At present, the IP film and television of the film and television market has become the mainstream trend, and the well-known big IP is competing to launch the film and television version unit, including the widely acclaimed fantasy adventure IP "Ghost Blowing Lights".
In recent years, the film and television works adapted from "Ghost Blowing Lights" have successively appeared on the screen, and the external response has also been mixed, but works such as "Jingjie Ancient City" and "Longling Labyrinth" have captured a good reputation, which is enough to see that the market influence of these columns has always been strong.
At the end of the year, the film version of "The Kunlun Shrine of the Ghost Blowing Lights" was officially launched, and the film aroused the eager expectations of many fans at the beginning of the official lineup, mainly because the actor Wang Taki was picking the beam in the film, which had already added a layer of quality insurance to the film.
It's just a pity that how high the expectations are, how big the disappointment is, this work still has not escaped the doom of being spat on and questioned, and the Douban score is even worse, only 3.9 points, which is really a bad film.
It is understood that "Kunlun Shrine" is the fourth chapter in the "Ghost Blowing Lights" series, which tells the story of the "Iron Triangle" combination Hu Bayi, Shirley Yang and Wang Kaixuan accidentally cursed after venturing out of the ancient city of Jingjie, in order to break the curse, the three of them found the Cloud Dust Bead after hardships, but in order to use the Cloud Dust Beads effectively, the three must go to the Demon Kingdom to find the secret and answer.
In this situation, a businessman named Uncle Ming took the initiative to appear, hoping to go to the magic country with the three of them to find the so-called "Millennium Crystal Stone", and several people once again began a dangerous adventure.
Unlike in the past, this work uses a new iron triangle lineup, in which Wang Takizheng plays the soul character Hu Bayi.
Wang Taki is because of the word-of-mouth drama "Hidden and Great" fame has increased greatly, before that, many works starred in are also highly praised, such as "Psychological Crime" and "White Night Pursuit", as well as the same highly evaluated work "Nineteen Years of Pursuing Murder", which is enough to see that Wang Takizheng's acting skills are indeed beyond doubt, and the vision of selecting scripts is also quite unique.
And shirley Yang and Wang Kaixuan in the film are played by Wang Ziyun and Han Yezhou, although for many viewers, the two are still new faces, but from the previously exposed materials, the image and temperament of the two and the characters are highly compatible, and the scene of the three people in the same frame also appears tacit and bursts out of a different spark.
In the official film, the acting skills of several actors are still online, and Wang Takizheng's performance is as stable and brilliant as ever, but he can't stand such a tedious and empty plot.
As many viewers have said, the plot of the whole film seems to be deliberately pieced together, and many places are illogical, and the scene changes are slightly abrupt.
One will be a vast desert, the other will be a vast snowy mountain, the front is still no man's land shot, the back scene suddenly changes, the plot is pulled into the reincarnation temple scene, let people look confused, thinking jump to difficult to connect.
In addition, the most criticized thing about the film is its special effects level, to know that the original "Kunlun Shrine" shows a magnificent and shocking fantasy plot at a large length, such as the "Nine-Story Demon Tower" and "Evil Luohai City" that are focused on in the original work, and the result is that the plot here is completely diluted in the film, only casually taken, hastily done.
What is even more powerless to complain is that in the plot of the millennium female corpse tomb in the film, the post-special effects are even more clumsy to the point, using laser special effects that are too fake to be fake, and the picture can be described as extremely contrary.
The "Snow Maitreya" style in the ice scene is even more perfunctory, only allowing the actors to wear cheap masks to cope with business.
There is also the "white-haired zombie" film modeling, the processing technology is cheap and rough to make the audience frequently play, the special effects level of the crotch greatly reduces the overall perception of the film, the post-production technology of the whole film is like the producer's careless small fight, can not see its sincerity and intentions.
In addition, the film also made a big deal of magic changes to the details of the original work, and Ah Xiang in the original work was born with special abilities, could see things that ordinary people could not see, timid and weak but kind at heart.
In the film, Ah Xiang was adapted into a villain role, the person set up to become a greedy demon descendant, and the blackened Ah Xiang behaved madly, and the actor's acting skills were obviously uncontrollable, in short, it was really embarrassing to see the audience's toes grasping the ground and capitalizing.
Another important role is also the case with Uncle Ming, the original Uncle Ming set rich and three-dimensional, greedy for money and afraid of death, while the mind is shrewd, the ability to see the wind and make the rudder is really first-class, but the personality of Uncle Ming in the film has also been weakened, only reflecting his timidity and cowardice, did not see his shrewdness in the world, resulting in a great reduction in the charm of the role.
All in all, the original wonderful script story was spoiled into such a way that many audiences were disappointed and disappointed, and they also blinded the efforts and efforts of such an excellent actor as Wang Takizheng, and sincerely hoped that the producers could deeply reflect on themselves and not play a good deck of cards again.
