The old movie "Heroes from Ancient Times" in 1983, I just took it out and watched it again. Very handsome and enjoyable. Although children's kung fu dramas are not favored, I still think this is a good martial arts film. In the 80s, when martial arts dramas and kung fu dramas were very popular, it was not easy for the show to occupy a place. It can also be seen how popular this drama was back then.
In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the "Heaven and Earth Society" in western Sichuan was organized against the Qing court, and the "Heaven and Earth Society" was betrayed by traitors, and the chief helmsman was killed. The imperial court sent Sima Li and other five masters to encircle and suppress the "Heaven and Earth Society". In order to rescue Wang Ermao, the son of the chief helmsman, the other brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society acted separately.
The other children all left by boat, but Wang Ermao, Jiang Xiao, the big leopard, the little leopard, and the mother-in-law were trapped in the city. The rich young master "little husband" also joined the ranks of the children in order to escape from his "eldest daughter-in-law". A group of children, led by their mother-in-law, came to Lijiazhai, but they had already been wiped out. Sima Li and the other five caught Jiang Zi and threatened his mother-in-law to hand over Wang Ermao. In a hurry, the little husband who didn't know martial arts slipped over and untied Jiang Zi's rope. At this time, Tie Biao arrived and fought with several masters. Tie Biao was finally defeated and took the opportunity to escape. Sima Li and others chased after her mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law, who was already injured, was killed.
Several of the children fled to the Lama Living Buddha, who sent a yak formation to drive Sima Li away.
The eldest daughter-in-law chased after her younger husband and met Tie Biao, who suspected that Tie Biao was a traitor, and the two fought.
The children crossed the snow-capped mountains and came to Hujiazhai, where Sima Li and others had already laid an ambush. Just waiting for them to arrive. The five masters play against the children, and the children are naturally not opponents. Except for the young husband who was rescued by his wife, the rest of the children were taken away.
The children were caught, and the five masters drank excitedly. At this time, the eldest daughter-in-law arrived with her friends from the rivers and lakes, and Tie Biao arrived with the brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society and rescued the children. All five masters were killed. Everyone's misunderstanding of Tie Biao has also been cleared.
Some people say utopia, mainly how can children be the opponents of Ouchi masters?But how is it possible that the children are able to run away every time they fight?Putting these aside, from today's point of view, the movie is still very elegant. Because, in the end, the children were still arrested. Moreover, Lijiazhai and Hujiazhai were all killed under the ransacking of the Qing soldiers. These are all in line with reality. In the end, the five masters were killed, mainly because the other party had too many people, which is also reasonable.
In addition, the movies are all shot in real life, Jiuzhaigou Waterfall, Yak Array, City Tower, River View, Mountains, Rivers and Plants, all of which are very good-looking. It can be seen as a landscape film.
The actors are also carefully selected, and each role is just right. Whether it is the boat boss, or the rich gentry, or the Jiang child, or the little husband, they are all full of heroism. The other martial arts actors are also from professional classes, big leopards, little leopards, Tie Biao, Sima Li, eldest daughter-in-law, and mother-in-law, all of whom came out of the martial arts team. Although these actors did not become popular in the end, they all shined in their posts and contributed to the motherland, which is commendable.
I remember when I watched this movie, it was still a child. Looking at the movie again, I found that the scene of that year is still vivid. It's still that good!It's still full of so many touches!
