"Painted Skin 1" is not as good as "Painted Skin 2".
"Painted Skin 2" is not as good as "Knives Smile".
"Painted Skin 2", what impresses me is the beauty. The editing of the picture is very good. The character modeling, costumes, props, scenes, and the use of color are superb. The reason why it is worse than "Smile with a Sword" is because all of the above are not innovations, and traces can still be traced, especially, the very obvious Japanese style: Zhou Xun's image, especially makeup, clothing, and behavior. Since this demon did not immigrate from Japan, such a strong Japanese style is a bit unreasonable.
Zhao Wei's princess style is quite stunning. The golden mask and the disfigurement under the mask are not terrifying, but bleak. Compared with the previous films, Zhao Wei has improved in "Painted Skin 1". Compared with 1, Zhao Wei has improved again in "Painted Skin 2". Especially in the scene after changing skins with Xiao Wei, behind the scenes, Zhao Wei's charming look is unique.
Chen Kun, even if I like him very much, I have to honestly say that the only person who has not improved is him. The expression is sluggish, the behavior is perverse, and it seems that there is no soul.
The plot is pretty silly. If the Frozen Hell is such an icy lake, and it is so easy to break, the colorful birds can peck it open. Isn't this underestimating the Creator? The ice lake is certainly a useful concept, but it can't be used in "Painted Skin" as "Swordsman". Fortunately, the Dongfang girl sank into the ice lake with an unintentional body. Otherwise, would the two girls be able to unfold at the bottom of the lake? Heart fight? ——Of course, after Xiao Wei woke up.
There are many bugs in the plot. As a noble princess, even if it is a martial dynasty, it is impossible to bring a young personal bodyguard around. Isn't this looking for trouble? Even if it is to promote the development of the plot, this black bear is inexplicable. Don't black bears hibernate in winter?
The school captain who was a danger, was favored by the princess, and was used by the goblin. Well, even if you are confused by the appearance, the princess is in danger. It is not too late to save the princess first and then goug out the eyes. The result is that his old man is the example Zhenxin destroyed her eyes first, and then stumbled to save her heart. A battle-hardened general without any wisdom? I will not talk about the bravery of the previous independent battle.
The intelligence system of the Sirius Nation is really quite developed. Of course, if the national teacher has a crystal ball, he can know everything. Fei Xiang's appearance can be regarded as a big sacrifice, but the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom looks weird and mentally retarded. As a villain, it really lacks convincing. Of course, in order to achieve the love between the princess and the prince, the villain side is essential. Gags are also essential. The kind-hearted goblin and the soy-sauce demon hunter play a bit of a funny role. It's true, but Feng Shaofeng, I really have no feelings for this actor.
If a film is just for people to see the picture, then it is better to watch the MV. It is said that the director Wu Ershan was born in commercials. It is not surprising to see the taste of commercials in this film. Falling gracefully, that scene is so beautiful that it makes people tempted, but in the end, the prince and princess both galloped on the beautiful grassland, but I felt so stupid. Will they live a happy life from now on?
If I was watching a movie in the theater, I would definitely not be satisfied with just the pictures, I also hoped that there would be a plot, that the characters would move me, and that I wanted to think a little bit. The appearance of the skin was originally a good point to think about. Although I haven't watched "Dumpling", it is a good development from the perspective of the script. "Painted Skin 2" I don't want to understand what it means, can true love not care about skin appearance in the end? If "Painted Skin 1" also reflects Xiaowei's sacrifice for true love, then in "Painted Skin 2", does it mainly show the princess' sacrifice for love? The point is, the two loves are a bit baffling, what exactly does Xiaowei love Wang Sheng? What does the princess love about Huo Xin? Is it because there are so few men you see?
It is said that love does not need a reason, but love is not meaningless.
Well, that's it for the rants.
When I close my eyes, what I see in front of me is still the picture, especially the flowing colors. This is what I like most about this film. Gold, gray, blue, and purple tones are used very well, especially gold, which is full of textured beauty that stands out from the screen and is a great enjoyment.
