I finally had time to watch the previously popular "Fengshen Part 1: Chao Song Fengyun", the key is free, and it was really filmed from a different perspective, and the feelings given to the audience were also different. Today, I'm going to talk about my opinion.
First of all, the big protagonist Yin Shou is starring Fei Xiang, with a tall and mighty figure and a singing opera, this Chinese-American mixed race presents a different king to the public: brave and good at fighting, scheming and ambitious, good at demagoguery, cold-blooded and cruel, but not as absurd and unscrupulous as the previous versions of the king.
In the Battle of Jizhou City at the beginning of the movie, he led the four protons of the four great princes to crusade against Su Hu together. Su Hu's proton Su Xiaoquan shouted at the city gate, rows of arrows poked in front of him, and then looked at Su Hu, who was expressionless, such a proton was an abandoned son, but Yin Shou said the words of the bravest son, and the crowd was excited. Under his wise and courageous leadership, a great victory was fought. In the early stage of the movie, an image of being brave and good at fighting, making good use of talents, and being good at demagoguery was created. Then, with the help of Daji, Yin Shou successfully killed his brother and killed his father and eliminated those who opposed him, he was always able to act calmly, and a cold-blooded and brutal, scheming and ambitious king appeared in front of the public.
Then there is Daji, this time Daji can be said to have changed the most, because she is not the kind of fox demon that charmed Yin Shou in all previous versions, but a fox demon who repaid her kindness. She is still a fox demon who has cultivated for thousands of years, but she was sealed in the Xuanyuan Tomb by the ancestors of Chengtang, and only the blood of the descendants of Chengtang can break the seal. It was Yin Shou who rescued her, and she had only one purpose, that is, to repay the favor and help Yin Shou accomplish what he wanted to do. Although this version of Daji's actor is controversial, he thinks that the acting is very good, and he performs the feeling of a little fox alive: when he first enters Su Daji's body, he crawls on all fours, and he has almost no words, he is careful when he licks Yin Shou's blood, and immediately escapes after licking, as long as a third person appears, she immediately hides behind Yin Shou and so on, and vividly performs the feeling of a little fox.
Ji Chang, played by Li Xuejian, has the temperament of being old, weak, sick and disabled, and his hoarse voice reflects the strength of his spirit and the sadness of publicly admitting rumors for his son. There is a scene that feels very warm: the ugly Lei Zhenzi hugged the dying Ji Chang after forcing the soldiers to retire, and he smiled when he saw him wake up. This scene is very heartwarming and touching: no matter how ugly and scary it looks, the monster is also a child in front of his loved ones.
Shen Gongbao also played it very well, especially his gestures every time he did it, it was really like that.
Jiang Ziya played by Huang Bo may think that he is the least outstanding, I don't know if the director wants to show his witty side or Huang Bo has participated in more entertainment shows with his own characteristics of a comedy star, maybe this one has not really reflected his role, and I look forward to his performance in the next two parts.
Overall, this Fengshen List is filmed magnificently, a bit like the Lord of the Rings, which shows that the director has spent a lot of effort and looks forward to the wonderful display of the next two parts.
