CCTV's "Thrush" was reported by netizens!said that the three views of the plot were not correct, and asked the radio and television to be removed from the shelvesOnce, spy war dramas were a magnificent business card of domestic dramas, and masterpieces such as "Secret Calculation" and "Latent" came out one after another, creating a new era of domestic spy warfare.
However, spy war dramas gradually parted ways later, although "Before Dawn" and "Cliff" were exciting, they lacked depth and did not have satisfactory endings, although "The Pretender" was a sensation, it lost the characteristics of spy warfare.
Until 2017, Liu Yunlong appeared again and created the pinnacle work "Kite" in the field of spy warfare, sublimating spy warfare from a simple plot to a deep reflection on human nature, and once again composing the legend of spy warfare. However, after "Kite", the spy war theme is difficult to find.
The creation of spy war seems to have entered a bottleneck period, although the momentum of spy war dramas has risen sharply in recent years, but "Infernal" 49 points, "Thin Ice" 57 points, "Stalker" 52 points, both failed to reach the passing line.
However, CCTV's recently launched spy war drama "Thrush" suddenly soared, and the ratings remained high, with an average of 229, the peak broke through 32, higher than "Hurricane". However, the reviews are almost all bad, and some viewers even called for it to be taken off the shelves, what kind of turmoil did "Thrush" experience?
"Thrush" tells the story of the 50s of the last century, in order to protect the "Water Drop Project" from being destroyed, the public security sent police officer Pang Hongmei (played by Peng Xiaoran) to protect the returned expert Ji Danyang (played by Liu Xueyi), and the two fought with the enemy to fight wits and courage.
It can be seen from the synopsis that Ji Danyang's identity is extremely important, however, at the beginning of the series, it is difficult for the audience to feel the importance of the public security to experts.
The public security officers who were preparing to connect with Ji Danyang at the train station realized that there was an enemy and opened fire without saying a word, so frightened that Ji Danyang slipped away alone and went to the next joint location.
Ji Danyang finally found the agreed place, and when Pang Hongmei arrived, he found that the enemy had arrived first, gaining Ji Danyang's trust. However, Pang Hongmei stood there without saying a word, only saying "I am the one who can protect you with my life", looking pale and powerless, how can people believe this?
Subsequently, the enemy confronted the public security head-on, Pang Hongmei finally gained Ji Danyang's trust, but let him escape alone at the next moment, why didn't he send someone to protect him?In the end, Ji Danyang sat alone on the steps in the rain, looking gloomy.
Ji Danyang, who was about to successfully take back to the mainland, was held by passers-by with wildflowers picked by the roadside. Knowing that Ji Danyang's identity was very important, he did not survey the surrounding environment, so that the enemy had an opportunity to hide in the abandoned building and snipe, almost killing Ji Danyang.
The bullet almost hit Ji Danyang, and only Pang Hongmei rushed out to chase after him alone, but the others stood motionless. Pang Hongmei saw the enemy like a scalper saw a red cloth, and rushed forward without hesitation.
The leader sent her to follow Ji Danyang's side closely to protect the expert, but Pang Hongmei disappeared as soon as she saw the enemy's "whoosh", leaving Ji Danyang alone at a loss. She was busy for a long time, but she didn't catch any enemies, but lost the expert.
The expert didn't seem to care about his identity, knowing that there might be enemies around him, but he wandered around, stationery stores, bookstores, food stalls, everywhere.
While walking, I met the girl who sent flowers, and the girl was afraid that others would not know Ji Danyang's identity, so she introduced Ji Danyang's expert identity to people on the bustling street.
So many people can't find a normal thinking, how can such a plot be embarrassed to call it a spy war?No wonder viewers have asked to be taken off the shelves.
In addition, the costumes and casting of "Thrush" are also full of slots. First of all, look at the costume, and make people play at a glance.
As soon as the public security chief played by Kong Lin appeared, what did it mean that his hair was curly hair?Moreover, she also wears heavy makeup, which is more like a modern aunt, and she can dance square dancing when she changes her clothes.
In the play, Kong Lin's style is relatively "earthy", and the heroine Peng Xiaoran's style really makes people "play". The tights she wears, the puff sleeves are designed to form an inverted triangle, the pants are raised high, and the whole figure is concave and convex, and the proportions are coordinated.
Although it looks good, the girl next to her is wearing normal clothes from that era. Even with a white shirt, Peng Xiaoran is wearing puff sleeves.
In contrast, other people's ** is loose, but Peng Xiaoran's is tight and fitted, wrapping a good figure. Such costumes are so exquisite, it's like filming an idol drama.
Looking at the casting again, I can't stand it at a glance. Especially the heroine Peng Xiaoran, her face has no wrinkles, and she is as full as a dummy, such a "technological face" is too dramatic.
Moreover, Peng Xiaoran's makeup is very meticulous, the eyelashes are too exaggerated, the nose shadow is too obvious, and with bright lipstick, it is too eye-catching, not at all like the public security soldiers of the year.
The most important thing is that Peng Xiaoran's blind acting skills are not good, her eyes are dull, her eyes are not focused, and there is a lack of emotional changes in any scene, so she can only read her lines dryly.
The male protagonist Liu Xueyi also failed to avoid being bombarded, obviously a returned expert, but it made people mistakenly think that he was a beauty blogger, looking at how meticulous his makeup was. It is no wonder that Liu Xueyi can become the male lead, the actor in "Thrush", and his eyebrows are the most beautiful.
All in all, "Thrush" may have its merits, such as the novel anti-special setting, the ups and downs of each episode, and the outstanding performance of the old drama bone Ding Yongdai.
But the flaws are also obvious, the set and costumes fail to fit the background of the times, and the casting of the actors is even more problematic.
At present, "Thrush" is about to usher in the finale, what is the audience's evaluation of this drama?It's curious.
