" Condor Hero " could not save Tran Do Linh's career
The 2024 version of the movie "The Condor Hero" (also known as: The World of Martial Arts Kim Dung) is becoming a topic of controversy with the audience.
Previously, the film attracted attention because it was a project to celebrate the 100th birthday of the late writer Kim Dung. The series consists of 60 episodes, divided into five parts: Thiet Huyet Dan Tam, Dong Ta Tay Doc, Nam De Bac Cai, Nine Yin Sutras, and Hoa Son Luan Kiem. Each part has a director in charge.
However, "Condor Hero 2024" was not highly appreciated when it was released. Because many experts believe that the movie plot is too familiar to the audience, it is difficult to create novelty.
As expected, the work debuted online on the Tencent platform (China) from mid-June 2024 quietly, completely obscured among the hit movies released at the same time.
After that, the producers of the new version of "Condor Heroes" suddenly announced that they would stop broadcasting after 30 episodes, when it was only halfway through and still in the "Thiet Blood Dan Tam" part directed by Tu Binh.
The fact that "Condor Hero 2024" suddenly stopped broadcasting shows the failure of the film crew.
Many people speculate that the movie's views were so bad that publisher Tencent removed the project. There is other information that the crew decided to withdraw the film because they wanted to edit the content to save the project.
"Condor Hero 2024" has the participation of famous actors Ha Nhuan Dong, Zhou Nhat Vi, Cao Vy Quang, Minh Dao, Thu Sa, Bao Thuong An, Mencius Nghia, Hoang Nghe, Tran Do Linh , Vuong Hoang Nghi…
In the film, Chu Nhat Vi plays the role of Hoang Duoc Su, while Tran Do Linh portrays the character of Phung Hanh's wife. Chu Nhat Vi is 11 years older than his co-star. Therefore, when two actors stand next to each other, it does not give the feeling of a married couple, but of father and son.
According to Sohu, the audience believes that the film crew's fatal weakness is choosing an actor who is not suitable for the character. Among them, Tran Do Linh's role is typical.
Tran Do Linh has not learned from " Hoa Thien Cot "
Tran Do Linh is a rather unfortunate case among the young female stars of Chinese movies today. Although she got off to a good start with successful projects, later on, she was exhausted because she chose the wrong script and role.
The movie "Thien Cot" in which she acted had a miserably low box office revenue of 4.82 million yuan after 3 days of release.
While the film invested about 100 million yuan (about 348 billion VND).
The film only achieved a rating of 4.8 points on the Maoyan platform (a platform where you have to pay for a ticket to be rated). Most audiences commented on this platform: "Watching movies is a waste of money."
With too low a revenue level, Tran Do Linh's reputation has been seriously affected. She was criticized for not being able to surpass the shadow of her senior Trieu Le Dinh when playing the role of Tieu Cot in the movie.
Thus, from the two projects "Condor Hero 2024" and "Hoa Thien Cot", it can be said that the wrong direction that led to the failure of the Tran beauty was to choose projects that were too classic to remake, not surpassing the shadow of its predecessors. Meanwhile, Tran Do Linh is still quite young and does not have much acting experience, so when she acts in films that have become the audience's childhood, she is constantly compared and criticized.
