The consequence of the cold winter in film and television is that the streamlining of costume dramas is becoming more and more serious. After the mosquito net style in "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" was complained to the point of leaving the body intact, domestic costume dramas The show fell into another strange circle - cheap western fantasy style.

Eastern fantasy is the current trend in costume dramas, but more and more costume dramas are falling in love with the Western fantasy style.

From "Long Moon Ember" to "Fox Fairy Matchmaker", the configuration of s+ matches nondescript ancient costumes. Our costume dramas have no ancient charm. No matter how good the cast is, it will only make the audience feel aesthetic fatigue.

Recently, the TV series "Muxu Ci" starring Dilraba and Chen Feiyu has been launched strongly. With Dilraba's help, this drama is destined to be a bloody one from the project to the launch.

Before the TV series is officially launched, the audience is also looking forward to the official announcement of the show.

The original work "Lamp in the Day" tells the story of the King of Ghosts and the Young General. Although Di Lieba and Chen Feiyu are not very compatible, the characters of Di Lieba and the female Ghost King are very compatible. It is this extremely oppressive character attribute that makes many netizens full of expectations for makeup.

After all, the audience is really tired of watching the story of the emperor and silly Baitian.

But I didn’t expect that the crew had been hiding the heroine’s appearance since the filming started. I thought she was holding back a big problem, but it turned out that she had a big problem.

Reba’s first look is a cheap feather outfit full of online game feel. At first glance, Reba’s look is quite exquisite, but the only beauty of this look lies in Reba’s thick face and whitened filter. mirror.

Although this look is completely different from the color scheme of "Fox Fairy Matchmaker", the style of the clothes is exactly the same. Only after seeing the makeup team did I know that Huang Wei, the teacher who did the look for "Muxu Ci" this time, is also the same. The styling team of "Fox Fairy Little Matchmaker" and "Long Moon Ember".

For Reba, the styles and filters are really a drag, not a blessing. And being able to make makeup like this actually shows the aesthetic level of the crew to a certain extent. Although the original work "Lamp in the Day" does not explicitly mention makeup, it does mention clothing such as Quju. According to this idea, Look, the makeup in "Mu Xu Ci" should be more similar to the Warring States period costume.

Even fans’ expectations for "Mu Xu Ci" are based on the style of Oriental Liaozhai. After being materialized, it is actually the route of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

But from the current point of view, "Muxu Ci" does not have any oriental charm. The oriental ghost king that the audience expected is now like a crow. Not only does the costume style make people's heads grow bigger, but this kind of ancient costume + exposed arms is too cheap to be seen. .

If it weren’t for the faces of Chen Feiyu and Reba, this look would really look like a third-rate online drama.

Of course, if you look at it with a more optimistic attitude, this crow suit is only the heroine’s first one. Maybe there will be makeup that is more suitable for the heroine in the future.

However, this idea is basically self-deception, because Huang Wei’s style is very obvious. Except for "Mu Xuci", all her looks are Western fantasy style costumes that are inseparable from feathers. Not only is she hindered by makeup, Not only Reba, but also Bailu, Chen Duling and so on.

The styling went in the wrong direction, which basically ruined the appeal of "Mu Xu Ci". However, the combination and status of the actors were not eye-catching enough.

Reba and Chen Feiyu’s cp sense is too weak. Even the ghost king and the young general should be a combination of a glamorous goddess and a tough boy. Reba's facial features can be considered beautiful, but her make-up is old-fashioned. This middle-parted hairstyle really makes her forehead look bald, making her look older all of a sudden.

It can be seen in the dynamic video that is neither refined nor overly glamorous. This set of makeup and hair does not highlight Reba’s European and American features, but it highlights her old-fashioned look. Looking at Reba at this moment, I really feel like I'm having a vision of the huge power in "The Little Matchmaker".

Chen Feiyu is 24 years old, and Reba, 32, is 8 years older than Chen Feiyu. When the two were in the same frame, Chen Feiyu couldn't suppress Reba's age and aura. Such a configuration of a sibling relationship. Looks very much like my aunt and nephew.

The key point is that this is the effect of adding a thick layer of filters. Who knows whether "Muxu Ci" will become "Fox Demon Matchmaker 2.0". The main film will directly give the audience a critical hit of mother-son love.

On the one hand, the actor's suitability is not high, but on the other hand, Chen Feiyu's own condition is also difficult to evaluate.

When "Muxu Ci" was just officially announced, Chen Feiyu and Reba actually had a red carpet scene together. At that time, Chen Feiyu was in very good condition. Although the CP feeling between the two of them when they were on the same screen was not strong, they were at least considered male. Handsome and beautiful.

But who knew where Chen Feiyu would go to make steamed buns in just a few months? On the first day of filming of "Muxu Ci", he changed from a noble son with broad shoulders and narrow waist to a bloated second son.

With the same ancient costume look, Chen Xiao looks like a slouchy young man from an aristocratic family when he puts it on, but Chen Feiyu looks like a bloated old man when he puts it on. This kind of official uniform of the Song Dynasty is actually designed to be wide. The wider the clothing, the more it can highlight the wearer. Lazy and relaxed nobility.

As for Chen Feiyu's suit, not only did the waistband of his pants almost reach his chest, he also wore it with a particularly tight feeling. You might say that it’s okay for him to gain muscle in order to play the old general well, but why can’t he hide his double chin?

Dilireba herself is a thin-boned beauty. Her facial features are very oppressive, and her jawline is so clear that it is terrifying. As the male protagonist Chen Feiyu, his native condition is that he has a strong sense of niche, and he can still indulge in this situation. Since I have gained weight, I can only say that "Muxu Ci" is worrying.

When you click on the relevant comments of "Muxu Ci", you can see that without the fan filter, most passers-by are dissatisfied with this set of looks. Some people complained that is "like a mobile game promotion that you would never click on normally." , Some people harshly commented "The spoilers and filters are tacky, and you will find it tacky and ugly when the drama is aired." . Netizens with more venomous tongues directly named the essence, bluntly saying that this is "The Old Demon of Montenegro and the Guards" ".

It can also be seen from the makeup of "Muxu Ci" that the more large-scale film and television dramas are now, the easier it is to overturn the makeup. Either the male and female protagonists are not compatible with each other, or some popular makeup from the same period has been replaced. Copy and paste the style one by one.

But in fact, from low-cost film and television dramas such as "In the Clouds", we can see the care of makeup. The actor's makeup should not only serve the aesthetics of the plot, but also serve the actor's appearance and style.

Like the makeup that appears in "Mu Xuci", it completely drags down the aesthetics of the plot and the image of the actors. But this kind of ancient puppet show with emotional color is all about handsome men and beautiful women.

I can only say that this "Muxu Ci", which has just been launched, was half-inspiring just by looking at the makeup and makeup. The age gap between the male and female protagonists in the same frame is even more awkward.

Finally, what do you think of the makeup of "Mu Xuci"? Join the discussion in the comments section.
