Recently, there are a lot of high-quality military dramas on the screen. "Special Warfare Glory" starring Yang Yang, "Ace Trooper" starring Huang Jingyu and Xiao Zhan, and "Hello, Flame Blue" starring Gong Jun have been broadcast one after another. There are "You Are My Fortress", "The Trumpeter is in Place", "Fall in Love with Special Forces", etc., which formed a small climax of a wave of military dramas.

These works are quite different from the temperament of traditional military dramas such as "Bright Sword" and "Soldier Assault". Most of them are starred by popular actors with good looks. The growth line and the emotional line are parallel, both eye-catching and blood.

  Hardcore filming is not sloppy

  "Special Warfare Glory" starring Yang Yang and Li Yitong was recently broadcast. It mainly tells the story of the post-90s recruit Yan Poyue played by Yang Yang who grew from a "thorn-headed soldier" to a "team leader", showing the fearless youth of contemporary soldiers. and passionate blood.

The director of the play, Xu Jizhou, once directed "The Indelible Designation", and the screenwriter Feng Ji participated in the creation of "Operation Red Sea" and "Fire Blue Blade", all of which are masters of military themes.

The leading actor Yang Yang once said that the role he most wanted to play was the special forces, so "Glory of Special Warfare" is a script tailored for Yang Yang.

  "Special War Glory" adheres to high-standard production standards. The shooting cycle is as long as 9 months. There is still a special training period of 1 month before the launch. The average shooting time of each episode is nearly 1 week.

The audience can see Yang Yang's neat and tidy movements in the play. His dark face and sturdy figure are also different from the past, which shows that he has undergone solid training.

The military action scenes in the play are very well-organized, with action, gunfights, and explosions, showing the director's rich experience in shooting military dramas.

  Different from Xu Sanduo's grassroots counterattack in "Soldier Assault", the protagonist Yan Poyue in "Special Warfare Glory" has a "king style" as soon as he appears.

As a recruit, he broke the whole regiment's record in the cross-country running event. During the actual combat exercise, he directly attacked the opponent's headquarters. He also pointed out that there was a problem with the training organization of the instructors, and he turned to command himself.

Yan Poyue was assigned to the cooking class for some reason, and here he became a "cooking master" again, which can be said to be full of the protagonist's halo.

"Special War Glory" places the growth and transformation of the protagonist in the collision and transformation between individual strength and collective strength.

Director Xu Jizhou said that military-themed works have an eternal conflict, that is, "the collision between individual and group, individuality and commonality, individual heroism and collectivism".

  In addition, "Special War Glory" does not idolize it like recent military dramas, and pleases the audience by talking about love.

In the play, the staff officer Ai Qianxue played by Li Yitong and Yan Poyue are more like the sympathy between the two powerful people.

  Grafting idol drama to be seen

  Not only "Special Warfare Glory", military themes have become a recent screen hit.

Some time ago, "Ace Troopers" starring Huang Jingyu and Xiao Zhan just ended. The play starts with two new recruits, Gao Liang and Gu Yinye, and tells about the construction and development of the army in the past 40 years.

"Hello, Flame Blue" starring Gong Jun focuses on firefighters.

Last year, "You Are My Fortress" starring Bai Jingting and Ma Sichun focused on the SWAT team, "Falling in Love with the Special Forces" starring Huang Jingyu and Li Qin interprets the story of the special forces, and "The Trumpet in Place" starring Li Yifeng is about the Rocket Army 's episodes.

In addition, Noon Sunshine will also produce a contemporary military life drama, "We Are Young" starring Wan Qian, Qin Hao, and Li Jiahang.

  The current military dramas have obvious characteristics. Most of them are starred by popular actors with good looks.

Military dramas are also regarded as a springboard for the transformation of traffic actors.

In this type of work, the protagonist's image is often tough and strong, both intelligent and brave, and at the same time has a strong tenderness, and can even show his muscles generously, which can help the traffic actors to escape from the stereotyped "prosperous beauty". Broaden the way of play and transform into a "tough guy".

Moreover, military dramas also belong to the theme of the main theme. The sense of mission and responsibility of soldiers will bring more positive energy bonuses to the actors, thus attracting many popular actors to play the leading role in military dramas.

  Military dramas also have a tendency to be idolized.

In recent years, many works have revolved around the stories of officers and doctors, such as "You Are My Fortress", "Fall in Love with Special Forces", "Hello, Flame Blue", etc., which are basically the same as "Descendants of the Sun". .

The plot routines are the same. The hero and heroine in the play are basically very skilled. Because of misunderstandings, they became happy enemies. They approached each other in rescues again and again, and finally realized the double harvest of love and career.

In the play, the cohabitation life, the ubiquitous wall, and the sprouting deer, often make people feel like they have entered the idol drama studio by mistake.

  Compared with the durability of works such as "Bright Sword" and "Soldier Assault", most of the new military dramas in recent years have not been disturbed except that "You Are My Fortress" broke the circle slightly.

It seems that the grafting of military dramas and idol dramas is not unsatisfactory. Many audiences are nostalgic for the military works that were full of male hormones in the past.

The hardcore filming of "Special War Glory" does not know whether it can become a symbol of the resurgence of masculinity in military dramas.
