2022 is about to enter October, and the middle of the year is almost officially over. With the completion of "Punishment" and " Dear Child ", domestic suspense dramas have ushered in the broadcast of " Kunlun Shrine ", " Are you safe ", but "Kunlun Shrine" " Are you safe?" is not strictly a suspense drama.
Many people may not have noticed that the middle of this year is a year of domestic suspense dramas. The mid-year is the summer season that starts in June and ends this September. The suspense dramas broadcast include "Outside Court" and " Coward" ", " Ice Rain Fire ", "Punishment", "Dear Child" and other works, and the quality and reputation are quite good.
Then, let's rank the excellent level of domestic suspense dramas in mid-2022.
" Jiang Zhaoliang " at the beginning of the year, "The Disappearing Child" in the middle of the year, the domestic suspense drama is getting better and better
The last on the list is "The Disappearing Child", this drama is not bad , but whether it is the popularity of the broadcast, the data, or the final evaluation, this drama is a bit unpopular. It belongs to the small and sophisticated type in the domestic drama market, but it is a bit regrettable. This drama
reminds me personally of "Jiang Zhao Liming" at the beginning of the year, but that one was unfinished and this one was not mature enough.
This drama starring Tong Dawei , Wei Chen , Yu Wenwen, Li Sidani , etc., three clues, the emotional, moral, social and legal aspects of several families and people led by the disappearance of a child in the corridor entanglements.
Tong Dawei's performance in his true colors is quite satisfactory again, and Li Sheng's performance is very good, and he interprets the anxiety of his mother very well. At first, the policewoman played by Li Sidani felt a little suspicious and suspicious of everything. As the plot unfolded, it was discovered that the policewoman's logical reasoning ability was really good. She was so sassy when she was brainstorming, and it was rare for Li Sidani to wear a normal uniform and basically make an appearance without makeup. , Wei Chen did not hesitate to sacrifice his image to create a character, which was the most pleasant surprise.
The show looks good on the whole, but the shooting technique and rhythm are a bit out of tune. The use of the lens and the tone of the whole show are still good, and I like the lack of filters. If I want to talk about the shortcomings, it is that the show is too faithful to the original, almost copying the original.
There are too many plots in the original book that keep flashing back to express some emotions. As a result, the screenwriter really did not cut down and merged them all. This way, the shooting is really superfluous, and it reduces the tension of the suspenseful plot all of a sudden. Spend. Of course, there is no major problem overall. The only disadvantage is that there are too many so-called flashback plots to reflect and reflect on various problems, which reduces the viewing experience.
However, it is understandable that this original work is a work of socialist , and this is also a good socialist suspense drama.
are also domestic police and bandit dramas. Comparing "Punishment" and "Ice Rain and Fire", the difference comes out.
Let's put these two dramas together, because strictly speaking, these two dramas are of similar domestic level. The investment should be about the same. One of the director team handed over " Ice Breaker ", the other handed over " Black and White Restricted Zone ", " Ace Troop " and other works, the cast is a popular niche with Mesozoic Powerful actor.
, especially the supporting cast, are also very luxurious. "Ice Rain and Fire" includes Guo Xiaoting , Wang Jinsong , Liu Yijun , Zhang Zhijian , Gong Lei , Wang Xiuzhu , Ai Dong and so on. And "Punishment" includes Gai Yuexi , Li Youbin , Cheng Yu , Fu Chengpeng , Xu Honghao , Sun Xun, full stop and so on.
sees from the theme that "Ice Rain and Fire" is a police and bandit anti-drug drama, while "Punishment" is a police and bandit anti-crime drama. The two dramas
are currently on Douban 7.3, and "Punishment" Douban 7.2. Even if the credibility of the Douban score is not high, I personally think that the overall level of the two dramas is indeed similar.
"Ice Rain and Fire" is more suspenseful and suspicious of the two male protagonists, game and confrontation. In every plot, the foreshadowing of the character creation is clearly explained. The audience will definitely feel that a certain behavior is unreasonable from the perspective of God, but everyone's behavior in the play is within the scope of their own personalities, and the development of the case is shredded. towards.
The villain of this drama is not only IQ online, but even feels a little too online! The rhythm is very tight, the texture is also very good, and the young actors and the old actors are quite sparkly. If
wants to talk about the shortcomings, I personally think that the foreshadowing in the early stage is too complicated and the suspense is too heavy. In the early stage, everyone except the male protagonist was like an undercover agent, and the foreshadowing of the case three years ago and 20 years ago was also great, especially when the male protagonist wanted to help Wu Zhenfeng, while suspecting that there were internal ghosts and other plots. When the results of
are in the middle of the broadcast, you will find that the police station and the two male protagonists are engaged in internal friction. As long as the two male protagonists sit down calmly and say a few more words about what they know, the case is basically solved, and the same is true for the police. In the early stage of
, there was definitely a protective umbrella in the police station, but it turned out that there was no umbrella at all. In the middle and late stage, it is all about the private relationship between the two male protagonists, including drug dealers and Mengka, and then to Wanjia and a group of people emotionally pulling these things. Its logic still works, but there are two reasons for the lack of a big explosion.
One is the suspenseful feeling that the front is too heavy to guess the ghost, the two male protagonists are fighting infighting, plus many flashbacks, memories and other scenes in the early stage, there is some confusion in the editing and clues, which makes ordinary viewers a little confused .
turned out to be the two male protagonists in the middle and late stages. The drug dealers and the villain group all disintegrated the suspense in the early stage because of family grievances, resulting in a bit of a split between the front and rear scripts.
"Punishment" I believe there is no need to talk about it. In the early stage, when it was close to 20 episodes, there were many reversals, and the rhythm was fast. Different from the ghost guessing in "Ice Rain and Fire", this is to show that there are ghosts in the police force and high-level government, and the people who began to disappear in Changwu have a wall of files, a drawer of mobile phones in Mr. Zhao, and a large protective umbrella under the ancestral hall.
These started at a fast pace, Zhao Laosan's yacht exploded, leaving evidence, Zhao Laosi came back to clean up Zhao Lao Er. Anyway, all kinds of reversal plots, family infighting and inner ghosts are rampant, it is really cool to watch. But the disadvantage is that there are too many loopholes in details, bugs and places that cannot stand scrutiny.
For example, Chang Zheng killed the chief of the police, and the police are not wanted if they are not held accountable. You have to act like a fake, and the protagonist can still be handsome everywhere. The black boss is getting angry at the juncture of running away in order to make a name for himself, and a fool would not go looking for something like this. In the end, the Zhao family was convicted and the case was solved based on the USB flash drive left by Zhao Er and He Fei and the commemorative video.
that dared to start, the two task forces, the bright and the dark, did nothing. If it hadn't happened to stay and found the USB flash drive, wouldn't the Zhao family have the last laugh?
In 2022, the domestic suspense drama will explode? These two are not inferior to " Undocumented Crimes ", " White Night Chase ",
, which are the best domestic suspense dramas in the middle of this year. I personally think they are "The Coward" and "Drowning Out of Court". The Douban ratings of these two dramas are almost the same, "The Coward" is 7.7, "Outside Court" is 7.6, the ratings are similar, but I think these two dramas are well done.
Of course, these two dramas have similar shortcomings. The 16th episode at the end of "The Coward" was obviously made to pass the review. The reason is probably that people do not advocate personal revenge. You are dumb, if you die, you have to live the last episode. Come and put me in jail, and the rest will have a big reunion.
This is also a social faction, a youth + suspense drama. There are three or four timelines in this drama, from 1999 to 2000, the warm youth of youth, then to the suspense of the heroine's death investigation in 2001, and finally to 2010, hidden in the dark.revenge.
But the production of this drama is very good, the cold Northeast winter, the fireworks under the camera, the vigor of youth, and then the anger during the conflict and the suspenseful atmosphere during the investigation are all top domestic suspense dramas. Moreover, the characters, the plot advancement, and the drama conflict are all filmed very delicately, and there is no abrupt and illogical place.
These outbreaks under the death of the heroine Huang Shu and the revenge of the hero in the last two episodes are extremely shocking.
Actually, I think this show is not inferior to the same socialist "Undocumented Crime" in terms of quality, or slightly inferior to "The Hidden Corner of " and "The Silent Truth of ", but it is still the top domestic It's a social suspense drama, but unfortunately it is this environment, and finally an extra episode has to be added.
"Outside Court" is divided into two parts. The first part, "Outside Court Blind Spot", the six episodes is a cool drama, with loopholes, deletions, re-dubbing and scrutiny. There are also quite a few places, but the second half The 14 episodes of "Drowning Out of Court" are of high quality, and although the ending isn't amazing enough, this drama is the highest quality legal drama I've ever seen in China.
"Out of Court" is also the last episode. It's a bit simple to reveal the truth, and many things are not fully explained.
However, this "Drowning Man" is not only true to the workplace, ecology, system, and legal affairs of Chinese lawyers, but also discusses a lot of lawyers, jurisprudence, social and moral boundaries. The characters of the major protagonists in the show are very distinct, and the actors do not have traffic stars, and their acting skills are also very good.
This show is really too much. I watched it several times, and every time I can understand new details, this show really doesn't have any nonsense and waste scenes. Of course, the last episode is still a bit rough .
No matter what, this drama is the most conscientious domestic legal drama I have ever watched.
5 suspense dramas broke out, and domestic dramas need more "Punishment" and "Gone Child"
2022 is already the year of the outbreak of domestic suspense dramas. If there are several high-quality works at the end of the year, this year will be domestic The new year of suspense dramas, " Begins " and " Crime Hunting Guide " at the beginning of the year, have been listed above in the middle of the year. If you look at the subject matter alone, there are traditional TV dramas like "Ice Rain and Fire" and "Punishment".
"The Coward" and "The Disappearing Child" are more similar to the social factions of these years, and each has a mixed theme. In fact, domestic suspense dramas have only begun to develop rapidly after 2015. It is the online drama " Diablo " "After " Psychological Crime ", in 2017, " River God ", "White Night Chase" and "Undocumented Crime" three carriages laid the foundation. After several years of development, we ushered in 2020. "The Corner" and "The Silent Truth" broke out.
This year's domestic suspense dramas are not comparable to these two dramas in terms of quality, word of mouth and popularity, but they are rich in subject matter, genre and content, which also proves the development of domestic suspense dramas. Ushered in a new stage of the outbreak.
Finally, I hope to contribute better domestic suspense dramas in the second half of the year, and domestic dramas are getting better and better!
