TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy" should be regarded as a classic among the ancient costume dramas of Sword and Fairy. When the first part of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" premiered, the chic and comfortable Li Xiaoyao fascinated thousands of girls, and Liu Yifei played Zhao Ling'er is smart and cute, and has become a goddess in the eyes of countless boys. Until now, the collaboration between the two of them has been called the pinnacle of appearance and has always been difficult to surpass.
Later, "Legend of Sword and Fairy III" co-starring Yang Mi , Hu Ge , Tang Yan , Liu Shishi and others was broadcast, and once again became a classic in the eyes of a generation of viewers. The reason why
classics become classics is because they happened to be loved by everyone at a specific point in time. Audiences have always discussed that classics are difficult to surpass, but in fact there is nothing wrong with remaking classics. If you want to successfully continue classics, you need to be consistent with them. Keep pace with the times and incorporate some fresh elements as the times change.
"Legend of Sword and Fairy" co-starring Chen Zheyuan and Ju Jingyi has also met with everyone. Many viewers took a wait-and-see attitude when they heard that the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" series was going to be filmed, because there have been too many remakes of classic IPs over the years. Many times, but very few succeed.
The two actors must have been under a lot of pressure when they collaborated on this drama. After all, too many viewers expressed disapproval.
Before this drama was broadcast, the male and female protagonists were involved in controversy over their roles. Ju Jingyi has starred in many costume dramas of the same type over the years, but none of them left a deep impression on the audience. Gradually Many of her works have also been forgotten by the audience.
Before Ju Jingyi and Chen Zheyuan confirmed their cooperation, the drama company had always promoted Ju Jingyi as the heroine. However, when the work was launched, the drama team tried to blur the role.
Because Chen Zheyuan starred in the popular IP-adapted sweet pet drama "Secretly Can't Hide" last year, he was listed as a male star "to be exploded", and his popularity and traffic are also higher.
Before the drama aired, there was no winner in the battle for position. After the drama aired, the two protagonists began to compete in acting skills.
Ju Jingyi's acting skills in this drama still have not improved much, and as an idol-turned-actor, in the TV series broadcast at the same time, Yang Chaoyue's performance in "If Running Is My Life" was better It's better, and it's a big improvement compared to before.
The heroine Han Lingsha played by Ju Jingyi in the play is a relatively spiritual character. She has a curse on her that she will not live to be 20 years old, so she has always wanted to break this curse.
In comparison, Chen Zheyuan's role is more challenging. The contrast between the early and late stages of the male protagonist Yun Tianhe he plays is still very big. In the early stage, his character is a person who does not understand the world and is not familiar with the world. If If it is not handled well, it is very likely that the role will be interpreted in a dull manner.
This drama overall has a relatively fast pace. The first few episodes tell everyone about the life experience of the male protagonist and the acquaintance between the female protagonist and the male protagonist.
In fact, Han Lingsha has been deceiving Yun Tianhe in the early stage. She wants to use Yun Tianhe to get the Wangshu Sword, so that she can have a chance to break the curse of not living until the age of 20. However, Yun Tianhe is relatively simple and has always been trusting. Han Lingsha saved her several times.
The plot behind is roughly that Yuntianhe has been searching for the mystery of his life experience. The protagonist group also formed a small team and grew up along the way. In the process, they had estrangements and misunderstandings. Will they always trust each other and overcome difficulties together? Woolen cloth?
In the play, Han Lingsha, played by Ju Jingyi, has several key crying scenes, but after watching it, the audience felt that her crying scenes did not have a strong sense of substitution, and they did not even feel much emotion. Mood swings.
In addition, her makeup and style in this drama are very similar to those in other works. These have always been problems in Ju Jingyi's performance.
Chen Zheyuan's performance in this drama is not too amazing, because the male protagonist of the "Sword of Immortal" series has always been Hu Ge. Both Li Xiaoyao and Jingtian left a very deep impression on everyone, and Hu Ge When Song appeared in costume dramas, his appearance was very good, and he was once called a costume god.
So in comparison, Chen Zheyuan's appearance itself does not have much advantage, and no one seems to see any surprises in his acting skills. The reputation of this drama has not been very good since it was aired, and the plot of the story is not too good. The big highlight is that the performances of the male and female protagonists are also very average. From the audience's ratings, we can also see that one star accounts for a larger proportion. It is estimated that when Douban scores it next, it will not be too ideal.
Many costume dramas in recent years have the same problem. The production failed to make everyone feel sincerity, and the performance of the actors was also somewhat unsatisfactory, especially for benchmarking or remakes. The final effect of costume dramas in earlier years was even more It is a disgrace to itself, and its reputation is far from satisfactory. If you want to produce a classic and good drama, you still need to show sincerity, and the audience can feel it when they follow the drama.
