Pull up the finger to count the domestic spy dramas in the past 20 years, and there are too few works with a Douban score of more than 9 points.
If strictly divided according to the type of spy drama, I am afraid that only 4 dramas such as "Latent" (9.4 points), "Dark Calculation" (9.0 points), "Before dawn" (9.2 points), and "Red" (9.1 points) can be included.
The douban scores of "Kite" (starring Liu Yunlong, Luo Haiqiong, Li Xiaoran) and "Cliff" (starring Zhang Jiayi and Song Jia) are not very high, as of now, they are 8.8 points and 8.5 points respectively.
Many netizens, including fans of spy dramas, believe that these two spy dramas have the possibility of being underestimated.
Some netizens also believe that the score of the spy war drama Douban exceeds 9 points not only the above 4 works, but also the "Tracking Without Regrets" scored 9.3 points and the "Battle Changsha" scored 9.1 points, that is to say, at least 6 spy war dramas have high ratings and are also very excellent works.
However, Leng Si believes that "Tracking Without Regrets" (starring Wang Zhiwen, Liu Peiqi, Yue Xiuqing and He Bing) is the story of the agent, but it is not a spy war story, which belongs to a typical period drama, not a spy war drama. "Battle Changsha" (starring Huo Jianhua, Yang Zi and Zuo Xiaoqing) is indeed a work of conscience, but it does not belong to the category of spy dramas, it is a model anti-war drama, or a war drama.
"Kite" and "Cliff", which are recommended by espionage drama fans, failed to reach 9 points, which is indeed a pity.
Some netizens commented that there was no spy drama after "Kite", and there was no Liu Yunlong.
Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is not unreasonable. "Kite" needs to brush the drama at least twice, and only after watching it very patiently can you feel the success of the play.
It can be said that from the beginning to the end, all the episodes of "Kite" have almost no superfluous plot, no superfluous characters, even if it is a picture or a shot, it has its own deep meaning, not appears superfluous.
An important reason why "Kite" failed to reach more than 9 points should be that the play was asked to delete some plots during the review, and some lines may also be deleted and modified, and the overall artistry and aesthetics of the play are a little lacking. It is precisely because there are some errors in artistry, the scores of some netizens may be underestimated.
"Cliff" is a popular spy drama, and it is a counter-espionage war spy drama. The play touches the pain in the depths of people's souls, and the portrayal of human nature is very in place, and it is also a praise for the humanity of Zhou Yi, the protagonist, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is a kind of praise.
Some netizens do not have a high evaluation of "Cliff", which may stem from some routine plot design.
For example, Zhou Yi and Gu Qiuyan pretended to be husband and wife, this design repeated the routine of many spy dramas in the past, and many netizens thought that it was somewhat tacky, reducing the quality of the drama, and even lowering the grade of the drama.
The storyline of "Cliff" seems to be a bit slow, the pace of the whole series is careless, and it may be difficult for anxious viewers to finish the play in one breath.
However, Leng Si believes that one of the charms of "Cliff" is the unhurried rhythm of the show, which seems very real, and many details show the power of shocking people's hearts.
There is also an underrated spy drama, that is, Du Yulu, Sun Xing, Huang Xuan, Zhou Yang, Guo Da and other starring "Dark War Before Dawn", the drama's current Douban score of 7.7 points.
"Dark War Before Dawn" is a work of conscience, and the evaluation of netizens is in place and decent.
They believe that the drama uses real characters such as Cheng Qian, Chen Mingren, bai Chongxi and so on to drive the overall development of the story, with convincing and infectious historical events as the main line. On the basis of respecting history, the drama has real in the virtual, the virtual in the virtual, the free play, the watchability is very strong, and it is also in line with the mainstream consciousness.
Leng Si has also always liked this excellent spy drama very much, and has repeatedly turned it out to re-brush the drama.
Therefore, not only "Kite" and "Cliff" are underestimated, but "Dark War Before Dawn" may also be underestimated.
