Frankly speaking, the plot rhythm of "Zhao Zilong 2" is a bit scattered, and there is no foreshadowing of "Dingjun Mountain" before, which is not friendly to many fans who don't know much about the Three Kingdoms...

In order, it should be "Zhao Zilong", "Red Cliff→ "Red Cliff→ "Zhang Yide Breaks Zhang He→", "Dingjun Mountain", → "Zhao Zilong 2"...

Isn't it unpleasant for both sides!

And "Red Cliff" is impossible to shoot...

Jiahe and Shen Xudong simply omitted the middle few chops...

Well, in fact, with the mentality of 'the Three Kingdoms series can not be done, but "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" must die', I directly rectified "Zhao Zilong 2"...

I didn't think about it so much at the time...

Otherwise, he would not have filmed "Cao Cao"

Of course, there was certainly nothing wrong with the production of the whole movie!

Golden Harvest raised the strength of the whole company to bet on the work of self-esteem, and it will definitely not be bad.

After half a year of post-production, the tone, soundtrack, and special effects are all top-notch.

Guaranteed to be enjoyable for the general audience...

Douban scored 7.6 points, Time.com scored 7.7 points, and most of them were praised in terms of word-of-mouth.

The reason why it didn't reach 8 points is mainly because there are no surprises!

Shen Xudong didn't want to deconstruct "Three Kingdoms" from the beginning, which also led to many viewers who are familiar with "Three Kingdoms", watching things and repeating them again, it is really not too interesting.

The reason why it is given a score of 7.6 is that the main cold weapon battle is very refreshing, and there are no major loopholes in the plot...

And Zhao Zilong is indeed loyal and brave!

And then..."Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor"...

This movie is not only Zhao Yun is wrong, but by the way, Zhuge Liang was pulled down from the altar - eating noodles, divination, plus not talking about morality!

The so-called last two tips were actually sold to Zhao Yun...

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Han has two perfect characters: Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun: Handsome and able to fight, not arrogant or impatient, loyal and reliable, able to be a bodyguard and command troops, known as a winning general, it is easy for the audience not to buy it if it is so sad.

Zhuge Liang is clever, wise and almost demonic, and he is also a handsome guy: eight feet long, with a face like a crown of jade, wearing a scarf on his head, wearing a crane, fluttering like a fairy;

Zhuge Liang in "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" found Pu Cunxi to act...

Let's not talk about what it looks like, the appearance is too rough, the enemy army is attacking with 10,000, Zhuge military division is like a hungry ghost, casually counting the number of soldiers according to the stove, which is secretly in line with the method of reducing the stove of Pang Sun's wit, and echoes Zhuge Si's retreat from Qishan, which is really very talented.

The military advisor calculated, said that thunder and lightning were combined, woohoo, Zhao Yun made his debut battle, and became Oda Nobunaga Barrel Sayama Assault Imagawa Yoshimoto. Array, the green dragon on the left, the white tiger on the right, twenty people assault the middle...

Big brother, 20 people fight a thousand?

Awesome!

In the end, Zhuge Junshi turned his face and didn't recognize people, and used General Zilong as bait...

Where's the magic plan?

Well, it pulled down both altar figures at once!

Bad reviews can be imagined...

In comparison, "Zhao Zilong 2" is simply not too good-looking...

……

Actually, Western movies, no, I should talk about the movie genre, and I can't say what the specific genre is, but probably the plot is certain: an old man has won countless honors in his life, facing challenges in old age or the new era, facing himself, is actually a problem that everyone has to face, and it is also the personal professional ethics and ethics emphasized in the sense of Western Protestantism.

The output of "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" is this tone, and the core of the whole play is the map: no matter how far you go, you will eventually return to the original point, that is, "fate".

Therefore, in the battle of Fengming Mountain, Zhao Zilong let Cao Shuang go!

- Maybe the moment he arrived at Fengming Mountain, Zhao Zilong already knew his ending.

From this tonality, "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" is not bad!

The question is whether you are called "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor", or are you in the same PK as "Zhao Zilong 2"...

The story about Andy Lau's refusal to accept "Zhao Zilong 2" has long been rumored.

Almost all the audience entered the cinema with the mentality of watching "Zhao Zilong"...

Then, a feast of magic transformation was presented.

The magic change is completely changed, like "Shadow", all the names are changed, and the reputation is very good. But you are reluctant to give up the IP of the Three Kingdoms and Zhao Yun, then I'm sorry, I can only return to the worldview and framework of the Three Kingdoms and deduct points...

On the first day of the box office, there is not much difference between the two sides, "Zhao Zilong 2" is 12 million, "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor" is 10.8 million...

The next day was different, after a day of swiping the screen, the audience had an intuitive understanding of the two movies.

The company must have bought the draft, and "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" also bought, all kinds of trampling on Nie Yuan, saying that his Zhao Yun has no sense of vicissitudes, is not handsome enough, etc...

The effect, look at the box office comparison:

On Friday, April 4th, "Zhao Zilong 2" was 17 million, and "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" was 10.2 million...

At the end of the first four days, "Zhao Zilong 2" had a box office of 72.5 million, and "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor" was 40.7 million......

Almost double the kill!

At the Hong Kong box office, "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" was 6.8 million Hong Kong dollars in the first week, and "Zhao Zilong 2" had 7.7 million Hong Kong dollars...

Well, the Hong Kong audience doesn't accept this magic change either...

That's it, when Andy Lau was promoting, he faced the audience's 'flying saucer hat' questioning: "It's a bit like a flying saucer in "Yangtze River No. 7"..."

Andy Lau said: "I hope you don't talk about it as worthless. ”

Director Li Rengang said that all the shapes of Zhao Zilong are based on ancient murals, "We have carefully researched. ”

Ancient frescoes?

What about the murals of the Three Kingdoms period?

Where are the specific murals? Do the armies of the three countries generally wear helmets like this?

"I don't think the movie is a documentary, and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is not a real historical material, so there is no need to compare the real events of Zhao Yun. Indeed, the movie is about Zhao Zilong, and it is indeed different from the historical ending, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms itself is not history, nor is it the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is also one! The Three Kingdoms, how many things in ancient and modern times, are all being talked about with laughter..."

"How many of the Three Kingdoms and Later Han Books have you really read? Don't learn history from movies! ”

Li Rengang said very... Right!

The question is... The audience doesn't accept it.

This is going to talk about the word public impression, movies must be popular culture, public impression is irreversible, if you want to challenge, want to overturn the case for a certain historical figure, you can go to make a niche Cult film...

"Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor", a cost of 35 million US dollars, starring Andy Lau, has been aiming at an international production in Asia from the beginning of the project!

And then you changed the Three Kingdoms...

The most speechless thing is that the art style is obviously Japanese benzene style, but no Japanese film company is willing to buy it...

No, there are still companies that want to buy it, but the price is only $2 million at most.

Wu Kebo of Orange Sky felt that this was an opportunity to have something to do with Andy Lau, but his money was used to invest in "Red Cliff".

The current situation is like this, "Zhao Zilong 2" hangs "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor" in all directions, and the latter may be difficult to recover the cost...

The only thing to be thankful for is that the Korean box office of "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" is not bad - 250,000 moviegoers in the first weekend, which is not much different from "Zhao Zilong 2", which is 270,000 moviegoers...
