How to evaluate infinity? Is it worth seeing?

The infinite picture is commendable. In terms of visual enjoyment, Chen Kaige showed his extraordinary strength to his old rival Zhang Yimou. Compared with the emptiness of Hero and the thinness of House of Flying Daggers, Chen Kaige's Love and Lies is really much better.

Chen Kaige showed the leap of China's film special effects with "The Promise". Not to mention the ethereal and quiet beauty in "Flowers in the Mirror", the "infinite world" constructed by combining the illusory world with the real scene in the film is absolutely eye-catching.

In addition to the exquisiteness of the picture, the whole play has only a bunch of obviously carefully polished Shakespeare-style dialogues. Every sentence seems to be full of philosophy, and at the same time it is dry and tasteless. The picture is worth seeing, but the plot is not worth seeing for the sake of dialogue.

The main plot of The Promise: The poor girl is specially cared for by Shen Man (Chen Hong), the goddess of fate. When she grows up, she becomes the Princess of the Allure (Cecilia Cheung) and is loved by all kinds of people, but she also becomes a person cursed by fate that "unless she goes back in time and comes back from the dead, she will never get true love".

In the love wrestling with Gong Bei (Nicholas Tse), General Guangming (Hiroyuki Sanada) and others, Qingcheng was used as a bargaining chip by the other side again and again, and the spell worked.

But the humble slave Kunlun slave (Zhang Dongjian) really loves the whole city. He expects to break the chain of fate imposed on the whole city with his running close to the speed of light, so that she can return to the starting point of life and regain the right to choose.
