Sure enough, you can always trust Zhang Yimou! Although the
movie "Article 20" does not have the highest box office performance among current popular films, it has received rave reviews from passers-by and its Douban reputation score is 7.7, which shows the high level of public satisfaction.
This time during the Spring Festival, Zhang Yimou once again submitted a satisfactory answer.
The movie takes "justifiable defense" as its theme and conducts an in-depth analysis of law, reality, human relations, morality and other aspects. It can be said to have both scale and depth.
And the casting is very particular.
Among them, the joining of Liu Yaowen, a traffic niche, is quite controversial, but it is undeniable that young fans can come to watch the movie because of their idols, and have a new view on the matter of bravery for justice. This positive meaning is still not ignore.
Zhang Yimou played this move so beautifully.
But what’s more eye-catching is the actors in this movie. Many familiar actors from the crews of "The Long Season " and "Hurry Up" are here, and there are also acting celebrities. How can this be done? nice?
01
The acting skills of each are better than the others
In my opinion, this film is a battlefield where talented actors compete with each other in their acting skills. For a while, I really couldn’t tell who was better at acting.
ranks first, Lei Jiayin .
Being able to win the leading male role in two movies during the Spring Festival, Lei Jiayin really has something going for him.
In "Article 20", his character Han Ming provided most of the laughs, and many scenes were not deliberately funny, but full of a sense of life.
For example, he couldn't even lift a bucket of water in the office. I wonder how many shadows of middle-aged men he played?
Moreover, I started to sweat after walking two steps. It was obvious that my head was bruised, but I pretended to have a concussion and acted coquettishly with my wife. Every move made me feel happy.
If I want to say who can keep up with Lei Jiayin's performance, I think there is no one except Ma Li .
ranked second, Ma Li.
Before, Ma Li was like a "green leaf" setting off the red flowers beside Shen Teng.
But in this new movie she becomes a real "red flower".
Ma Li's performance is natural, quick to pick up lines, and even the rhythm of her lines is just right. I think when the audience saw the scene where her character Li Maojuan went to the detention center, they were all shocked.
It is said that Ma Li came up with the "smearing shit on the mouth" joke on the spot, and she came up with many similar jokes on the spot.
For example, the "magic touch" of First Love Li Kui made Lei Jiayin laugh out loud, but the director did not call it a block, but kept the scene.
It seems that Ma Li has also ushered in the era of taking the lead.
is third, Fan Wei .
How many viewers were surprised by the appearance of veteran drama star Fan Wei?
But this time his role no longer moved people, but instead made everyone feel angry.
The Kangcun bully played by Fan Wei can be arrogant when facing the court leaders. This arrogant and unreasonable attitude makes the image of a "local snake" vivid.
ranks fourth, Gao Ye.
Mesozoic actor Gao Ye is finally seen on the big screen!
In fact, she collaborated with Zhang Yimou in "The Hawthorn Tree" 13 years ago, but unfortunately her popularity has never been tepid.
This time she finally played a supporting role and became the third female lead. She also played a stubborn, tough but honest and kind-hearted female prosecutor that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It can be seen that the spring of good actors has arrived!
In addition, powerful actors such as Wang Xiao, Jiang Qiming, Aruna, and Pan Binlong also performed to their due level.
It's just that no drama can be perfect in casting. No, "Article 20" actually has a failed actor.
02
The acting skills are so good that it makes people laugh.
On such a big screen, any acting problems are obvious at a glance.
What's more, this movie is full of actors and actresses. In comparison, the strength of the young actors is embarrassing.
Xiaosheng Liu Yaowen's performance is obviously much more youthful, but what I didn't expect is that there are actors whose acting skills are so bad that it makes people laugh.
Zhang Guisheng's story line in the plot is not long, but his ending has a considerable impact on Han Ming.
Especially the words of Zhang Guisheng's underage daughter Yaya were shocking and enlightening, and finally made Han Ming wake up completely.
Therefore, this little girl has only a small role, but she plays a vital role in the development of the entire film, and can be regarded as a tear point.
However, seeing her crying so hard, even speaking her lines as if she were squeezing out toothpaste, it would be difficult for the audience to empathize with her.
The father went to petition and was involved in a car accident, mainly because his daughter could not let go of the past.
Logically speaking, Yaya's mood is grief-stricken, and the crying scene must express the character's despair, confusion, and regret.
But she only lowered her head, hummed the whole time, and had to say her lines word for word, just like memorizing the text.
For those who didn’t know, they thought it was an AI acting without any emotion being conveyed. Compared to Lei Jiayin next to him who was blaming himself, this little girl’s acting skills were really disappointing.
Some viewers may think that this is a new actor, and it is normal that he did not perform well in Zhang Yimou's role for the first time.
But in fact, it is the second time that Xu Jingya, who plays Yaya, has appeared in Zhang Yimou's film.
played the role of Lan Yu, the maid behind Qin Hui in " River Red ". However, this character did not speak much and the costumes were quite elegant, so she received some praise.
But this time Xu Jingya challenged such a difficult scene as a crying scene, and her acting skills were immediately exposed. Even a good scene was not played right.
An audience member said bluntly after watching it: "This little girl is the only part of the whole movie that I felt was off-script and didn't fit in."
Probably because she wanted to express her strength with a limited plot, but ended up using too much force and her acting was not emotional enough.
We don’t know whose daughter came to the set to experience life. Otherwise, with her looks and acting skills, it would be too outrageous to be selected as the "girl hunter".

Conclusion
Overall, "Article 20" is the movie that I think has the best acting quality among all Spring Festival movies.
The reason is very simple. There are many acting talents performing on the same stage, and it is difficult to think whether it looks good or not.
However, there was a rat excrement mixed into a pot of good porridge, and the joining of young Xiao Hua became a major failure. Not only did it not perform the highlight scenes, but it also failed to give enough emotions, which almost made the core of the movie untenable.
can only say that you will be punished by God for your strong support.
If you dare to act in Zhang Yimou's movie if you don't have the ability, you are seeking your own death, and your popularity with the audience is in danger.
But the movie is still in theaters right now. One person's failure is not enough to affect the quality of the movie. I still hope that the audience can go into the theater and feel the sincerity of this movie with their heart. I also hope that the box office results will not let down the love of so many big names. Act it out.
So who do you think has the worst acting in this movie?
