It's no secret that a great title can sometimes have an unexpected impact.
What people didn't expect was that at the end of 2023, there will be many "inexplicable" drama titles in the domestic drama market.
First of all, the two big dramas of ** TV station "Ask the Boundless" and "Thrush", "Ask the Boundless" is relatively better. ** I said a sentence back then: "Ask the vast earth, who is the master of ups and downs", although the title of the play is a bit deliberate, and there are errors in grammar, but fortunately there is a certain relevance.
However, "The Thrush" is incomprehensible, it has neither a clear theme, nor does it seem to have a deep meaning at the moment, is it just because the heroine draws a pair of eyebrows?
Just now, I didn't fully understand the meaning of "thrush", and another drama with a very strange name appeared - "Off the Rails", which is in the cool house**. I thought that this drama would bring a lot of surprises to people.
However, when I browsed through the comment section, I found more and more negative comments: "unattractive", "incomprehensible", "acting is not up to standard"...
It wasn't until I watched the first two episodes of "Off the Rails" that I understood why viewers were saying more and more negatively about it.
The story development is completely illogical and far from the real world.
As a "crossing" and "suspense" drama that will be adapted from **, it is understandable that there are some unconventional plots in the plot, after all, this kind of drama focuses on the elements of time-traveling.
For example, the story begins in 2025, and the heroine is speeding through a vehicle on a bridge across the river. Soon after, a car accident occurs, a sports car flies off the bridge, and the heroine faces an existential situation. However, at a critical moment, the heroine has a time travel.
Next, the timeline comes to 2012, and arrives in a parallel world.
However, although the time travel is the setting of an urban drama, some plots are significantly different from reality.
For example, in the world of 2025, the heroine was originally a wealthy young lady, and there is a clear difference in social hierarchy between her and her best friend. However, the incredible thing is that these two people have become best friends, and what is even funnier is that her best friend and his boyfriend secretly go behind her back.
Not only that, but the heroine actually broke her indifference to her boyfriend for the sake of her best friend and boyfriend.
After her best friend disappeared, the heroine did not take measures to call the police or ask for help, but told her father as soon as possible.
Then I didn't know why I believed Xu Tezhu's words, I had to drive through the cross-river bridge, otherwise I couldn't cross the past, right?
Immediately afterwards, the heroine suffered a car accident because of the excessive speed. When the sports car fell from the bridge, there was a mysterious background**:
I will move forward with perseverance, I will move forward with perseverance, and never stop.
Wrong, are you saying that at such an existential moment, setting up this inspirational background** is for the purpose of humor?
In addition, the plot of the male protagonist's experience in the hospital is very confusing.
He took his friend to the hospital in the case of a friend falling from the upper floor. When the doctor asked about the situation, he replied as follows:
My friend fell from the stairs and asked the doctor to save him. ”
Please ask the doctor to save him, he is my closest companion.
I'm sorry, but I almost couldn't help but laugh when I saw this.
Can you not answer with such careless lines, but tell the doctor not to save your closest friend?
Is that the only way you can express your sense of urgency?
Frankly, a good actor doesn't rely on exaggerated lines to express his concern for his friends, but shows that emotion in his body language.
Look at our male protagonist, in addition to the exaggeration of language, he is a little out of touch with reality, and there is no superfluous expression on his face, but isn't he your best brother?
Moreover, in this drama, the male protagonist wears a suit almost the entire play, except for the opening scene.
Here's what he looks like when he's riding a motorcycle
His appearance is indeed attractive, but is his behavior a little excessive?
A formal suit locomotive, how can it not be said to be handsome? Isn't it convenient? It's really speechless.
When he meets the heroine, he behaves like this.
This suit, which is worn all the time, is both too ostentatious and out of place with the people around it.
Epilogue. Honestly, Off the Rails also has its strengths.
In the play, the male protagonist is handsome and chic, the female protagonist is beautiful and moving, and the plot setting is very unique. It no longer uses the traditional one"Crossing plus system", or"Crossing the Jiaxiu Immortal"Instead, the timeline is shifted to another parallel world from a few years ago, which is very commendable.
However, the unique setting of "Off the Rails" does not mean that the plot is "ridiculous".
It's not surprising that Off the Rails gives viewers the impression that the plot is too outrageous and far from reality, so it receives more and more bad reviews.
I hope that this drama can improve the reputation when it first aired in the future.
