"Can this also be made into a TV series?" "It's another bad movie, isn't it?" "It's fun to watch..."
This may be the reaction of many viewers when they first hear about these dramas. However, when you actually enter the world of the play, you will find:
It turns out that Go can also be so hot-blooded! It turns out that archaeological expeditions can be so brain-burning and exciting! It turns out that the sci-fi theme can also be filmed so profoundly! It turns out that urban emotional dramas can also be so stylish! It turns out that workplace dramas can be so easy and fun!
Today, let's talk about these 5 high-scoring dramas that I thought were "bad movies" at first, but after watching them, they were pleasantly surprised. With a wonderful storyline and excellent actors' performances, they successfully counterattacked and became "masterpieces" with a strong reputation. I don't know how many you've seen?
- "Chess Soul": The youthful and enthusiastic world of Go
When you think of Go, what is your first reaction?
Dull? Tedious? Arrogant on account of one's seniority?
If so, then "Chess Soul" will definitely subvert your cognition!
This drama focuses on the growth of a genius as a teenager and tells the bloody story of his adventures in the world of Go. Time is talented, but due to family changes, he once gave up Go. By chance, he not only found the direction of his life, but also met a group of like-minded friends.
In the play, Go is no longer a boring chess game, but a youthful journey full of passion and challenges. The peak duel between time and opponents, the tacit cooperation between teammates, and the mentorship and friendship between master and apprentice all make people's blood boil.
What's even more surprising is that "Chess Soul" also cleverly integrates elements such as family affection and friendship, depicting vivid and three-dimensional characters. Although Time has an impulsive personality, he is warm and kind; Hong He seems to be indifferent, but he has a soft side in his heart. Everyone finds their place in the world of Go and completes their own practice.
No wonder some viewers sighed: "It's the third time I've rewatched it, and I'm reluctant to skip the ending song every time." This is the real youth blood drama!"
- "Ultimate Notes": A brain-burning adventure
"Nine Gates", "Touching the Golden Captain", "Zhangjia Ancient Building" ......
These familiar terms have made many viewers look forward to "Ultimate Notes". However, the shadow of "Honkai" that often exists in adaptations also makes some people suspicious.
However, when the plot slowly unfolds, all worries are dissipated.
"Ultimate Notes" lives up to expectations, perfectly presenting the suspenseful and thrilling of the original work. In the play, Wu Xie, Zhang Qiling and others go deep into the underground world to explore the secrets that the Nine Families have hidden for many years. Every step of the adventure is mysterious, and every turn is breathtaking.
The most amazing thing is that while the crew restores the essence of the original work, it also adds a lot of innovative elements. For example, the fight scene of "Little Brother" Zhang Qiling is simply neat and does not drag mud and water, which makes people addicted to watch.
With a fast-paced plot and three-dimensional characters, coupled with the excellent acting skills of the actors, "The Ultimate Notes" successfully creates an immersive fantasy world. No wonder some viewers sighed: "Even if you haven't read the original work, you can completely enter the play." I'm looking forward to the second season coming soon!"
- "The Three-Body Problem": A shocking sci-fi masterpiece
When it comes to domestic sci-fi dramas, what comes to mind?
"Poor special effects"? The plot is naïve"?" Bruised"?
If so, then "Three-Body Problem" will definitely refresh your perception of domestic science fiction!
As an adaptation of Liu Cixin's novel of the same name, "The Three-Body Problem" sparked heated discussions as soon as it was broadcast. It not only perfectly restores the grand worldview of the original work, but also explores the complex relationship between human nature and technology from a unique perspective.
In the world of "The Three-Body Problem", humanity faces the threat of invasion from alien civilizations. However, the real contradiction does not only exist between humans and aliens, but also the internal games and struggles of human beings. In the face of the fear of the unknown, some people choose to betray, some cling to hope, and some people are torn between a dilemma...
This deep insight into human nature makes "The Three-Body Problem" far beyond ordinary science fiction works. As one viewer put it, "Even if the special effects aren't shocking, the depth and breadth of the story more than makes up for it." This is a real sci-fi masterpiece!"
- "Flowers": An urban emotional drama full of style
When Wong Kar-wai encounters an urban emotional drama, what kind of sparks will collide?
The answer is: a poetic and stylish "Flowers".
This adaptation of Jin Yucheng's novel of the same name, set in Shanghai in the 90s of the last century, tells the emotional entanglements and ups and downs of several protagonists. On the surface, this is an ordinary urban story. But under Wong Kar-wai's lens, everything becomes extraordinary.
The delicate emotional portrayal, the unique narrative rhythm, and the textured pictures all highlight Wong Kar-wai's unique aesthetics. Even a shot of drinking coffee can capture an evocative charm.
Although some viewers complained that the soundtrack was suspected of imitating the "War of Succession", the business war scene was a little naïve. But despite the flaws, "Flowers" still successfully created an intoxicating urban legend.
As one viewer said, "I still prefer this style of drinking coffee to "The Long Season." The performances of Hu Ge, Ma Yili and others are the icing on the cake and deserve five-star praise!"
- "Going to a Windy Place": A light-hearted and interesting workplace drama
When you think of workplace dramas, what comes to mind?
Double-cross each other? Infighting? Or is it bitter and bitter?
If so, then "To a Windy Place" will definitely surprise you!
This light comedy starring Liu Yifei and Li Xian shows the ups and downs of workplace life in a relaxed and happy way. In the play, the hero and heroine meet in the rural poverty alleviation in Yunnan, and they have to face various challenges at work and deal with subtle emotional entanglements.
But what is surprising is that the plot does not fall into the cliché "love brain" mode. Each character's actions are logical, with both ideals and ambitions and realistic considerations. Even some funny scenes are naturally integrated into the plot, and they don't feel deliberately artificial.
What's even more rare is that "Going to a Windy Place" also cleverly integrates the customs of Yunnan, making the whole drama full of fresh and natural atmosphere. No wonder some viewers sighed after watching it: "Not only did I get the CP, but I also want to travel to Yunnan!"
Each of these five dramas has conquered the audience with its unique charm. They prove that any subject can be shot with new ideas as long as you create it with your heart.
