How to evaluate the TV series The Journey to the West? What's the connection with Journey to the West?

Since it is a journey to the west, it is natural to tell the story after the journey. When I was a child, I watched The Journey to the West many times, and I always burst into tears in that part of Monkey King Thrice Defeats the Skeleton Demon. I always feel that the Monkey King is so wronged that I have to go back to save Master and put on an iron ring. This is not very understandable to me as a child.

The Monkey King, under the master's jurisdiction, has too many constraints. Although he is naturally arrogant in his bones, he is always interfered by various external factors, so he can't punish evil and promote good.

So The Journey to the West has filled this gap. In this play, the Monkey King has defeated the Buddha by fighting. He has cast off his shackles and is no longer bound by anyone. Teaching the bad guys a lesson is naturally exciting.

If there is any connection with Journey to the West, it is that the protagonist (Tang Priest and Master) remains unchanged, and the story structure is still a mythical background. Compared with those later scripts or movies in which Tang Priest fell in love with Monkey King and fell in love, this drama still inherited the culture of westward journey.

Over the years, many people have been following the trend of this drama, which is nothing more than laughing at the special effects of ghosts and beasts in the drama. At this point, I really can't refute it. It is estimated that the editor's thinking is ahead of time, and he has a deep understanding of the ghost and animal culture of Bili Bili 18 years ago.

But how can you give up a great mystery play because of the special effects of this ghost animal?

You know, the screenwriter of this play is the money who created the four-part "Renjie"! So when I first watched this drama, I felt particularly brain-burning. A bad guy I thought turned into a good guy, but when you thought he was really a good guy, he turned into a bad guy, which really turned my head.

I think the portrayal of the Monkey King in this play is the most perfect one. I don't mean to belittle the Monkey King in The Journey to the West. At that time, he was under the control of his master, but he couldn't control himself. In this play, he is an individual, and he doesn't have to endure the noise of Pig and Pig, the inaction of Friar Sand and the preaching of Tang Priest. So he can be fearless, arrogant and smart ... Di Renjie?

I believe this the Monkey King must be the predecessor of Di Renjie.

Actually, sometimes I'm a little embarrassed to tell others that I like this play. After all, this drama gives people the impression that Ghost Livestock+Secondary Two. Many people who haven't seen this drama will follow suit without thinking, and it will simply degenerate to a grade.

However, please don't ruin this drama because of ghosts and animals! Its subtlety will not be understood until you really see it. The Monkey King here is not a monkey played by Dicky Cheung, Chen Musheng and Zhou Tao. He is a man who stands tall and struggles with the Buddha! Smart, honest, brave and caring, you can hardly find any faults in him. He is the embodiment of my grandson.

Please automatically ignore the special effects of ghosts and animals and the Monkey King's facial paralysis.

In particular, Ma Yashu, the actor of Bai Lianhua, is amazing. Don't get me wrong, Bai Lianhua was not derogatory. Finally, her film was called "The Virgin of Bai Lianhua", and the title of the film was such a ghost ... The screenwriter was too advanced!

PS: The theme song, the ending song and all the episodes of this play are very nice. Unfortunately, many episodes can't be found now.
