Film Review of Young Heroes Since Ancient Times
The special feature of this film is that several children are the protagonists of the whole film, and there are many struggles and small conflicts from beginning to end, which are wonderful and vivid. There are no films featuring children, but there are more than one kung fu film featuring children, all of which are stunts. Such movies were really rare in the past. Another feature of this film is its beautiful scenery.
With youthful and lively stories, simple entertainment and real martial arts movements, the film has fully influenced two generations and left a deep memory in many people's hearts. The scenery of the film is more exciting than the story, and the children's performances are more exciting than the story itself. The story is unremarkable and lacks the charm sought by the audience, but the wonderful performance of the children is very attractive and worthy of being a hero.
