“l can say without exaggeration that ‘Beauty is the best domestic movie in the past five years! The original script was a masterpiece. After the adaptation, all the essence was condensed into two hours. The plot was tight and the twist was reasonable. Be it the overall situation or the details, it was at a level that no one could find fault with.
“This is Director Ding Zhi’s hard work for his fans. Not a single scene in the movie is redundant. This movie makes me look at Ding Zhi in a new light.
“Lastly, let’s talk about the actors. All the actors’ performances far exceeded the passing line. Two of the actors’ acting skills are even more shocking. I won’t say their names, but I’m sure everyone can guess who they are.
“If there are friends who are still hesitating about which movie to watch in the cinema in the near future, my suggestion is ‘Beauty’. There’s no better choice.’
In the reviews, Panda Ninja was not stingy with his praise at all. His words were filled with love and appreciation for the movie.
Under the influence of the tide of good reviews, many viewers who were not interested in the film and television of the Republic of China also walked into the cinema.
Of course, for the same work, some people liked it very much, while others felt that it was average. However, even if some people were not moved by the plot and feelings of the movie, the aesthetic atmosphere and camera art created by the movie still shocked them.
“Oh my god, Lu Zhen’s appearance is too beautiful, right? This is the first time I’ve felt the charm of a cheongsam today. Every step she takes seems to seduce my soul.”
“l really like Yue Qin and the warlord as partners. It’s simply too exciting. The dangerous probing between the two of them in bed makes me excited and nervous. My boyfriend’s arm is almost broken by me!”
“This scene is too beautiful. It’s filled with lust, but it doesn’t seem vulgar or erotic. I’m blushing and laughing my head off. I’m grateful that the Radio and Television Administration can broadcast this scene, I won’t scold you guys this year.”
In the movie, the regret between Lu Zhen’s role as Yue Qin and the male lead made many people melancholic. However, there were also people who were more fascinated by the sexual tension and danger between Yue Qin and the warlord. The latter was even more popular.
Overnight, Lu Zhen and Xi De’s names were tied together and mentioned by the netizens many times. Many authors of Doujin works were moved by the performance of the two people in the film and created many derivative works.
Some of them were led by Yue Qin and the warlord, Zheng Xiong, while others directly vÆ0te Lu Zhen and Xi De as a couple.
Many netizens even found the video clip of the two of them participating in the “Night of Stars” together and sighed. “I have a feeling that Lu Zhen and Xi De are what Yue Qin and Zheng Xiong looked like after their rebirth. I must be possessed to have such crazy thoughts.”
“No, you’re not the only one who’s crazy. I’m also frantically looking for pictures of Lu Zhen and Xi De in the same frame. When I was watching the movie, I kept thinking, why didn’t Yue Qin fall in love with Zheng Xiong?
Which woman can reject the way Zheng Xiong smiled with a gun?!”
“If Yue Qin fell in love with Zheng Xiong, it would be a little cliché. It’s precisely because of the indescribable emotional entanglement between the two of them that we can’t stop.”
Lu Zhen and Xi De did not expect Yue Qin and Zheng Xiong to be so popular that they even surpassed the other characters in the movie. Strictly speaking, Yue Qin and Zheng Xiong were not positive characters. In that era, the two of them were reactionary forces and had done many bad things.
If the audience liked the two villains so much, it meant that if the villains acted well, their charm would definitely not be inferior to the main characters. In addition, the most popular scene was not those important plot turning points, but the bed scene between Lu Zhen and Xi De.
This bed scene had even been trending during filming. At this moment, many viewers were glad. “Fortunately, I didn’t scold Lu Zhen at that time. Otherwise,
I would be too embarrassed to watch such an exciting scene!”
Be it the movie plot or the actors’ performance, many topics of “Beauty” dominated the entertainment trending list during the screening period. Lu Zhen’s name had never disappeared from the trending list.
In less than three days after its release, the box office of “Beauty” exceeded one billion yuan, and its momentum was still very strong.
Many netizens predicted that “Beauty” might very well create a new domestic movie box office record.
After the movie became popular, dozens of media outlets wanted to invite Lu Zhen for an interview. Ye Xuan asked Lu Zhen to choose one or two to be interviewed. It would be even better if she could invite Xi De along..
