People say that with a good start, you're halfway through, especially for TV shows. If the series is very gripping at the beginning, then the ratings in the later stages have a basic guarantee. Obviously, the opening of "Seamless" is not so wonderful, and even criticized by many viewers: First, the opening is the scene of the heroine Guiwan's sacrifice, which is a bit abrupt. And the image processing is too artistic. The snow-covered streets, the nobles wearing red cloaks, the bullets in the printing hall, the turn of 360 ° gracefully fell to the ground... The sacrificial scene treatment is too artistic, even if it is to highlight the importance of the heroine, but it is still a bit untrue. The second is that there are too many characters in the first three episodes, and the story telling is also a bit chaotic.
It's a good drama that's been poked in the opening. As long as you have watched the first three episodes, slowly sorted out the relationship between the various characters, and understood the story, you will find that this drama is actually very good.
If you are accustomed to the routine of telling stories in order, then the storytelling method of this play may be difficult for you to accept for a while, thinking that the editing of this play is chaotic, telling the story that is happening now, telling memories for a while, and inserting memories into the memories. But if you have a clear idea, and you can also watch and understand brain-burning dramas such as "Inception", then this drama is actually very much in line with your taste.
Xiaobian successfully entered the pit after watching the update of all the episodes, from a personal point of view, this drama is very exciting, Xiaobian likes it. Although the current Douban score of the drama is not high, the editor feels that this drama is more exciting than its sister article "The Pretender".
I saw many viewers on the Internet complain about the multi-clue storytelling method of the show, saying that this way told a story to pieces. Xiaobian thinks it is not. In fact, if you look at it with your heart, the context of the whole story is actually very clear. The use of different ways of narration, flashback, and interpolation actually designs every suspense just right.
When all the fog slowly clears and the truth slowly emerges, you go back and think about every laying and suspense in front of you, you will feel suddenly enlightened, and then understand the subtleties of the screenwriter and director. There is a saying that "the text seems to look at the mountains and does not like the peace", if this story is told in the normal order, it will be mediocrity.
Secondly, the actors in this drama are particularly good. Although the costume of this drama has been complained about by many viewers, the actor's acting skills are all online, especially Guiyi, played by Hu Haifeng, which is simply radiant in the play, not only overshadowing the male protagonist Qin Junjie, but even Lu Yi, who plays the senior group, can not hold it at all.
The characters of your wing are perfect. The screenwriter gave this character all the good qualities. As a MEMBER of the Communist Party of China who broke into the top echelons of the Kuomintang, he reacted quickly and wisely, especially in the section where He forced the killing of Commander Wu, had courage and strategy, was righteous and awe-inspiring, and killed people in a calm conversation and laughter, which made everyone present shudder.
As the son of your family, he respects and obeys his father and mother. For his half-brother Petty Bourgeois, he rewards and punishes generously, enwei at the same time, is extremely fond of the concubine, and has a deep affection for his lover Fang Yifan... Guiyi's human setting is so perfect, coupled with Hu Haifeng's amazing interpretation, it is simply impossible not to enter the pit.
Iron will, such as fire temperament, chivalrous righteousness, iron man tenderness, especially the assassination of the official residence, embracing the concubine to resist the enemy, handsome to the explosion. This person is so perfect that he can't speak. Overshadowing other big and small roles in the play, even Lu Yi, who plays the senior group, has lost his sense of existence in the play.
I can't help but think of a saying: a good actor achieves a good role, and a good role will also make a good actor. Hu Haifeng met "Guiyi" is a kind of luck, and the character of Guiyi was played by Hu Haifeng. I hope that Hu Haifeng can take advantage of this drama to make more good actors who focus on acting be valued and paid attention to, and only in this way can the film and television industry develop more healthily.
