Although the painted skin 1 is not very moving, it basically tells the story according to the legend of Liaozhai. It is honest and law-abiding. Zhou Xun plays a demon, Zhao Wei plays a good woman, and Chen Kun's performance space is not very large. He only plays a "man". Well, this man was originally bound by social responsibilities and ethical norms: he was conscientious at work, modeled as a husband in the family, and the arrival of the fox demon brought him the temptation of desire. These three actors are all excellent actors in my opinion. They have entertained the public as well as themselves. Although they did not have any surprises, they still performed normally.
Painted Skin 2 focuses on the promotion of "skin changing". It is also a stunt, a special effect makeup, and an ambiguous relationship between two women. It can be said that it is a gimmick that makes people imagine. I thought it was for the two actresses to challenge each other in 2. The role, that is, after changing the skin, Zhou Xun's skin shows the heart of a woman of a good family, and Zhao Wei's skin matches the soul of a fox demon.
As a result, the so-called "exchange my skin for your heart" means that you change your heart at the same time as you change your skin. Doesn't this mean you haven't changed anything?
After the skin was changed, Zhao Wei was still a good woman from the beginning to the end, and Zhou Xun was still a demon from beginning to end (Princess Jing lost her heart when she got the skin, and became a demon), one with a fiery heart but a scar on his face, one with a fiery heart. Beautiful but unintentional, after tossing for a long time, he still has a fiery heart but has a scar on his face, a beautiful but unintentional.
The scene of changing skins that sells a lot of money is the most ridiculous and boring. The two people in the bath change skins, and if one change is not enough, they need to change twice. According to the plot, the two actually changed skins four times - Xiaowei asked Princess Jing to try to change it once, and then changed it back the next morning. When Princess Jing and her husband officially made up their minds, they changed skins again. Change it back again!
Originally, "changing skins" meant the eternal exchange of body and soul, with a solemn and tragic connotation, but these two people are good, they change skins as often as eating and sleeping! Changing skins has become a daily activity, isn't it?
Moreover, perhaps inspired by the fact that everything has experience packs and trial packs, there are also trial packs for changing skins. Come back if you are satisfied. But the director doesn't know that this completely dilutes its mystery and emotional impact, leaving only a ridiculous stunt scene, and this stunt scene that tickles the audience's appetite is also so funny and boring, and faintly disgusting, Xiao Wei's After the skin was completely peeled off, something appeared on the screen... I don't know how to describe it... The thing is the one with the tentacles flying around on the pointed face. This is the final answer that could have been imagined in countless ways. Don't you know that the more you want horror, the more you have to pay attention to "still holding a pipa and half covering your face"? Complete exposure will only make the horror and mystery disappear suddenly, leaving only funny.
The story of Liao Zhai is known to all ages. The fox demon painting is an ancient legend and imagination. How imaginative this image was originally, it gives people a strange feeling that is both terrifying and magnificent, making people both scared and inexplicably attracted. However, in such a shot, all the mysterious charm disappeared.
In fact, for this film, the audience is good to watch the trailer. Watching the main film is like diluting a bowl of plain soup into a pot of water. There is nothing substantial to tell, and the story is full of dissatisfaction.
Before, the propaganda who helped make the film said: "Ah, if there is any shortcomings in this film, it is that there are too many things to tell, the stories are too full, and there are so many things that can't be packed in more than two hours." Want to say something? ! ! (It is said that it also expressed philosophy??? Where?) I really can't think of what to say, even if Yang Mi and Feng Shaofeng tried their best to make soy sauce, even if they tried to use slow motion, these two hours still seemed empty.
Feng Shaofeng and Yang Mi are simply stuck in the story. They are even more rigid than the placement of advertisements. Of course, it is very important for the intelligent creative staff to fully express the colorful bird played by Yang Mi. This bird pecks a few times at the beginning of the film. He pecked open the ice and snow hell that had been frozen for 500 years, and released Xiao Wei - this proves that the ice and snow hell is a joke at all! But Xiaowei is scared to death; at the end, the bird kills Voldemort again - proving once again that Voldemort is a joke. In the past, the pressure of the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom seemed to be extremely terrifying, so I could only give the princess and relatives to life and death. Now, a blind general can go deep into the enemy's nest with a dozen of his subordinates, and he is not hindered by anything. The opponent was killed in two strokes, and he changed his skin again very calmly on the enemy's territory!
That thin emotional drama makes it impossible for even experienced actors to perform. At every turn, his pupils change color and his hair turns white. Huo Xin, played by Chen Kun, looks a bit stupid no matter how he looks at it. His infatuation looks like a The scene was insane, the director and screenwriter couldn't make this character self-consistent, so they had to explain that it was a demon who had invaded his eyes. As for before he was bewitched by the demon, why did it happen eight years after his lover was disfigured, and then when they met again? If he avoids awkwardness in general, he is vague. Some people may say that this character is very deep, and his inner emotions are rich and complex. Well, I would like to excuse you to show it anyway, instead of standing on the beach and saying that azaleas are so fragrant, instead of just smearing your eyes in the end.
That's right, there are also a few shots that are beautiful. That's right, Xiaowei's clothes are beautiful in color (this is called visual impact?), and there are many selling points that the producers think are very strong, but after all, these It's just the skin of the film, and I reluctantly admit that the skin is gorgeous, but it was shot by people who have no brains and no hearts. As long as they are not equally brainless and heartless viewers, they will definitely feel it.
