author:The Paper

Editor's note: There are a large number of movies, TV series and variety shows broadcast every week, how do you choose, you may wish to take a look at the surging drama recommendations.

【Movie】

This week, many films such as "Brother, Hello", "Tomorrow's War", "New Big Head Son and Little Head Dad 5" announced that their release was extended to the end of November.

On October 21, according to Lighthouse Pro, "Ten Thousand Miles Home", "Ordinary Heroes" and "Brother, Hello" occupied the top three in the single-day box office list.

【TV Series】

"The Light Chaser"

The CP fans of "Why Sheng Xiao Silent" can continue. "Light Chaser" starring Luo Yunxi and Wu Qian is based on the Blue Sky Rescue Team and a non-governmental public welfare rescue organization as the theme, telling a multi-line parallel group portrait drama. The six young people in the play come from all walks of life and different classes, all join the rescue team, experience various disasters, and finally they redeem each other.

Director Zhang Tong is the apprentice of director Mao Weining, shooting realistic themes is more handy, the third episode 6 earthquake rescue scene reflects skill, the disaster scene is a mess, miserable, the series quickly focuses on the fate of a mother and son, and the male protagonist is also shocked because the mother sacrificed herself to protect the child. But I have to say that the overall rhythm editing is not tight enough, and the big scene of the earthquake should be moving, but from time to time interspersed with insignificant protagonist dialogues and plots are too emotionally interrupted. In general, the subject matter is very good, but the plot and characters are too mediocre and warm.

"Rock and Roll Flower"

Peng Lai (played by Yao Chen) underwent surgery and ate egg roll ice cream during the day, and the finale may be suspected of being muddy, but overall it is very restrained, at least not so that the day meets everyone's expectations to shout "mom". Some viewers who like rock said that this drama has a stereotype of rock, and not all those who play the band abandon their families like Peng Lei and insist on going their own way, and as a rock-themed drama, the music in the play is not outstanding enough. "Rock and Roll Flower" does have flaws in the shaping of the image of rolling people, whether it is character or music, there are all kinds of "stinky problems", but in essence, this drama is mainly about a mother-daughter relationship, the past and growth of women.

Finally, a dialogue between Peng Lei and two himself in fantasy after the operation is obviously the point of the series. More importantly, Peng Lai is a different mother, whether in reality or in film and television themes, although she has not fulfilled her mother's duties for twelve years, she has been being herself, drunk or obsessed with rock and roll, she does her best to live her own path, without being bound by the "mother's love narrative", she does not sacrifice herself, and she is not great at all.

Penley fantasizes about the dialogue between two of himself.

Peng Lai is not a "correct" mother, and even does wrong things many times, but it is precisely because of this that she is so precious, is the scarce "diversity" in the film and television dramas that are easy to be the first in the same mother's love, no one agrees that Peng Lai's approach is right, but full of maternal love is never lacking in the public discourse space, and even comedy has to strengthen the worldly maternal love that forces her children to eat a healthy diet, and it is precisely to be able to be yourself and face yourself, which is the most lacking topic in the current family topic.

"Our Decade"

"Our Decade" is indeed a main theme work, but it is also a work worth watching. The new "Qianhai" and "Three Meals a Day" have the same advantages as the previous chapters, based on small people, starting from actual emotions, not suspended or inexplicably "tall". "Qianhai" starts with the entrepreneurial stories of young people and tells the bittersweet and bittersweet of real entrepreneurship, while "Three Meals a Day" is based on a small restaurant, reflecting the changes brought about by the "eight regulations" through the changes in a restaurant in the past ten years.

Of course, the most impressive at present is "Tang Palace Night Banquet" and "Love", there is no blunt or preaching, only the life of ordinary people, the emotions of ordinary people, vivid and simple.

Skits

Short dramas have developed from short video platforms to date, and finally have a certain degree of viewability. Previously, the emergence of the Da Mang short drama "Nian Nian Wuming" seems to have brought hope to the field of short dramas, and there have been several good short dramas recently, which can be watched to the same extent as ordinary long videos.

"Vanity"

Also produced by the team of the Da Mang short drama "Nian Nian Wuming", "Vanity" is also a costume idol drama, telling the story of two women who changed their faces overnight, and since then the fate of the two has changed, not only personal fate, but mainly changes brought about by emotional lines. It must be said that this team has something, about ten minutes per episode, the plot advances rapidly, and the costume Dao surpasses many ancient puppet dramas, although the actors are unknown, but each of them can complete the task well, and almost no one makes people play.

If you like ancient puppet dramas, don't talk, go into the pit quickly, and don't regret it.

"A Thousand Golden Girl Ring"

After all, it is a short drama, and there must be strong plot ups and downs, such as the interchange of characters similar to "Vanity". "Qianjin Yahuan" is about a large family that was tragically annihilated, and Miss Qianjin finally survived, trying to find her fiancé for help, but found that she had been replaced by her own girl. How can I find my identity? How can I avenge my family? In the first episode, these threads and questions are thrown out, who can refuse!

However, in terms of production, this one is more suspended than "Vanity", the acting skills and plot are relatively rough, there are still some exaggerated problems in the early short drama, and the male protagonist also stages the strong hug and kiss plot of the earthy and domineering president from time to time. But fortunately, the same episode is about ten minutes, never waste every second of social animals, an episode can have N reversals and plot points, and it is not a loss to watch a few episodes on the subway.

Tips: In the first episode, the male protagonist generously exposed half of his muscles, and his figure was better than many young actors.

"Floating Whimsical World"

This is a more different short drama, only broadcast on Douyin, the male protagonist is the famous actor Qin Junjie, and the production company is Linghe, who has produced "Soul Ferry".

Linghe has always been good at seemingly levitating, but actually imaginative, some psychedelic content, "Floating Whimsical World" shows the strength of large companies, although an episode is only four or five minutes, but the production surpasses most short dramas, especially some scene changes, whether it is special effects or real shooting, it is not inferior to long video episodes.

The series has ten fantasy stories of "Southern Tang Later Lord", "Soul Clothes", "Near-Death Moment", "Lucid Dreaming", "I Come from Gaowei", "Creator", "Future Algorithm", "River of Time", "Spirit of Things", "Non-Player Characters", telling that the male protagonist who writes the public account collects all kinds of strange people and anecdotes every week, such as murderers who claim that the soul can go out of the body, and there are delivery people who insist that they are the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Each unit has four episodes, each of which is less than five minutes long, for a total of less than 20 minutes to tell an imaginative story. The author is very impressed by "The Queen of the Southern Tang" and "Clothes of the Soul", but I think it is a pity that such a story would be richer and more attractive if it could be made into a growth video.

Currently updated to 15 episodes, interesting, well-made, with guaranteed acting and imaginative story, this show proves that good content ideas can be enough to shine in just a few minutes.

In the show, the chef confessed that because he was young and playful, he rarely returned home, and he didn't find that he had too little time to accompany his mother until his mother died, and he said that he insisted on opening a store in Shanghai, just to make up for the lack of companionship for his mother.

"Warm Hot Pot"

"Warm Hot Pot"

The client of this hot pot banquet is Cheng Yongmao, the "most beautiful guardian of the Great Wall" and an expert in the restoration of the Great Wall of Jiankou.

At nightfall, a heartfelt hot pot banquet opened in the noisy sky of gongs and drums. The workers who participated in the renovation sat around wearing military coats carefully prepared by Lao Cheng, enjoying the "intangible cultural heritage on the tip of the tongue" - muddy pot.

Why choose a muddy pot? Because the origin of the muddy pot is inextricably linked with the Great Wall, not only because the muddy pot was handed down from the generals stationed at Shanhaiguan, but also very particular about the choice of ingredients, the combination of meat and vegetables, and the wonderful reaction to the taste produced by putting sauerkraut, so that the soldiers at that time could withstand the cold and eat at the same time. Today, this muddy pot, which has a history of more than 300 years, is exactly in line with the background of the workers' repair of the Great Wall and the taste of heavy taste and more meat dishes due to their labor.

"Summer of Encounter"

In addition to "Heartbeat 5", there is another romance "Summer of Encounter" that is also in the hit stage. "Summer of Encounter" is actually the fourth season of "Let's Fall in Love", on October 19, the latest feature film update of "Summer of Encounter", except for Wu Yichun and Lin Maofeng, the relationship is relatively certain, the rest of the guests are in an uncertain state, especially after the female four sea bells joined, everyone's relationship has waved again.

Sea Bell

Hailing changed her previous reserved state and directly launched a super straightforward and fierce attack on the amateur male guests, and all kinds of straight balls frantically provoked the male guests, completely like a changed person. Even bluntly said that he wanted to kiss this amateur male guest when there was a camera. As soon as her remarks came out, the star observation room directly fried the pot, Liu Yan bluntly said that he did not expect the sea bell to be so fierce, and Yang Di also said meaningfully "turn the sky", shocked face is quite real.

But some netizens complained, the script design is very fierce, the female guest speaks on a large scale, what will you think?

"Our Song"

This week, Zhou Chuanxiong and Land Rover will sing Land Rover's masterpiece "The Sound of Snow Falling". This song means a lot to Land Rover, he described it as a song that is both familiar and unfamiliar to everyone, a musical talent who has been behind the scenes for more than ten years, and finally became known to the public with the popularity of this song.

Yang Kun and Ma Jiaqi will sing a song "Myself" to sing questions and reflections on the theme. "Myself" is a single released by Xu Jun, and it was heard by more people on the stage of "China Good Songs", but it was later sung by Zhang Jie.
