The Chinese entertainment industry is not without male actors with outstanding appearances but causing controversy about acting.
Vuong Nhat Bac
Originating as an idol, Vuong Nhat Bac created a strong breakthrough when he transformed into Lam Vong Co in the movie "Tran Tinh Muan". After that, he constantly tried his hand at many different genres from historical dramas to cinema. Compared to the early stages, the actor's acting has made certain progress.
However, the weakness still exists. In "Phoen Thanh Chi Ha", in the scene of the father's death, Vuong Nhat Bac's face almost does not show pain, only calmness to the point of being cold.
In the movie "The Wind Pursuer", when opposite Vuong Duong, his eyesight has improved, but the issue of voice still causes controversy. The unclear pronunciation and lack of force in words make some scenes become breathless, making it difficult to catch the emotional rhythm of co-stars.
La Van Hi
Among male actors of the same age, La Van Hi is highly appreciated for his vocal ability. Clear pronunciation, tone adjusted according to character psychology are his strengths, which were once recognized by audiences in the movie "Thuy Long Ngam".
However, his acting is gradually falling into the old path. From the movie "Truong nguyet tan minh" to the movie "Thuy long ngam", the image of "beautiful - strong - tragic" is constantly repeated, with the way of expressing blood-stained, patient scenes is almost undifferentiated. In the martial arts movie "Thuy long ngam", La Van Hi focuses too much on showing off her appearance, from gestures to postures, all tend to be soft, lacking solidity.
In particular, the dance scene, which was an important knot in the storyline, was turned into a beauty show. The movements, expressions, costumes and costumes were too elaborate, completely deviating from the spirit of martial arts, causing the character to lose his gangster spirit.
Yang Yang
Possessing a prominent appearance, but Duong Duong's acting continuously caused controversy. Audiences believe that he gradually fell into a style of acting that leans towards posing, putting the element of handsomeness above portraying the character. In particular, the role in "Khoi lua nhan gian cua toi" significantly affected Duong Duong's image and was associated with the nickname "fat king".
In the role of a firefighter, he should have shown resilience and responsibility, but he often appears with a forced expression, trying to maintain his handsome appearance, and the painful scene is also unreality.
In later works, the acting style keeps the image increasingly clear. In the Tu Tien film, Duong Duong only revolves around maintaining a sophisticated appearance, ignoring the psychological depth and character spirit. With a well-trained foundation, Duong Duong's acting continues to be a big question mark for the audience.
Song Weilong
Tong Uy Long possesses a top-notch appearance in the Chinese entertainment industry. However, from the role of Dung Chi in the movie "Phuong Xu Hoang" to Truong Binh in the movie "Quan Tu Minh", Tong Uy Long continuously disappointed when always maintaining a cold, almost indifferent face.
Especially in the movie "Quan tu minh", the confrontational scenes between him and Tinh Bach Nhien are considered to lack interaction and emotion. The character is originally built as a weak, intelligent scholar, but through acting it becomes naive, lacking depth, making the audience feel like he is just "completing his mission in front of the camera".
Luu Vu Ninh
Born as a singer, Luu Vu Ninh's clear strength is a deep, strong voice, clear pronunciation, and relatively full emotions, becoming a plus point in movies such as "Nhat niem quan son" or "Khom lung". However, acting limitations are still difficult to ignore.
In the movie "Nhat niem quan son", although the action scenes are done quite accurately, his eyes lack the necessary sharpness, sometimes creating a feeling of emptiness. In the emotional scenes opposite Luu Thi Thi, Luu Vu Ninh is quite restrained in expression, mainly relying on his voice to convey his mood, making the audience compare him to a "human voice machine".
Ho Nhat Thien
The lack of formal training has long made Ho Nhat Thien's acting assessed as lacking in depth. In the movie "Tich Hoa Chi", the scene where the male lead takes off his mask should have been a "explosive" moment, but it did not meet expectations due to stiff expressions and soulless eyes. In the scenes opposite the female lead Truong Tinh Nghi, Ho Nhat Thien mainly squinted or poked his lips to express emotions.
It is worth mentioning that in real life or in entertainment programs, the male actor shows a completely different image, very natural and knows how to create laughter. This contrast makes the audience even more regretful for his unexploded acting ability on screen.
