" A Dream of Red Mansions: A Good Marriage " is released.
However, this "New Red Mansion", directed by Hu Mei, launched in 2018 and passed the review in 2020, received "full negative reviews" in the first round.
Some people described it as "vicious" and worse than an online short drama.
Some people said it was "bizarre".
Someone was laughed out of anger.
Some people were surprisingly angry after reading it.
simply means "nothing is right" and is very suitable for "wasting money".
Li Shaohong , who was criticized by netizens from time to time because he directed "Copper Coin Front Page", was also "recognized" because of the release of Hu Mei's version.
Some netizens said that after reading this version, they realized that Li Shaohong's photography was quite good and it can be called a classic.
So, what is the problem with the Hu Mei version?
In terms of strength, Hu Mei has directed classic dramas such as " Yongzheng Dynasty " and "Emperor Wu of Han"; in terms of intention, she once said at the film's opening ceremony that she had filmed the movie " Dream of Red Mansions " more than 10 years ago "The idea of "; in terms of casting, the actors who played "Bao Dai Chai" at that time were also relatively close to the age of the characters.
However, the feature film after its release proved that the above is far from enough.
It is true that famous scenes such as Bao Dai’s first meeting, Yuan Fei’s wedding ceremony, Taixu illusion, wood and stone alliance, golden and jade marriage mentioned in the previous promotions are all present, and even the scene of “Jiao Da is drunk” has been restored.
However, the total length of the video is only 115 minutes.
has a limited duration but a lot of scenes, and the editing is not brilliant enough, causing the story to be fragmented due to jumps, turning it into a collage version of the short video, with only the beginning and ending, but no transfer, giving people the feeling of "wanting to shoot everything" It feels like I went in and didn’t understand anything.”
Audiences who even gave it four-star reviews said that "it wants love but not love, and it wants power but not machination."
But what’s even more unacceptable than the fragmented story is that almost all the members are OOC, like a cosplay that’s being staged.
Lin Daiyu, whose talent and appearance are rare in the world, is the core soul character of "A Dream of Red Mansions".
In order to show her beauty, Hu Mei used a lot of light and shadow in the scene of "Bao Dai first met". Although it is understandable that the "glowing sister Lin" is what she looks like in Jia Baoyu's eyes, this method of expression is also really old-fashioned.
Lin Daiyu when she is not shining, and the settings in the original work are not comparable to . is like , "a love brain who loses her temper and doesn't know the heights of the world", and "a high school girl who bullies everyone indiscriminately when she is unhappy" .
If Gonghua doesn’t like it, throw it away; if she doesn’t like the bracelet given by Baoyu, throw it away.
Sister Lin’s arrogance was treated as rude.
In the scene "Reading the West Chamber Together", although the original lines were retained, Jia Baoyu's words were given to Lin Daiyu. Can you imagine her describing herself to Baoyu as "beautiful as a country" and "sorrowful and sick"?
Sister Lin was ruined by the reform, and Brother Bao was also accused of being "like a fool". He was only okay when he smiled.
The two soul characters were criticized, and none of the other characters could stand up.
Xue Baochai, who has a beautiful appearance and elegant manners, was mistaken for Ying'er by netizens, and was also accused of having a "scheming and jealous expression throughout the whole process."
Moreover, a scene of "Hazy Back Naked Bathing" was arranged.
Wang Xifeng seems to be "trying to imitate the villain in "Do You Know"". Not only does she lack the luxury and beauty that she should have, but she also doesn't have the style of Jia Fulian's second wife. When she takes a sip of watermelon, she always looks like she's throwing it away. Wink.
Even the Zhou Rui family called Mrs. Wang "Sister Feng" in front of her.
Aunt Xue is like a darkened version from the Gongdou online drama. Her main job is to be a matchmaker, and when she appears, she wants to pair up the unsuccessful Xue Baochai and Jia Baoyu.
Although Jia Huan is not favored, as the young master of the Jia family, he will not have enough to eat. He has to go to the kitchen to steal food and be insulted by the servants; Jia Lian has to take off half naked when he comes to wash his face; Rong Ning's second mansion During a meeting, poor relatives insulted Jia Zhen in public.
When Jia Yuanchun came out of the palace to visit her relatives, Jia Zheng called her "son" and was called by her best name by her brothers and wives; although Qin Keqing's appearance was that of a passerby, the scene was treated to be pornographic, and she got Jia Baoyu drunk. Go back to your room.
Ding Jiali’s Grandma Liu looks round and strong, with no trace of a poor family at all. It’s hard to say that Lu Yan’s Jia Mu has both physical and mental qualities.
There are countless flaws like this, which can make the original author angry. Almost "every minute of the 115-minute film is a disaster for people who have read "Dream of Red Mansions"", turning it into a movie full of youthful pain. Fantasy ancient puppet fairy drama.
The only thing worthy of recognition may be the visual effects.
Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that the comment section of "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Beautiful Marriage" received one star. The few who rated it four or five stars seemed "courageous".
