When it comes to the most popular TV series recently, none of them can compare to the financial anti-corruption drama "City in the City" produced by CCTV. This drama can be described as a heavyweight cast, focusing on the drama bones and the new generation of powerful factions, and many netizens called for it crazily as soon as it started broadcasting.
However, as the plot unfolded, netizens also found some small flaws in the director's casting. The performance of some actors was disappointing and was severely criticized by netizens.
Let's take a good look with our eyes open, which actors are rough? Which actors rely on their strength to attract fans? What are the highlights and slots? Let's take a closer look at this drama and see what is going on behind the scenes.
Can the popular "City in the City" be a homemaker
That's right, "City in the City" quickly occupied the hot search lists of major video websites as soon as it was broadcast. Whether it is the plot setting that closely follows the current reality, or the cast with a strong lineup, the audience is full of expectations for this drama.
In particular, the theme of anti-corruption and anti-corruption really touches on the pain points of the current society. A drama that vividly captures the unspoken rules of the interweaving of power and money and the collusion between officials and businessmen, how can it not make people rush to it?
Not to mention that the male and female protagonists in the play are all played by national first-class actors, which is full of appeal. Yu Hewei, who plays the actor Xie Zhiyuan, is a well-known celebrity, and he attracted the attention of countless fans with his deep and long voice at the beginning.
The financial elite he plays is personable, but he is cunning and conspiracy behind the scenes, and he is simply a villain! Audiences who like to watch this kind of greedy and ambitious character are afraid that they will be fascinated by him.
As for the heroine Shen Jing, she was played by the well-known "old drama bone" Yang Zishan. Her tall nose bridge, melon seed face and delicate facial features, how can she be "beautiful"!
In the play, she always walks in the center of power in a long dress, and her appearance of seeking power and usurping the throne is also eye-opening. What's even more powerful is that she still directed the whole show single-handedly, which is simply the female version of Xunzi: "I will go out of the "city", and the gentleman will be there!" In other words, you can see how many grades this drama has just opened.
If you want to talk about acting, it must be the world of Wang Jinsong and Su Xiaoxiao, two veteran actors. The scheming businessman Wu Xianlong played by Wang Jinsong is simply simple, and his lines have a deep meaning!
It's basically a scene of "art"! And the cold and heroic Miao Che is played by the prestigious Wang Xiao. Every time he is the first to stand up and expose corrupt officials, it makes the audience addicted!
Praise the god-level acting skills of the drama bones
Friends who haven't watched "City in the City", what did you miss? That's a lot of wonderful performances by a large number of actors!
As the "big villain" in the play, Zhao Hui, the vice president of the Bank of China played by He Wei, is called a tough man! On the surface, he is a righteous man and a gentleman, gentle and elegant.
But once this layer of camouflage is removed, the greedy, insidious, and sinister face inside is revealed. Even the audience felt a chill when they watched it.
Especially when he began to gradually blacken and slide into the abyss, those foreshadowings, those eyes, and those expressions all revealed distorted bloodthirsty desires. With this acting act alone, he has attracted a large number of fans to call him crazy.
Let's talk about Miao Che, who was targeted by Zhao Hui but became his sworn enemy. Playing this upright, brave and decisive role, it is Wang Xiao, who has won the actor several times with his tough guy image.
When confronted with corrupt elements, his eyes are like a terrifying arrow, and when he exposes the evidence of corruption, he is like a general who takes the lead in war, and his spirit is extraordinary. is the so-called strength and heritage, Fang Cheng is the backbone of the drama! With Wang Xiao alone, it is enough to support the reputation of the whole drama.
What's more, there are a lot of old drama bones in the play, all of whom are profound. Like the sinister and cunning businessman Wu Xianlong, who is controlled by the acting school Wang Jinsong, there are aftertaste traps everywhere between the verbal battles.
Looking at Su Jianren played by Feng Jiayi, she pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger on the surface, but in fact, she is already preparing to go secretly. Every time she appears, that domineering spirit always bursts out suddenly, causing the audience to applaud.
As for the actor who plays Tu Songyan, he is really amazing, every time he appears, those intrigue eyes and ill-intentioned lines make people get goosebumps! In short, the lineup of actors in "City within a City" is simply amazing, and they are all impressed in front of and behind the scenes.
The slot criticized the four bad actors who dragged their feet
But throughout the whole "City in the City", it is not necessarily smooth sailing. There are still some casting negligence, which is quite complaining.
For example, Bai Yufan, who plays Tao Wuji, must have been unoptimistic about this young man at first. Because the first scene of this character's appearance, it feels too young and unfamiliar, and there is no confidence at all.
When facing such drama bones as He Wei, the whole person seemed timid, like a mouse that saw a cat. Even after being targeted by Su Jianren, his performance was doing this and that with his tail between his legs, and he had no character of the protagonist at all.
No wonder many netizens want to spray him after watching it: "The acting is poor, the audience is playing!" "It's better to change to a new person with this resource!"
Moreover, Yao Yiqi's performance in the play can be regarded as a big flaw. He always plays the role too funny, so that the lines are pronounced as if he is acting in a sketch.
When you look at it, you can feel a strong sense of action. Let's talk about that crying scene, which was originally a scene about the character who endured humiliation for many years and was full of feelings, but he performed it as if he was funny, which made the audience laugh and lose their big teeth.
Even a group of netizens complained after watching it: "It's too joyful, but it's a drama." "I'm laughing to death, this acting is really amazing!" "Why did the director let such an actor into the play!"
Speaking of "playing", Yang Zishan should be criticized even more for her performance. The ambitious strong woman she plays in the play seems to be resourceful and beautiful, but she always gives people a sense of elusiveness. is obviously doing such a rampant thing, but it lacks the explanation and support of internal motivation.
Many viewers feel that the position of this role should not be played by a more weighty candidate? As soon as I opened my mouth, my mouth was full of flesh, swollen like a bun, and it was clear that I had undergone filling surgery.
is really unable to stop the trolls' tongue moxibustion: "It's really a silicone face in the entertainment industry, why is it on the main drama?" "Dressed up like this, don't say what acting skills you hope to have!"
Finally, Lonnie's acting skills are also a big slot. It stands to reason that her role as Gao Qilan in "Hurricane" has been well received, and this appearance should be more than enough.
Who knew that as soon as he came on the field, the thick and contrived tone in his mouth would make people speechless. Not only are the facial expressions contrived, but the movements are also exaggerated, and the posture of a woman with high IQ and high emotional intelligence cannot be seen at all.
Even when he was playing against Wu Xianlong, he was acting out of self-consciousness, and he could hardly empathize with the characters in the play. Many viewers couldn't help but complain after watching it: "It seems that Xiaohuadan is still not qualified." "You can't pretend to be deep, it's better not to act!"
To sum up, the strong file depends on the strength, and the rookie has to learn a little
For many years, CCTV dramas have been regarded as synonymous with "the highest level of domestic dramas", and will never allow any shoddy factors to exist.
Therefore, the production team of "City in the City" is naturally the top director team and senior crew in China. Even the invited actors are all recognized as big teachers and star-level newcomers in the industry.
It is precisely because of such a strong team that this drama has won rave reviews from the beginning of the broadcast and attracted countless fans to watch.
However, it is clear that even such a top-notch work with high hopes will inevitably have some minor flaws. is like the actors mentioned above who are not very good at acting, which is undoubtedly the biggest failure.
Because they either lack inner experience, or the performance technique is too jerky, the flaws are exposed on the stage of this big production, which drags the whole drama back. Especially in the face of those old-fashioned deceptions, the role is like an arrow, so that the audience can all feel the same way. So in comparison, these immature actors are even more stretched.
However, at the end of the day, the success or failure of a play does not depend entirely on a few outstanding actors. What's more important is the high level of the script and the director's extreme control over casting.
After all, judging from the current situation, the core actors and main plot of "A City in the City" are enough to attract the attention of the audience. As long as the directors patiently guide and study, I believe that those newcomers will eventually make breakthroughs and progress in the later stage.
In the end, the audience will definitely be able to see an excellent work that is 100% superb.
So, dear audience friends, are you like me, full of all kinds of expectations and conjectures about this show, and what will be its final direction? Welcome to discuss it in the comment area!
