If we take a closer look at "Climbers", did the group of climbers at that time and even the generations of Chinese at that time also have such a "contextual limitation"? Under the circumstances at the time, they truly believed in "ism" and were truly willing to sacrifice themselves for what they believed in. And this constitutes a lot of "reasonableness" in this historical event.
made people exclaimed that "the main theme can also be a big hit", including Johnnie To’s "Drug War", which successfully grafted the style of Hong Kong-style gangster films with the characteristics of mainland public security, setting a precedent for street battles in mainland cities, leaving a piece masterpiece. Then, "Wolf Warrior 2" was only available, and don't forget that Wu Jing also came out after many years of fighting from the mainland. The main theme blockbuster that is popular and popular must solve the balance between "individual hero stories and collectivist discourse." Blindly publicize the dedication and sacrifice of individuals to the collective, and even create the "perfect person" of Gao Daquan for this purpose.
tends to appear fake, big, and empty. Even if you tell everyone that this is a real thing, everyone will feel ungrounded and too far away from yourself. In the final analysis, this is an era that respects individual values and advocates individual struggle. Then there is an era in which the collective can demand unlimited sacrifices for individuals. Therefore, when Tsui Hark filmed "Take the Tiger Mountain Out of Wisdom" into a legend of Yang Zirong, and a group of heroes in "Operation Mekong" and "Operation Red Sea" focusing on the action, everyone would find it extremely useful, without too many slogans and Preaching, some are "people" of flesh and blood.
Although "Operation Red Sea" is presented as a team, it also focuses on designing each team member to have a unique personality. Each person's emotions and actions support the advancement of the plot, and it is still to shape individual group portraits in grand events. Refusing to make gods and preaching, filming "people" stories for others to see, and inspiring the empathy of the audience is the iron rule that all commercial blockbusters are sold, and it is also the reason why the main theme blockbusters have been so popular in recent years.
However, this main line is pushed forward by the awkward emotions, the messy narrative line after the characters increase, some absurd plots, sudden sensationalism and even low-level mistakes that are not worthy of mouth are ruined. Let people compare the original story. Not only sigh, you might as well photograph the history itself honestly! The drama is not enough to get together, but the two generations and two pairs of love stories are not wonderful enough. Fang Wuzhou and Xu Ying's relationship line is too hypocritical; Li Guoliang and the girl, as Zhang Yi said, what kind of love is in this moment!
is still full of bloody bridges, breaking into the dormitory, two people falling out of the ice hole, and doing artificial respiration. The plot of these two people is minute by minute. However, this is the normal level of Li Rengang. I have seen his films "Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" and "The Hero of the Heavenly General". The emotional lines have always been abrupt, the characters are facialized, and the plot is not logically advanced. In short, the literary and drama are in a mess. It's not surprising that it's like this.
has to divide the pot, and it must be said that the director’s northward trip brought the mainland theme commercial film to a big sales. It has brought glory and opened up the thinking of mainland filmmakers at once, but it is almost over, and this theme is still the same as before. Stuck in the thinking mode of "commercial film director shooting the main theme", I somehow came to Li Rengang, alas. "Climbers" also wanted to take such a path, looking back at that period of history from an individual perspective, and creating a group of heroes with flesh and blood and obvious advantages and disadvantages. However, the literary and drama of this drama is too bad.
