Before the romance drama "Love at First Sight" was launched, it was regarded by many netizens as a potential stock to be exploded, thinking that it would be another "BG light" contributed by the pants family after the "Si Teng" at the beginning of the year.
There are two reasons for this.
First, the popularity of the starring passers-by is quite good.
"Li Dogzi" Chen Xingxu VS the new small flower Zhang Jingyi, one has an East Palace filter, the tall figure is very suitable for the Republic of China warlords, a naturally recognizable appearance, and the style of Miss Shanghai Beach is also very compatible.
The good image of the starring passerby is popular and popular, which is a necessary condition for the success of the sweet pet drama, and the success of the casting makes "Love at First Sight" save a lot of obstacles to chasing the drama, and the acceptance of the new CP is also much higher.
Second, the quality of Reuters in "Falling in Love at First Sight" is really too good.
Casually take a set of Reuters pictures to see, are full of atmosphere, whether it is the fit between the two actors and the Republic of China style, or the sense of CP between them, can get a very high score, the audience can not fault.
Kiss drama Reuters is to stir the hearts of many netizens of the girl, the Republic of China big miss VS domineering young marshal, only this pair of newly formed CP unbroadcast has a brushing trend, strongly elevating the public's interest in the work.
Because the two protagonists reuters are too atmospheric, even the Mary Sue novel network articles are frequently "stolen" the use of the show's tidbits, these tweets are very understanding of netizens' hobbies, and the pictures they favor are basically blockbusters.
The official announcement of "Love at First Sight" is also very powerful, the posters released are the core to highlight the sweet pet CP sense, the male and female protagonists gaze at the spark tension full of tension, quite "too late to say I love you" character.
All the information seems to point to "Falling in Love at First Sight" will make the audience re-feel the "upper head" charm of a wave of sweet pet dramas, however, after the release of the main film, the drama has become a "fraudster".
How strong the sense of atmosphere is, how the quality of the positive film is to surprise the audience, it is basically the same as the story background of "Too Late to Say I Love You", and the actors are not inferior, but the overall quality, but even to get a low-grade title is barely enough.
In the early stage of the seven episodes, the problem of excessive use of filters in domestic dramas (especially idol dramas) was taken into account, among which the "miserable white filter" that grinded the skin color of all the staff into cold white skin was the most lethal, and the "Jun Jiuling" in the early stage of the pants family was a typical representative.
The "miserable white filter" will not only make the character's appearance unnatural, but also "grind" off the detail recognition of the actor's face, make the facial features become "blurred", and many performances that require micro-expressions are also greatly reduced.
For example, Chen Xingxu, the male protagonist of "Falling in Love at First Sight", his facial perception in the play is obviously not as natural and three-dimensional as in the "East Palace" period, and the original highly recognizable face of the main drama Miaozi has become a less vivid idol actor in a second.
Moreover, I don't know if it is too seriously affected by the filter, many shots of Chen Xingxu still have a sense of edema, many netizens ridicule Chen Xingxu and Wang Zijian "bumping face", although a little exaggerated, but not completely hard and concave.
The static picture of the heroine Zhang Jingyi is relatively not so much affected by the filter, but the lip color that originally did not fit the style of the time is more prominent after skin polishing, resulting in many shots where the audience can't help but look at her mouth.
The old actors were also deeply affected, "Luo Lao Crooked" Cao Weiyu of "Yunnan Worm Valley" came to "Love at First Sight" as if he had done photon skin rejuvenation, the veteran male god Xiu Qing, under the rendering of the dance lighting, Bai's seven words were almost unrecognized.
You know, Xiu Qing was once a tougher and more recognizable costume than Chen Xingxu, and now his temperament is still there, and his figure is quite outstanding, but the perception is obviously not as good as before.
This is a phenomenon that makes the audience helpless, whether the film and television drama uses the "tragic white filter", "underworld filter", "studio style filter" or grinding skin and beauty, they are repeatedly scolded, and the audience's criticism has never stopped.
In the early stage, there were cases such as "New White" and "East Palace" that were scolded to temporarily replace filters, and when ancient dolls such as "Jun Jiuling" were launched, excessive filters were also one of the most criticized problems, but the more the film and television industry scolded, the more fiercely used.
Poor visual effects, the audience does not like, such a creative way, in the end, what is the meaning of existence?
In the case that a large number of viewers have already produced filters PTSD, "Love at First Sight", which still abuses the tragic white filter, cannot give extra points, but takes the lead in reducing its own value.
If "Love at First Sight" only has the problem of "miserable white filter", it can still reverse the audience's impression with the charm of the plot, but unfortunately, the slot point of this drama is not only a filter, the makeup, set, and plot are flawed everywhere.
Female character makeup is generally modern, lacking a bit of Republican style, and male actors have adopted a large number of fan bangs that are incompatible with the background of the Republic of China, which not only affects the sense of substitution, but also does not look good.
Even the high-value Chen Xingxu has not been able to control the fans' bangs very well, and the most attractive thing in his work is the large back shape that completely exposes the face, which shows that the actor and the role fit highly, but the stylist is not always online.
Because after the big back shape, he quickly changed back to the fan's bangs style.
The plot that can determine the basis of the work's reputation can only be described by a "soil" word.
"Soil" is a neutral word for film and television works, if it can be "soil" to the extreme, it can also bring the effect of elegant and popular appreciation, but the "soil" of "Love at First Sight" is purely unable to keep up with the current aesthetic greasy suspension.
In the play, the male protagonist Tan Yinglin is the son of a former warlord, the female protagonist Mu Wanqing is the daughter of the president of the Shanghai Chinese Chamber of Commerce, the opening male protagonist conspired to seize power, the female protagonist returned to her hometown to bury her mother, and the two accidentally met on a tanker.
Because the female protagonist broke the plot of the male protagonist, she was threatened by the other party to disguise her fiancée, which sounds like a dangerous plot of sword fighting, but in the process, it is all a variety of "bang, bang, bang" for the service of sweet pets.
This design, which is widely used in sweet pet dramas, runs through almost all the scenes of the male and female protagonists, and the average "bang" in the first four episodes is at least once per episode, and the location is not limited to beds, elevators, sofas...
In the scene of the appropriate sense of atmosphere, the male and female protagonists can appropriately "bang", can be su qi, forced to "bang" in the atmosphere that is not in place, but can only leave a hard embarrassment, cp sense has not yet been created, greasy will arrive first.
In addition to the obviously hard and embarrassing industrial saccharin of the main CP, the shooting method of the entire work of "Love at First Sight" has traces of old-school earthy production, and all the "young marshals" with excessive content can take the idol drama cat step at every turn.
The character design, the X mode and the line style are a bit like "Meteor Garden", if you don't know the actors, say that this is an old drama from 10 years ago, and some viewers may believe it.
How can such a "soil" plot support the reputation of the work?
Every time the sweet pet drama explodes, some people will question whether the sweet pet drama is "brainless", because it has too many illusory "sweets" that are higher than reality, and it seems that there is not much technical content, and it feels that as long as the actors have a sense of CP, they can be sought after.
In fact, no matter how good the actor, no matter how eager the CP, if the production is not careful, the script is not novel and has the ability to stir the audience, blindly relying on the accumulation of clichés and rotten stems, relying on follow-up production, it is impossible to succeed all the time.
The same is the romance theme of the warlord young marshal vs the big miss of the Republic of China, the classic work "Too Late to Say I Love You" is not only the collocation of the male and female protagonists is enough, but also the sense of plot substitution and BE aesthetics are also in place.
Moreover, this 11-year-old Mary Sue romance drama, in the creation of the warlord battle story line, is not as small as "Love at First Sight", two deep-rooted warlords can actually be controlled by the male protagonist's minute-by-minute mutiny.
The tone of the two dramas is also the distance between adults and children, one is stable and mature although Mary Sue, and the other is only Mary Sue without celebrity background, coupled with the direction of the oil and soil story, which affects the perception.
With the popularity of the starring actors and the sense of CP and atmosphere created by Reuters, "Love at First Sight" originally had an absolute natural heat and could be stable, but unfortunately, a good hand of cards was beaten by the producer.
The contrast between high-scoring Reuters and low-quality positive films also makes it a fraudulent "film" criminal, and it may be a little difficult to become a fan drama, and I don't know if the producer regrets not doing the content with heart today.
