For example, 200 1, shaolin soccer Sweeping the Golden Awards.

It also pushed the film history record of Hong Kong films to the 60 million mark for the first time, 20 million more than the second-ranked film "Slimming Men and Women".

Another example is "The Mermaid", a work of 20 16, which created a box office myth in the Mainland that year, exceeding 3.3 billion yuan.

Compared with the second-place Zootopia and the third-place Warcraft, its box office has exceeded several hundred million dollars.

There are also many films that have begun to dominate the annual crown and break the record of the Hong Kong film industry.

There is also the series "A Chinese Odyssey", which is dubbed as a masterpiece.

But before this epoch-making masterpiece Kung Fu in 2004.

Everything is in the past.

First of all, what kind of work is Kung Fu?

Many people's first reaction must be comedy.

Yes, all the films in Stephen Chow have been labeled as "gamblers" since that year. Although he once said that all his films were tragedies, they were regarded as comedies.

But first, we can look at the genre labels of Kung Fu, which are comedy, action, crime and fantasy.

In other words, it is actually a mixed type, so it cannot be defined by a single type.

It is called comedy, because movies are absurd and exaggerated, and often make the audience smile.

When it comes to action, traditional kung fu and whimsy are endless, such as fire clouds and evil spirits, folk masters, hired men, hired women, blind killers, Who's Who, Hongjia Tiexian Boxing, Goro Bagua Stick, Twelve Tantui, heartbroken songs, lion's roar, tiptoe and so on. Watching action movies can also make people fascinated.

The opening "Who else", silent police, crocodile gang, axe gang, pig cage city village, gangs in the old society are rampant and cruel. If it's not a crime movie, what is it?

The bullied little mute, boy, lollipop and martial arts secret, and finally the invincible Tathagata palm, this is a fairy tale, hidden in almost every boy or man's heart, emerging at the right time, which is called fantasy.

These elements are completely integrated and cannot be distinguished from each other.

This is the feature of the movie Kung Fu.

Even in the world film history, it is fully capable of competing with any work.

Followed by the plot.

Under the shell of various types of integration, what really touches people is not the complexity of the plot, but the purity.

To put it simply, the young man's mind of weeding out the strong and helping the weak is dusty in the years, and he is bent on wandering the rivers and lakes, forgetting his own life, bullying the weak and being afraid of the hard, and pleasing the gangsters has become his behavior until he meets the little mute and sees the lollipop, and his memories flood in, so he can't face himself and escape. In fact, the fierceness that drove the fat man away later came from his anger.

The boy is back again.

What impressed me most about the whole film was the kindness of people.

So Stephen Chow just told a simple and pure fairy tale.

And everyone is multifaceted, just like the complexity of human nature.
