First, the prosperity and glory of the city, just like those bright and dazzling stars, after the glory, they are no longer the focus of attention, facing people's continuous doubts about their reputation and the gradual decline of popularity.
With the ringing of the bell at the beginning of the 21st century, a group of mainland actors with profound skills and excellent acting skills have stepped onto the stage of domestic and foreign films and TV dramas.
Their performances captivated the audience, and words of praise poured into them in anticipation that they would continue to write new legends.
However, time flies, time flies, and those actresses who were once surrounded by praise now have to face the doubts and ridicule of online public opinion, and even the accusation of "overturning". The audience watched the tragic scenes of the twilight of the heroes they showed, and once had infinite expectations for them, but they couldn't help but sigh that the reputation and influence of the actors were so fragile, like a soap bubble about to burst.
So, as actors, do they still have the possibility of regaining their virtuosity and creating new glory? It all depends on whether they can uphold the spirit of craftsmanship and maintain a sense of reverence for art, in order to leave an eternal mark on the hearts of the audience.
Whether the new actress Liu Yase can learn from the lessons of her predecessors and always remain cautious will determine whether she can create timeless classics.
Second, netizens complained that Zhou Dongyu's performance in many TV series was unremarkable, pulling her off the throne of the "Three Golden Queens".
The eye-catching Zhou Dongyu, a young and powerful actor, won the Golden Rooster Award and the Academy Award for Best Actress in 2019 for her wonderful performance in the movie "Young You", which complemented the previous Golden Horse Award and successfully ranked among the first "three actresses" of the post-90s! People are full of expectations for the future of this new actress, and I believe she will write a brilliant chapter in the film industry.
However, the world is unpredictable, and since then, Zhou Dongyu's performance in a series of TV series has not been satisfactory, triggering an overwhelming wave of criticism on the Internet. The first is the costume martial arts masterpiece "Eternal Juechen" broadcast in 2022, in which she plays the heroine who is known as "the first beauty of the world", but her performance is far from the level of the actress.
Negative comments such as "squeezing eyebrows and making eyes are too pretentious" and "facial features flying around" have emerged in an endless stream, and netizens have said that her performance is too "too girl-like" and completely unable to show the demeanor that "Three Golden Queens" should have.
Some people even compare her with Zhang Jiani, who plays the role of a maid in the play, thinking that the latter's performance is more natural and smooth, vivid and expressive, which eclipses the light of the heroine Zhou Dongyu.
This is just an appetizer, followed by "Little Family Affair" starring Zhou Dongyu is also online on the online platform, and her bland performance in the play once again aroused strong dissatisfaction among netizens.
Zhou Dongyu, who was once known as the "Three Movie Queens", has now become the focus of netizens' doubts because of her successive defeats, and her acting career future has also been shrouded in a layer of haze.
3. Zhang Ziyi's performance in "Shangyang Fu" has been controversial, and her acting career has been questioned.
Let's turn our attention to Zhang Ziyi. This powerful actor, who has won the Academy Award twice, is also well-known on the international stage, and has been nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for her role in "Memoirs of a Geisha", which has been praised by the industry.
However, in recent years, her image and acting skills in China have encountered unprecedented doubts. In 2021, as soon as the TV series "Shangyang Fu" starring Zhang Ziyi was broadcast, it quickly sparked heated discussions among netizens.
The 41-year-old challenged her to play a teenage girl in the play, both the tiredness on her face and the way she acted, which made the audience feel extremely uncomfortable.
Many netizens bluntly accused her of being too "pretending to be tender", obviously she was middle-aged, but she wanted to forcibly stuff herself into the image of a girl, but it attracted a lot of complaints. When it comes to her acting skills, she has been subjected to ruthless attention and criticism.
Some netizens jokingly called her like a "weathered blind man", there is no wave on her face, whether it is innocent sobbing or disgusted and coquettish, she always has the same set of rigid and stylized performances, which is in stark contrast to Zhang Ziyi's vicissitudes of life, which is more conspicuous and abrupt, especially when compared with the equally excellent supporting role Zuo Xiaoqing and Yu Hewei, Zhang Ziyi's sense of existence becomes more and more dim and cannot resonate with the audience.
Looking back at Zhang Ziyi's past classics, such as the movies "The Grandmaster" and "2046", etc., the various roles she has successfully created are still unforgettable. However, when we see her embarrassing performance in "Shangyang Fu", we can't help but sigh what kind of predicament she is experiencing now.
