The 1975 Shaw Brothers movie "The Legend of the Wanderer" is also a big production, and the story is about some chapters of "Water Margin". The directors were Zhang Che and Wu Ma, and the actors were also the best people in Shaw Brothers films at that time. He Lili, Jiang David, Chen Guantai, Fan Meisheng, Dillon, Gu Feng, Wang Zhong, Yue Hua and other famous actors. The cast is not insignificant, and the narrative of the story is smooth and self-justifying. However, after many days, looking back, I still feel unsatisfactory. A lot to be desired. Each of them will be stated below.

First of all, let's talk about actors, because actors are the soul of a drama, and the success or failure of a drama, actors account for at least half of the country.

The first to appear was Master Li. To be honest, it's not too good-looking, so I can only say it's decent!Such a look can fascinate the well-informed Song Huizong, I am very skeptical.

The prodigal son Yanqing is one of the most beautiful men on Liangshan, but the image of this actor seems to be very far from the "beautiful man". In all fairness, Jiang David is also a handsome guy, acting in modern dramas, playing hairy boys or something, it's not a problem, but playing a beautiful man in ancient costume is too uncredible.

Nine-pattern dragon Shi Jin is also a young hero in "Water Margin", but Chen Guantai's Shi Jin is too old and lacks the vigor of a teenager. The original book said that Shi Jin is a silver plate face, that is, a round face, and it is very white. Chen Guantai is too inconsistent.

Shi Xiu is also a smart and handsome young man, who is skilled and righteous. Wang Zhong's version of Shi Xiu is too ordinary, the kind that can't be found when you put it in the pile. So it was also a failure.

Dillon is the queen candidate of Wu Song in Hong Kong computers, and Wu Song in "Wu Song" and "Happy Forest" are all Dillon. So this version of Wu Song still has nothing to say, a very handsome Wu Song. But it's a pity, Wu Song's plot is too few and there are not many appearances.

Li Kui's recklessness was interpreted extremely vividly by Fan Meisheng. The image is also right. The force value is off the charts!It's hard not to be remembered by the audience for such a Li Kui.

Yue Hua's Lin Chong has a good image, but there are too few scenes.

The image of Sun Erniang and Zhang Qing is reasonable. It's the right person.

Gu Feng's version of Song Jiang is still very convincing. Gu Feng's appearance can be both good and evil. Playing a positive character is also very commendable.

Fang La and his subordinate generals are also reasonable. It's not that good, at least it's a passing grade.

From the perspective of the actors, they can only be regarded as passing, not as good as they are. On the actors, in fact, they are not dominant.

Let's take a look at the storyline. As far as the storyline is concerned, it is about part of the plot of the crusade against Fang La in "Water Margin". Because it is only 100 minutes long, the story has to be very compact, and it is also very good at the level of a screenwriter. It's not an easy job. Obviously, the screenwriter is more than capable here. He wanted to finish the story in one sitting. This is obviously impossible. So, Li Kui, Shi Xiu, Zhang Shun, Shi Jin, Yan Qing and Sun Erniang and his wife went into Hangzhou City to do internal response, and they had to find a way to cooperate with the large army outside the city. Seven people entered the city, and Li Kui soon revealed his whereabouts, resulting in a very dangerous situation for the seven people. As a result, the seven of them are often one against one hundred, and each person's combat effectiveness is off the charts, which is almost nonsense. What's even more ridiculous is that Yan Qing ran out of the city alone, and dozens of people didn't stop him. There is no more, only the most, and later Song Jiang and others entered Hangzhou City through Yongjinmen. Song Jiang and the others are all northerners and have some combat experience, but the water war is too hanging. Let's see what the original book says, it's infantry, okay!Because when it comes to water warfare, the proportion of the water army leaders in Song Jiang's camp is really too small.

So, it can only be regarded as a mediocre work!Audience friends who like martial arts movies are extremely boring and can watch it.
