It's miserable, it's a big surprise.
As one of the public's favorite genre dramas, since the first spy war drama in the mainland "Eighteen Years of the Enemy Camp", many classic masterpieces have been born in the following decades. There are "Secret Calculation", "Merit", "Informer", "Kite", etc. directed and starring by the "godfather of spy warfare" Liu Yunlong, as well as "Lurking", "Before Dawn", "The Pretender", etc., and in recent years, "Secret and Great", "Rebel", "Wind" and so on are also quite good.
However, in addition to classics and excellent masterpieces, there are also many overturned cars.
Such as "Autumn Cicada", "Aim", "Hengshan Hospital", etc., and naturally this year's "Thin Ice", "Infernal" and "Stalker".
Today's spy war dramas either serve the modern atmosphere of the Tao, or go against basic history and logic, or the actors' acting skills are immature.
Take this "Hive" for example, it also has such a problem, it just started broadcasting and overturned, and made the spy war drama into a divine drama.
For the service aspect of this drama, if you don't divide the genre, it's really hard to make the audience think that this is a story that takes place in the thirties of the last century, and the entire costume styling can be described as a fashion trend. Although this is a common problem in today's spy war dramas, it is even more obvious in this drama.
Not to mention that the costumes of the agents of the Aoyama Military Academy have crossed, which is not in line with the facts, the hairstyle alone is quite modern, the male agent is powdered, and the female agent is heavily painted. What is even more outrageous is that even if he is arrested and imprisoned, his makeup still does not change, and he does not sweat after training, and he is all white and glowing. Handsome men and beautiful women, this is the standard of today's spy war dramas, but the service road regardless of history makes it difficult to say a word, and it is difficult for the audience to substitute into the era of change, fierce struggle and crisis.
It is obviously a spy war drama, fighting not only force, but also intelligence, but in this drama, it presents a thunderous scene.
Gu Pan, an agent played by Song Yi, received a secret order from Aoyama Military Academy and ordered him to carry out the assassination mission of Koji Kamiya, the director of the Japanese Culture Department, alone. The cornices running around on the roof made the audience mistakenly think that they were watching a martial arts movie.
After that, after Gu Pan was shot, he met with the person of the connector, obviously in pain and pale, but in the face of the assassination of the person of the joint, he killed the other party with his backhand in the next minute. Force is worth a blast.
Of course, not only that, but then he drove into the car again and rushed into the car with Luo Xingming, an agent played by Han Dong, on the main road. Note that the last shot was still white lips, and here I put on lipstick again. The whole spirit was much fuller.
First flew off the wall, then killed with injuries, and finally rushed to the car, this scene came down, the force of agent Gu Pan was vividly reflected, but it has long been regardless of facts and logic, which is the agent, that is, Superwoman. These exaggerated scenes may be understandable, but the details are absurd, especially the changes in face color and lip color before and after, which is no longer logical.
Of course, there are many more loopholes in details like this.
Such as Sister Yun was injured after that, the previous shot was still bandaging her right arm, and the next shot changed her clothes and became her left arm. Although this is a separate shoot, it is not too obvious that this kind of outfit is too obvious.
This is the same as Gu Pan's face and lips before and after the race.
In addition, whether it was Gu Pan or Shane, when they were arrested and whipped, they saw blood marks on their clothes, not damaged clothes, let alone twitches on their bodies. The audience can see the fraud at a glance. But the director can't see it, how can it be substitutionary and convincing to show such a fake shot in front of the audience.
Such detailed loopholes alone are already characteristic of divine dramas. This is clearly not a question of funding, but of attitude. The creative attitude is perfunctory and sloppy, and the production is rough.
This is clearly fooling the audience, insulting the ancestors, and trampling on history.
Of course, not to mention that emotional dramas still occupy a certain proportion in this drama.
It is obviously a spy war drama, but it has been made into an action movie, an idol drama, and an anti-Japanese drama.
But I have to say that the rhythm of the whole drama is bright, the entire plot design has ups and downs, and the mission events are continuous one after another, showing the fierce struggle of all parties, and leaving suspense, wits and courage. But in the logic before and after, the details are not in place, or far from the excellent spy war drama.
As a special theme, spy war dramas can add fictional characters and plots, but after all, they are genre dramas based on basic history, and there are too many historical materials to query. But today's screenwriters and directors, in order to break through innovation, wantonly adapt. For example, the protagonist with a complex supergod identity in "Infernal" and the biggest failure of the family in "Stalker" have seriously surpassed history, regardless of facts, illogical, and have been filmed into divine dramas, absurd and ridiculous.
Divine dramas are present every year, and now there are so many that people have to reflect and wake up.
There was "Infernal" before, "Stalker" later, and now there is "The Hive".
Today's spy war dramas are obviously standing on the shoulders of giants, but they always want to subvert and break through, ignoring history, ignoring predecessors, ignoring the audience, and ignoring logic. Before I learned to walk, I wanted to run, and I also wanted to stage a 100-meter sprint, but I planted a big heel and lifted a rock and hit my own foot. Although they all hold trump cards, they still play a sparse and make a spy war drama into a divine drama, and this lesson is not profound!
