Unexpectedly! Shi Xiaolong imitated Xie Miao and made this Hong Kong-style martial arts film, which won the box office championship after it was launched

At present, there are not many people who can support the three major types of domestic martial arts, kung fu, and action films.

Xie Miao and Shi Xiaolong are among the few people.

I have to say that the fates of the two kung fu child stars seem to be extremely similar.

Both of them became famous at a young age with kung fu films, and later chose to stop filming to study.

Later, after both of them came back, they both switched to the Internet University.

With "No One in My Eyes", Semyon played a knife catcher and created a world of his own.

And Shi Xiaolong obviously has to go through Semyon's path, so this movie came into being.

"The Knife Catcher", directed by the director of the "Northeast Police Story" series, and the action director of the two "No One in Sight" - Qin Pengfei.

Obviously, Shi Xiaolong wanted to replicate Semyon's success.

It's just that the current mode of martial arts films has basically been routined, and it is difficult to shoot new ideas.

Moreover, filming according to the mode of "No One in My Eyes" is not realistic in itself, and it is easy for the audience to complain about plagiarism.

Therefore, Shi Xiaolong took a different path this time and created a unique martial arts world and a knife catcher universe.

The background of the story is still set in the Tang Dynasty.

"Jackal" Pei Xing (played by Shi Xiaolong) is a knife catcher known for "not being able to die".

In this era of war and chaos, "jackal" Pei Xing was originally a cold-blooded and numb outlaw who exchanged his life for money.

Until one day, he accidentally saved a woman, and his life changed completely.

This woman's child is the heir to the Prime Minister's House.

Soon, Pei Xing was chased and killed by the government and his peers, and he instantly became the target of the entire rivers and lakes.

So, his former friend in the army gave Pei Xing two choices.

Either help him find the woman's child, or help him revoke the hunt order;

Either he has to wait for death, and everyone in the whole world will regard him as a thorn in his side.

After witnessing the people who adhered to justice being wiped out by power, the chivalry in Pei Xing's heart was gradually awakened, and he decided to retaliate.

In order to save the child, he decided to make enemies of the knife catchers in the entire martial arts and embarked on a path of justice.

As a martial arts film, "The Knife Catcher", like "No One in My Eyes", has the same heritage of martial arts films - chivalry and martial arts.

First of all, look at "Xia".

To the big one, the righteousness of chivalry is for the country and the people.

To the smallest, when the road is uneven, draw a knife to help.

In the film, Pei Xing, the knife catcher, can maintain chivalry in troubled times.

In order to keep the bottom line of justice, he dared to show his sword to the powerful, regardless of life and death.

It can be seen that Pei Xing is not selfless, nor is he a so-called savior.

It's just that the eternal "chivalry" in the bones can't be hidden.

Secondly, look at "Wu".

The internal strength, fists and feet, weapons and other elements of traditional martial arts are all shown in the film, and the overall style focuses on realism and integrates with the scene.

In movies, scenes like the fight in the desert are not uncommon in Hong Kong-style martial arts films.

The sound of the wind in the desert instantly brought the sense of tension and slaughter to the extreme.

There is not a single superfluous line, and the movements are clean and neat as the wind and sand blow.

It has both the coolness of modern action movies and the beauty of classical martial arts.

And the big battle at the end of the film, there were back and forth in the early stage, and Pei Xing fought with his will in the later stage.

In terms of creating the atmosphere, this scene is biased towards a freehand environment.

The overall style is relatively close to Gu Long's martial arts, simple, sharp, smooth, and finally broke the flame knife, which perfectly interprets the aesthetics of oriental martial arts.

In the past, martial arts films would also focus on depicting the love of children in the rivers and lakes.

In "The Knife Catcher", the emotional drama is very restrained.

However, the atmosphere is just right, making people realize the preciousness of love in troubled times.

In general, the performance of "The Knife Catcher" in all aspects may become a dark horse for this year's martial arts films.

In fact, whether it is a cinema blockbuster or an Internet university, the essence of martial arts films is martial arts and chivalry.

Only by doing these two points can we straighten our waists and pass on martial arts all the time.

In my opinion, the future still depends on Xie Miao and Shi Xiaolong.
