After more than 2 weeks on air, the film "Lam Giang Tien" has recently officially ended with unimpressive achievements. Except for breaking 10,000 heat points on the iQIYI platform, the film with the highest number of views of Van Hop only reached 52 million, less than the previous series of historical works such as "Tang Hai Truyen", "Khom Lat"...
Previously, director Vu Chinh confidently affirmed that "Lam Giang Tien" will reach over 60 million views, with better content than "Goblin" and "The Glory".
One of the biggest reasons why "The Forest of Giang Tien" did not achieve the expected results lies in the cast. Except for Tang Thuan Hy and Bach Loc, who are famous stars, all the remaining faces are "pet" of director Vu Chinh but their acting ability is lackluster.
The second woman, Ha Thuy Hien, once appeared in the movie "Thuong Thuong Thuc" but received a lot of criticism because her beauty was too modern, not suitable for the historical drama genre. Coming to "Lam Giang Tien", although her appearance has improved, she still cannot leave an impression on the audience. Some scenes of Ha Thuy Hien are considered stiff, unnatural, and ruining the viewer's emotions.
Luong Vinh Ky attracted attention in 2024 with the role of the silver-backed husband Tham Ngoc Dung in "Mac Vu Van Gian". In "Lam Giang Tien", his role as Ly Mach has many scenes that require high emotions, and his appearance is also carefully cared for.
However, his un typical appearance and difference compared to the other cast made him completely outclassed when standing in the same frame.
In contrast to Luong Vinh Ky, Trieu Dich Kham, despite his outstanding appearance, is not afraid to "scare" his appearance. Previously, the actor was a short film director, and had impressed with his youthful and handsome appearance. However, in "The Forest of the Forecast", this advantage of his disappeared completely because of his hairstyle, cheesy outfit, and lack of care.
According to netizens, it is not an exaggeration to say that Bai Lu is the one who "carried" the whole film. Thanks to the actress's name, "Lam Giang Tien" had good commercial results. Stable views and a record of breaking 10,000 heat points on the platform are also thanks to Bach Loc's large fan base.
This is not the first time director Yu Zheng has been criticized for letting his "pet" act in major film projects despite his limited acting ability.
After "Lam Giang Tien", Bach Loc has 2 more films preparing to air, "Duong Cung Ky An" and "Mac Ly". This is the first time the 9x beauty has tried the ancient courtyard and reconnaissance genre, so fans are highly appreciated.
