We often hear people say, "Beauty in the heart is beautiful." "The inside affects a person's temperament." But for a teenager, appearance is still everything that determines a person's value.
Adapted from the 1999 school youth film "The Beauty of the Eyebrows", "The Cultivation of Male Gods" will exchange gender roles and add new elements, bringing the audience a positive and inspirational comedy movie.
"The Cultivation of the Gods" is a school comedy film, directed by Mark Walters, starring Edison Ray, Tannab Kannan, and Rachel Lycock, the plot tells the story of Internet celebrity Cecilia accidentally broadcast the breakup process live on the Internet.
In order to save her reputation, she took a very risky bet, vowing that she could transform the scruffy fringe student Kame into a popular ball king in a short period of time, but it also put her in another difficult challenge.
The protagonist of "The Cultivation of the Male God" Isa, An Internet celebrity with millions of fans, runs the "Bai zhi perfect package", often opens live broadcasts to interact with fans, shares his daily life and beauty knowledge, and receives high sponsorship income every month.
Bai Zhi, who was born into an ordinary family, was able to attend a famous high school full of rich second-generation and rich children, but a storm also made her originally abundant life face difficulties.
Bai Zhi has a boyfriend Jotun who is also an Internet celebrity, although he is not as popular as her, but he is also a little famous in school, which has made the two get a lot of attention.
However, one day, Bai Zhi found that her boyfriend Jotun split her legs, which not only made her discouraged and immersed in sadness, but also made the live video of Cecilia's rage collapse circulating on the Internet, which also made her instantly become the laughing stock of everyone, and the number of sponsors and fans plummeted.
In the case that Cecilia of "The Cultivation of the Male Gods" once transformed Jotun into his current state and was named the "Queen of Transformation", she decided to repeat the past experience and create an unexpected "king" for the upcoming graduation ball.
Try to use her "transformational prowess" to make him shine at the ball to create a topic and prove himself, reversing the current situation of being ridiculed by everyone and falling into a trough.
Cammeh, the male protagonist of "The Cultivation of the Gods", is always immersed in his own world, hates pop culture, and is a bit neurotic in the eyes of others, and the huge contrast between this and the king of the dance party makes Bai Zhi finally choose him as his challenge target.
Therefore, "The Cultivation of the Male God" focuses on the process of Cecilia trying to transform Kame, from the interaction between the two and the interesting events encountered, showing the youthful vitality of teenagers.
Among them, from Camel, who baizhi asked to work at the horse farm, teaching himself to ride a horse, inviting him to a friend's birthday pool party, singing on stage together, to the socialites in the urban costume play movie "The Legend of the Tycoon", "The Cultivation of the Male God" has allowed two strangers who have no intersection and are in a completely different world, from this challenge to close the distance between each other, bringing out the theme of the whole movie about daring to try, learning to accept different things, and finding their true selves.
After a long time together, "The Cultivation of the Male God" Bai Zhi and Kame are familiar with each other, understand each other's personality, and understand that Kame is not just a strange coffee, and Cecilia is not just a brainless Internet celebrity.
However, although the ambiguous feelings between the two have allowed them to develop a valuable relationship in the film, the lie that Bai Zhi approached Kame in order to regain popularity from the beginning also made "The Cultivation of the Male God" a crisis that may cause everything to collapse in an instant.
Perhaps as a school comedy with teenagers as the protagonists, the whole movie of "The Cultivation of the Male God" starts from the social internet celebrities, hoping to transform the original marginal people into popular characters, but in the end, the end of the movie still tells us that we must return to the original essence of a person.
Just as fans don't like you because they don't wear makeup, in addition to appearance, whether the inner focus can attract people must be balanced.
Overall, I like the atmosphere between reality and illusion in "The Cultivation of the Male Gods", although on the surface it may be a little far away from our lives, but the whole film inverts the gender of 1999's "Miao Mei Mei" and also presents the relatively old-fashioned theme with many popular culture elements in line with modernity.
With the interesting interaction between the male and female protagonists in the film and several exemplary characters, I believe that the audience who likes this type of work can be satisfied.
Thank you for watching, paying attention to me, and learning more about it.
