In the blink of an eye, half of 2024 has passed, what are the domestic hit dramas you can think of?
Magnolia's "Flowers", which won multiple awards, "Celebrating More Than Years 2", which returned from the original cast, and Yu Zheng's dark horse work "Between the Ink and Rain".
Looking at it this way, there are also many dramas that let the audience chase to the end.
But in comparison, there are more bad dramas.
Among them, the spy war drama is the most embarrassing, and it is no wonder that some netizens said that "there is no spy war drama after Liu Yunlong".
finally appeared in a "Wind Chaser", but because the fans of the male protagonist and the male protagonist were inseparable, the rating fell again and again.
In fact, if the show is compared with the classics, it is not even worthy of lifting shoes for others.
In the final analysis, it is because the spy war theme is going downhill, and the audience is really "hungry"!
And now there is a new drama "Lonely Battle Maze" to meet the audience, I thought I could fight for a breath, but after watching 6 episodes, the audience was collectively speechless.
So what's going on?
01 Oily noodles are too embarrassing
I believe that the audience, like me, when watching this drama, the biggest feeling is one word: fake!
Let's look at the heroine first, Xin Zhilei.
Qin Moqing, played by her, is a military doctor of the 38th Division of the newly formed First Army of the Expeditionary Force, and follows the troops in the old forests of Myanmar at the beginning.
But even in such a difficult environment, her clothes are brand new and clean, is it possible?
What's even more outrageous is the two bangs in front of Xin Zhilei's head.
Every time the range of movement is a little larger, it will block her eyes, and the audience will feel uncomfortable for her, and they can't wait to rush into the screen to pluck off these two "cockroach whiskers".
Please, Xin Zhilei plays a resolute, sassy and capable female soldier and female soldier, and when she arrives on the battlefield, she always pays attention to using bangs to modify her face plate, which is not necessary.
And her white coat, spotless, as if she had never worn it in normal times, and suddenly put it on for a pose after seeing the camera.
Xin Zhilei, who took off her uniform, did not feel like a soldier at all, her dress and makeup were comparable, as if she was afraid that others would not know that she was the heroine.
However, if you want to say that the most dramatic role has to be the male protagonist Ou Xiaoan played by Huang Jingyu.
Because he lost his memory and was still wearing the military uniform of Xiaori, he was suspected of his position by the expeditionary force, so he was temporarily detained as a prisoner.
In the process of escorting back to Chongqing, in order to avoid trouble, the group took off their military uniforms and uniforms and dressed up a little, which is understandable.
But Huang Jingyu's body is obviously well-designed, the clothes are all new, the hair is sprayed with a lot of hairspray, and a hairstyle is specially grabbed.
What's the matter, this is going back to Chongqing to make your debut?
In addition to modeling oily head and powder, Huang Jingyu's acting skills are also "greasy" to the end!
For example, on the way to the male protagonist's undercover, his comrade-in-arms was accidentally arrested and tortured to extract a confession, and he could only hide his emotions, this scene is undoubtedly the highlight moment.
But Huang Jingyu patronized the stinky beauty, and while drinking red wine, he turned his head sideways and posed, and he didn't care at all.
Good guy, this traitor's identity doesn't look like it's pretending.
And when he needed to understand the lives of his comrades-in-arms with his own hands, the male protagonist cried out in public, and a tear slipped from the corner of his eye, what is the difference between this and self-explosion?
In reality, he is estimated to die 800 times, and the sacrifice of his comrades is meaningless.
It can only be said that the Anti-Japanese War drama saved the male protagonist and allowed him to continue to "cup" with the halo of the protagonist.
It is not difficult to see that Huang Jingyu's acting in spy war dramas is still a routine of acting in idol dramas, tilting his head, smiling evilly, and throwing flattering eyes, this set of tricks is always so embarrassing that his toes have to be pulled out of an intelligence station.
Very good acting, don't act next time.
02 The Anti-Japanese War drama is outrageous
In addition to "Lonely Lost City", Huang Jingyu's performance in "Ace Troops" is also controversial.
On the one hand, it is because he has played the ruffian of the military like a hooligan, sitting without sitting and standing without standing.
On the other hand, because his acting skills are too exaggerated, the scene of grinning and shouting at his brother still makes people unbearable to look at it directly.
It seems that the term "military service in domestic entertainment" is an overestimation of Huang Jingyu.
In fact, roles such as soldiers and agents have always been the types that domestic entertainment stars want to try, after all, if they act well, they can also bring their own filters.
But not everyone can act well, especially those actors who just want to be handsome through their roles, which is even more embarrassing.
is like Wang Yibo in "The Wind Chaser".
Wei Ruolai played by him in the early stage, which was in line with the image of the character, looking like a poor boy.
But after becoming a soldier, his temperament didn't fit the role, his small body couldn't stand up to the military uniform, he looked dry and thin, but he still didn't forget to grab a big back for himself, and he didn't get rid of the idol idol feeling from head to toe.
Li Qin, who is in the same crew, also has a virtue, and after putting on a military uniform, he has to dress up in a fancy way, with a lot of eyeliner, eyelashes, and lipstick, and those who don't know think they are here for a beauty pageant.
In addition, Peng Xiaoran in "Thrush" is also a big surprise.
The heroine she plays is a female soldier of public security, witty and intelligent, with extraordinary skills, and her character design is quite sensitive, but she has a "steamed bun face" on her head, and her makeup is like an Internet celebrity.
And her posture of dealing with wounds is also contrived enough, every action is thinking about how she can look good in front of the camera, and she doesn't capture the soul of the character at all, no wonder the play is pitiful.
and Yang Mi in "Harbin 1944" also has nothing to do with the role of the secret service leader.
Not to mention that her makeup is flawless, just look at this standing posture, hunched back, stretching her neck, a faint sense of steal comes to her face, and there is no way to connect her with the character.
In these years, anyone can play agents and soldiers, but the audience's eyes are bright, who is perfunctory, and who is deliberately handsome and beautiful, in fact, it is clear at a glance.
I just want these traffic stars in domestic entertainment to be less involved in the main theme themes such as spy wars and anti-Japanese wars, so as not to embarrass the audience anymore.
03 Conclusion
In fact, "Lonely Lost City" will start in 2022, and the audience can be regarded as waiting for this drama for two years.
And the popularity of the actors in the play is not small, especially Xin Zhilei, who is completely out of the circle this year because of "Flowers", and her popularity has soared, and she also has a good traffic blessing for this new work.
But if a spy war drama wants to succeed, this traffic alone is not enough, and what can really retain the audience lies in the content and acting skills.
It's a pity that the story of the show has a lot of loopholes, and the service is not fake, even the actors can't play the role, and the idol baggage of the two leading actors is not small, and they can't put it on the shelf, which leads to the wrong taste.
It seems that traffic actors are still incompatible with the main drama, and if they want to transform, they should improve their strength.
At present, "Lonely Lost City" is still being updated, and the follow-up plot may be better, I don't know if you are still willing to continue chasing dramas?
