watched the trailer and started " Little Days " with great interest, but the plots of the first few episodes were shocking. Is this really a family ethics drama in 2024?
The mother-in-law was doing laundry and found a hotel invoice in her daughter-in-law's pocket. She immediately went to look through her daughter-in-law's bag, and sure enough, she found more invoices. So she went to her daughter-in-law's company in anger and told the world about the "family scandal". What happened? Is it the mother-in-law or the stepmother sent by the screenwriter?
Netizen comments on "Little Days"
I have long discovered that my daughter-in-law has signs of buying high-imitation bags. I didn't tell them sooner or later, but I decided to show off the suspected fake bag handed over by my daughter-in-law at the dinner table where the parents were meeting. Everyone's noodles were thrown into the fish soup. Are they here to eat or to cause trouble?
There is also a strange father-in-law who came from afar. He repeatedly prevented his daughter-in-law from coming to Taiwan and set 24 house rules. However, the daughter-in-law, who is usually not easy to mess with, did not explode on the spot. Is the abnormal reaction just to prove that the tutor is good? ?
Contradictions come one after another, no matter who doesn't say a word, it is very suitable for short video marketing. But the pleasure brought by the conflict cannot hide the loopholes in the logic.
The mother-in-law discovered the hotel invoice in her daughter-in-law's pocket, which led to the "unexpected incident", which made people wonder: Why did the couple need to issue invoices when they stayed in the hotel? They also kept the invoices for a year. Who should they ask for reimbursement?
You can say that this couple is not living a happy life, but there are countless examples of lavish spending - staying in a hotel for 800 yuan for two hours, driving a mid-to-high-end car, frequently treating colleagues to afternoon tea, spending nearly 2,000 yuan on a meal, and ruining their lives. I didn’t hesitate to double the compensation and bought two brand-name bags for Mother’s Day. However, they are high-spending people who are excited about the "house". They want to change the house but cannot, and the couple's combined savings are not as good as that of a single female best friend. Dare I ask the screenwriter, what kind of people's lives do they represent?
Mismatched marriages are common in movies and TV dramas. There are many examples of rich girls who are temporarily carried away by love and hold hands with "Phoenix men" regardless of their parents' obstruction. However, people like Gu Moli are still crowded in the same room after seven years of marriage. In a house with one living room, the only bedroom was given to the mother-in-law. The couple squeezed into the balcony and slept in bunk beds. This was the first time the audience saw this. Moreover, Gu Moli seems not to be trifled with, but whenever her mother-in-law and father-in-law make things difficult for her, and her husband does not stand up for her, she becomes mute again, and the audience laments her misfortune and becomes angry with her. She could bear it when her parents bought a house without her name on it. When her parents bought a house for her and only had her name on it, she complained about her husband. After all these actions, with such a "love brain", she was afraid that Wang Baochuan would give it to her if he saw it. Give way to the top of the mountain.
The heroine is not the only one with weak characters. Every character seems to be created to create topics.
Because of her role as the "evil mother-in-law", Sarina's filter in "人世" was simply shattered. This mother-in-law is stingy and stingy. Whenever she spends money, she has to ask how much she spent. When she goes to a coffee shop, she asks for free water. However, she ignores her daughter-in-law's job and face, destroys her single eyelids with her own hands and lives her life without even blinking. It is common for people to pick up sesame seeds and throw away watermelons, but it is not common for people to lose money and remain blushing without changing their expressions. They live like a fake person.
Father-in-law Zhu Dali kept talking about the fifty-square-meter house he bought for his children, down to one decimal place. Obviously there is a huge gap between his financial resources and the woman's family, but he cannot lose at all in terms of attitude. He wants to establish family rules for his daughter-in-law and yell at his son who cannot control his daughter-in-law. On the surface, it is to prevent the young couple from selling their house, but in fact it is more like a trigger for divorce between the son and daughter-in-law. In front of Zhu Dali, who is known as the "young man from the Qing Dynasty" by the audience, the weird dads such as Su Daqiang and Qiao have to give in.
And Chen Xiao, who was "stamped" for his acting skills in " Meng Hua Lu " and "The Road of Life", also received a lot of criticism for his role as "Doting Wife Husband" Zhu Jincao. The characters in the play watched He seems to be a good husband, but in fact he is best at painting pie. His characters are thin and his logic is insufficient, resulting in Chen Xiao's lack of emotional tension in the performance of conflict scenes. Tong Yao has also been questioned because of his inability to jump out of his comfort zone. The three characters played by Gu Moli, Gu Jia and Gu Qingyu in recent years are not only surnamed "Gu", but also have similar character characteristics. They have already won the title of "Magnolia" Will Tong Yao, who won the Best Actress award, go to the dark side of being an "urban girl"?
That’s not all. The drama also features the classic scenes of urban dramas such as the female colleague’s repeated trappings, the ex-hero’s reluctance to save the beauty, the husband’s brother and the wife’s best friend getting together, etc., which made the audience tired of it. The leftover rice was reheated and served to the table. If you have to find some innovation, the small theater interspersed in the play can barely count. Feedback is a matter of opinion.
The audience is not easy to fool. The director and screenwriter's presentation of ordinary people's lives makes viewers with a little life experience feel as ungrounded as a castle in the air. This is enough to prove that the conflict-creating routines commonly seen in film and television dramas It can no longer satisfy the appetite of the current audience. The subject matter is a good one, and the actors are also good actors, but it’s hard for a good wife to make a living without rice. Times are changing, and the problems encountered by every family are also changing. In addition to the dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and buying and selling houses, are there any other topics worthy of discussion in family dramas?
"Little Days" has only aired a few episodes and has already exposed many problems, which is enough to prove that without the support of a good script, no matter how high-end ingredients are, it can only taste like fast food. I would like to advise all film and television celebrities that real art can be higher than life only if it is based on life. If it is too far away from the lives of ordinary people, don't expect to resonate with the audience.
