When it comes to popular works of military-themed dramas, "Soldier Assault" will inevitably come to mind.
Its success depends not only on the plot, but also on the wonderful performances of a group of wonderful actors.
This drama gathers powerful actors, such as Duan Yihong, Zhang Yi, Wang Baoqiang, etc.
The tough-guy temperament and the fighting spirit of perseverance and perseverance that they show make people feel their love for the army through the screen.
After this drama, although many works with similar themes have emerged, there are almost only a handful of works that can really surpass it.
The actors who play the role of the military are no longer those tough guy actors, but some handsome young guys with long hair.
Once put on the military uniform, they not only exude the temperament of a soldier, but even eclipse the masculinity of ordinary men.
Especially these actors, when they played the role of soldiers, their performance was surprising and unspeakably embarrassing.
Because it is known as "Bright Sword 3", "Thunder Warrior" attracted widespread attention before its release.
"Bright Sword" shows striking similarities with this drama both in terms of the background of the era and the character of the actor Wang Yunshan.
However, the audience was originally full of expectations, but they were extremely disappointed when they saw Zhang Yunlong's performance.
Although he is the head of the independent troupe in the play, his brown hair and heavy makeup make it easy to feel like a play.
The military uniform on his body was even brand new, neat and flawless, and there was no sense of war at all.
Zhang Yunlong couldn't show the spirit of a regiment commander even on the battlefield, he was completely a cream boy, which made people feel insecure at all.
Maybe it's because he has acted in too many romance movies, he either throws charming eyes or plays a small temper in "Thunder Warrior", which is completely different from the serious image of a soldier, and almost makes the audience mistakenly think that the channel has been changed wrong.
His shiny hair, smeared with hairspray, seems to be ready to participate in the shooting of fashion blockbusters at any time, and his head can be broken and bleeding, but there can be no mistake in the hairstyle.
Zhang Yunlong's performance was completely inferior to Li Yunlong played by Li Youbin in the film, which was a complete failure.
Li Youbin often plays a grizzled and dirty image in the film, and this kind of performance that disregards the image can best show the temperament of a soldier.
In romance dramas, after all, Zhang Yunlong is more suitable to play Xiao Xianrou, because he can wantonly paint heavy makeup, so as to attract those girls.
Wu Qilong, as one of the former members of the Little Tigers, has a certain influence on the audience.
After he transformed into an actor, he successfully gained a foothold in the mainland entertainment industry with his outstanding performance in "Step by Step".
Perhaps because he received too much praise, Wu Qilong wanted to try to challenge more challenging roles.
He chose to star in a movie on the theme of the Anti-Japanese War, playing the role of Lei Zifeng in "Towards the Fire", but he didn't expect it to backfire and failed.
Lei Zifeng transformed from a bandit leader to a member of the Eighth Route Army, and in the process, he should have experienced many things and experienced great changes.
However, his inner self is always ignored by everyone, and people only see his beautiful side on the outside.
After the war, his hair remained neat and fresh, bound by a large amount of hairspray.
He was dressed in a cool leather suit, and despite the constant artillery fire, he was not affected in the slightest, as if he had just come out of the washing machine.
Perhaps Wu Qilong felt that leather clothes alone were not enough to highlight his handsomeness, so he simply rode a Harley-Davidson motorcycle and played with the Gatling gun.
But judging from the movements of his strafing, it is clear that he does not know how to use it at all, and the whole process is quite awkward.
Lei Zifeng likes to be cool no matter what the occasion, even on the battlefield.
When his comrades were frantically strafing the enemy, he behaved with style, and I really don't know how long such an image can last on the actual battlefield.
It's no surprise that viewers are constantly complaining after watching this TV series.
Wu Qilong's performance in the play did not show the image of a soldier at all, he was just playing cool from beginning to end, which left a deep impression on the audience.
In 2019, Lu Han participated in the filming of the movie "Shanghai Fortress" and played the main role.
This one costs 3The blockbuster of 600 million yuan was highly anticipated, but the box office was unexpectedly bad and disappointing.
Lu Han's role in the film is that of a big hero, but when he debuted, the audience's deepest impression was his forehead blocked by his heavy bangs.
Is this image suitable for playing the military of the country?
Lu Han has a typical image of small fresh meat, and his sunny and handsome appearance has nothing to do with his tough image.
After he was paired with a melon seed face, the audience kept complaining, questioning whether it was possible for him to become a big hero with such a weak and uncontrollable style.
As an artist who once came from a traffic niche, Lu Han will naturally carry a deep idol baggage.
Perhaps because he couldn't let go of his body, his role in the film became the biggest failure.
Even the director couldn't help but start reflecting at that moment, admitting that he really ignored this.
This sci-fi war film is different from other genres of movies he has starred in, and that's what we want to shoot.
Changing an actor to play may not guarantee a box office hit, but at least it will not be a box office of less than 200 million and 30 Douban score.
In "Thunder Warrior", the image of a soldier played by Gao Weiguang also made his previous good popularity almost disappear, except for Zhang Yunlong's performance, which is difficult to look at.
He plays the role of division commander Guo Xunkui in the film, and his favorite thing is not to talk about military affairs or battlefields, but to apply hairspray, smoke cigars, and drink coffee.
He was able to maintain his composure no matter the occasion and performed very well.
Even on the battlefield, he was able to smoke his cigar calmly, completely unaware that the other party might find their tracks.
As a leader, he hardly had to venture to the front lines when war broke out, just sitting in command to take charge of the overall situation.
However, he didn't care about the heroic killing of the soldiers on the battlefield, but cared about the cup of coffee in his hand, and felt that there was too much sugar.
Gao Weiguang's deliberately created petty bourgeois image can only be said to be really not suitable for presentation in such works.
His acting career stalled for a while after this production, both as the director's responsibility and as a fault for the mistakes he carried.
Hawick Lau has always shown himself as a boss, and his elegant temperament and handsome face are really a perfect interpretation of the image of a domineering president.
However, it wasn't until 2013 that he took over the movie "Bloody Island", in which he played the role of an instructor named Mike. He occupies the leading role in this anti-Japanese drama.
He originally expected to show dazzling charm and show the majesty of the instructor, but he didn't expect that as soon as he appeared, he immediately brought the audience a sense of closeness similar to an idol drama.
The people are obviously homeless, and they can't even solve the problem of food and clothing.
As a soldier, he struggled with his hairstyle in the office, and even talked about love despite the suffering of the people.
Hawick Lau seems to have been immersed in the hegemony mode, and he is reluctant to accept his role as a soldier.
Therefore, he always put on a contrived serious expression, which caused the audience to choose to leave.
Even Yang Mi was very disappointed with his performance, especially when Hawick Lau expressed his wish that he could pay more attention to artistry.
In the show, Yang Mi bluntly countered that many people may consider themselves artists, but they may be just insignificant people in the eyes of others.
In 2017, Ye Ting's descendant Ye Daying criticized Ou Hao, who played Ye Ting in "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", which attracted the attention of many netizens, who believed that Ye Daying was prejudiced against Ou Hao, and expected that Ye Daying would change his opinion after the film was released.
Ye Daying published a short article on the matter, explaining that he was only targeting the incident itself, not involving individuals.
At present, young actors have become the mainstream of the entertainment industry, and their salaries are as high as tens of millions, without their participation, it is difficult for film and television works to gain a market.
He pointed out that the director of this film used major historical events to make money for the sake of making entertainment films.
The society of the crew and Ou Hao's side is more inclined to them because of such fierce rhetoric.
However, it wasn't until after the movie was released that people realized what he said at the time, "You guys can't stand up straight with your legs, and the girlish little fresh meat in the woman is humiliating Ye Ting?" "Not deliberately provocative, but purely factual.
Among the younger generation of actors, Ou Hao's strength is not inferior, but when playing the role of Ye Ting, he is obviously a little powerless, and his performance is slightly deliberate.
There are several clips in the film, and Ou Hao's performance seems a bit excessive.
After Chiang Kai-shek's coup d'état, his face flushed, he pointed to the table, and almost shouted the words "then hit" in an angry voice, apparently not calm enough.
When he rode into the city, it was obvious that he should have shown the demeanor of a dignified and steady general.
However, the audience can only see that his face is as handsome and uninhibited as ever.
He especially doesn't feel like a general on the battlefield, and when he arranges his collar with his left hand and shines with a gun in his right hand, it makes people feel that the aura of an idol is too heavy.
In the minds of the audience, Zhang Weijian has always been a quirky, humorous image.
He has played roles in many classics, but there is actually no noticeable difference in terms of character setting.
However, in the movie "Wutai Mountain Anti-Japanese Legend: The Female Soldier Platoon", he played an unprecedented image of a soldier and achieved a self-breakthrough.
It seems that only the military uniform on his body is the only proof of his military status.
He still maintains the image of his previous film and television dramas, playing tricks to his heart's content, walking with a wooden stick in his mouth, his hands in his pockets, and even sitting with a casual and chic appearance. In addition, he is still the same.
Although the plot of this drama is ridiculous and ridiculous, Zhang Weijian's performance in it is unacceptable.
His eyes wandering, his greasy appearance is too flamboyant, and his well-trimmed mustache always makes people feel that he lacks the temperament of a soldier.
Not all actors are able to successfully interpret the role of a soldier, and if you don't have enough talent and skill, it's best not to try to challenge the role lightly.
The audience's eyes will be hurt, and their own reputation will suffer.
Fortunately, now that the relevant authorities have taken measures to rectify the anti-Japanese drama, such a glaring performance is unlikely to appear again at least in the future.
