As the "rating queen" of the small screen, when switching to cinema, Zhao Liying encountered many difficulties and challenges.
Recently, she has acted in many new films such as: "The 20th Article", "Confessions of Kieu Nghien", "The Road of the tigers", "Hoa Ngoai Duong"...
Of which, the film "The 20th Article" alone has good revenue. However, in this film, the actress only plays a supporting role.
The films she starred in such as "The Confessions of Kieu Nghien" and "Hoa Hoang Duong" had not too bad revenue, but were still considered not commensurate with the actress's reputation.
Recently, she starred in the movie "Tuong Vien Long", which is about to be released in theaters.
The project attracted attention not only because of its strong cast but also because of its dramatic comparisons revolving around Duong Mich and Trieu Le Dinh.
In this project, Trieu Le Dinh plays the role of Tay Lam, a writer who supports the female lead. However, the role is heavily "tactless" and lacks action, making the character considered a teaching staff, lacking in appeal in terms of cinematic visual appeal.
In particular, Zhao Liying's way of reading prose caused great controversy when many people commented that she "reads like a textbook", not showing the style of an intellectual.
In the reveal of the film, Duong Mich and Chuong Tu Di create strong emotions with just their eyes, while Trieu Le Dinh's eyes are considered " punch-ins at the camera" and lack depth.
Not only controversy over her acting, Zhao Liying is also criticized for being unattached to the film crew. During promotional events at the Cannes Film Festival and Shanghai Film Festival, she was completely absent, while Duong Mich was always present with Chuong Tu Di, taking photos, interviewing and interacting with the audience.
Therefore, it can be seen that Trieu Le Dinh is not highly appreciated in the project "Tuong Vien Long". Many viewers believe that this could be a role to forget for Zhao Liying in her film career.
It can be said that although successful in TV series, when moving into cinema, Trieu Le Dinh encountered many challenges. She is even considered to have brought television acting to cinema, her mark in this area is not clear and lacks highlights.
