The movie "Kung Fu" is the pinnacle of his comedy, what's so great about this movie?

To say that "Kung Fu" this movie is not considered to be the peak of the comedy of the star, I think everyone has their own views and opinions, we through the Douban rating to see words, this movie has a rating of 8.6, in the comedy movie of Stephen Chow is not the highest, is not considered to be the lowest, is considered to be one of his more biased movie it, everyone for the evaluation of this movie is still very high, and also I've seen it many times, there are a lot of colorful things in this movie, as for what are the colorful things, there are probably the following points.

Why "Kung Fu" is the peak work of Stephen Chow

In the winter of 2004, "Kung Fu" was officially released. This pinnacle work is exactly this period of Stephen Chow's work, complete with Stephen Chow's work, which is probably the most awesome work of Stephen Chow in the minds of most movie fans. In one of his interviews, Stephen Chow introduced himself by saying, "I'm a comedian", and then added, "Now people call me an action comedian". This proves the importance of the action element in Stephen Chow's movies. As an "action comedian", Stephen Chow is already different from the 1990s' Stephen Chow, who only made nonsensical comedies, and his movies have already formed their own school, with a mature personal style and more and more in-depth content. Chow took on the role of director, screenwriter and star of Kung Fu, bringing with him a host of classic supporting characters in the movie, which beat Ambush on Ten Faces, No Thieves in the World, New Police Story and many foreign movies that year, and got 160 million dollars at the box office in the mainland, the box office champion at that time. It also swept the $17.1 million box office in North America.

The first one is some background music in this movie, I believe that for some background music in this movie, we are also very familiar with it, no matter in some appearance music, or in some dance action soundtrack, it can be said that it is the fusion of classical folk music, classic western music, old Shanghai music and so on, and so far, some of the soundtracks in this movie are still being used by many people in a variety of ways. In some small videos, we can often hear the soundtrack in this movie, the soundtrack can be said to be the movie's great colorful place.

And then one is in the inside of the three great hidden masters, can also be a major highlight of the movie, twelve road Tan leg, Hongjia wire fist, Wu Lang Bagua stick, it can be said that the style of these three martial arts features are played to the fullest, for the three hidden masters of the portrayal of the three, through the operation of the mirror, artwork, soundtracks, special effects, the use of imagery, it can be said that played to the extreme, for the three figures of the Some of the footage, we are also very impressed, right, so needless to say, this is also a major excellence in this movie.

In the kung fu movie, you can see a lot of Bruce Lee's shadow, so there are a lot of places in this movie is the star in tribute to Bruce Lee, which is also a big part of this movie, no matter whether it is in the action or in some of the footage, we are able to see some of Bruce Lee's figure. And the line: Let go of the girl! also became a classic line we know, and Ru Lai Shen Palm, as well as the landlady's lion's roar and chasing after Master Star's footage, it can be said that there are a lot of colorful places in this, it can be said that the whole movie is full of colorful footage, can't even say it enough.

Supporting characters of the small man sentiment

In addition to the details of the movie, the supporting characters of the shape is also one of the reasons for the success of "Kung Fu", you can not even find a second Chinese film all the supporting characters are so outstanding, perhaps this is because of Stephen Chow's small man sentiment, in order to build each character to a successful conclusion. The little man sentiment is not just about telling the story of the little man's comeback, it's also about telling the story of every little man in the movie, and naturally, Stephen Chow has put his heart and soul into carefully crafting these images, which is why the supporting characters in "Kung Fu" will be so brilliant.

Exquisite details of "Kung Fu"

Everyone knows that Stephen Chow treats movies seriously and meticulously, which is called respecting the art of film in a nice way, and not knowing how to change it in a difficult way. This kind of seriousness is, in fact, exactly where the charm of Stephen Chow lies. In "Kung Fu", this kind of sophistication of Stephen Chow is manifested to the fullest, perhaps because this is his own movie, Stephen Chow for the details of the control more careful, so there is also a more intense personal style.

In the opening credits of the movie, there is a point that many people may not have noticed: a butterfly waving its wings in the air. When you think of this butterfly after you've seen the movie, you can feel the details of Stephen Chow's work. In the second half of the movie, when the punk "Star" is opened to the two chakras and becomes a great master, Stephen Chow also gave the image of the chrysalis outside the temple breaking into a butterfly. The butterfly in the opening credits hints at the direction of the movie. The lollipop in the movie is also a classic piece of imagery. It's been 16 years since "Kung Fu" was released, and I'm sure there are still a lot of people who still think of "Kung Fu" when they see the seven-colored round lollipop.

In terms of the time, the movie "Kung Fu" can be said to be the pinnacle of Chinese kung fu movies, and also the pinnacle of Stephen Chow's work, but at that time, the box office was not ideal, and the rating was not high, so that is something that many people can not understand.
