You should have watched all the new dramas launched by Yangba. They have both first-class directors and first-class actors. That's right, I'm talking about the contemporary urban drama "Flowers" directed by Wong Kar-Wai and starring Hu Ge.
The original novel of the same name of "Flowers" once won the Mao Dun Literary Award in one fell swoop.
This play revolves around a person named A Bao in the novel.
mainly tells the story of the early 1990s, in that glorious era when everyone was vying for the top, A Bao became Mr. Bao. He had succeeded and failed. The only thing that remained unchanged was the friendship and sincerity contained in him. real.
Logically speaking, it’s the director, the actors, and the script. It will definitely gain a lot of word-of-mouth popularity as soon as it starts airing.
However, the current ratings are indeed high, breaking 2.5 as soon as it started broadcasting.
But let’s take a look at everyone’s ratings and comments on a certain page. Good guy, Hu Ge’s “Flowers” has only been airing for 4 episodes and already received a flood of negative reviews. The reasons for negative reviews from viewers are surprisingly consistent.
01: The plot is not grounded enough
To be honest, before "Flowers" was officially launched, like most people, I thought it was about a man named A Bao, who grew up as an unknown junior and through his own efforts A story about working hard and becoming a big shot.
But, as soon as the feature film was released, people were immediately shocked. The male protagonist named A Bao who co-wrote it was at the top of the pyramid from the beginning.
Therefore, this creates a problem that most people are unwilling to see, that is, it is too suspended and not grounded enough. As we all know, today's audiences like to watch film and television works that have a strong sense of life and a strong sense of substitution.
The first four episodes of "Flowers" are all about the rich people's luxurious life in Shanghai. For ordinary people, this is neither interesting nor interesting.
02: The characters are not distinctive enough.
I have always heard that director Wang’s works should be watched slowly. Originally, I thought the story rhythm was too tight and could not be used at double speed.
But after watching "Flowers" this time, I really understood that "reading slowly" means that it takes a long time to understand. Take Miss Wang, played by Tang Yan, and Lingzi, played by Ma Yili, for example. Even if you watch four episodes, it is difficult to understand what kind of relationship they have with A Bao.
Of course, this is not the end. The man named Tao Tao who appears in the play is the good brother who lent A Bao 14,000 yuan in principal. After A Bao became rich, logically speaking, his net worth was small. It is said that he has several million, but he is still single and even lowers his mate selection requirements to divorced women. Could it be that Abao never gave him money? Otherwise, why would it be so miserable, or if there is really no compensation, then wouldn’t this conflict with Abao’s label of attaching great importance to love and justice?
03: The background is not explained directly enough
When browsing the comment area, the most common complaint I saw was that the plot of this drama is all driven by dialogue and narration, which makes the audience seem very tired.
But I think this part of the audience missed the point. The real flaw of "Flowers" is that it wants to talk about a lot of things, but it talks about each one very vaguely. In short, it can be finished in one minute. It has to It takes ten minutes to get people confused.
Let’s take Lao Fan’s identity and background as an example. It wasn’t until after watching the fourth episode that we realized that he was originally the owner of a clothing factory. This time he came to Shanghai to ask Abao to help him build his brand and sell his clothes.
In fact, Lao Fan's identity could be explained clearly in the second episode, but it was dragged to the fourth episode. No wonder some viewers said they couldn't understand it, they couldn't understand it at all.
The above are good guys. Hu Ge's "Flowers" has only been aired for 4 episodes and has received overwhelming negative reviews. The audience's reasons for negative reviews are surprisingly consistent with specific details. Everyone is welcome to leave a comment. See you next time.
