I watched a movie and thought about it for almost half a month before I came up with this sentence. It must be slow.
The fable novel The Legend of Wukong is regarded as a passionate journey to the West.
Watching movies now, young people still see passion burning.
I only see the rules.
1
The whole film begins with the introduction, telling us that this is a regular world.
There are rules on the ground, rules in the sky and rules everywhere.
So a monkey came out, but breaking this rule is an exception.
So Jiro came out to defend this rule.
In order to make this rule look easier to understand, give it a new name, called Providence.
So, in my opinion, this movie is about
60-year-old You (Buddha) ordered 40-year-old You (Yang Jian) to beat 20-year-old You (Wukong).
In this way, a movie full of rules and love, just embellishment makes people feel passionate but not romantic, but burning is unreasonable.
So, I began to recall the text novel of Wukong Biography.
Although Buddhism, Zen and nature are all talked about there to pave the way for love.
So, I began to miss the Chinese Odyssey, where there were fights, fights and special effects, but love was more than reason, and reason could make people emotional.
I think "where is it now" in this movie is different from "where is it now" in the novel of that year.
And then he said,
He said that it takes six hours to make a novel into a movie faithfully;
He said that if Huaguoshan is not a village, the cost will double;
He also said a lot, and I seem to understand.
He grew up from Wukong to Yang Jian.
When he talks to you with his eyes wide open,
I see. He has grown up.
Although Wukong's last stick in the movie is as long as it is,
However, I looked at the burning stick coldly.
You know, there is no hurdle in life.
But after this hurdle, there will be another hurdle.
In the play, Yang Jian is the next hurdle.
In reality, "money" is the director's hurdle.

"I don't do anything when I watch the sunset glow."
What a beautiful picture, feelings twenty years ago.
The lines describing our feelings have finally become scraps to fill the movie story.
However, a complete story cannot accommodate these fragments.
Only fighting, you can't talk when fighting. It depends on the special effects.
So the best scrap can only be put in cursive script at the end of the film.
I want this day, and I can't cover my eyes anymore.
If you want this land, you can't bury my heart any more.
I hope all creatures know what I mean,
If you want buddhas, they will all disappear.
As a result, the sunset glow has become a rag to lure the "demon cloud".
Therefore, the roller blind pieced together with glass lamps has become a fat technology madman in vain.
Therefore, all the changes have left me speechless.
Being speechless is not because he is not good, but because I am old.
It's too old to understand our original good role, and now it's called IP.
These IPS are all for making money.

In 2002
A friend recommended me to watch The Story of Wukong, which has been popular for a long time.
He said there were a lot of things with Zen machines in it.
However, after reading it, I said, this is a story about sex.
I haven't heard from him for a long time. Later, I heard that he became a monk.
After hearing the news, I watched The Story of Wukong again and saw a young man's entrepreneurial story.
After so many years, I watched the movie The Story of Wukong.
The story inside, vaguely seen, but strange, I don't know how to summarize it.
I am always slower than others. Everyone else has grown up, and I'm still standing still.
This time, however, I found that I didn't grow up alone.
On the contrary, one day, you look back and find that, er, everyone else has grown up. Well, I will grow up, too.
I asked the children around me, and they all said it was very burning and passionate. It's good.
I asked my old friends around, and they all said it was bad, routine and poor.
So, I asked myself again, maybe, this movie is not so good, nor so bad.
Young people are still burning, but I am getting old unconsciously.

There is an episode of "Qi Pa Shuo" that discusses "We will eventually become people we hate. Is it a bad thing to be people we hate?"
Huang Zhizhong discusses:
The saddest thing about tragedy is to create tragedy.
He will not stay on one person, nor will he stay on a certain generation.
Man is an animal that is easy to feel at ease. In order to feel at ease.
Will say that all changes are good.
So, finally, in order to reassure people,
To give people hope, the Monkey King won.
Finally, it made Yang Jian.
In fact,
The Monkey King will eventually become like Yang Jian.
Yang Jian will eventually become a Buddha.
That's it. You won this game and another game, but you can't win this life.
Because, as long as you fight, you are in this game and you can't run out.
When I was young, I could see love in all the stories.
When you grow up, you can see the rules in all love stories.
So, if someone says ... Wukong's story is a good movie,
Well, he's a good movie.
Although it feels like a step forward from the previous biography of Wukong.

That's what I groaned after watching the movie.
To sum up, if there is no novel as a foundation, the passing score of this film in domestic films is still good. It is a typical movie with a bad story and many golden sentences, but there are always embarrassing places. Then look at the long article published by Douban today, and I seem to know some reasons. He cares too much about the so-called word of mouth. I want to tell the story explosively. I want to win fans of old novels. I don't want to make a breakthrough in funds. I want to tell the story beautifully. Too many ideas, not many ways. The result is this.
An old comrade once said to me, "Don't say it if you can't say it clearly".
I think it is also good to use it in other places, such as movies. If you want to tell an explosion story, you must tell it in a down-to-earth way. If you want to dig deep into human nature, you must dig carefully. Sugarcane is not sweet at both ends. If you want to make money standing up, you have to cultivate yourself into a steel frame like Jiang Wen. All the branches and chapters of this film are complete, which can only make people feel very busy. They want to please many people, but they always owe something.
Finally, those who like to watch special effects can have a look. I really want to see stories, plots and wonderful ones. Let's reread the original novel. The original novel is really better than this movie. The big IP of a Chinese Odyssey can be shot many times, but can Wukong pass on this IP and continue to be brilliant? Lao Jin needs to work hard.
