New drama starts

The urban emotional drama "Incomparable Beauty" starring Chen Xiao and Gu Li Nazha was officially announced on August 28. It has been two and a half years since the drama was completed; Under the "crisis", through the presentation of their life, career and love in many aspects, focusing on the reality of today's cities, and directly hitting the story of the "youth crisis" in the workplace.
Starring Tian Xiwei, Ao Ruipeng, Bai Bingke, and Zhao Shunran, the web drama "Happy Sedan Chair", a remake of the classic series "Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair", is scheduled to be broadcast exclusively on Youku on August 28 .
"Scorching Wind"
In the ancient puppet and fairy tales where childish love is everywhere in the summer, the direction of the script and the logic of the characters are as normal as "Lotus Tower", and it has become a clear stream. No one jumps back and forth for love, and there is no The hard work of the audience to guess and become a part of the couple's play.
Although in the introduction to the story, I saw the love story between the female officer Mu Zhuohua (Jing Tian) and the prince Liu Yan (Feng Shaofeng), but after watching about ten episodes, Mu Zhuohua is concentrating on his career, and the script The focus is also on the issues that the two of them face together, and they don't fall in love as soon as they come up, which makes people feel good. Needless to say, Jing Tian and Feng Shaofeng's acting skills, even with dubbing, the two of them are definitely much better than many young actors in terms of character performance.

Of course, there are also flaws: First, the dubbing by all members makes the series cheaper, especially with the filter turned up to 800 times, the overall makeup looks low, especially the audience is very familiar with the appearance and voice of Jing Tian and Feng Shaofeng. The drama filter is not big and uses the original sound, which is very embarrassing. The second is that Feng Shaofeng came to play this role, and the painting style jumped from ancient puppet to ancient costume (middle-aged) conspiracy. It is not that the latter is not good-looking, but it is actually different from the ancient puppet, and it is also different from the overall content and style of the series. Same. The third is because the essence is still an ancient puppet, and the degree of cleanliness is limited. If you focus on the relationship between these characters, you will feel boring. The overall production is like an assembly line, and there is no breakthrough.
"Legend of Magpie Knife Gate"
Uncle Benshan's filming is still the same. If you want to see the breakthrough of the Ivory Mountain Group, you can rest. This film is more like the Ivory Mountain Group playing a costume script. Although everyone's role has changed, the people are still the same. That person still has the taste of Ivory Mountain, which is more suitable for audiences who already like this kind of chatter.

But Uncle Benshan is still serious about polishing the script. The main line of the story is quite interesting. In order to find out the truth about the traitors in the court, Ximen Changhai, the head of the Magpie Sword Sect, asked his twin brother Ximen Changzai, who is a cook, to replace him and promised to give He is looking for a wife. Due to the extremely different personalities and acting abilities of the two people, this misplaced setting allows the characters to have the ability to promote the plot. If the cook is the head, how can he recruit apprentices? How to get along with the original apprentice? If you are timid and afraid of getting into trouble, what should you do if you have to face the big conspiracy of the court? Making a fuss about "misplacement" is a common practice in comedy, which can produce countless jokes, especially a group of Ivory Mountain groups were arranged as supporting roles. Furthermore, chattering in the Northeast can produce a huge amount of language baggage, which is dazzling.
In short, don't get entangled in details, dynasties, and realism. What you watch is to have a happy meal. To a certain extent, it somewhat restores the audience's feeling of nonsensical costume comedy Hong Kong dramas of the last century.

"Apocalypse"
This play is adapted from the novel of the same name. After reading the novel itself, the traces of the adaptation are obvious, but it has been modified very cleverly. Some inexplicable and deliberate places have been deleted, and some parts that make the plot more reasonable have been added.
This drama is about the disguise of urbanites. Under the disguise, everyone has their own unknown real face. Looking at the glamorous investment bank jobs, lawyer jobs, and rich wives, when they turn around and go home, they are all Exhausted, although everyone faces different life problems, the pain and exhaustion are similar, no one is enjoying it, everyone is suffering.
What kind of feelings can be produced under this disguise? To be honest, Han Dongjun and Cai Wenjing are not considered very sexy among actors, but this show shows the ambiguous tension between the two, especially the character of Han Dongjun, whose appearance and personality are very suitable for a suit and leather shoes working in an investment bank The character design, I can see that the author's DNA has moved. It is very interesting that the two people are evenly matched in the early stage and do not bow their heads to each other. It is the love of adults and the pull of adults.
Stills of "Apocalypse"
The series is not long, and the content is very restrained. The director Li Mo has directed "I'm Fine in a Foreign Land" and "Sanyue Has a New Job".
"Traces of Disappearance"
The setting of the dual heroines is the main point of view. It is indeed a very normal drama with not many slots, and it can be watched smoothly without the desire to change channels.
After all, it is a case-solving and criminal investigation story, and it is still a unit nature. It is easy to read, and the reasoning process is quite reasonable, especially the forensic assistant. It did not give the heroine a golden finger. She made mistakes, was also confused, and had a stagnation stage. All are proceeding in an orderly manner. The first story is relatively long, and there are about two or three episodes in the following cases. This kind of unit crime-solving drama is very good, and it is suitable for watching one or two cases when you are free.
Stills of "The Lost Trace"
But I have to say, after all, it’s an account-sharing drama, Fu Huadao and the script are still rough. The main line of the two heroines’ solving the case is not concentrated and clear enough, and the character setting is relatively rough. On the lens, it distracts people's attention, and the editing seems a bit rough, and the consideration is not fine enough. The acting skills of the supporting actors in each case are uneven, and sometimes they make people out of the play. In addition, the cases are not considered creative, and several of them can find exactly the same stories in old criminal investigation dramas.
If you are not interested in ancient puppets in the summer, and you don’t like the recent realism of young and middle-aged groups, you can watch this one.
