On March 30, the latest large-scale puzzle real-life decryption experience show " Escape Room " premiered, with the single-day viewing volume easily exceeding 100 million.
program production team is Box Studio, and the well-known online variety show " Star Detective " was created by it. In terms of copyright of
, it was introduced from South Korea's "Escape" and there is no suspicion of plagiarism.
The only thing to worry about is whether the guests can play in the show and whether the rhythm of the show can drive the audience.
First, let me introduce the guests of the program.
consists of the sisters of the times, Yang Mi and Xie Yilin, socialist brotherhood Deng Lun and Wei Daxun, escape room enthusiast Huang Minghao , and male high jump athlete Zhang Guowei .
has the hilarious responsibility of adjusting the atmosphere, and also has the responsibilities of decrypting the mind quickly.
The main purpose of the first issue is two, namely: to familiarize the guests and roughly understand the process of escape room.
To this end, the program team arranged a unique "guest party" before the first episode, gathering everyone in the room to eat takeaway, thus bringing each other a distance.
without any fan filters to evaluate: In the first episode of "Escape Room", the guests performed a little awkwardly.
The first half hour, everyone gathered in the car. To liven up the most honest Deng Lun. Yang Mi looked for memes throughout the whole process, but it was funny, but other guests rarely answered memes. Finally, Wei Daxun ended the whole topic with a straight man speech. (Silently feel sorry for Yang Mi for 5 minutes)
From the speed of the guests escaping from the secret room, "Escape from the secret room" is not very visible.
In the first secret room, the guests searched for the key for 3 hours, and spent most of their time playing and scrambling to create a sense of variety shows, and they were careless about one thing and did not take the matter of "escape from the secret room" to heart.
84 minutes of the program, this clip takes up 20 minutes, and coupled with the first 30 minutes of opening chat, 50 minutes have passed.
has no fine-cutting process at all in the later stage, which has led to the slow pace of the first episode, which has become the main reason why the audience is disappointed with this latest variety show.
dian is a loyal fan of the Korean version of "Escape". Be familiar with the model that this variety show should have.
After watching the domestic "Escape Room", Diandian believes that the first episode of the program is only worth 7 points. Four-point variety show, three-point escape.
The first time the guests met, they were not very familiar with each other. It takes a certain amount of time to merge the "magnetic fields" between each other.
This is an important reason why the variety show feel is particularly strong in the program "Escape Room": it requires funny and outspoken responsibilities like Xie Yilin and Yang Mi.
However, "Escape Room" does not have a precise positioning of escape room...
In the first episode of the show, there are very few shots that reveal the secret code, and most of the secrets are very simple.
The only unexpected thing is that the key props set by the director team were unexpected. No one expected that xxx (items) was actually the key clue to escape from the secret room.
The most interesting performance are Deng Lun and Yang Mi. (Of course, they have the most fans among the audience)
Yang Mi is more active in the atmosphere and throws jokes. Brainstorming during decryption and good control ability.
Deng Lun prefers the funny and exquisite decryption school. When sitting on the ground, you must put a plastic lunch box. You are very timid and always muttered: I am so scared. In the first episode, he solved the most passwords.
If the two can do a good job of decrypting the secret, "Escape from the Room" will be very good.
But the problem is that the two of them have a bit intimate behavior in the past, and they have also edited too much CP tendency in the later period. This leads to the audience's poor viewing of the show.
Korean version of "Escape", the focus of the program has always focused on the process of the guests' efforts to escape the secret room. Even paragraphs with a rendering atmosphere are very few.
In contrast, the program positioning of the Chinese version of "Escape Room" is not accurate enough, and I want to make a sense of variety, so I ignore the most important escape factor. Whether it is the escape rhythm or the settings of some levels, it does not meet the audience's expectations.
So far, "Escape from the Room" has been updated to issue 5. The guests are already familiar with each other, and there is no intention of making fun of it in order to liven up the atmosphere.
Under this premise, Diandian watched the latest fifth issue. But unfortunately: I failed to get the satisfactory viewing experience I expected, and only saw the chaos on the screen.
This time, everyone's adventure was in the biological laboratory. The scene was very gloomy. Everyone was frightened and quickly looked for the key to escape from here.
The two teams worked together to find high-energy clues for local animal images. Yang Mi's team was the first to escape, while Deng Lun's team needed his teammates to open the secret room from the outside to get rescue.
Then...
Yang Mi's group did not help open the door directly, but asked Deng Lun's group to dance strangely.
program requires variety show effect, but variety show effect should not appear under such a situation. In room escape game , escape should be the most important element.
Imagine if you want to escape when you are in real danger of life, but you have to sing before you escape. What would you feel like?
To sum up, the variety show "Escape from the Room" is a very regrettable. The rating is only 6.0 (Korean version 9.3), and the program concept is trendy, but the program link settings and guest performance are chaotic and they are too hard. The editing of the first episode was very messy and failed to successfully bring the audience into the scene. The guests did not understand the escape game enough, which directly led to the collapse of the show.
The producer and the participants were not attentive enough, and the program was lost, which was expected.
