Among the IP works that have attracted much attention, "Breaking the Sky" has always been very popular. Although the previous drama version starring Wu Lei had a mediocre reputation, it also made more people have a certain understanding of this IP.
Some people commented that "Breaking the Sky" is simply an IP manufacturing machine, and countless works have been derived, and they are all directly displayed. And there are quite a lot of restorations to the original work after film and television. With the support of this IP popularity, the film version of "Breaking the Sky and Awakening" starring Ma Boqian and Li Jiuxiao has aroused widespread expectations.
However, only a short period of time, the outside world's evaluation of this work has varied greatly, resulting in a great differentiation in word-of-mouth. Some viewers gave good reviews, saying that some parts were highly restored, as if they were back in **. While other viewers with different opinions believe that the roughness of the production is disappointing, the costumes and the use of special effects are very rough, which is completely incompatible with "sophisticated", and is even inferior to an ordinary online fantasy masterpiece.
Many people have to admit that "Breaking the Sky Awakening" does have a lot to improve in terms of quality. In addition, the outside world is also hotly discussing the scale of **, and I wonder why it was criticized when it was first launchedAs one of the leading actors, Hu Jing and the male protagonist Ma Boqian appeared in some large-scale scenes, coupled with the large age difference between the two, which seemed a little incompatible. may be because of these reasons, it was criticized by the audience for being unbearable, and it was even better to expose the flesh directly.
As a high-profile IP, people thought that they would see a more exciting presentation after making it into a film and television work, but they didn't expect that every work that came online was a little bad and could not meet the audience's expectations at all.
Of course, there may be many people who have not paid attention to any film and television works of "Breaking the Sky" before, and have only heard about it from the side. Then I saw Ma Boqian, Zhang Hanyu and others starring in the movie "Breaking the Sky and Awakening", so I wanted to come in and take a look. Wow, at a glance, I can't help but sigh, it's already 2023, and the special effects production is still so rough?
At the beginning of the film, the special effects are used quite frequently, which is simply a "studio shooting texture", and it doesn't look real enough. Obviously, the characters on the screen do not fit into the overall background, as if several unrelated objects have been inserted into a painting. This visual difference can create the feeling of being in a play. Even so, if the special effects can be made more sophisticated, the existing quality will be greatly improved. Unfortunately, the use of special effects is unbearable.
Battles between two sides, flying doomed, or some kind of rising smoke, these special effects should be very mature in today's film and television production, but in "Breaking the Sky: Awakening", you can find a lot of omissions that should not appear. As the audience said, this feels like a work made ten years ago, and it has only been produced in the past two years, how can it not be compared to a low-budget online movie?In addition to the worrying quality of the production, the film also has some failures in terms of cast selection.
There is no problem with the interpretation of the role of the leading actor Ma Boqian in the urban drama, but when he first appeared in this film, whether it was the image or the costume style, he did not look like the male protagonist, but more like an unknown supporting role. The powerful actor Zhang Hanyu also participated in it, his acting skills have always been very stable, and his skills are also very solid. However, due to the limitations of the role setting, his performance in the costume image is slightly cramped, and there is no sense of substitution at all.
There are also some young actors, whose acting skills are even more questionable, and the whole film is full of noisy sounds, which look like they are messing around. Due to many reasons, the quality of "Breaking the Sky and Awakening" has dropped sharply, coupled with its own hard injuries, it has become very impossible to become popular with the hot IP, which is why many people give it bad reviews.
Speaking of "Breaking the Sky and Awakening", in addition to the criticized production and special effects, there is another very important reason to sigh, that is, the "scale design" is really dazzling. In the film, Ma Boqian is only 27 years old, and Hu Jing, who plays a supporting role, is 45 years old, and the age gap is not small. Of course, the two are not playing as a couple in the play, but rehearsing a "healing" scene, but this kind of scene looks more and more embarrassing.
By the way, when it comes to Hu Jing, many people may have a deep impression of her. In "In the Name of the People", she played the role of Gao Xiaoqin with a variety of charms and outstanding temperament, which made "Director Qi" fond of it and intoxicating.
And in this film, Hu Jing plays Yunzhi. According to the description of **, this character should also have a beautiful appearance and a hot body, blended with an ethereal beauty.
However, when Hu Jing appeared, dressed in white, and then participated in a fierce fight, the originally expected aura seemed to be gone. Perhaps because of her age, Hu Jing's face looked a little swollen, and she had already lost her youthful breath. When rehearsing the action scenes, her expression also looked a little too forceful, and it looked very unnatural, as if she was forced. Let's go back to the issue of "scale", there is such a paragraph in the film:
Xiao Yan, played by Ma Boqian, heals the seriously injured Yunzhi. In order to achieve better results, the two of them stripped naked and used the so-called "Burning Technique**" to make the essence of the herb repair each of her meridian valves.
The next day, Yunzhi woke up and saw the naked Xiao Yan, and then saw that she was penniless, she was very angry, so the two started a chase in the jungle ......
This scene looks a little confusing, if it weren't for the design in the original book, it would really be mistaken for the two being in love. After all, this is a highly sought-after IP, not an online drama to win attention, is it really necessary to design it like this?
There is no need at all, using this "scale" to perform, but it will make the audience feel the deliberateness of the production team, deliberately creating topics and deliberately looking for traffic, so as to drive the popularity and ratings of the work.
A good work does not need to rely on the "nakedness" of the actress to improve reputation and grades, especially in the work "Breaking the Sky and Awakening", this change is not commendable at all. It's time for the production team to rethink.
Of course, the quality of the work itself is also difficult to guarantee. It may be easy to succeed just by relying on high-quality IP, but in fact, more exquisite production is needed. We should also be more careful in the selection of actors, and use acting skills to ensure the authenticity and vitality of the role.
