Liu Shishi finally returned to the costume drama after six years, and the sword in red was eye-catching as soon as she appeared.
Liu Shishi's influence should not be underestimated, and after the launch of "Yi Nian Guan Mountain", the popularity soared rapidly and became a new hot spot this year.
The audience also has a very high reputation for this drama, and they have praised Liu Shishi's acting skills, thinking that her performance in this drama is very good, and the role she created is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Ancient puppet dramas need some thrilling scenes to enhance the ** experience.
With its tight rhythm and distinct feminine consciousness, this work has won unanimous praise from a wide range of audiences. In many aspects such as plot, character creation and theme expression.
It was voted the best of the year for all of its talent and unique insights. Can you believe it?Today, let's explore whether this drama is really that good - "Yi Nian Guan Mountain".
Among the many comments, there is one that stands out in particular, and that is normal . This evaluation also caused a hot search, which can be said to be very unique. It is precisely because of the foil of peers that normality has become an important advantage of domestic dramas now.
Even though the show isn't too out of the ordinary, it can't be said how good it is. The story is set in a fictional era where a group of heroes rise together, and Liu Shishi plays a powerful female assassin named Ren Ruyi.
In order to highlight his extraordinary skills, the indispensable fighting scenes in the play. However, for those highly praised fighting scenes, Uncle Yu really can't give praise.
Some people may say that the camera movement is normal, but compared to "The Dream of the Spring Boudoir" at the beginning of the year, it may be a little bland. After all, its bouncing camera movement was eye-catching.
"Yi Nian Guan Mountain" is not flawless, and there are still some common problems in domestic costume dramas, which cannot withstand careful scrutiny. Especially in the fight part, the excessive use of slow motion seems to enhance the shock of the scene, but in fact, it covers up the lack of skills.
Liu Shishi and other actors' performances are mostly just showmanship, a person floating in the air, unbound by gravity. In order to create a visual effect, props such as large backlights and hair dryers are used throughout.
The two danced together, and as the dance steps turned, the camera followed.
How can people not feel embarrassed by such a scene?Can this really be considered normal?There is no such excitement as in martial arts dramas.
In "Knight's Journey", the use of slow motion is not limited to fight scenes, but runs through all passages and occasions throughout the play. The male protagonist stands at the gate of the prison waiting for his brother, with slow motion and strong backlighting, creating a mysterious atmosphere of picking up brothers or seeing them for the first time.
The companions of the male protagonist often use fast-slow screen transitions when showing their talents. It's dazzling.
When the team was formed, their performance was amazing. In just one minute, five people are shown multiple times in various poses, each time as if in slow motion**.
The male lead excels on women's topics, and his classic lines make people think deeply. He stressed that women's courtship needs to be respected and not taken as a joke, especially in public.
Why do you want to force a woman to get married?Is it really that good to get married?Women's lives should be in control of themselves, not by others.
At the moment, these lines don't show much new meaning, just common and ordinary expressions. And some of the plots are confusing and incomprehensible.
Ren Ruyi listened to the benefactor's teachings before his death: "Don't fall in love with a man easily in your life, but you must have a child of your own." After that, it was decided to make the male protagonist the father of the child and tried to have a child with him by various means.
This bridge section has been used by many netizens to emphasize reason
Uncle Yu has a different point of view. Whether it is to show the innocence and ignorance of the heroine, or to pave the way for the follow-up plot, it is not a clever way to create. You may even fall into the trap of false feminism. The screenwriter of "Yi Nian Guan Mountain" also created "Menghualu" in the past. Although it is impossible to generalize, it is difficult not to make associations.
Therefore, this kind of performance that is slightly lacking in excellence cannot be called the norm. However, in addition to the above problems, the most disappointing thing about this drama is Liu Shishi's performance. Liu Shishi's beauty is unmatched, and the opening dance in the snow is amazing.
The director has a unique eye and is well aware of Liu Shishi's beauty, so he skillfully uses slow motion in the play to delicately show her stunning beauty.
Although Liu Shishi's appearance is excellent, her acting skills lack depth. In this drama, Liu Shishi's performance has not made any progress, but there are many problems.
The most criticized thing is her non-acoustic performance. When I was talking about "Yanbei" before, I mentioned that the use of dubbing is a feasible way to ensure the overall artistic expression of the work.
Cai Shaofen in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", her voice expression level is not ideal, so it is necessary to use dubbing.
In "Farewell My Concubine", the Peking Opera part of Cheng Dieyi played by Leslie Cheung was dubbed by actor Yang Lixin.
Although these dubbings played a role in the icing on the cake, there was no problem with the actors' own performances and line expressions. However, Liu Shishi is an exception. Her line skills have always been unsatisfactory.
In the few works that use native materials, the problem of her lines is particularly obvious. For example, in "Embroidered Spring Knife", after she played Miaotong was injured, her lines were vague and unclear, and she could no longer be explained by just using the injury as an excuse.
Liu Shishi showed excellent acting skills in "Embroidered Spring Knife" and "Golden Years". In "Embroidered Spring Knife", the character she played was emotional, although every word of her father was clear and clear, the name in Jiang Nansun's mouth directly became a blur. This expressiveness is impressive.
The Golden Years": Liu Shishi's Ren Ruyi in the play is a ruthless assassination master. However, she was unexpectedly reduced to the lowest level of the Order's Assassin who needed to be seductive, and the character should have been in a completely different state.
Although Liu Shishi tried to show her coldness and softness through the difference between laughing and not laughing in her performance, she did not succeed in matching with the dubbing.
When showing her cold side, the dubbing voice is low and the words are neat, like a quick knife. In the performance of her delicate side, the dubbing is like being wrapped in honey, sticky and seductive.
In order to win the heart of the male protagonist, Ren Ruyi decides which type of woman he likes, so as to cater to his tastes. So, she tried to show a variety of different temperaments and let the male protagonist choose at will. However, if I'm the male lead, I can't choose any of them. Voluptuous orchid?
Dignified lady. A glamorous beauty.
Liu Shishi's neck always remains firm, whether it is a play or a literary drama, no matter what emotion she is, her neck is always in this state. This causes her to be rigid at all times, without any expression of emotion.
This is true even when sleeping on the shoulder of the male protagonist. makes people feel very embarrassed at all when they don't feel the warming of the relationship between the two.
Liu Shishi's eyes are like Mu Ne's neck, although she was praised for her "acting skills of a tear", but in fact she did not really move people's hearts.
Yes, the visuals are excellent, but they lack real emotion. Looking at Liu Shishi's expression again, although her tears were praised as moving, her facial expression was stiff, and she seemed to be just focusing on how to show the flow of tears.
In a plot, Ren Ruyi faced a scumbag who was treacherous and killed his friend. However, Liu Shishi's expression did not show sadness or hatred, but instead a kind of focused gaze.
It's no wonder that some viewers praised her for her blind acting skills.
The clip that has been widely praised online is that Ren Ruyi is pinched and wounded, and although the pain is unbearable, he still has to hide his identity. However, from his eyes, expressions to movements, these did not reach the expected level of excitement, let alone show the complex emotions in his heart.
Liu Shishi's acting skills don't seem to have made any progress in the past few years. In her early masterpiece "The Legend of Sword and Fairy III", her performance was praised as full of spirituality.
In the drama "Step by Step", her performance can also be called the pinnacle of her career. However, 12 years later, she has never released a work worth mentioning.
Her acting skills seem to have stagnated, and only the same wooden is left.
Liu Shishi's choice of work types seems to be a bit single, she has been mainly active in the field of idol dramas for many years, whether it is costume dramas or modern dramas, she mainly focuses on love themes.
This repetition and limitation seems to have put her in a predicament from which she cannot escape. Apart from her beautiful appearance, there seems to be no other merit worth mentioning.
Liu Shishi is not an exception, most of the actresses in 85 flowers have adhered to themselves for many years and rarely break through. How so?Because they are in the costume drama market, acting skills are not the key to success.
The actor Liu Yuning once expressed his views on costume dramas, he believes that the success of costume dramas depends on appearance and character settings, and acting skills are relatively less important.
This view may seem ridiculous at first glance, but it actually contains profound truth. Taking Liu Yifei as an example, the actress who was labeled as "attaching importance to appearance and ignoring acting skills", after starring in "Dragon Babu", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", people have stereotyped her image of a fairy who "does not eat fireworks in the world" for more than ten years.
Liu Yifei's performance on the big screen has attracted much attention, her good looks are impressive, but her shortcomings in acting skills have gradually become apparent. Although she attracted a lot of attention with a still of Diao Chan in black in the movie "Bronze Bird Terrace", she was still criticized for being a wooden beauty in terms of acting skills.
Yang Mi's performance in "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" is equally impressive.
The root cause lies in the distortion of the costume idol market, which pursues traffic, appearance and character settings too much. Under these pressures, acting seems to have become less critical. Even, as long as the new generation of actresses has a slightly different performance, they will be wildly touted as "acting explosions".
Despite the popularity of fans, there are also many viewers who do hold this opinion. This makes these works, which are not worth mentioning, have a lot of popularity.
As a result, a vicious circle is formed: actors don't need to bother to improve their acting skills, as long as they are good-looking, they can be smooth sailing. The audience is also influenced by the aesthetics and standards of such works.
The main creator does not need to seriously improve the script and shooting, and a set of industrial advertising style assembly line remains unchanged year after year. The lively background** and unrestrained slow motion have become a panacea for ancient puppet dramas.
This seemingly harmonious scene is actually a poison that erodes culture. is like the praise of "Yi Nian Guan Mountain", isn't it because the audience reluctantly chose the sub-optimal option under the bombardment of bad dramas?
And this choice is not a subconscious compromise?When standards continue to slip and compromise becomes the norm, I am deeply concerned that future audiences may have a hard time understanding what is truly "good".
