Sean's blog also published a film review of the movie "Heroic Epic".

"People say that the times create heroes, and under a specific environment, there will always be a large number of outstanding characters, including fierce and evil traitors, unscrupulous heroes, and righteous heroes, who are either left behind for thousands of years or passed down through the ages, and there will always be a thick ink painting left on the history books."

"But I'm not talking about the big heroes that everyone praises. What is a hero? Do you have to save thousands of people and save the country from fire and water to be called a hero? I don't think so. ”

"A mother who bursts out with amazing strength to protect her child in a moment of crisis, but she is injured or dies, isn't she a hero to her child? She doesn't need to be a hero for all people, for her children, she is the most majestic and reliable hero in the world. ”

"What impressed me the most in this film was not the General Qi who fought wits and courage with the murderer, nor the Dr. Paul who sacrificed his life to kill for the sake of the overall situation, but the figure that still comes to mind is the thin and old William."

At the beginning, he said a detail, in order to allow the group to successfully win the development land, Lord Henry approved his subordinates to find someone to deal with Old Mary who refused to move out of the ancestral house, and this matter happened to be heard by Old William. He was entangled in his heart, and after a long time of embarrassment, he decided to help old Mary, who had a life grace for him when he was a child, in a way that did not cause trouble. From this little thing, it can be seen that old William is a person who sweeps the snow in front of the door, and he is not a last resort. He doesn't do anything that is dangerous to himself. ”

But when old Mary was killed by the murderers, when old William knew that the murderers were going to take some children to use as explosive packs, and to blow up the field hospital. William Sr's approach was really beyond my expectations. I originally thought, according to the character of old William. He must have pretended not to hear about it, and then continued to be a turtle with a shrunken head, and because the murderer's murder was successful, he would humbly beg the murderer to spare his life in order to save his life. ”

"When he told the murderer that he was going to take care of Old Mary's garden, I was also like those murderers thought, the garden must be boring, and when I saw the murderer, I almost dug the garden into the ground and didn't find anything else unusual, I also wondered in my heart, could it be that the director arranged this kind of plot in order to make up 120 minutes? I then denied my own conjecture. Because from the beginning. The plot is very tight, and I don't think the director is doing useless work. ”

Later, from General Qi, they saw the SOS distress signal in the garden in the satellite search, and they understood the intention of old William to take care of the garden, if General Qi did not find the old William's distress signal in the end, and then did not catch the group of murderers? Did old William do useless work? From my personal point of view, William Sr. also held me at least these things at that time, and I was worthy of my conscience. At least William Sr. is his own hero. ”

"Not to mention, the murderer's hands and feet in order to make old William 'die worthwhile', and old William in order not to affect others. I'd rather run outside and die alone than have a compression bomb explode in a field hospital or endanger the lives of others. ”

"There are a lot of people like William Sr. around us or in real life, and they have good intentions. Under the premise of ability, they will pity the weak and pity the poor, but when the price of pity and poverty is their safety, they will become more indifferent than anyone else. He can watch the life and death of others with a cold eye, and finally shed a few tears emotionally. And in some special circumstances. Such people can become more majestic and taller than anyone else, and their behavior before and after will be completely different. They will do things that in the eyes of others, 'why do you have to work so hard, the world is not waiting for you to save it, the sky is falling and there are tall people on top of it, just go to the police if you have something', they sacrifice their actions for others not to get praise from others, but what they think and want them to do it, they don't go against their hearts, so they do it willingly. ”

"William Sr. is one such person. He was cowardly and humble before, this is the mentality of a small citizen, and no one will not care about their own life; He was then heroic, witty, self-sacrificing, and I think that whatever his reasons for doing so, he deserves our respect and gratitude, because there are not many people who can do this if it were us. ”

"A hero who has great contributions to the country and righteousness to the people is certainly worthy of everyone's love, but behind the success of a hero, he is not the only one who works, and there is no superman in the world after all. When the generals stand at the top and accept the admiration of the people, who will set their eyes on those white bones? Defending the country and the country, where are not those small soldiers who contribute the most? ”

"After watching this film, I thought we need to slowly move our gaze from the top to the bottom. Look at the clean streets, remove the contempt for sanitation workers in my heart, they always get up before dawn to work, so that we have a clean and beautiful city; Look at the farmers who have their backs to the loess and face the sky, it's always the waste that they let us eat and learn not to cherish"

"The plot of this film is compact, the small high/tide is continuous, the production is exquisite, the picture is realistic, not only the starring role, but also the dragon is very attentive to the performance, a 120-minute scene, until the screen is darkened, I don't play, the scenes in it can always make people feel the same way. The combination of empty and long shots, and the use of montage is even more handy, so that people can only follow the director's footsteps to explore the unknown, such shooting techniques I can't imagine that this is a new director's shooting. I'm happy, I'm glad that there's a new star rising in this circle, and as long as she doesn't fall, I think we can keep watching her films to see 90 years old. ”

As a freelance film critic, Sean has never been pressured or bought by others, and because of his excellent professional knowledge, he has many fans. Although Sean only lightly praised the director at the end of the end, this has already shown that Sean is optimistic about the director, because the last sentence is simply a confession of love and praise, and because of this, many people who didn't plan to go to the movie also went to the theater with friends or family.
