Also according to this standard, this drama is also considered mediocre, and it is still an idol drama after all. However, just this sentence itself does not mean that I have a negative attitude towards it. In fact, as a vampire theme lover of the traditional classic school (the general title made up by myself, I do not intend to compare or evaluate any friends who like idolized vampire images and stories, but simply express their preference for traditional vampires), I am very pleased that they "are in Between 'Twilight' and 'True Blood,'...decided to go back to the originals', which in this age of vampire idolization where fangs are vampires has moved me to tears ...I am watching this drama with an open mind, which means that I am not looking for where to "blaspheme" the original work with a critical eye. After all, it was just a re-creation based on Stoker's work. But it is precisely because of the creative team's respect for the traditional classic vampire works that I can open my heart to appreciate this work even more.
In general, the screenwriter's adaptation of the characters' relationships left me with a not-bad impression. Huck is still "working" for Dracula, Dracula is still pretending to be a businessman, Mina is still intellectual and kind, and Lucy is still a vampire. Eh... I feel like I can't say it anymore... How should I put it? I feel that the screenwriter should give the original work a clever twist and eventually return to the same way as the main line of the original work.
But there are some things that make me feel uncomfortable. In fact, to be honest, I accidentally clicked on Youku to watch this drama without knowing anything about it. If I hadn’t found out that it was a story based on Stoke’s writings, and on the other hand, I found out that the protagonist was actually Xiao Qiao, I would have I can't stop watching the first episode. The main characters in the first episode of the original work felt very bad to me when they first appeared. Mina and Lucy are wearing heavy makeup, scratching their heads, and Jonathan is also a arrogant and arrogant little ruffian. Van Helsing not only hunted and killed vampires for human safety, but became an accomplice of vampires for revenge. Fortunately, the characters gradually fell to the ground. However, I still can't agree that Dr. Van Helsing, who is a good teacher, is set as a villain who is so heartbroken in revenge to cross the river and demolish the bridge, and the girl Lucy is set as a lesbian and slutty. people.
First, let's talk about being a teacher and showing integrity and wisdom. Fan Haixin turned into an aggrieved father who lost his beloved son. The psychology was twisted and he crossed the river and demolished the bridge to kill. In the drama, the props of Van Helsing's murder is a big hammer... As soon as the line is thick, I will have a black line... This is too frustrating, too simple and rude! A little technical content is good! When he killed the Prophet for the first time, the perverted murderer's skillful swinging of the sledgehammer just made me nervous... By the last time he was going to swing the child to death, I had already become = = this expression... What does my heart say? And as a doctor, a conspirator who has been plotting revenge for more than a decade, Van Helsing is incredibly careless. Mina sneaked into his secret room so many times, used so many medicines, and even took a bottle in the end, he didn't even notice it. I don't think any scientist can be so careless about his experimental materials or medicines. And in the end, Van Helsing's sudden defection may be inexplicable and incomprehensible to many people like me. Is it really necessary? Did Van Helsing really feel such a great sense of crisis for Dracula? Obviously Dracula still wants to turn the tide of the original plan! Van Helsing, are you a god horse? ! Actually, why? It is because the screenwriter wants to return to the main line of the original work with Stoker through different paths and finally return to the main line of the original - Van Helsing is going to incarnate as a vampire hunter, it is written! = =
Besides, I think it is the most wronged Lucy. In Stoker's book, Lucy is a poor girl. She has been engaged to a loved one but was turned into a vampire. In the end, she couldn't get rid of the curse of vampires and had to be killed, but she finally fell asleep in peace. Stoke's Lucy is a typical lady, a lady, a pure and single-minded good girl. The screenwriter's addition of lesbian elements surprised me, but that's all, Lucy's temperament has also changed a lot, and she has become lively. After being frivolous, she became a silly girl, and actually seduced Jonathan to "punish" Mina who rejected her... I really... Lucy who couldn't get love is even more pitiful, and she became a little slut... I really feel for Lucy Wronged...
Five good young Jonathan turned into a frivolous, arrogant and jealous villain. You may remember the Levi's version of Jonathan in the most famous movie "Four Hundred Years" based on Stoker's novel. Although I personally think that Jonathan is a little weak, he is elegant, humble, dedicated and cautious, which is in line with Stoker's character. . Of course, this show doesn't need to be copied, but such a five-good young man suddenly became arrogant in the first episode, and later betrayed Dracula, betrayed Mina, played with Lucy, and was maddened by hatred... However, Jonathan's integrity in the process is very popular, although he was used by Dracula... and the death of his last friend and Mina's words made him sober. Although the future of him and Mina is uncertain if there is a second season, I still hope He can wake up.
In the end, it's all about the little details. For example, Mina's eye shadow... Finally, there is no such heavy eye shadow... At first it was like a panda... I'm not saying that she is not beautiful, she is very beautiful... But first of all the heavy makeup at the prom really doesn't fit the character of Mina I feel like I don't even need to go to the prom, do I need such a thick eyeshadow to go to the medical exam? In addition, I heard Xiao Qiao say how awkward an American accent is...
