"Turandot" was released——
I didn't understand, but I was shocked.
The golden lineup, the top matching scale, but what is this?
"The First Incense" was released——
Still the golden lineup is highly configured, and the onlooker reviews are much more interesting than the movie.
Not only has the film circle recently received fancy spit output from small broken stations and Douban reviews, but many recently broadcast episodes are also completely "thought to be the king, and the result came to a bronze" large-scale rollover scene.
On the contrary, there are also small transparent dramas that silently start broadcasting and won praise, moving forward and harvesting a ton of tap water to support.
Come and go, diss or pick, follow the small gathering and nag...

"Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog"
"Family Ethics Drama wrapped in a suspenseful shell"
Last year's word-of-mouth "Mist Theater" was finally released again, in view of the previous "Hidden Corner" and "Silent Truth" word of mouth, the final poster of "Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" has been stared at by everyone as soon as it came out. It was only with the broadcast of the finale that Douban's rating fell all the way to 5.7 to vent everyone's disappointment. It is not that everyone's expectations are too high, nor is it that "pearls and jade are in front" so it seems that it is not uplifting enough, and from the perspective of the play itself, it will indeed make people feel unspiritual.
The poster reads "Everyone is a corner of the family", and the story is brought in from the unsolved octagonal pavilion in the nineteen years, and several corners of the Xuan family are pulled out one by one. Starting from the inertial thinking of watching suspense dramas, the promotion process of case detection must be the main line of the whole drama. As a result, Curiosity began to chase after Xuan Zhen, who died 19 years ago, Zhu Shenghui, a rich second-generation gangster who suddenly died, and Mu Ge, who mysteriously disappeared, and these three people also had a direct relationship with the main character Xuan Nianmei. However, after a few episodes, none of the three cases have been further promoted or substantively advanced. So what are these episodes about? In talking about the character relationship between the Xuan family and other major characters, in order to create "everyone can be a murderer", it feels as if every character is very important - Xuan Liang, Xuan Min, Xuan Min's husband, Yuan Fei, Xuan Zhu, Ding Julie and Zhou Yamei of the Kun Opera Troupe, Zhu Shenghui's parents Zhu Wensheng and Qiu Wenjing, ah, as well as Mu Ge's mother, nervous class teacher Tian Haipeng...
Complex character relationships are nothing for suspense dramas, as long as the design is good enough, clever enough, and the most important thing is to be able to make a strong push on the main line. Although the substantive role of some character relevance can be seen later, at least in the first few episodes, some of the characters' explanations are really mysterious, which directly leads to the audience feeling that deviating from the main line is not interested, "the branch line is huge and complex but does not promote the main line plot", "it should be called "The Story of the Old Xuan Family", "The Family Ethics Drama with a Suspense Shell" and such complaints come.
If the intention is to transfer the case to a multi-year unsolved murder, the impact on a family is also understandable. However, as a suspense drama, the promotion of the case must still be done, and the emotional contradictions and changes between the family are felt by the audience in the process of revealing the truth, and such a topic is also revealed in "The Hidden Corner". If you pull out too many lines to do each character in the family alone, it will naturally make the audience intuitively feel that it has nothing to do with the main story, why jump out to tell "other people's" things, and the insertion of "invalid events" that have nothing to do with the main line will make people feel "too slow". For example, the matter between Xuanzhu and her boss and husband will feel a little inexplicable.
In the final analysis, the focus of the audience of suspense dramas is the unique personality that this type of drama can bring to everyone, the clever amount of information provided, the suspense setting that can really lift the appetite, and the unguessable ending.
In addition, the weak detection process of the case is also a hard injury, and this is precisely the point that the audience who watches the suspense drama is most addicted. Not to mention how many people came to see this drama for the old paragraph, from the plot alone, everyone also hopes to see the criminal police captain threatening. As a result, yuan fei "did nothing" in the first few episodes, but the novice policeman became the only person everyone seemed to be able to count on. If he can find some unique clues because of his mastery of certain aspects of knowledge, it is also acceptable, but some ordinary clues can not be seen by a group of old criminal policemen and he is very prominent, if it is not a logical problem, it can only be said that the "supporting role aura" is also too big.

"No Rain in Godless Land"
Load X, pretend to be tender, pretend to be a ghost
To tell the truth, you don't know how much I am looking forward to "No Rain in the Godless Land" (hereinafter referred to as "Godless") - the "comeback" of the idol drama Prince Xiaozong Zheng Yuanchang, who has not appeared in Taiwanese dramas for many years, although it is only a friendship cameo, it is also very expected after all. What is more interesting is that the two major "princes" of Taiwanese idol dramas that year, Zheng Yuanchang and Xiaomei He Junxiang, played this kind of ghost drama in the revival drama, and Xiaomei played Zhong Kui in the "Sky Ranger" that was broadcast this time last year, and the response was also slightly general.
Then, how powerful is the team of "Godless". The first is the team of "Want to See You", the production company is Taiwan's current first-class TV series production company Sanfeng, the screenwriter is the brain-opening god Jian Qifeng, who has built the multiple crossings of "Want to See You", and the actors have also found Ke Jiahui and Yan Yulin in the starring role of "Want to See You", and even Xu Guanghan has to come to make a cameo! The supporting roles are the new Golden Bell and Taipei Film Awards double winner Zhong Xinling, and Ke Shuqin, who is also the queen of Admiralty Television, and so on.
At the beginning of the episode, Zhong Xinling came to a sensational performance of the post-visual level, but it made people feel as if something was wrong? It turned out that I had been immersed in Zhong Xinling's "How My Mother-in-Law Is So Cute" and even the recent cameo in the comedy performance of "Common Girl 2", which was so strange and discordant in this kind of drama that built a qingqi "universe" concept that needed to be redeemed at the beginning.
Yes, yes, weird and good outfit X, are my two summaries of this just-launched drama.
Speaking of weird, Fu Mengbai is actually a Taiwanese actor that I have admired and optimistic about in the past three years, and his performance in movies in recent years has been good, but a closer look at his resume found that in addition to the film being several starring actors, the TV series almost did not have the experience of being the first male lead ("Love Outlet", which quietly started in Taiwan this summer and has no influence, is one of the two male protagonists). Don't think that if you have been on the big screen and then return to the small screen, you can "support" a drama, which is actually very difficult. Fu Mengbai's appearance and body are very good, and his acting skills are actually passable, but I don't know why he plays this rain god, it is strange.
What's even more strange is that the heroine Zeng Zhiqiao really doesn't know why the casting chose her? It's not that she's not good, but I feel that as long as she appears in the shot, it is so awkward, if it is in the same frame as Fu Mengbai, it will be more embarrassing than multiplied by two. But in fact, Zeng Zhiqiao's acting skills are not so bad, a few years ago to watch "The Brilliant Era of The Rookie", ah, "A little rest and stand up I love you", ah, I think it is quite comfortable, ah, why to "Godless", it has become a "casting" disaster? After thinking about it for a while, I still think that this role is too inappropriate for her, to say something more hurtful (anyway, it has hurt people), Ke Jiayi, who is three years younger than her, plays a 20-year-old girl so naturally, but as soon as she wears a student uniform, she is obviously tender. No way, she is suitable for the appearance of a light female temperament, this kind of TV series that requires a lot of girlish drama, too unsuitable for her. In fact, among the actresses who look at the whole of Taiwan, there are several people who are suitable for this role.
Even Zheng Yuanchang came out so strange, makeup and clothing style is really a failure, the key is to struggle with the shape, looking more like a fish in the throat.
Well, this leads to another summary, "Good X.". In the past two years, Taiwan drama has really been trying to make various attempts and breakthroughs to change the single genre of only idol dramas and Hokkien shroud long dramas in the past, and "Godless" undoubtedly wants to highlight the worries about today's environmental protection problems and the discussion of people's inner worlds through a concept of "gods under the mortals", and to build a TV series "universe" of its own.
However, the skill is not enough, but also to blame the chaos, but also to take a very local route (such as the implantation of Amei elements), after a pot of stew, can only use the "X" high-cold route to face the confused audience.
Some people say that "Godless" is a bit imitating the 2016 Korean drama "Lonely and Brilliant God: Ghosts", you think too much! The tone of "Ghosts" is warm and romantic, and "Godless" that pretends to be a ghost is not a kind of drama at all.

"The Sinking of Japan"
Want to see some real science fiction, is there any?
In the corner where no one cares, Appletv's masterpiece "Base" has dropped to 6.4 points on Douban, and this TV series that claims to be based on isaac Asimov's science fiction novel "Base Trilogy" can be said to have nothing to do with the original. Although it is a science fiction theme, the whole drama uses a lot of Western religious beliefs to think, perhaps Europeans and Americans seem more comfortable and easier to replace and accept, after all, human history is too thick, we usually only habitually accept the piece that is closer to our lives, such as ancient Chinese history, modern history, modern history... Burning so much money, the result is to use science fiction to repeat the history of Europe in the cosmic environment. Isn't it better to say that history is not in love with it, let alone that it is still connected to the english level four or six. Therefore, the reason why "Base" has almost no discussion heat after six episodes is probably because it is not understood, and the threshold is too high.
Let's move our attention to the more familiar Asian region, the immortal masterpiece "The Sinking of Japan" created by Komatsu Sakyo has also ushered in a new adaptation of the film, TBS this time invited Oguri Toki to take Matsuyama Ken repeatedly plus Kagawa Teruyuki and Apricot, the cast is quite luxurious. The original novel is mainly about the changes in the earth's crust caused most of the Japanese archipelago to sink into the sea, the huge earthquake and volcanic eruption have turned the Japanese people in the future into the protagonists of the apocalyptic theme, and the popularity of the Mesozoic actors led by Oguri Shun is also very high, the face is familiar + there is no threshold for understanding, this drama is completely a hot trend (refer to the "Squid Game" from red to purple). Therefore, before the start of the broadcast, the expectation of this drama was the highest, and as a result, I watched two episodes and found that it seemed to have nothing to do with the plot in my impression! The drama mainly tells the story of the use of a new type of energy called COMS to extract in order to avoid the intensification of the greenhouse effect and the lack of carbon energy, which has caused the accelerated deterioration of the seabed environment.
There is no earthquake, no seawater back-irrigation, and there is no shocking 45-degree tilt of the Tokyo Tower plus Roppongi building collapsed in the film adaptation, only the non-stop meeting, the discussion of whether to use this new energy, the dialectical view of the various forces pulling each other's hair... Netizens complained very accurately, ""Japan Sunken" should be renamed "Will Japan Finish Today". On the other hand, the director of this drama is Shunichi Hirano who filmed "Bureaucratic Summer", and the screenwriter is Hiroshi Hashimoto of "Gorgeous Family", the style of this combination is indeed more power plot drama, and there is no science fiction element is purely normal.

"My Name"
Logic follows feelings, don't ask if there are bugs
Since its launch on September 17, the series "Squid Game" has become the most popular series in Netflix's history, with 111 million fans, and the highest rating topped Netflix's "Today Ratings List" in 94 countries/regions around the world. When the heat swept the world and the traditional culture was exported, this achievement and influence also made more viewers pay attention to the cooperation between Netflix and South Korea. In the information of the follow-up Netflix key episodes released on "TUDUM: Global Fan Event", the South Korean part is still eye-catching, and it is expected that the release frequency of one in January may continue to blow up the streets until the first half of next year. "My Name" in October, the fantasy thriller "The Minister of Hell" starring Yoo Ya-in, Park Jeong-min and Kim Hyun-joo in November (directed by "Busan Trip" director Yeon Sang-ho), and the sci-fi thriller "Jing Hai" starring Kong You, Bae Doona and Lee Joon in December will conclude the 2021 Netflix Korean drama.
This series of platoons has made "My Name" broadcast at this time highly anticipated: female action, revenge for the father, female version of Infernal Affairs, "Human Classroom" director Kim Jin-min's new work... I'm looking forward to it! Quickly brushed up - well, expectations are high...
The production reflects the proficiency of Korean film and television industrialization, in just 8 episodes, the relationship entanglement of the previous generation and the revenge of the heroine looking for her own name are completed, there are female growth, there are plot reversals, fast pace, cool action, character abuse, song burning, the female protagonist Zhiyou (Han Suxi) The CP atmosphere is strong, there are gangsters and fighting girls who are also friends to save each other, there are iceberg novice female police and warm male veteran criminal police partners, the first three episodes are cool, as if riding on a speeding train! After three episodes, a lot of logic was abandoned, and the cool point was still the same, but it became a derailed train.
The whole process is pushed and pulled by emotion, and there are plot bugs everywhere: the little brother who was punished by the drug lord Choi Moo Jin (Park Hee Soon) suddenly turned into the leader of the drug trafficking organization who was enough to confront the former boss to come back to take revenge (Choi Wu Jin was fierce and fierce, knowing that this little brother had ill intentions, he actually let him do this to be stronger); the undercover police station's zhiyou, during the undercover period, only covered his face with his helmet and contacted Choi Woo Jin in front of the veteran anti-drug police Quan Bi Dao (Ahn Po Hyun) and Cha Qi Hao (Kim Sang-ho); the old policeman knew the information about the deceased and his daughter. But he never recognized Zhiyou; Zhiyou was wandering in pain for the road of revenge, and Hedao wanted to persuade Zhiyou to turn back in time, the original psychological drama of the scene was very heavy, and the painting style suddenly turned into two injured people "racing" to come to a passion play, and the physical fitness was really good (later learned that this passion scene was temporarily added by the director); At the end, forced BE, Cui Wujin used the way of not killing Zhiyou to stimulate Zhiyou's desire for revenge, stimulating the other party to send himself away with a set of fighting moves, and properly cultivated his nemesis.
Despite many plot loopholes, the drama has achieved the third best results in daily broadcasting in Netflix, and the rare female action theme, the character setting that gathers the good elements of the golden age of Hong Kong cinema police films, the cool film mode of strong emotion and hot blood action drama promotion, and the actor's performance are still a good look and feel for this drama.
Spit back to complain, Park Hee-soon's underworld boss Choi Moo-jin finished quite charming, Ahn Pu-hyun's police can also be remarkable, the newcomer heroine Han Su-hee is really a treasure, can play the little flower that beats the woman is particularly rare, in order to increase the muscle of 20 pounds for this play, complete the high-density fighting action training, prove himself with actions, let the director have more choices when shooting, many action scenes because the actor himself can personally play and play a colorful there are a variety of lens expressions.
Most of these pictures full of strength and beauty, highlighting the courage and tenacity of the characters, were only shown in male characters in the past, but this time they were shown by Han Suxi in the play, which was in great contrast to her previous pure and desired youthful and beautiful image. The excellent character performance of the main actors also makes the audience more tolerant of the plot bugs.

"A Woman"
A bonus
Recently, both the film market and the TV drama market have examples of flipping over with the configuration of Wang Fried. Sitting in the last row of the movie theater watching "The First Burning Incense" go through the subtitles, Xu Anhua, Wang Anyi, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Du Kefeng, Kwong Zhiliang, Wada Emi, Huang Hai, this is simply the configuration of living his life, how did I watch more than two hours of loneliness? Fortunately, in the past year, I have put forward a constraint standard for myself, no matter how ugly the drama is, I am not allowed to leave the scene halfway, and I must respect the movie ticket and respect the filmmaker. But in fact, this is just to embarrass yourself, because the perception is really too much like a needle felt.
This is true of the film industry, and it is also true of the television circle. Some long-awaited lineup dramas will definitely be very respectful and use the big curtain to watch the drama. However, every time the first episode is broadcast, it only increases the emotion: It is difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice, why can't she make the script good and solid again? Do you really think your director is a Nezha? Step on a hot wheel to fight monsters. Oh, you can't say the same, even if the audience criticizes the drama is not good, the general creator's attitude towards the work is the same: this audience is not OK...
that...... Just really... It was horrible!! Very professional people do unprofessional things, which in turn criticizes the audience for not understanding the play. Let me be honest: as a creator, don't underestimate your God.
Recently, I watched a play that "I thought it was just bronze, but I didn't expect it to be the king" and wanted to share it, that is, the drama "A Woman" broadcast by SBS to take over the "Penthouse 3". The fame of the "Penthouse" series must have been heard of by everyone. This kind of drama is a brainless peak play that completely abandons logic and only completely makes the sense of coolness, and the audience does not mind its sense of logic distortion at all. I especially agree with the comments of netizens: I am so tired at work every day, I want to see a brainless one when I go home.
Of course, there is a demand and there will be a market. This drama can be broadcast to the third part, and the creator knows too much about what to give!! Personally, this play really opened several times, but each time it was roared by the protagonist's roar, it hurt and gave up directly. So this set of dramas is still in the eighth episode of the first season. However, our perception is not very representative of the general audience, "Penthouse" can completely do the cool feeling so thoroughly, the audience so buy it, is a success!!
"A Woman" was broadcast without any attention at all, the director did not have any works, and the only thing that could be said to be the lead actor Li Heni. The beauty pageant has been born in these years but has stood firm by acting skills, Qinglong, and Hundred Thoughts of Female Supporting. At the time of the premiere, the next door Netflix had just finished broadcasting the "DP Deserter Pursuit Order", and then the "Squid Game" publicity campaign, jtbc at the same time was Quan Duyan and Liu Junlie's "Human Disqualification", tvN was "Coast Village Cha Cha Cha Cha", at the beginning I really felt that the three major stations were completely lying flat like SBS and gave up confrontation... Until one day, a friend recommended this drama, saying that it was four episodes to win the blockbuster pre-order script. Open the story synopsis: Giants, Amnesia, Revenge. Please, God 13 is in heaven, are you still playing with me these "car accidents, cancer, can't die" Korean drama old terrier? But I still opened the first episode, and it is not an exaggeration to say that half of the episode agreed with my friend's point of view. Yes, this play is indeed a project that "looks like bronze, but is actually a king". You may not know every actor in the play, but you will love the show. It is a drama that plays the old terrier out of a new trick cut completely according to the anti-template of the Korean day-and-day drama, and pokes the audience's G-spot.
Let's look at the hostess setting: the father is the black boss in prison, the grandmother died because of an accident, the heroine got the prosecutor because she wanted to track down the truth, and because she had the underworld gene, she became an outlier in the prosecutor, black and white, all kinds of cards that were not reasonable, and regarded wealth as fate. When she was tracking down a case, she accidentally encountered a rich daughter-in-law who looked exactly like herself, and she did not think that the daughter-in-law of the rich family could not bear the torture and run, and the heroine became a scapegoat, and was hit by a car and directly lost her memory. After the plot, it is such a little wolf fell into the lion group, born to be, instead of the rich sheep and daughter-in-law cool sense of revenge story.
Watching the heroine because of the amnesia of all kinds of unreasonable cards to turn the rich bunch of toss people on the horse is really unbearable, even the husband who liked the little star before did not put the daughter-in-law in his eyes has completely turned against the heroine's fans. The husband ran after the fake wife, and the drama arrangement at the crematorium chasing the wife was simply too funny. The husband is only the third person, and the male protagonist, the green plum bamboo horse, is lost halfway. The bridge section arranged for two people in the play is to gradually approach from the happy enemy, the childhood terrier plays a role, and the two people complete the plot of the love. Cliché? somewhat!! But this drama really makes the love drama of the male and female protagonists very detailed, and the cool feeling of revenge is that you still have the white rabbit milk candy to eat. The heroine also has a loyal dog and a small wolf dog pursuing the human design. Sure enough, the cool and sassy woman around, is to surround the various "warblers and swallows" to meet the needs and preferences of different groups of people!!!
After eight episodes of the show, it fell a little down, and the refreshing rhythm of revenge in the early stage was replaced by love, which is also a common problem in Korean dramas. But how the first eight episodes of the show counter-routine to create a sense of coolness, how to grasp the rhythm, how to drive the audience to create empathy points are really worth watching.
The recent broadcast of several Korean dramas is a very, very intuitive feeling is the maturity of the industrialization system of Korean TV dramas, the compilation and directing, the costume of the road, the recording of the United States, and even the subsequent publicity and planning of the specialization of the whole industry chain. Our road to drama, really have to bow our heads and seriously go on can not lose ah!
