Regarding the two-sided comments on "Painted Skin 2", I only gave my evaluation after watching it several times.
---------------------------------------------------------
First talk capital.
Although "The Legend of the White Snake" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" are all classic fantasy romance films, only Chen Jiashang's "Painted Skin" fills the gap in the genre in recent years, and should be the first of its kind in recent years. , and the excellent cast and solid script won the film full house.
Since "Painted Skin", no less than 5 similar films have been released in the mainland within three years, such as "Legend of the White Snake", "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "Painted Wall" by Chen Jiashang, etc. And it got the audience's seemingly unanimous complaints and abuse, and even to the point of remaking and insulting the classics, which repeatedly brought the theme of magical love to the bottom.
At this time, Chen Guofu suddenly announced that "Painted Skin 2" was put on the agenda in the sluggish 2011. The original team reunited, coupled with the new mainland director Wu Ershan, this title alone is enough to make fans excited about such topics.
------------------------------------------------
As expected Next, "Painted Skin 2" was released heavily. (Heavy: It means the audience's high expectations)
As a result, within half a month of its release, a clear two-sided team appeared on the Internet. While saying that the second part did not change the dregs of magical love, not only the plot is not interesting but also very shocking. On the other hand, it is said that the second part has reached a new level of magical love, and it is very philosophical.
Suffice it to say about this: Not just Painted Skin 2, but any movie that audiences are eagerly waiting for that hits a new bar. Most audiences always only care about the surface, that is, the plot design, the acting skills of the actors, the scale of the story, and so on. And only the minority care about the fullness of the film itself, the overall idea and center of the film, the depth and innovation of the story.
I believe that Wu Ershan chose to take care of the latter.
I don't want to show anything lofty, but after I watched "Painted Skin 2" carefully several times, I also deeply admired Wu Ershan.
Aside from the character modeling, taking the double clues of the film as an example, the two exchange of identities between Princess Jing and Xiao Wei is not so clear that ordinary directors can tell the story. If the filming of the two parts of the exchange of identities is not delicate enough, it will directly cause the plot to deviate from the main clue, or even find another way.
However, Wu Ershan cleverly used the inner drama of the characters to link them together, and completed the gathering after the bifurcation of the clues twice. This is the best way to lose the overall texture in order to take care of the plot.
Let's talk about the soy sauce scene between Yang Mi and Feng Shaofeng. Most of the audience said that the two roles are not critical, they are optional, and in the end, "Yang Mi saves the world" detracts from the overall beauty and relaxation of the film.
I have no objection, but for a magical film that is not a remake, it is not unforgivable to do this in order to honor the first film and make it so, I can only say that the editing of Yang Mi and Feng Shaofeng's scenes was not perfect. If you keep the vulgar dialogue and free character descriptions in the scene, and change it to highlight the main plot, I don't think the finale will attract a lot of guns.
------------------------------------------
Overall, I personally think that " "Painted Skin 2" and the first episode are completely different, but compared to the first episode, they just lack the sense of difference between the protagonists. Obviously, the shemale resonance may not be what the audience wants to see, although the two are based on "love" as the main clue , but without the battle between humans and demons, a fantasy film has been completely "sublimated" to a pure love film.
Presumably what the audience wants to watch is the entanglement drama centered on Chen Kun, Zhao Wei, and Zhou Xun. Maybe this is the first one that came too early, not the best reason why the second one is bad.
The first part is not a classic, but most viewers regard it as a dragon gate, and the carp under the gate is only daunting.
