completely contrary to Western values.

Our director knows prostitutes well, but he doesn't know Christianity, let alone equality, how can such a film be recognized in the West?

The life of a schoolgirl is life, isn't the life of a prostitute life?

Why should a prostitute die for the schoolgirls?

As a result, we were still touched by a mess...

The values of the East collide directly with the universal values of the West...

One of the film's big failures is that the female students of the church climb the church bell tower to commit suicide, thus drawing out the generosity of the merchant girl to die in lieu of death. Director Zhang really didn't pay attention to it at all, are Catholics not allowed to commit suicide? Suicide is tantamount to betraying God!

We don't know this, but don't Westerners understand it?

Do you want to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film for such a mistake?

Also, Zhang Weipin's claim that China and the United States will open at the same time, but the reality is that less than 90 theaters have opened the film, and the final box office is only 310,000 US dollars...

It is far from Zhang Weipin's small goal of 100 million...

The Hollywood Reporter criticized that only the dullest filmmakers in Hollywood would inject sex into a disaster like the Nanjing Massacre, but this has become the core element of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling". The whole film is contrived and unconvincing!

Some foreign film critics also think that the story of "Thirteen Hairpins" is a bit overdone, and they feel that Zhang Yimou may not be telling a true story, and plots such as the suicide of Christians and the swaying posture of prostitutes in cheongsams in December are also hard.

And even if "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" shifts the focus from Qinhuai women to Shujuan and other church students, it is estimated that there will be no drama.

I ran into "A Farewell"!

Asghar Farhadi, one of the directors of the twenty-first century who is closest to a master...

……

In the original time and space, Xu Hui was influenced by many film reviews, and subconsciously felt that "Thirteen Hairpins" was a super invincible bad movie, so he always refused to watch the movie.

accidentally clicked on Zhang Yimou's work on Douban and found that the score of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" had climbed to 8.0 points.

It dawned on him that this was a seriously underrated work!

Director Zhang, I owe you a movie ticket!

So, he went to see "The Great Wall"...

It feels like I'll never love again...
