How to evaluate Jet Li's early film Hero of Jason Wu?
Hero of Jason Wu is a rare action film with the mood at that time. It is Jet Li's ambitious work after organizing Zheng Dong's film, trying to keep up with Tsui Hark's Huang Feihong and become a martial arts philosopher. Although it is still slightly inferior in the end, the realistic action style, calm and atmospheric character, and clues of light and shadow are unforgettable. Zhen Chen, played by Jet Li, has both wisdom and courage, and does not reject modern culture to convince people by reasoning. This character is extremely rare in China's action film school. Jason Wu has many subjects, but rarely can he shoot such heroism.

This film is a remake of the classic Jingwumen by a generation of action idol Bruce Lee. The chief producer-Han Sanping, director Chen Jiashang and action director Yuan Heping-brought together powerful action stars such as Siu-ho Chin, Yasuaki Kurata and Zhou Bili, with Qin Pei and Ada Choi as supporting actors. Sun Yixian, a Japanese actor who plays Photon, is the sister of Japanese popular star Miho Nakayama (although this sister is cute, it's a pity that she has never become popular). As can be seen from the lineup, its ambition can be seen. This is also an attempt to get rid of the control of light and shade in the Hong Kong film circle after Jet Li established the Orient. Please note that the name of the producer and producer of this film is Li Yangzhong, which was Jet Li's name before he went to Beijing Shichahai Martial Arts School and his real name. In other words, he is the producer, producer and star of this film, and even he has invested a lot in creation. There is also a tidbit, that is, it is impossible to determine the action style after shooting, which makes your eighth master Yuan very angry. Suddenly, there was a NG movement. Jet Li said it was good. It's a scene in which Wu Xing breaks through the window and moves irregularly. He was caught by the window frame and soon stood firm. Master Yuan understood at once, saying that it is this kind of realism that you want, so the whole movie has wonderful and intense action scenes.

Let's start with action. After determining the realistic action style of the whole film, Yuan Heping designed different styles for several protagonists. Different martial arts routines. And the actor is also the best at present: Zhen Chen played by Jet Li is the protagonist, and Zhen Chen, born out of Yu Xiaolong, is concise and neat, and the Jeet Kune Do style is naturally his. Don't confront the enemy head-on, be flexible. This is the thinking of China's traditional art of war, and it is also the thinking of Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do "just around the corner, but don't just see your fingers and forget the moon". After that, I seldom see any works that can fully express the spirit of China Wushu. Jason Wu's hero is nothing more than this.

In terms of literary drama, the routine of Hero of Jason Wu is not novel, such as the love between China hero and Japanese beauties, and the story structure of Romeo and Juliet, which adds a bit of affection and tragedy to this man's bloody film. However, this setting is an embarrassing microcosm of Sino-Japanese exchanges at that time and even now. During the Revolution of 1911, Japan contributed to China in many aspects, and gave full support in terms of funds, weapons and training ... This is also mentioned in the film. Sun Wen, an old friend of the Japanese, has different views on the merits and demerits of that period of history, but there is no doubt that Japan did provide a lot of help. However, Japanese ambition towards China has always hindered the real cooperation between the two sides. The discord between the people represented by the ambassador and the military represented by Fujita Takashi was actually a true portrayal of the confrontation between the Japanese military department and the cabinet at that time. It is a pity that the feud between China and Japan has been inseparable enemies over the years.

In a word, the film Hero of Jason Wu is a classic, which can be handed down from generation to generation. Although the scenery and plot are not exquisite enough, it has its flaws for an action movie. The only pity is that the ending is a mere formality. "Where are the most Japanese in China? Three northeastern provinces? Then let's go there and have fun. " Come on, when the Japanese soldiers came out of the Dojo with a 38-year-old cover, didn't everyone just stand still? The front is fine, why can't it be a little more atmospheric here? "Light energy can't fight, we must know how to fight, and we must mobilize more people to resist Japan. We can't save the whole country alone. " If there is such a line in the end, then this movie will have no regrets. I shot this line based on a similar movie "Whip of God" (Mr. Feng Jicai's masterpiece), which is also a good movie. Many years later, no matter Donnie Yen's Jason Wu Fengyun or Jet Li's own Huo Yuanjia, although the capital and manpower are better than this one, there is no real understanding of Jason Wu and no such old drama as Yasuaki Kurata. Unfortunately, no amount of gaudy scenes can hide the emptiness. The situation is better than people. This era is no longer the era of "the Great Wall will never fall". Civilians don't have to be martial, don't use Huo Yuanjia, don't praise Huang Feihong. There is no "Jason Wu" now, only "heroes".
