This drama has potential, but it has been scoured by the American drama template.
The depth of DC comics has always been online, and it is much higher and more complicated than Marvel (don’t talk to me about the movie, two different things), so the basic story setting is also very good, the author is actually a believer, and his belief in belief is still Quite right, because in the main storyline, Lucifer's settings are basically in line with the Bible, and there has always been a theme that tries to express beliefs beyond dogma: it's not that you are a believer if you repent and donate money, but that you have true trust in God in your heart. God’s arrangement is based on a leap of faith. If you are willing to believe in something that you can’t find or understand, and in the process, it’s still in this world causing you to pay a huge price (frustrations such as death of your relatives, etc.) In the play Lucifer is shown as a friend he lost in the process of exploring himself), and believes without a protective net (in fact, as far as I know, Christianity and Buddhism both explain beliefs in this way), then you will not go into heaven without being right. Far.
I personally think that in view of the cultural literacy limitations of the audience in the era, ancient religions must use a lot of metaphors, and it is actually very interesting to extract the reality behind the metaphors. The so-called leap of faith actually refers to the truth that humans are destined to be unable to recognize due to the limitations of their own species capabilities (for example, physically calculated to have a space higher than three-dimensional, but we are destined to be unable to perceive), and God’s plan refers to us In the existing three-dimensional real world, the universal experience of good and evil in human society, Buddhism and Christianity also place great emphasis on learning "goodwill" in the secular life. This is what Lucifer does in this play, and he is learning. And this learning process is painful for all believers, and God’s silence is often misunderstood and misunderstood by some people crudely thinking that God likes to tease people, but God’s role is not to punish evil and promote good, but to act. A spiritual support helps humans learn how to live better.
Therefore, many people say that the male lead of this drama is too weak and they mistakenly watched this movie as a magical movie. In fact, looking at the original setting, it is basically related to belief and learning to be a person.
The worst part of this film is that the US drama model is applied according to the template, and the branch plot is very predictable and very boring. Because the once-selling detective films have unified the universal formula: the male and female protagonists must stay in love and kill each other for a long time, and they must not go to bed until the last episode. . .
The course of Lucifer's change is the only thing worth watching, but it was completely ruined by the screenwriter. In addition, music must be praised. So the whole can only be relegated to the position of instant noodle drama.
split line
It feels like adding a star to watch the entire first season. In the second half of the season, the level has risen, and the theme of the detective part is more consistent with the male protagonist's mental journey (but still can't really see him as a detective drama). The main storyline has climaxes one after another, and it is not nonsense, and many details are very compelling.
For example, the setting of bad guys, I really like it a little, the kind of never-suffering foot is the root of all evil. The theme is also deliberately reinforced by lines: human evil is inherent, don't blame the devil, and don't blame God for inaction. This gives God's weak chicken a very high-level reason. In my opinion, this is probably the case in the real world.
Many people have to ask, since gods are useless, why do you want them? All religions are trying to tell people that God is a metaphor, and God's requirements for people reflect a person's way of living in the world and gaining peace of mind in the real society. This is the meaning of God.
In terms of this concept, the main line of the play has done a good job.
