Recently, "The Wind Rises in Longxi" starring Chen Kun is currently on the air, but the ratings of this drama continue to decline, and even CCTV cannot save it.
You should know that this is not the first time Chen Kun's work has been fooled into the center of the earth. As early as the previous " Day Sheng Changge ", Chen Kun's acting skills were criticized.
It can be seen from this that Chen Kun's acting skills have always been overestimated.
In fact, Chen Kun's experience also represents the embarrassing situation of some middle-aged male stars.
On weekdays, they are all praised by the audience, and they seem to be very famous and have good acting skills; however, under the witness of time, everyone finds that their performance is very bad and their acting skills are seriously exaggerated.
, Lu Yi
Lu Yi is a very familiar male star among the post-90s. He started acting at the age of 7 and became a hit in 1998 with " Never Rest in the Eyes ".
Over the years, Lu Yi has starred in many classic works, such as "Young Bao Qingtian", " Who is the master of my youth ", "Three Kingdoms", etc.
In everyone's impression, Lu Yi's performance seems to have always been good, but is it really the case?
As early as when " In the Name of the People " was hit in 2017, Lu Yi's acting skills were criticized by netizens. As the male lead, Lu Yi's " Hou Liangping " plays indeed has highlights, but it also has many flaws.
Many viewers feel that Lu Yi lacks a sense of layering in the portrayal of this character. No matter what the situation is, he always looks calm and deep. Compared with the other veteran actors in the play, this point is simply a complete blowout.
Especially in the scene where " Qi Tongwei " committed suicide, many viewers saw the difference in acting between Lu Yi and Xu Yajun and and began to sympathize with the villain.
At that time, the old actor Zhang Zhijian also used eight words to evaluate Lu Yi's acting skills as "almost looked thin".
In 2020, Lu Yi took on another idol drama called "Just For That Moment". It is already very inconsistent to act in idol dramas in his 40s, and Lu Yi's acting skills are still very bad.
Results After the show was broadcast, many viewers gave one-star negative reviews, and everyone left comments saying: I don’t know why Lu Yi took on such a work.
In short, Lu Yi did have highlights in his acting career, but his acting skills are not as superb as everyone expected. Compared with the acting people of the same age, Lu Yi does have room to improve his acting skills.
Especially in recent years, the number of Lu Yi's works has gradually decreased, and instead he is addicted to taking photos with his wife and children, which is quite a bit "not doing his job properly".
. Zhou Yiwei
004, Zhou Yiwei entered the audience's vision with "The Sunshine Blooms Like Flowers".
was the male lead of Haiyan Drama as soon as he debuted. Zhou Yiwei's starting point can be said to be very high. Afterwards, Zhou Yiwei starred in works such as "The Founding of the Party", "The Embroidered Spring Sword", " Gold Lawyer ".
With years of hard work, Zhou Yiwei gradually entered the front line and became a well-known middle-aged male star.
By 2017, Zhou Yiwei ushered in another highlight of his life.
When participating in "Handle The Birth of the Actor ", Zhou Yiwei was recognized by Zhang Ziyi. Even in front of the audience, Zhang Ziyi praised him without hesitation.
With the strong support of Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Yiwei won the annual championship of that year without any surprise.
Regularly speaking, Zhou Yiwei can stand out among many actors, and his acting skills should be quite valuable, but this is not the case.
Shortly after participating in "The Birth of an Actor", Zhou Yiwei took on a TV series called " Entrepreneurship Era ".
In this drama, Zhou Yiwei's acting skills are very exaggerated. For example, in the scene of this speech, Zhou Yiwei raised his hideous face with his hands, like a conductor who was immersed in music.
When you speak normally, Zhou Yiwei's facial features are often twisted together, and it seems like everyone has a deep hatred.
Moreover, Zhou Yiwei not only used too much force during his speech, but also in many scenes with dull emotions, Zhou Yiwei also had an exaggerated expression, his eyes widened, and his eyebrows jumped up.
Seeing Zhou Yiwei's appearance, netizens couldn't help but ask: "Can you win the championship with such acting skills?"
It is undeniable that Zhou Yiwei was indeed beautiful and natural, and his acting skills were also remarkable. But after becoming famous, Zhou Yiwei gradually lost himself and his acting skills were much worse than before.
No matter what role he plays, Zhou Yiwei seems to be injected with blood, and looks very exaggerated. I wonder if he realizes his own shortcomings?
, Sun Honglei
Sun Honglei was once recognized as a powerful actor. In 1998, Sun Honglei made his debut with "Never Rest in Eyes". Immediately afterwards, he starred in classic works such as "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind" and "Conquest".
In 2008, a movie " Lurking " completely sent Sun Honglei to the altar, making him a household name.
In the early years, Sun Honglei's acting skills were indeed superb, and he could be called "showing the face" and acted like whatever he played.
However, since Sun Honglei joined " Extreme Challenge ", he has begun to create a silly and funny character. Although such behaviors such as
have earned him a lot of traffic, they have also severely limited his acting career and eventually fell into this kind of character and could not extricate himself.
019's " Take Dad to Study Abroad ", Sun Honglei's words and deeds are no different from those in the variety show, as if they were carved from the same mold.
always squints and smirks, or they are silly and silly, which completely reflects their acting skills.
In 2021's " Anti-Black Storm ", Sun Honglei's performance has indeed improved a little, and he showed a very strong aura when his expression was serious.
However, once Sun Honglei smiled, he immediately broke his achievements, as if he brought the audience back to "Extreme Challenge".
Sun Honglei is a good actor, and this is undeniable. But no matter how outstanding the actor is, he cannot withstand the "destroy" of variety shows.
On the contrary, the more you pursue the actor, the more you should stay away from activities with high exposure and perform your own works steadily. I hope Sun Honglei can look back in time and not go further and further on the road of "variety show stars".
, Zhang Zijian
When it comes to Zhang Zijian, everyone will definitely think of " Li Yuanfang " in "Detective Di Renjie". This character is definitely one of the classic images on the screen.
In fact, Zhang Zijian has been in the industry for nearly 10 years before starring in "Detective Di Renjie", but he has always been lukewarm.
After becoming popular with this drama, Zhang Zijian's resources have improved greatly and he has appeared in many popular works, such as " Marriage Password ", " Ming Dynasty 1566", etc.
At this time, Zhang Zijian's popularity was already very high, and his acting skills were recognized by most viewers. If this situation continues, Zhang Zijian's position in the circle will become more and more stable.
However, since 2011, Zhang Zijian has been taking on various anti-Japanese war dramas.Everyone must know about this kind of work. Not only is the plot shocking, but it also does not require acting skills at all.
In just a few years, Zhang Zijian released several similar works. He did make money, but his reputation and audience favor were also consumed.
At the same time, due to frequent roles, Zhang Zijian's acting career has been severely restricted, and his acting skills have plummeted.
To this day, Zhang Zijian has been immersed in the character "cold Agent " and cannot extricate himself. Acting is also a mode. Although he has a large audience, looking at his acting skills closely is really suspected of being exaggerated.
Facial expressions are stiff and the inner scenes are missing, as if they have become the robot in the Anti-Japanese War God drama. In fact, the anti-Japanese war drama not only affected Zhang Zijian, but also Yu Zhen , Wang Xin and others were all "harmed by it".
With Zhang Zijian's starting point and qualifications, he could have had better development, but he made the wrong choice and ended up with a group ridicule. It can only be said that he was blamed.
. Chen Kun
Chen Kun is a household name middle-aged male star. In the early years, Chen Kun had a good reputation, but his acting skills have been frequently questioned in the past two years.
Chen Kun debuted in 1999 and starred in the classic work "Like Fog, Rain and Wind" the following year, which has gained widespread attention.
For many years since then, Chen Kun has successively starred in works such as " Balzac and the Little Tailor ", " Golden Fen Family ", and " Yunshui Ballad ", gradually becoming one of the first-line male stars.
At that time, Chen Kun did not say that he was "rated guarantee" or "box office guarantee", but at least his works were of high quality and his acting skills were also very online.
The directors and actors he worked with were all first-line celebrities. His resources were enviable and he was definitely the "top star" at that time.
However, by 2018, Chen Kun's good luck seemed to have been exhausted.
This year, Chen Kun starred in the movie " Get Out of ". The official publicity was vigorously promoted before the TV series started, but after the broadcast, both reputation and ratings exploded, and Chen Kun's acting skills were also criticized.
In the drama, Chen Kun plays two roles alone, but because he is not sure about the standard, he always gives people a feeling of excessive force, and in the later stage, there are signs of his acting skills collapse.
In the same year, Chen Kun released another costume drama "The Long Song of Heaven". This drama has gathered many powerful players, with a total investment of more than 500 million yuan. It is a popular work that was highly anticipated back then.
However, Chen Kun's performance in the play is still not ideal. In addition to his inconsistent image and character design, Chen Kun's acting skills have also been criticized.
Affected by this, Chen Kun's reputation plummeted, and he completely became a "rating poison". Every subsequent work failed without exception.
To this day, Chen Kun's resources are still top-notch, but the surprises he can bring to the audience are getting fewer and fewer, and everyone's expectations for him are getting lower and lower.
, Li Chen
When it comes to Li Chen, most viewers will definitely think of his performance in "Running Man", so many people ignore that he is an actor.
In fact, Li Chen’s starting point is also very high. At the age of 19, Li Chen starred in his first work " Seventeen Don't Cry ", thus entering the entertainment industry.
Although he is a newcomer who has just debuted, Li Chen's resources are very good. In just a few years, Li Chen has starred in works such as "The Reality of Criminal Police" and " Thirteen Princess ".
In 2006, a movie " Soldier Assault " sent Li Chen to the peak of his career and successfully entered the front line.
In these early works, Li Chen's performance is indeed remarkable.However, Li Chen's acting skills are not proportional to his qualifications, but instead become increasingly poor.
For example, in "Yunnan Insect Valley" some time ago, Li Chen played the role of " Zhang Yingchuan ". He had only a few minutes of scenes, but he was criticized by many audiences.
Originally, this character looked relatively easy-going, but Li Chen performed a feeling of being arrogant, which was extremely inconsistent with the image in the original work.
Moreover, Li Chen's lines are pronounced very badly, and the overall look is very greasy. Apart from this drama, Li Chen's works in the past two years have basically not escaped the audience's complaints. The reason why
caused such a result is largely because he has become a variety show star.
As the resident guest of "Running Man", Li Chen wants to maintain a fixed character in the program. Over time, his previous actor filters were consumed.
Therefore, as long as Li Chen appears on the screen now, it will make the audience feel out of the play. Nowadays, Li Chen rarely participates in film and television works, and probably will choose to "retire yourself" in variety shows in the future.
, Du Chun
Du Chun was born in a family of performing arts, and his father was an old actor Du Zhiguo . Thanks to such a family environment, Du Chun had come into contact with the entertainment industry early on.
In 2003, Du Chun officially entered the circle with " Emperor Wu of Han ". With the help of his father, Du Chun's acting career has been relatively smooth. In the years after
, Du Chun has successively starred in popular works such as " Great Song Dynasty Criminal Officer " and " Going to the Westward Hidden ", and has gradually become well-known to the audience.
Objectively speaking, Du Chun’s conditions are very good, and his appearance and acting skills are relatively online. However, his acting skills have declined severely in the past two years.
For example, in 2021's " I Really Love You ", Du Chun played the role of pediatrician "Mo Ming". This should have been a very three-dimensional and plump character, but it was played very flat by Du Chun.
After watching the whole drama, Du Chun's performance was a bit too stable and there was no emotional outburst. Moreover, Du Chun's eyes looked empty and boring under certain shots.
Once upon a time, Du Chun was also a powerful actor in the circle. But looking at it now, Du Chun's performance is really unsatisfactory.
And as we grow older, Du Chun inevitably becomes greasy, and his former appearance as a honest young man no longer exists.
To this day, Du Chun is over 40 years old, but his representative works are those works from more than ten years ago, which is definitely the most embarrassing thing for an actor.
In recent years, Du Chun has been busy with fitness. He seems to be a serious drama actor, but the audience does not buy it. He can only turn around and get married and have children, and establish a good husband and good father character.
But in the final analysis, if an actor wants to develop for a long time, he still needs to improve his acting skills and cannot rely on his old capital for a long time, as soon as possible, he will consume his previous popularity.
You can see Du Chun that he has a very bad reputation in the market in recent years. If he does not show off his excellent works, he will sooner or later be eliminated.
On the surface, middle-aged stars are the backbone of the entertainment industry, but in fact they are the most embarrassing group.
, especially those middle-aged actors who have been in the industry for many years and have not improved their acting skills, can easily fall into a situation where "comparing with the top and not being able to compare the bottom".
I hope middle-aged actors can temper themselves and constantly produce excellent works, otherwise they will be abandoned by the audience one day sooner or later.
