Presumably many of my friends have seen this movie version of Tianlong Ba Bu when they were students. Its almost magical laser fighting scenes and various crossing lines have left a deep impression on people. Like the vast majority of Jin Yong's martial arts films of the year, "Tianshan Tongmao" has basically nothing to do with the original book except for the name and martial arts taken from "Tianlong Babu". Although director Qian Yongqiang invited Gong Li , Brigitte Lin and Zhang Min , three smash hit female stars, the film still failed miserably when it was released in 1994, only getting a box office of 6.53 million Hong Kong dollars. The two sequel films originally planned to feature Duan Yu and Qiao Feng were also cancelled. Its overly simplistic and rude plot and unpopular lines had absolutely no advantage in the Hong Kong film market with serious involution at that time. But from today's point of view, the film is still quite entertaining. Since the title of
is called "Tianshan Tongmao", and Gonghuang and Dongfang Invincible are invited, it is destined to be a "big heroine" movie. Facts have also proved that in front of two actresses with strong aura, let alone Lin Wenlong , a fledgling TVB niche, even Zhang Min is weaker by three points. That year, Gong Li was 29 years old, and Lin Qingxia was 40 years old. The two of them framed together, and they were still competing for beauty, and neither one lost half a point.
It's hard to imagine that these are two faces with an age difference of 11 years , has already had the idea of breathing. But she has always been eager to cooperate with Gong Li. Originally, , Tsui Hark, and planned to invite the two to play , Bai Yunfei, and Lan Xiaodie, respectively, in "New Crane Needle", but they all missed it due to schedule reasons. "Have a chance.
That year Gong Li received the script of "Green Snake" at the same time, but rejected the latter in order to cooperate with Brigitte Lin. Now I don't know whether it is regret or luck. In short, the rivalry of the two actresses has become the biggest highlight in "Tianshan Tongmao". And screenwriter Zhang Tan seems unwilling to waste this rare opportunity, boldly adding lily elements in this commercial film: Wu Xingyun and Li Canghai Ji Qing, even if it is put into the current Chinese martial arts movies It is so avant-garde that when the film was released in the mainland, the dubbing in Mandarin was specially modified, and some of the narrations sounded particularly awkward.
Strictly speaking, the role of Wu Xingyun is a waste of Gong Li's academic acting skills. She herself is used to acting in serious movies. She participated in highly entertaining Hong Kong movies in the early days, and she was obviously unaccustomed to the weather. " Tang Bohu Dianqiuxiang " became a performance experience that she regretted many years later. Fortunately, although Wu Xingyun's role is thin, he The image is domineering and dignified, unsmiling, more suitable for Gong Li at that time.
In contrast, Brigitte Lin's Li Qiushui has a much richer expression. Although the role is of a very high status, he will explode if he disagrees. Now it seems quite cute. Especially the scene of pretending to be Li Canghai and deceiving Xuzhu 's Beiming magic became the biggest laughing point of the whole drama.
The 40-year-old Brigitte Lin is still beautiful and domineering.
Zhang Min plays A Zi who is the funny person in the whole play. Although her mind turns extremely fast, she sometimes makes a fool of herself and doesn't make a fool of herself. As for Lin Wenlong, who played the role of Xuzhu, although it may be a bit excessive, he really has no memory points under the pressure of the three actresses' aura and scenes. Wu Yazi, who has never shown his face in the whole film, may be the reason for the crew to save money, and simply let Shiraishi Qian , who plays Nobita, replace him. The thought of Lin Qingxia's unwavering affection towards this somewhat wretched face still makes people somewhat disillusioned.
By the way, after Li Qiushui occupied the vulture palace , he had hallucinations because he had nothing to eat and was hungry. The episode " only me " in his memory was sung by a generation of queen Faye Wong , which shows that the film 's face.
In terms of setting, "Tianshan Tongmao" has the usual shortcomings of Hong Kong films: simple and simple. There are obvious traces of studio shooting in many scenes, but the props group of the film makes effective use of special effects smokeWith the lighting, it creates a feeling of misty Tianshan Mountains in the studio. Wu Xingyun and Li Qiushui's "playing in the sky" really has the style of a fight between gods and gods. Although the biubiubiu's poor sound effects of the light waves and the bombardment can't help but make people play Thunder fighters or "Star Wars", the actors at that time felt that they were really flying even if they were hanging Weiya. It's not like a few weights are hung up and dangling in the air now.
This show is really a brilliant martial arts design, but Ding Chunqiu vs Su Xinghe . It not only takes advantage of the inherent action advantages of Hong Kong martial arts films, but also properly incorporates some special effects. Even today, nearly 30 years later, it is a refreshing design. In addition to
, there are many scenes in the film that pay tribute to the classic Japanese comic "Dragon Ball". For example, the posture of the five disciples of the Constellation School when they greeted Ding Chunqiu came from the Ginyu Special Forces in the Frieza chapter of "Dragon Ball". Almost played out the bridges in Dragon Ball, which shows the absorption and utilization of various popular elements by Hong Kong movies in the golden age.
