"Painted Skin" can be said to be the originator of the fantasy theme of ancient costumes, not only do you often see the reproduction of the characters of "Painted Skin" on variety shows, but there are often similar plots in big online movies.
But a classic is a classic, it is not so easy to reproduce, and it is difficult to surpass.
The movie "Painted Skin: Love Annihilation" was officially announced on April 25, as a big online movie, its finalization news should not have caused any waves, but the word "painted skin" and Gillian's fame have supported the popularity of this work.
At a time when theatrical movies are all accumulating enough energy to rush to the May 1st file, "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished" can still be used as a supplementary work to fill the audience of the film shortage.
It's just that judging from the trailer of "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished", this movie is full of not very good atmosphere.
The plot is familiar, and the texture is rough and cheap
The reason why the "Painted Skin" series can be successful is because the movie is quite sophisticated in the production of ancient costumes, the beautiful painting style, and the excellent special effects are all important factors for the movie to become a classic representative.
But "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished" is not as good as a theatrical movie after all, and the lack of texture is enough to dissuade the audience.
In the movie trailer, there are some familiar scenes, but the plot synopsis of the movie can hardly hide the traces of drastic adaptation.
In the movie, Ah Ruo played by Gillian is Wang Sheng's wife, the fox demon Xiaoman discovered the secret of Ah Ruo's life experience, and Xiao Man had no emotion for Wang Sheng from beginning to end, what she wanted was Ah Ruo's treasure, so she planned a love drama.
In terms of plot, "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished" is similar to the original "Painted Skin", but the most gripping love triangle in the play is nowhere to be found in this version of "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished".
Without emotional entanglements, "Painted Skin" naturally has less flavor. What's more, the movie "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished" really does not have the advantage of retaining the audience in terms of texture.
The fantasy scenes in the movie are all full of five-cent special effects. All the supporting actresses except the heroine seem to be cosers at the cosplay exhibition, and the effect of the picture is similar to the interface of an online game, and the painting style is so cheap that you can see that the filmmaker's funds are stretched thin, and it is difficult to get enough money to invite Gillian.
Moreover, the actor who plays Wang Sheng also looks too ordinary, even if you can't invite a handsome guy in ancient costume like Chen Kun, you have to find a similar one, the actor who plays Wang Sheng in the movie is more passer-by than a passerby, and his face looks like a winter melon in the close-up, even if Gillian's weight management is a little out of control during the filming of "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished", I think the same frame of the two is Wang Sheng's high climb.
Of course, Zhong Xintong's state in the movie "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished" is also difficult to describe.
43-year-old Zhong Xintong is becoming more and more mellow, and it is difficult to hide his naïve
During the previous "Sister Lang" period, Zhong Xintong lost weight and returned to the peak of his appearance. But when the movie "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished" was filmed, Zhong Xintong was still chubby, so Gillian could only watch certain scenes in the movie.
When Gillian has long hair scattered and the camera is level, Gillian's thick facial features and three-dimensional bone appearance are stunning enough, but if you change your style and angle, the 43-year-old Gillian will become fat and round in seconds.
When she was in the arms of the male protagonist, Gillian was so fat that her jawline disappeared, her big round face and neck were connected together, and her round face made people want to call her "Big glutton, eat less".
Not only that, but in Gillian's full-body shot, her body curves are exposed more obviously.
In the play, when Ah Ruokai guarded the male protagonist, he flew up directly and blew up the audience, but unfortunately, Gillian has become a bucket, which should have been used as a highlight scene, only a big waist and a round figure remain. At first glance, it's a miracle that my real character can fly.
The costume itself is easy to look fat and bloated, and Gillian's figure magnifies this, so that when the audience sees her like a barrel falling from the sky, they can't help but laugh.
In the trailer, there is also a plot in which the villain bewitches Ah Ruo, the camera focuses on the close-up of the heroine's face, and Gillian in the picture has a chubby face, like a round boiled egg. Judging from her expression and tears alone, Gillian's acting skills are no problem, but her state has dragged down her acting skills, making her feel funny no matter how she shapes it.
It's not that the audience is harsh, it's that Gillian is much worse than her beauty at her peak.
Of course, this is not the first time that Gillian has overturned because of her figure.
Previously, the online movie "Fengshen: Daji" starring Gillian also overturned due to body problems and caused ridicule.
In this play, Gillian's face shaping Daji has no problem at all, but unfortunately at this stage she is almost fat to the peak of her life, the flesh on her face makes the advantages of her facial features disappear, and she can't even hide the puffy greasy feeling in the close-up, and she is dressed in a red glamorous shape, which is worn out of a middle-aged woman's effect.
If this is an ordinary ordinary character, the audience will grit their teeth and admit it, but what she portrays is Daji, you must know that the actors who have portrayed the role of Daji on the screen are all glamorous beauties. What Fan Bingbing, Na Ran, and Wen Bixia all pulled the beauty of the character of Daji to a certain height.
But then again, Gillian is not self-indulgent, after the failure of the marriage, Gillian actually experienced a period of self-torture, she had psychological problems, which also led to hormonal imbalance, fat and fat.
But to put it mildly, being an actor is a profession that requires beauty. The audience can understand Gillian's situation, but coming out to film when she is not in a good state is irresponsible to the work, the performance, and the audience.
What's more, many viewers are loyal fans of Gillian. And whether it is "Fengshen: Daji" or "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished", they are all slightly rough works in big online movies.
Choosing these scripts and creating such a character will inevitably cause some netizens to be dissatisfied with Gillian.
Fortunately, now Gillian has successfully lost weight, and she no longer believes in men's love words, she tries to return to work, from filming to opening concerts, you can see Gillian's career ambitions.
And to maintain such a state and manage her figure well, Gillian's beauty and popularity can still bring her good resources. Next time, I also hope that Gillian can get rid of the big online production and try some roles that test her acting skills and have more texture.
As for this "Painted Skin: Love Extinguished", it has not yet been launched, and it has become the hottest online university in 2024. As long as this drama is broadcast steadily, some complaints from netizens will be regarded as Gillian's effective appearance.
