Flashy drama

It is the first time to be shocked by the gorgeous colors of the movie... This is a feature film and a classical narrative film, but its pursuit of gorgeous and cumbersome form has reached its peak, and the story has regressed to the second place. Excessive extravagance, insufficient dignity, large enough scenes, and worrying plot. However, it is undeniable that Fuhuadao is indeed more than a grade higher than the so-called exquisite blockbuster now.

This film is adapted from "Thunderstorm", but it lacks the original ups and downs and outspoken narratives. The plot advances are trivial and poorly connected. Sudden revenge, unreliable characters and unreasonable pursuits are all Its failure, the plot frame is still unable to support the gorgeous landscape framework after all. The biggest highlight of the film should be the two banquets on the "Tianyuan Local Platform", where the fate of the characters and the entanglement of the relationship are involved. Generally speaking, this is a commercial film with more formal elements than literary elements. From this perspective, it should be considered a success.
