The second is that the entire setting and special effects are so bad that they are like a third-rate production, and they are extremely dirty. Some people say that this is a fairy tale, so it can be self-consistent, but I think that if art cannot make the audience happy, it is cutting corners and disrespecting the audience.
The third is the actor's performance, except for Deng Chao, no one is really in place. Zhang Yuqi's voice is really embarrassing at all times, and she has always been worried that she will break her voice. As a newcomer, Lin Yun really has no acting skills to speak of, smirking loudly and crying loudly. He can only say that the editing of Xing Ye is good and avoid more embarrassment as much as possible. However, as a "director", the performances of the actors he directed this time were unsuccessful.
Fourth, the laughter has lost the exaggeration and nonsensicalness that Zhou Xingchi once had. The only two points are the dialogue with the police station. It is also a pity that there is no "immediate response" comedy effect that Stephen Chow is used to in this film.
Fifth, the theme is obviously higher than the characters, and the portrayal of the characters completely serves the theme of environmental protection and loses the emotional entry of the audience. The choice and motives of the characters do not depend on the director's choice. If a film does not try to shape the characters, this is the director's dereliction of duty. Not to mention that genre films have to have the plot theme first, audiences rely on emotions to drive movies, never the plot.
