In recent years, the rise of period dramas such as "The World" and "South to North" has aroused enthusiastic popularity among the audience.
Whether it is the older generation looking for traces of the past in the plot, or the younger generation feeling the depth of the flow of the times, the charm of these works lies in their deep feelings for their family and country, which touches the heartstrings of countless people and makes people cry with emotion.
As the years go by, the emotional resonance spans generations.
Although some period dramas have good intentions, not all of them can touch the heartstrings of the audience.
The frequent presence of silicone and porcelain elements, the monolithic mode of costumes and props, and the superficial performance caused by the actors' over-focus on appearance made it impossible for the audience to fully engage.
Although the ratings are impressive, word-of-mouth has suffered a serious blow and has fallen to a low point.
With the influence of veteran director Zheng Xiaolong and the superb acting skills of superstars Bai Jingting and Jin Chen, plus the blessing of powerful actors Ding Yongdai and Liu Jun, "South to North" has undoubtedly become a high-profile drama.
However, as the story progresses, so does the audience's heated discussion.
Jin Chen is known for his unique beauty and profound dancing talent, like a bright star.
However, in the scene integrated into the period drama, her light does not seem to fully fit the atmosphere of that era, and it seems a little out of place and difficult to take charge on her own.
Under the face lens, the originally full face was thinned to the point of withering, and the tall but too abrupt nose bridge looked dazzling.
A mouth that is out of alignment, and the facial expression that is as stiff as a sculpture, all reveal an unnatural state.
Despite being dressed in vintage clothes and her hair in playful braids, her face is unique, with a sense of technology that is not hidden by the marks of the times.
This beautiful face can be called the finishing touch in both fantasy idol dramas and modern urban dramas, but if you insist on placing it in a retro period drama, it will inevitably look out of place and cannot be integrated into the character group, making it difficult for the audience to invest in the plot, how can it not arouse the question of "play"?
Although Jiang Yan has won the love of many fans with her frank and unpretentious personality, her ** seems too tense and her smile is a little stiff.
When the camera is focused, the plastic sensation on her skin is particularly strong, and although the big eyes, erect nose bridge and sharp chin are modern, they make netizens question the coordination of her facial features, which seems to have become the focus of some negative comments.
Although the goddess Zuo Xiaoqing's acting skills are highly recognized, her facial state in the play, especially her swollen face and overly conspicuous double eyelids, has aroused regretful comments from netizens, which seems to have become a small flaw in the play.
Although this ingenious work has attracted much attention, the audience's perception has gradually become subtle due to the silicone faces used by individual characters, and although the ratings are impressive, in the minds of the audience, quality and aesthetics have long become intangible criteria.
"Dog Left Run" won a full house as soon as it was broadcast, and when I first heard its name, the audience may mistakenly think that it is a classic anti-Japanese war drama, but in fact, it exceeded expectations and was amazing.
However, some of the actors in the play work too image building, which looks pretentious in front of the camera and loses their natural charm.
Qin Hailu, as a representative of the acting school, her performance charm is indisputable, however, the porcelain white teeth that flicker in every smile can always inadvertently become the focus of the audience's attention, and people have to be attracted by this unexpected visual surprise.
Although Qin Hailu's face is well-maintained and has no wrinkles, when showing the historical atmosphere of the Anti-Japanese War drama, such an image seems to be out of touch with the era setting of the series.
Zhou Xianxin's smile was extremely stiff, as if it was a mechanical smirk, and the expression of the smiling flesh was chilling, and the audience couldn't help but feel a chill.
Liu Lin's performance in "The Glory of the Fathers" is like a vivid mark of that simple era, forming a strong contrast with the surrounding environment, every detail, from the clothing to the body language, to every wrinkle on her face, vividly interprets the authenticity of the character, which makes people shine.
In the spring of 2023, the high-profile TV series "The Road of Life" will arrive as scheduled, which originates from the original work of the literary giant Lu Yao, and is also a blockbuster recommendation of ** TV station.
However, despite the high attention, as soon as the show debuted, it failed to avoid heated discussions and criticism from the audience, and even attracted calls for it to be taken off the shelves.
Although the cast includes powerful people like Chen Xiao and Li Qin (such as bright stars), as well as supporting roles such as Lin Yongjian and Li Wei that should not be underestimated, whether it is the restoration of the character modeling or the fit of the plot adaptation, it is far from the original work, which makes the audience's perception gradually become embarrassing that is difficult to ignore.
In order to deeply reflect the simplicity and innocence of rural life in northern Shaanxi, the characters in the play uniformly chose a natural dark complexion.
Although the swarthy male characters appear more masculine and healthy and beautiful, the ** of the female characters is also as deep as ink, as if it is a healthy bronze after being nourished by the earth, showing a resilient life style.
In the dark of night, each shining porcelain tooth is as striking as the bright moon, and they contrast with the dark skin, which is eye-catching, and the nickname of the Internet"Glow-in-the-dark teeth"This is how it was born.
Even the veteran actor Liu Wei shows his white snow teeth in his smile, which is as fine and dazzling as a facet.
Against any dimly lit background, his technocratic teeth become the center of attention, like a bright point of light.
Surprisingly, the plot is seriously out of touch with reality. In the original work, Gogarin was plagued by poverty and self-esteem, but the drama version portrayed him as a rich boy who drove a bicycle to show off.
It is obviously an era when walk-behind tractors are rare, but there is an untimely van tractor scene in the play, which is really unbelievable.
The disconnect between the old actors telling the story in dialect and the young actors in Mandarin makes it difficult for the audience to immerse themselves as if they were watching two different dramas.
They failed to dig deep into the internal connection between the characters and the times, and only imitated period dramas in form.
When the characters lose the soil of history, how can they not make the audience feel a sense of disobedience? No wonder it was ridiculed on the Internet as "unworthy of the name".
"Pearl River People" has aroused strong attention as soon as the unique period drama with Cantonese culture as the main line has been unveiled.
However, it is regrettable that some viewers are unwell during the process.
From Zhang Han's deep expression, can you imagine that he is savoring the elegance of Cantonese cuisine?
Perhaps that's why people joke that "the charm of Cantonese cuisine has gone beyond lightness".
Gazing at Yang Shuo's wrinkled face, would you believe that he can vividly interpret the charm of a 17-year-old boy's character?
Surprisingly, the heroine's unique image breaks the convention, and as a bright star in the Cantonese opera industry, she prefers androgynous dress, which is undoubtedly appreciated.
However, as a lady of the opera, she feasted without saluting in the presence of guests, which seems to lack respect for traditional etiquette, which seems to be a bit surprising.
Frankly speaking, after watching this play, I did not feel the profound influence of culture, but vaguely captured some doubts and misunderstandings about Cantonese culture.
The starlight collision of Reyiza and Wang Yang, "Fearless" triggered a craze of attention as soon as it appeared, but in the process of in-depth pursuit of the drama, the audience questioned many incredible plots and rough details in the play, which made the plot sometimes seem too far-fetched, and the overall look and feel was slightly bloody and shallow, which was a little difficult to accept.
As a female protagonist in the legal profession, her unique personality does not seem to be bound by traditional calmness, and her actions are often unexpected and eye-catching, leading the audience to pursue wisdom that breaks through the rules in the midst of confusion.
The tears that can't be released, like emotions trapped by invisible shackles, not only face the audience's doubts about their acting skills, but also unexpected gains"Our Lady"This accolade in the challenge.
While Wang Yang's confidence and charisma are unique, and his drag has a unique appeal, audiences may expect to see more diverse roles that break through the stereotype of "Wang Yang-esque" performances.
In the face of various surreal elements in the plot, the controversy continues to escalate, especially for the obvious illegal situation in the play, which has aroused widespread doubts from the public, as if the performance of law and law enforcement agencies in the work does not seem so in line with reality, which is thought-provoking.
The dramatic expressions of the actors are beyond imagination, and the hard injuries in the plot are like flaws under the microscope, which makes the audience wonder, can this drama still challenge our bottom line of acceptance? "
Oh, oh, can it be more bizarre? "
The success of the first two seasons has made the third part of the series highly anticipated, but surprisingly, despite the strong momentum in the early stage, the final word-of-mouth has declined significantly, and the audience's response has shown a clear polarization trend.
The adaptation is in trouble, deviating from the original and lacking a sense of realism, and the actors' performances are disappointing and even regressive.
The audience strongly criticized that the plot was just an empty shell of the characters and had no depth with the original work.
The character creation of the second male Lei Dongbao suffered a heavy setback, and the once highly appreciated heroes and heroines Song Yunhui and Yang Xun were greatly reduced in their charm in the subsequent chapters and could not reproduce their previous glory.
The plot is a little thin, and the plot treatment lacks logic, for example, in the face of the scene where Song Yunhui was beaten, the family ignored the law and easily waved the wine bottle in front of the police.
The extraordinary abilities of the protagonists make them unimpeded and unrealistic. Too many idealized plots lack the resonance of the times, which surprises and disappoints the audience.
In the current trend, many works that seem to be period dramas have come to the fore, although they are under the banner of period dramas, but they are actually staging ridiculous and indefinable new genre dramas.
In the hearts of the audience, excellent film and television works value a solid plot structure and character creation that resonates with the times.
Perhaps the appearance of the actors is not the focus, they do not pursue a gorgeous appearance, the key is whether they can perfectly integrate into the historical context of the story.
We pursue natural truth, and do not want to encounter frequent porcelain teeth and silicone exorbitant excess"Beauty show", I don't like the kind that is out of touch with the plot and too pretentious"Superpowers are handsome"。
Let's immerse ourselves in the story and enjoy the narrative that makes sense.
They are looking for artworks that are both deep and emotional, not empty and high ratings, not just superficial works that blindly chase commercialization. We reject pseudo-idol dramas dominated by traffic stars and ruined reputation.
What they crave is a work of warmth and connotation.
It is expected that the creation of period dramas in the future will pay more attention to the in-depth shaping of actors and the exploration of wonderful performances, rather than relying too much on stereotypical and stereotyped character settings. Let the audience's attention focus on the delicate interpretation of the actors.
The charm of the times has gradually drifted away in period dramas where technology is overly integrated, and the original sense of purity has been lost, which is a loss for both the series and the audience.
