User Review
Viewing from different perspectives will surely bring about different feelings. I will try to view it objectively from the perspective of a professional.

Let's start with the advantages: 1. The art design is at the top level in China. The jungle with red floors, the bones of the Chinese dragon, the dragon's horns, the tower, the temple, and the combination of all kinds of beings - the beautiful interpretation of Chinese aesthetics is truly amazing. 2. Teacher Deng Chao has excellent acting skills. He is the "only true god" in the entire performance. The feelings of desire, cynicism, and the portrayal of the dark side are all handled very well! There are also some details that are well handled, such as when Li Jia Yin is dragged away, he didn't expect it. He was also observing his state of getting up and coming back, which was wonderful.

Now let's talk about the problems: I won't list them all. Let's start with the photography and lighting. It can't shoot a big film... It simply can't. There is no imagination, no lens language. The quick cuts of large faces and frequent close-ups do not serve the emotions at all. There is a lack of shot changes and a lack of explanation of relationships. The problems with the photography directly affect the editing, the rhythm is fragmented, like the transitions on Douyin, which disrupt the coherence of the story, making the audience feel distracted.

The lighting is so fake, so bad. There is no variation. Flat lighting, shining on the face, shining on the scene. It's just basic lighting, without enhancing the emotions, serving the space, or serving the narrative. It feels like everything you see is fake, without any variation.

Now let's talk about the action scenes. They are too ordinary. They don't match the worldview of this world. They are clichéd. There is no matching with the environment. They are not in the novel. Let's say, for example, the action director could go and watch something good, like the game "Black Goku". In a snowy field, turning around on the flat ground, deliberately bumping into something, and then done. Hehe There are also special effects. The overall presentation is truly impressive. However, some of the spheres and the light waves are really a bit "below average". Why aren't they more in line with the overall art design? They are so out of place... I understand, it's because of lack of funds, right? Haha.

To summarize the entire story in one sentence: You wanted to play but couldn't get it going. You were flying halfway when you fell to the ground.
