Is urban drama finally going to stand up?
As an indispensable genre in Chinese dramas, urban themes have also been brilliant in the domestic drama market.
However, in the past two years, bad dramas such as "小 giving up ", "All the Way to the Sun", and "Love as a Camp" have impacted the market, causing the reputation of this subject to drop again and again.
Fortunately, this year’s domestic urban dramas are quite impressive.
From "If Running Is My Life" at the beginning of the year to " The Story of a Rose " in the summer season, to the current popular " You are more beautiful than the starlight " and " Little Couple ", urban dramas have continued one after another. Ushering in a hot sale, I am finally proud.
This is not the end yet, there are still too many ruthless dramas in the waiting list.
For example, "The 180 Days Restart Plan" starring Wu Yue and Zhou Yutong tells the story of the joys and sorrows of a reorganized family, taking the audience to relive the warmth of family again.
However, there has been no good news about the scheduled release of this drama, but another new drama has debuted first.
Just hearing the name is full of atmosphere. After watching the trailer, I was immediately attracted to it. It seems that urban themes are about to usher in the king again!
Marriage in "Battle"? The plot is too hardcore
"My Battle with Marriage" tells the story of public interest lawyer Ning Yue (played by Cai Wenjing) who has been living under the control of her husband Hu Cheng ( Feng Shaofeng ) without knowing it.
An accident made Ning Yue gradually understand her husband's false face. In order to escape from the prison of marriage, Ning Yue began a journey of "self-rescue", and the "battle" between her and her husband about marriage also completely started.
Just reading the story introduction is enough to get a glimpse of the excitement of the show. It is a divorce battle about anti-control. Such an entry point is so novel.
And the trailer of the show is full of interesting points, with two hooks that made me unable to take my eyes away.
The first hook: the patron saint becomes the "warden".
Nowadays, most urban dramas are keen on filming the various unbearable situations between the couple in marriage, including cheating, mistresses, and induced pregnancy. All kinds of weird anecdotes abound, and the bloody plots make people tired of watching them.
The new drama is so extraordinary. The marital conflicts it shows include no cheating, no mistresses, and no in-laws looking for trouble anytime and anywhere.
In Ning Yue's eyes, she and her husband lived a happy life. Hu Cheng was very considerate to her, and his son was also very considerate.
After five years of marriage, Ning Yue has been immersed in a happy family atmosphere.
However, the illusion will eventually be exposed one day. Hu Cheng, who is called the patron saint by his son, actually has an extreme desire to control his wife.
"It's okay to want freedom, but it must be given by him."
When Zhou Quan's hypocritical mask was exposed, Ning Yue suddenly realized that she had been living under the control of her husband. Inside a glass cover, he is monitored by a pair of eyes.
It’s so exciting. With such a plot, just watching the trailer will make people’s blood pressure soar.
Isn’t this the marriage version of “The Truman Show”!
The shackles in the name of love bind Ning Yue's throat. How to break through this illusion and find her true self will undoubtedly be the most exciting plot of this drama.
The second hook: spy marriage.
Now that she has discovered her husband’s abnormal desire for control, the next step must be to end this abnormal marriage.
However, getting a divorce is not an easy matter.
When the family becomes a cage, when thoughtfulness makes people sit on pins and needles, Ning Yue and Zhou Quan are like two camps on the battlefield, constantly testing each other, and finally you come and I formally declare war.
Monitoring, controlling, investigating, questioning, this marriage battle has just begun.
It can be said that "My Battle with Marriage" is definitely a rare urban emotional drama that can tell a story that is thrilling and full of suspense. It would be a pity not to follow it.
Feng Shaofeng leads the cast, and the cast is so amazing.
Urban emotional dramas require actors with superb acting skills to create plump and three-dimensional characters. The director of "My Battle with Marriage" is so good at casting, just looking at the cast is enough to make you fall for it.
ranks first, Feng Shaofeng.
As long as you see Feng Shaofeng's face, the characters he has played will definitely come to everyone's mind.
The eighth prince in "Palace" and Gu Tingye in "Do You Know Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Slender"? Best actor Feng Shaofeng's acting skills are superb. He can portray the emotions of the characters very fully.
In the new drama, Feng Shaofeng plays the extremely controlling husband Hu Cheng.
When he heard that his wife wanted a divorce, Hu Cheng directly tore off his mask and threatened the other party with a ferocious face. There was strong anger in his eyes, and his extreme emotions were chilling.
Just watching the trailer, Feng Shaofeng has already filled up the tension of his role. I believe that he will bring more exciting highlights to the audience in the feature film, and we are looking forward to it.
ranked second, Cai Wenjing.
The powerful actress Cai Wenjing has given quite wonderful performances in dramas such as "Under the Sun", "bottomline", "Pretending to Be Apocalypse", but her popularity has always been tepid, which is a pity.
In "Apocalypse of Pretending", Cai Wenjing vividly played the helplessness and sadness of the character Tang Ying.
She accurately conveyed the inner conflicts and emotional changes of an ordinary migrant worker to the audience. Her acting skills are so brilliant.
In the new drama, the role of Ning Yue seems to be tailor-made for Cai Wenjing. Her stubborn and unyielding soul matches Cai Wenjing. The temperament coincides with each other. In the trailer of
, Ning Yue showed no fear in her eyes when facing her husband who was tearing her face apart. Her cold and serious expression looked like she was extremely capable of fighting.
The role of Cai Wenjing is not difficult to play. I believe that this role will definitely shine in her hands.
ranked third, Liu Yitong.
Liu Yitong, the "Second Generation Star", has never been bad at acting, but he has always lacked a role that made him popular.
Finally he waited. In
's new drama, Liu Yitong plays Hu Hubo. He looks like a business elite in suits and ties, but his young face still has a childish look.
I wonder how Liu Yitong will appear this time? So curious.
ranked fourth, Liu Jia.
Liu Jia, a national first-class actor, is definitely a "ballast stone" in Chinese dramas.
In dramas such as "Genius Basics", " Walking into the Wind ", "Go Where the Wind Winds" and other dramas, veteran actors can improve the acting quality of the entire drama as soon as they appear.
joined the new drama "My Battle with Marriage" this time, and his acting skills are solid.
fifth place, Cao Lei.
Cao Lei is definitely good at shaping characters. The Mr. Lu Xun he played in "The Awakening Age" was evaluated by the audience as "the ideal Lu Xun", which shows how superb Cao Lei's acting skills are.
This time in the new drama, the character he plays, Lao Mo, looks gentle and gentle. I wonder what kind of story is behind it? It seems like the new drama has a lot of good things going on.
In addition, Xing Zhaolin, Huang Weide, Hu Jing, He Gang and other powerful actors will contribute outstanding performances in the play. This drama of group portraits is absolutely wonderful.
Conclusion
In the past, when urban dramas were mentioned, the audience could not help but think of bad labels such as "bloody", "suspended", "outrageous", etc. This caused the reputation of urban dramas, which was once the trump card of national dramas, to plummet.
But this year, there is a faint trend of "standing up" in urban dramas.
First, "If Running Is My Life" became a small hit, and then "Rose Story" achieved excellent results.
The current broadcasts of "Little Couple" and "Secret Romance" have raised the reputation of this theme to a higher level, "killing" a bloody road in the summer season where costume dramas dominate.
With such a strong background, I believe that as long as "My Battle with Marriage" is officially finalized and successfully broadcast, it will definitely become the next outstanding hit drama with urban themes.
So are you looking forward to the broadcast of this drama?
