The TV series "Lonely Battle Maze" successfully made viewers who like spy war dramas excited again. From "The Wind Chaser" to "Harbin 1944", the audience has gradually had higher requirements for the quality of spy war dramas.
This "Lonely Lost City" almost debuted at the much-anticipated juncture of spy war dramas.
Judging from the broadcast performance of this drama, "Lonely Battle Maze" was very popular as soon as it was launched, and after four episodes, it successfully attracted the audience into the pit.
The TV series takes the eve of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War as the time background, telling the story of Ou Xiaoan (played by Huang Jingyu), a member of our party, after escaping from the Japanese army's biochemical gas research institute, relying on sporadic memories to piece together important information in his mind and smash the story of the Japanese army's vicious plan.
Starting from the actor configuration and the main line highlights, "Lonely Battle Maze" is actually a spy war drama from the perspective of the male protagonist.
But who would have thought that Xin Zhilei, as the heroine, would become the most eye-catching actor after the TV series was launched.
is amazing when she appears, this is the appearance of a female agent in a spy war drama
The audience's deepest on-screen impression of Xin Zhilei is Li Li in "Flowers", in this drama, she is sexy and noble, both her appearance and personality charm are full.
After Li Li came out of the circle, in fact, many viewers attributed Xin Zhilei's appearance and acting skills to Wong Kar-wai's training, but Xin Zhilei in "Lonely City" is still full of charm after leaving Wong Kar-wai.
In the play, Xin Zhilei was stunning as soon as she appeared, and the heroine Qin Moqing she played was wearing a military uniform, proudly holding a wine bottle in a group of American soldiers, and pouring herself bottle after bottle.
And Xin Zhilei in the picture, the makeup is simple, full of heroism, her gestures are bold, and she squints at the appearance of the American soldier, full of disdain and dissatisfaction. The wine bottle fell, and Qin Moqing shouted, "Tomorrow I will be in my camp tent and see the penicillin you lost to me", at this moment Xin Zhilei's appearance has been slightly drunk, and the moistness in her eyes and bright red lips have stained the character with some wine-colored breath.
But in the next second, Qin Moqing was sober again, Xin Zhilei, who was full of charming and sexy social attributes, went offline, and Xin Zhilei, who was keenly alert, calm and wise, went online, Qin Moqing sneaked into the database of American soldiers, with a serious expression and sharp eyes, Xin Zhilei in the picture bit the flashlight and barely lit it in the faint light, and her slightly frowning appearance instantly brought the audience to a nervous mood.
When the American GIs surrounded her, Xin Zhilei's state instantly jumped out of the setting of a female agent, she disguised herself as an unlucky guy who stole penicillin after making a bet and was caught again, with an expression of "just stealing something, not to" written on her face, which made Qin Moqing's character's super camouflage ability more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In the drama "Lonely Maze", the spy agent portrayed by Xin Zhilei is not only online in appearance, but also outstanding in acting, she integrates the beauty of women with the professionalism of spy agents, not only her appearance can withstand close-ups, but her acting skills make the plot quite exciting.
In contrast to Xin Zhilei, a large number of "female spies" in domestic spy war dramas are like playing at home.
Don't act hard without acting skills, the gap is obvious
In the TV series "Harbin 1944", the heroine played by Yang Mi is a female spy of the military commander, although her story line does not have elements such as spy lurking, but she is similar to Xin Zhilei in character setting.
But in "Harbin 1944", it is also a plot that shows the threat ruthlessly, Yang Mi will only stretch his neck and detract his mouth, and his acting skills will be greasy.
Compared with Xin Zhilei's "You dare to move, I'll try" with one look, Yang Mi's acting skills are lame.
What is outrageous is that Yang Mi, who has always had a red carpet face, is not as beautiful as Xin Zhilei, Xin Zhilei has a full face in the play, and has the high intelligence of a mature woman, but there is no fatigue and aging with age.
But Yang Mi, the aging around the eyes and lips is particularly obvious, the skin is not full, and there is also a sense of relaxation of the separation of skin and flesh, and the meat on her face can't be hung, which makes her look very tired.
Some people are poor in acting skills and beauty, and some people are not good enough in pure acting skills.
In the spy war drama "Sparrow", Xu Bicheng played by Zhou Dongyu is a well-informed female agent, judging from her age, of course Zhou Dongyu will not have Yang Mi's tiredness, but her acting skills are really too blunt.
In the plot, she looked very funny when she cried, her whole face was wrinkled together, and her already small eyes seemed to have small eye special effects, which was especially weird, and her frowning brows and hard corners of her mouth intensified Zhou Dongyu's sense of comedy in acting.
This kind of performance may still have some highlights in urban romantic dramas, but it is too inconsistent when placed on the female agent of the spy war drama.
is also a beauty, Tong Liya's appearance is actually highly compatible with the glamorous female spy in the audience's mind. But Tong Liya's acting skills are not enough, and Gao Daxia played in "Xiaguang" is simply a flamboyant fool with flying facial features.
In the picture, Tong Liya's eyebrows are always dancing, and when emphasizing some lines, she subconsciously chews the words, and her expression is so exaggerated that she can't wait to show all her teeth for the audience to count clearly.
Under such a performance, it is really difficult for the audience to believe that the female agent they play is a trustworthy and reliable comrade.
Fortunately, although the female casting in spy war dramas often overturns, there are still some excellent portrayals.
For example, Wang Ou in "The Pretender" is sexy and glamorous, and her methods are ruthless, in addition to beauty, she also has the means to kill people without blinking, and she still looks calm and indifferent in a miserable scream.
Before Qin Moqing played by Xin Zhilei, there must be a place for Wang Ou in the most recognized image of female spies, and even after the female spy played by Yang Mi overturned, many netizens recalled the classics and realized how good Wang Ou was in "The Pretender".
Facts have proved that if you want to play a good female spy and a female spy, you must have enough glamorous appearance and eye-catching acting skills.
Of course, the protagonist of the drama "Lonely Lost City" is, after all, the male protagonist played by Huang Jingyu, and the plot line of the male protagonist is the key to determining the broadcast effect of "Lonely Lost City", and Xin Zhilei, as a stable surprise in this drama, as long as this drama is broadcast normally, she can eat the dividends of the character and the script.
For actors, this is a good thing to achieve each other.
It's a pity that too many actresses either don't have enough appearance, or their acting skills are sparse, and the final effect is not good, and the audience can be blamed for being too harsh.
Finally, what do you think of Xin Zhilei's portrayal? Nominate the actress you want to play as a female agent.
