Donnie Yen, Lam Phong and a series of famous Chinese stars are criticized for being old and still playing young

It is a fact that the characters in the movie, in the story, no matter how many years they go through, they still exist at that age, and the actors and idols in real life, no matter how beautiful and multi-talented they are, over time they will still be. will have to grow old.

It is too much for an artist to change according to the audience's wishes, requiring actors at the age of U60 and U50 to still be as young as their youth. But when they decide to take on a role beyond their ability, viewers must have a stricter perspective.

In Chinese cinema, there is indeed no shortage of male gods and actors, who are heavily criticized for being old and pretending to be a 20-year-old young man.

1.Donnie Yen as Kieu Phong

The information that Donnie Yen plays the role of Kieu Phong was announced during the introduction of the film project Thien Long Bat Bo: Kieu Phong Truyen on May 18, creating mixed opinions in the public. Many opinions expressed the opinion that the 59-year-old actor is no longer suitable to play this role because according to the original, Kieu Phong was very young and passed away at the age of 33.

Kieu Phong is the owner of the famous Cai Bang in the novel Kim Dung. Thanks to her talent and philanthropic spirit, Kieu Phong is respected by many people. Actors who have played this character can be mentioned as Huynh Nhat Hoa, Ho Quan, Duong Huu Ninh.

Many people think that Donnie Yen can ruin the image of a classic character.

In addition, compared to Kieu Phong's brave and powerful image, Donnie Yen was also judged unsuitable. However, in terms of acting or the ability to perform martial arts scenes of Donnie Yen is said to be expected, especially when in recent years swordplay films are often criticized lightly in martial arts scenes.

2.Tran Hao Dan as La Dong Tan

In his youth, Tran Hao Dan was once considered one of TVB's most potential actors, his handsome beauty and cute smile have captured the hearts of many fans. However, after leaving TVB to return to Mainland China to set up a career, although he still worked hard in acting and specialized in taking leading roles in local radio productions, Tran Hao Dan's reputation had suffered a catastrophic decline. He was repeatedly criticized for being old and playing a young role.

Playing the role of La Dong Tan in the film Dong Du Truyen, Tran Hao Dan was criticized for his unsuitable appearance. In the film, La Dong Tan is the male lead, with an upright personality. Used to be a fairy, but because of a mistake, she had to be reincarnated as a normal person. However, he is still a very temperamental person.

Tran Hao Dan at the age of 53 accepted the role of a character described as only about 25 years old, creating controversy. In many scenes, the young man in his twenties, La Dong Tan, still shows wrinkles. Not to mention, the character's shape also has long curly hair that makes Tran Hao Dan look sloppy. When he had to perform action scenes, expressing his psychology, Tran Hao Dan had a forced expression.

Even on Weibo, there are people who mocked that Tran Hao Dan was out of time, so he accepted to play a character who was only half his age. Viewers think that he is too defiant in receiving the film instead of paying attention to the quality of the role and the audience's feelings.

3. Lam Phong as Truong Vo Ky

Once considered an actor with both acting and beauty, Lam Phong has convinced all the most demanding audiences. However, he also could not overcome the ravages of time.

In Ỷ Thien Do Long Ky, the movie version in 2022, Lam Phong playing the role of Truong Vo Ky also received many criticisms. At that time, he was 43 years old, but he played the role of a young and enthusiastic Truong Vo Ky. The audience even called him the middle-aged, oldest version of the screen.

According to the original, Truong Vo Ky is mainly described from a young age to the age of twenty as a gypsy. Thus, it can be said that Truong Vo Ky and Lam Phong have a huge age gap. Lam Phong is more "dumb" by the choice of costumes and hairstyles for the character.

Director Vuong Tinh then spoke about the actor's age compared to the original character: "Because only the king can take revenge, also because his enemy is the political force behind his back. Thanh Con, not the continental sect, that process took about 20 years. When he reached Quang Minh Peak, he was over 30 years old and of course not indecisive, fell in love too much. He only knew at all costs. must become the leader of the Ming religion and become the king."

It can be said that, in a position like Donnie Yen, Lam Phong or Tran Hao Dan, to convince them to only play supporting roles as a background for the young and beautiful juniors, they are somewhat unwilling. However, instead of putting their own interests, actors should also put the value of the work first. At any age, there are characters suitable for that age. Holding the main role in hand without properly recognizing the character's true nature, the result is counterproductive, sometimes becoming a joke to the audience, and also destroys the image that has been built for many years. .
