The four kings of Hong Kong once represented an era, and they are still an important supporting force for the Hong Kong performing arts circle. Although this title is mainly used in the music industry, they are also very successful in movies. All four of them have won the actor. Although Jacky Cheung is not a golden statue of Golden Horse, he once won the Best Actor Award at the Indian International Film Festival for "Forty of Men" . At the same time, martial arts films are unique to China. If a director has never directed a martial arts film, and an actor has not acted in a martial arts film, it will always feel not so perfect. Today I will chat with you about the four kings and one martial arts movie, Jacky Cheung Has the highest rating and Aaron Kwok has the lowest box office.
1, Andy Lau: "The Legend of the God of War"-Andy Lau has many martial arts films, such as "Sword Laugh", "The Peerless Two Pride", "Ambush on the Ten Sides", etc. The reason for choosing "The Legend of God of War" is his own Sky Screen Company The other one is good in terms of production level and lineup. It's a pity that the film didn't work well at the box office that year, and it only earned more than 12 million box office, which caused Andy Lau's Sky Screen Company to operate difficultly. Directed by Sammo Hung, screenwriter Luo Qirui, Wong Zhan in charge of music, Cheng Xiaodong, Ma Yucheng and Luo Lixian in charge of action special effects, plus Andy Lau, Anita Mui, Maggie Cheung, Wang Xiao, Zhong Zhentao and other lineups, it is a pity that they did not sell well.
In fact, the biggest problem with this film is that it lacks a little pride, and the love of children is a bit more exaggerated. Although it has joined the battle for the throne in the temple, it is not enough. To say that the biggest feature is Andy Lau's good friend "Hai Wei", that is, the dolphin. In the end, it was he who saved Andy Lau and dazzled Wang Xiao with his tail fan.
2, Jacky Cheung: "The Swordsman"-Jacky Cheung's martial arts films have many classics, such as "Huang Feihong: Rising Clouds", "Nerve Knives and Flying Cats", "Evil and West Poison", the reason for choosing "Swordsman" One is outstanding performance and has won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, and the other is of great significance and far-reaching, and is known as the pioneering work of the new martial arts film. Back then, Zhang Che's "One Armed Sword" and Hu Jinquan's "The Drunk Man" were hailed as the new martial arts. After many years, "Swordsman" followed their titles.
Speaking of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", it has a long life. There are six directors successively, Hu Jinquan, Tsui Hark, Cheng Xiaodong, Li Huimin, Jin Yanghua and Xu Anhua. Then the actors also changed. Ye Qian's text is Ren Yingying and Lin Zhennan. This is Yue Hua. Although Tsui Hark and Hu Jinquan disagree, we can still see that many places are full of Hu Jinquan’s style. Although Xu Guanjie’s Linghu Chong was judged by Jin Yong to be a bit older, he also praised him for performing that kind of wild and unrestrained performance, and he can sing. "A Laughter in the Sea" also adds a lot of points.
Jacky Cheung’s Ouyang-quan pretends to be Lin Pingzhi, as an undercover agent mixed with the Huashan School, and has a very accurate grasp of the character's personality. At the same time, Yuan Jieying’s Lan Fenghuang, Liu Zhaoming’s Yue Buqun, Liu Xun’s Gu Gong, Lin Zhengying’s Qu Yang and Wu Ma’s Liu Zhengfeng performed very well, but it’s a pity that Wu Ma and Lin Zhengying are now going to another world to ensemble "A Laugh in the Sea". .
3, Liming: "Flying Fox Side Story"-Liming's martial arts movies are relatively few, "Seven Swords" will not be mentioned, or to talk about another Jin Yong martial arts movie "Flying Fox Side Story", directed by Pan Wenjie, "Lie Hao" " "New Shanghai on the Beach" are all written by him, and then the screenwriters are McDonald, Hsiao Ruoyuan and Li Yingjie. The lineup includes Zhang Min and Li Jiaxin two goddesses, and the soundtrack has the master Hu Weili to help out. In fact, when watching this film, don't think about the original work. Watching it as an ordinary martial arts movie will have unexpected effects. Otherwise, after watching it, you will find that Hu Fei has become Wei Xiaobao.
The "scale" of the film's lines is relatively large, and it sounds more comfortable. The most exciting section should be the temple sucking fingers, but Hu Fei's routine is full. Zhang Min is familiar with martial arts movies. After all, he has interpreted the roles of Ren Yingying and Zhao Min. Then Li Jiaxin interpreted a clever and cute Cheng Lingsu, which is very cute.
4. Aaron Kwok: "The Barefoot Boy"-Aaron Kwok has many martial arts films, such as "The Wind and Cloud Dominates the World", "Lun Wenxian Liu Xiankai", "Laughing Hero Chu Liuxiang", "Taoist Goes Down", etc., the reason for choosing "Barefoot" "Boy", one is directed by Johnnie To, the other is a bit controversial. This film has been rumored to have a box office of only 1010 Hong Kong dollars before. In fact, the real box office is more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars, but even if it is more than 3 million, it is still the lowest one compared to the previous ones.
first directed by Du Qifeng, and then written by You Naihai, Liu JiaGood action design, Hu Weili is responsible for the music. There are also big names like Ti Lung and Maggie Cheung on the lineup, as well as two old drama players Qin Pei and Zeng Jiang. Then the story actually borrows from Zhang Che’s "Hong Quan Kid". The method of death is also very Zhang Che. Such a strong production team, wonderful story, good rhythm and camera grasp, a classic martial arts finally appeared dismal, it can only be said that the birth is not in time, in fact, it is not the worst. , Think about "One Sword Allure" has only gained more than 1 million box office, and you can be relieved. Although Aaron Kwok in the film is still a little immature, he is very agile, and it is a match for Fu Sheng from "Hong Quan Boy" back then.
Today’s four kings, Andy Lau and Aaron Kwok focus on movies. Jacky Cheung has been holding concerts. When the "fugitive nemesis" is happier, he forgets that "Equator 2" has not been filmed yet. As for Liming, now it is back to the field of TV dramas. Previously played the role of Tang Wang in "Jiang Ye". By the way, have you watched all the above 4 martial arts movies?
