1. Ben Hur (1959 Edition)

Director: William Wheeler

Starring: Charlden Heston, Hugh Grievous

Evaluation:

Please forgive me that I can hardly describe this film in my own barren language. This is the greatest epic film in history. In the 1950s, Hollywood was full of ancient costume epic blockbusters that had been popular for 10 years. The commercial intentions of filmmakers for quick success and instant benefit and great success can be seen at a glance. Ben Hur, the 1959 film, can be called the peak of this huge film craze, and it also declared the end of this huge film era.

Since the silent film era, Ben Hur -- The Story of Christ has been put on the screen several times. And Ben Hur, which was funded by MGM and directed by William Wheeler, has a magnificent scene and momentum. Its excellent dialogue, colorful exotic atmosphere and Heston's rough line performance complement each other, and is considered to be the most successful one. At the 32nd Academy Awards, the film won a total of 11 awards, setting the highest record in the history of the Academy Awards. This record was not equalled by Titanic until 1997, and then there was Lord of the Rings 3.

When talking about the artistry of the film, director William Wheeler said that the shooting of the film was a "defensive assault" on television. Compared with television, it fully showed the advantages of the film, such as grand scenes, numerous characters, strong camera movements and broad pictures.

In a word, the success of Ben Hur is regarded as a miracle in the film history. It not only brings huge profits to its production company, but also brings new ideas and new ways for the film industry, and makes the film in the late 1950s come back to life.

2. Lawrence of Arabia

Director: David Ryan

Starring: Peter Otto, Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn, Jack Hawkins

Evaluation:

The name of this movie may not even exist in the memory of ordinary people, but the more experienced fans will not be unfamiliar with it. This is a grand epic film based on real people and events in history. This play is an ingenious combination of fact and art. It is loyal to reality but beyond reality. It creates various images and emotions, which are more intense and stimulating than Lawrence himself. This is a really great thriller. The film's directing technique and photography are extremely excellent. It not only shows the magnificent battle scenes, but also analyzes the inner world of historical characters. It successfully portrays an adventurer who is humble, unpredictable, bold, and dominated by vanity and lust. This film won seven awards, including the 35th Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Director.

3. Lord of the Rings

Director: Peter Jackson

Starring: Ilya Woodian McLaren Orlando Bloomvigo Mortensen

Evaluation:

Needless to say, this is a magnificent Chinese epic. Thanks to Peter Jackson, let him have the Lord of the Rings to show us.

4. Brave Heart

Director: Mel Gibson

Starring: Mel Gibson, Sophie Marceau

Evaluation:

"Brave Heart" is a solemn and stirring epic film integrating blood and tears. In 1996, he won five awards, including best film and best director, in the 68th Academy Awards. The film is adapted from the real events in Scotland at the end of the 14th century. William Wallace, the hero of the story, not only has a real person, but also his heroic deeds make him a national hero in Scotland.

At the same time of the flourishing entertainment films in the film world and the pursuit of entertainment, excitement and high box office in technical films, Brave Heart has boldly innovated, used the historical themes of heavy depression, melancholy and indignation, brought the great historical event of the Scottish people's uprising in the 13th century to the screen, and won the title of epic blockbuster for the film with its magnificent momentum. In the film, we saw the mountains, forests and villages in Scotland, the sad bagpipes and the shrill cry of Scottish people against the pain of poverty. People felt the real life and history. At the same time, Mel Gibson acted as a director in addition to playing the leading role, and he did not neglect people's appreciation psychology in the structure of the film. In the battle of sword light, sword shadow and iron blood, there is a tender love theme, which makes people feel the soul stirring iron blood tenderness of the heroic legend. This has undoubtedly made a greater market for historical films of ancient costume.

5. Gladiator

Director: Riley Scott

Starring actors: Russell Crowe, Joaquin Phoenix

Evaluation:

The era of epic blockbusters in the 50-60s of the 20th century has long passed away, and the story of the golden battle and the sword has been forgotten by most audiences. The director Ridley Scott returns to this theme, reappearing the magnificent ancient Roman arena on the screen, and telling people a story about courage and revenge.

Apart from the ideological content, the fight scenes in this film are really new. Most of the previous processing methods used real panorama, while this film shows the details of waist cutting, head flying and plasma soaring with quick flash close-up. This MTV style quick cut and quick cut enhances the visual shock. The protagonist played by Crowe is not short of the impulsion of his Australian compatriot Gibson when he was young. His anger erupts from his heart, which can make full use of his emotional temperament. Fenix made a deep excavation of the character potential of Comodos, making people feel his painful and weak side and avoiding the clown like portrayal. The film won five awards, including the 73rd Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Actor.

6. 300 Spartans

Director: Zach Schneider

Starring: Gerald Butler

Evaluation:

Do you need to say more? When 300 people fight against a million soldiers in the movie, when it starts, the wonderful battle scenes, the combination of fast and slow cameras, the thick oil painting, the classic lines: "Tonight, we'll have dinner in hell together", and the spirit of never say die man

7. The Kingdom of Heaven

Director: Riley Scott

Starring: Orlando Bloom, Eva Green, Jeremy Irons, David Zellis

Evaluation:

After the film was released, it suffered a box office fiasco. People jokingly said that the director had paid a tuition of 140 million yuan for Orlando Bloom. However, when the extended version of the film's director DVD was released, people were surprised to find that the original culprit was the film distribution company. They cut a classic into a bad film. We were lucky that there was a director's editing version. To put it another way, if you want to see it, go to a director's edited version instead of a cinema version.

8. Alexander the Great

Director: Oliver Stone

Starring: Angelina Jolie, Val Kilmer, Colin Farrell

Evaluation:

This is a controversial film, but if Oliver Stone's film is not controversial, it is the most controversial. Despite the controversy of the film, the effects of several battles in the film are extraordinarily lifelike, making people feel as if they are in the scene. The description of Alexander the Great has also jumped out of the previous mode, showing us a new screen image.

9. Patriot

Director: Roland Emmerick

Starring: Mel Gibson

Evaluation:

Before they became soldiers, they were all members of the family; Before they became legends, they were heroes; Before a country is born, there must be a war for freedom

This is another film with an epic background starring Mel Gibson. The creative staff is strong. The script is written by Rupert Rudy, the screenwriter of Saving Private Ryan, and the director is Roland Imalic of Independence Day and Coolsla. It was a major Hollywood blockbuster of that year.

This film has made great efforts to reproduce the history in a real way. In order to be realistic and present the most original scene, the production team also specially cooperated with the "Smithsonian" organization, which is equivalent to the history museum we often say, specializing in studying and preserving the history and culture of the United States. The director also moved the shooting scene to South Carolina, where the Independence War took place at that time, He also rebuilt a town in accordance with the architectural style of the 18th century, and even studied the trees planted in South Carolina, which shows the director's intention.

10. Troy

Evaluation:

Troy, adapted from Greek mythology, has a huge cast, which is a famous gimmick of this film. We just need to glance at the cast list to find the full reason for our expectation of this film. Brad Pitt, who has won the title of "the sexiest man in the world" for many times, plays Achilles, the Greek hero. German actress Diane Kruger becomes the best candidate for Helen, the "goddess of beauty". The new kid, Orlando Bloom, has just taken off his clothes as an elf archer and turned to the city of Troy to sit on the prince's seat, playing the young and ignorant beauty in the myth. In addition, Eric Bana in The Hulk and veteran movie star Brian Cox play Trojan hero Hertoker and General Agamemnon of Basda respectively. The former is a brave and resolute tragic hero, and the latter is a cruel and selfish general against Greece. In the land of Troy, people will stage a thrilling legend. Different from the fantasy theme of the original work, Troy shows us the most realistic large-scale war of human beings.
