In other words, when "Fox Demon Little Red Lady: Moon Red Chapter" scored 5.6 on Douban, the heated discussion on the Internet was even hotter than Tu Shanhonghong in the play. But the question is, does this pot really have to be carried by Yang Mi?
First of all, I have to talk about the fact that IP film and television is really loved and hated. You see, adaptations like "Young You" not only won the hearts of the audience, but also made a lot of money. But when it's the turn of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady: Moon Red Chapter", it doesn't seem to be like that. Adaptation, adaptation, if you are not careful, you will change the taste. The complaints of fans of the original book are even more terrifying than the demons and monsters in the play.
Let's talk about Yang Mi, the leading actress of the post-85 generation, every time he appears in a new drama, he can always cause a heated discussion. But this time, she played Tu Shanhonghong, which did not seem to win the unanimous applause of the audience. Some people praised her for the agility of the role, and some people felt that her performance was a little stiff. The polarization of this acting evaluation is even more complicated than the romance in the play.
Adapted from the plot, this is a big hole. The plot of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady: Moon Red Chapter" was complained by many viewers as "magic change". Those classic plots in the original book, when they came to the play, were either cut or changed beyond recognition. No wonder fans of the original book are jumping, this adaptation is simply challenging their bottom line.
Audience feedback, this is the most direct evaluation. The comments on Douban are simply a large-scale spit scene. Someone angrily hit one star, saying that this show is rotten to the home; Some people also gave five stars and found the plot fascinating. The differentiation of this evaluation is even more fierce than the battle between good and evil in the play.
The performance of the actors, this is also a hot topic. Yang Mi's performance, some people think that she has successfully created the role, and some people feel that her acting skills need to be improved. As for other actors, such as Gong Jun, his performance is also mixed. This cast is really love-hate at the same time.
Drama production, it's a big project. From the director to the script, from the costumes to the makeup, every aspect can affect the final effect of the series. "Fox Demon Little Red Lady: Moon Red Chapter" seems to have a lot of controversy in this regard. Some viewers think it's well-made, while others think it's crude.
The turning point, this is the climax of the plot. The plot twists in the middle and late stages of "The Fox Demon Little Red Lady: Moon Red Chapter" also aroused heated discussions among the audience. Some people feel that these twists make the plot more exciting, while others feel that these twists destroy the coherence of the plot.
Finally, an unbiased evaluation, which is what every work needs. Although "Fox Demon Little Red Lady: Moon Red Chapter" does not have a high rating on Douban, this does not mean that it is useless. Yang Mi's performance, although controversial, cannot completely negate her efforts. IP film and television, although there are risks, there is also the possibility of success.
The drama "Fox Demon Little Red Lady: Moon Red Chapter" is like a complex dish, some people find it delicious, and some people find it difficult to swallow. But either way, it has become a hot topic, sparking countless discussions and reflections. For Yang Mi, this drama may also be a reminder that she still needs to work hard and improve on the road of acting. And for the audience, this drama is also a revelation that they need to be more comprehensive and objective when evaluating a work. After all, in this era of diversity, everyone has their own aesthetics and opinions, and the value of a work is not only its rating and reputation.
