While surveying a telegraph line in 1861, Western Union engineer Edward Creighton (Dean Jagger) is severely injured in an accident. He is discovered by Vance Shaw (Randolph Scott), an outlaw on the run from a posse. Forced to travel on foot after his horse was hurt, Shaw at first considers stealing Creighton's horse, but changes his mind and takes the man with him, saving his life.
Sometime later, following his recovery, Creighton returns to Omaha, Nebraska and plans the construction of a telegraph line from Omaha to Salt Lake City, Utah. Facing considerable opposition to the line from Confederate soldiers, Indians, and outlaws, Creighton elicits the help of his sister Sue (Virginia Gilmore), foreman Pat Grogan (Minor Watson), and assistant Homer Kettle (Chill Wills).
Looking to put his outlaw past behind him, Shaw arrives at Creighton's Western Union office looking for honest work and is hired as a scout by Grogan who is unaware of his past. Creighton recognizes him among the men and allows him to stay despite his suspicions. Creighton also hires tenderfoot Richard Blake (Robert Young), a Harvard-educated engineer as a favor to Blake's father. Shaw and Blake are both attracted to Sue and vie for her attention, but their romantic rivalry is cut short when construction of the telegraph line starts on July 4, 1861.
After work commences on the line, one of the men is killed apparently by a mysterious band of cattle-rustling Indians. Unconvinced that Indians are to blame, Shaw rides out to investigate and follows the rustlers' trail to the camp of Jack Slade, a former friend and cohort, whose gang committed the killing disguised as Indians—the gang Shaw left following his last bank robbery. Slade reveals that they are working for the Confederacy to disrupt Western Union because they believe the telegraph service will help the Union. Shaw rides away and returns to the line. Not wanting to turn in his former friends, Shaw tells Creighton that a large band of Dakota Indians stole the cattle, and recommends that they simply replace the herd and not risk a fight with the Indians.
Sometime later, a confrontation takes place between men working on the forward line and a band of drunken Indians. When one of the Indians tries to steal some equipment, a nervous Blake shoots him, ignoring Shaw's order to remain calm. After word arrives that the main camp is under attack by other Indians, the Western Union men rush back to help with the defense. At the main camp, Slade's men, who are again disguised as Indians, steal the Western Union horses. The company discover the ruse when one of the wounded Indians turns out to be a white man. Forced to buy back their stolen horses from Slade, Creighton becomes suspicious of Shaw's involvement, especially when he admits to knowing the gang.
Soon the U.S. Army arrives and announces the Indians have now refused to allow the telegraph lines to go through their territory in response to Blake's shooting of the drunken Indian. Creighton, Shaw, and Blake ride out to convince Chief Spotted Horse to allow them to build the line through Indian territory, even though the man Blake wounded was Spotted Horse's son. Creighton is finally able to persuade the Indians to allow them passage, and work continues until the company approaches Salt Lake City.
Sometime later, Shaw receives word that Jack Slade wants to meet with him. On the way to see Slade, Shaw is captured and bound by Slade's men. Slade says his group is going to burn down the Western Union camp and they don't want Shaw to interfere. After Slade and his men ride off, Shaw escapes from his ropes but arrives back too late to prevent the fire. He helps rescue some of the Western Union men from the flames and burns his hands in the process.
After the fire, Creighton confronts Shaw for an explanation, but Shaw does not reveal what he knows and is fired by Creighton. As Shaw leaves the camp, he tells Blake that Slade is actually Shaw's brother and that he, Shaw, will find Slade's gang and stop them from interfering with the telegraph project. Shaw rides off and finds Slade and his men in a nearby town. At the barber shop, Shaw confronts his brother, whose gun is concealed under the barber's sheet. Slade shoots Shaw through the sheet. Shaw fights back in spite of his wound, killing some of the gang members, and then dies. Blake arrives and continues the fight with Slade who dies from his wounds. Soon after, the Western Union line is completed and the workers celebrate. When Sue laments the absence of Shaw, Creighton tells her that Shaw can hear them.
很酷的武侠故事，临清也有自己的一方江湖，或者说有人的地方，就有江湖。大量的打斗戏，占据了三分之二的篇幅，非常过瘾，而且当中还有枪、戟等传统兵器，就是熟悉的武侠味。当然，我觉得《枕刀歌之尘世行》最值得称道的一点是没有把正反两派做简单的对立，而是去刻画不同人物的不同立场。他们或许有各自的使命，这是他们拔刀相向的原因，可仔细去想也没有明确的谁对谁错。这种引发思考的设计很有情怀。武侠从来都不是一个人的武侠，而是一群人的武侠，所以，我们看的是群像戏，江湖纷扰，快意恩仇。
罗通前传，但是一方面罗通没有剧集男主何方知的少年侠气吸引人，另一方面电影版放大了剧集的缺点，即剧情薄弱。说到底罗通的故事和何方知是同一个，而罗通的复仇远没有何方知热血。打戏再好，也不能长一板而短所有吧。
所谓江湖，快意恩仇，仇恨就是逻辑，多谈人性，少讲大道理，各有各的理，就是反派蛰伏谋划20年被家破人亡的小子从头到尾一路反杀说得过去吗？
江湖无死，似见古龙。打戏太过精彩，台词和剧情可以更好。
不同社会不同阶层文化价值观和教育观的矛盾、主线母女之间的矛盾、夫妻之间的矛盾、母亲患癌症的矛盾、带有特殊时代背景（非典）的矛盾，想要表达的东西很多，但都是浅尝而止，而主线的母女矛盾，感觉有点莫名其妙，就算是因为母亲的缘故，女孩离开自己喜爱的美国，也不至于对母亲这般的恨，更奇怪的是，两者之间的和解处理的不好，感觉像是无缘无故就好上了，加之上整个影片十分拖沓，观影过程容易出戏（吐槽完了后面是夸奖的）演员演技全部在线，母女吵架那场戏爆发力足好看，影片质感很好，叙事相对流畅，镜头语言丰富，可是留白过多需要慢慢解读。
武打真的太强了，秒杀一万个雪中慢刀行，我就想问B站为什么瞎了不买这部片
三星半
9.5
动漫能有这样流畅的打戏实属不易，已经在疯狂安利同学了，好动漫应该分享，不能被埋没了。
叙事四平八稳，不温吞，也没有太刻意的戏剧化冲突。面对生命流逝摇摇欲坠，家庭关系紧张碰撞，大环境焦虑恐慌，林嘉欣的表演非常细腻，收放自如，隐忍的，狂躁的，无奈的，崩溃的，都处理的很到位，很难不对她共情。
武术动作可谓是国产动画历史最佳了。不仅是一招一式，所有兵器形制都有考究。因最近看的《中国刀剑史》，对片尾兵器谱美设中的名词都分外眼熟。
江湖的惨烈无情、人性纠葛令人愤慨，也有点憋闷，但动作的行云流水、洒脱凌厉充满艺术美感，也非常爽。动作的爽冲淡了剧情的憋，入口绵柔不辣喉。但朝代更迭，庙堂与江湖的纷争却是永不落幕。
枕刀歌之尘世行打戏节奏、动作设计得真的可以用完美来评价。酣畅淋漓，以文入武，以武代文，文戏武戏毫无拖沓，真差不多是从头打到尾了。再和今天的真人剧一对比高下立判。片中干脆利落，甚至人物的死都干脆利落，导致武艺的流失，高手的落败，谜团永远也解不开让人惋惜。例如西门仁最后想给红娘施展真正的梨花枪，却被一戟砍死。他的身世以及真正梨花枪法目前是不会被观众得知细节了。这种残缺的丢失的部分缺恰巧成为了一种类似佛家成坏败空的哲学观点，西门仁死时说世无英雄遂使竖子成名，墙倒众人推着实让观众唏嘘。
怎么那么蠢？毫无逻辑的剧情，莫名其妙的对白，单薄可笑的人设。画工，打斗也是下品。
武打动作精彩确实不让人失望，转黑白的两场戏简直想要鼓掌叫好！更难得是故事也讲的很好，是有“人气”的武侠！精彩！中国动画有未来的！！主创团队多拍点！迫不及待想为你们花钱了！（没有看过剧版完全不影响！但我立刻准备去补上了！
以罗通为视角，漕帮卷入阴谋之中，同样是为父报仇，背后的老谋深算，谁曾想，下一代还是要卷入其中，到底什么是大业呢？被洗脑过了头的人真是天真的可怕~
看完《美國女孩》了，相比《瀑布》还是更喜欢这一部。鍾孟宏的《瀑布》太风格化，镜头的角度太犀利，不是说这样不好，但两部同样都是在疫情之下（时空不同）讲述亲情故事的电影显然用太独特的作者视听去叙事，其带给观众的情感冲击没有《美國女孩》这样慢条斯理、稳扎稳打的叙事影响大。而且本片不仅描述了亲情，它还会带上地域文化的对比、女孩成长过程中的烦恼以及母女关系的破裂到和解，让我感同身受。但第三幕中双方情绪的转变还是太突然太快了，我认为不能算是佳作，今年的金馬獎其实都蛮失望的。
可惜，真的很可惜。西门仁的宏愿，本来是合理的，剧情上却刻画得不够，没有给足理由，甚至逻辑上还有些立不住。因为很难让观众相信，一个志愿于一方太平的人，首先做的不是推翻腐臭的官家，而是杀尽江湖上的武夫。同样的，西门仁自诩看透世事，被问到如何对抗官府时，倚仗的却是三千门徒乌合之众？人物自相矛盾没有立住，就使得故事的真实性大打折扣。其他一些小毛病比如江渊死得莫名（彩蛋暗示没死）、罗影完全未交待来历等等也影响观感。但我仍愿向主创献上敬意，因为我看到他们讲好故事的诚意。武侠是中国独有的文化，已经太久没有真正的武侠作品了，希望枕刀歌后续的故事越来越好
叙事四平八稳，不温吞，也没有太刻意的戏剧化冲突。面对生命流逝摇摇欲坠，家庭关系紧张碰撞，大环境焦虑恐慌，林嘉欣的表演非常细腻，收放自如，隐忍的，狂躁的，无奈的，崩溃的，都处理的很到位，很难不对她共情。
我好不能理解呀，一家子分居甚至國籍都不一樣的生活了五年，他們幹嘛還要異國戀維繫這個夫妻身份？
