Chapter 640: Warm Response
The release of "Autumn Moon over the Han Palace" started with huge conflicts and negative information. However, as the movie became a hit, its reputation gradually spread from the mouths of audiences who had watched the movie in the early stages, and the movie finally got rid of keywords that had nothing to do with the movie itself, such as "Fu Feiqian's various affairs", "Yang Huayue's fall from a horse", and "He Lu Shen's green hat".
Audiences wrote a large number of sincere positive reviews on movie review websites and Weibo, attracting more people to buy tickets to watch the movie.
"I'm not a shill. Autumn Moon Over the Han Palace is really a good movie. The plot is smooth, and all the actors are good-looking and have good acting skills, especially Liu Man. When she appeared on the stage, I felt different from other actors. It was as if others were 'playing' roles, but she was playing 'herself'. It was so real. Looking at her, I felt like I was back in the Han Dynasty."
"At first I had no interest in this movie. Historical commercial films are not my cup of tea, but my bestie insisted on dragging me to watch it. Thanks to my bestie! I discovered a treasure movie, it's very, very good! Although it's a commercial film, the director didn't make it exaggerated at all, the details were well portrayed, and the interactions between the characters were very real, especially the scene where Wang Zhaojun, who had just come out of the cold palace, knelt in front of the king and kowtowed again and again to ask for a marriage. I, a person with a high tear point, cried when I saw it. Liu Man's acting was so real. I saw determination, fearlessness and despair in her eyes. The movie didn't directly tell me what the cold palace was like, but Liu Man's performance made me imagine how cruel it was. It's hard to believe that she is a newcomer with only two movie acting experiences."
"Liu Man's acting in this movie is amazing, much better than in "Listen, the Sound of the Wind". Every time she appears in the role of Princess Huayang, people in the cinema exclaim 'Wow~~'. The beautiful and dignified princess has a luminous aura all over her body. The key is that her behavior is natural and spontaneous, without any affectation. No wonder her online name is 'Princess and Man'. It seems that she knows herself very well."
"I studied music, and the thing that impressed me most was Princess Huayang playing the guqin in the ancient pavilion. The piece should be called "Autumn Moon". Liu Man played it before during her birthday live broadcast. It turns out that the guqin must be played in a specific occasion and with a specific story background. The same piece of music has a completely different artistic conception. Perhaps it is also due to the post-production of the movie. But if you listen carefully, you can find that this "Autumn Moon" runs through the entire movie. The same melody changes from sadness to joy. It's magical. I can only say that Liu Man's guqin skills are really superb."
"The only thing that was a bit out of place was the kiss between Wang Zhaojun and Shanyu at the end. It was a romantic and warm scene, but I laughed when I saw it. And I wasn't the only one in the cinema who laughed. It was really funny. No wonder Lin Zhi teased Liu Man and Tang Tu at the premiere. He had too much resentment."
…
The word that appears most frequently in the comments is "real". No matter whether the audience puts themselves into the role of Wang Zhaojun or Princess Huayang, they feel as if they are in the scene.

Every year, countless film and television dramas with historical themes are released. For example, Qing Dynasty dramas have been filmed so many times that the audience's tastes have been spoiled. When people watch other historical films, they usually want to find bugs, trying to find out which plot does not conform to real history, or which actor's acting is awkward, or the costumes are too modern, and so on.
But these picky audiences had nothing to say after watching "Autumn Moon over the Han Palace". The film had a strong cast and high production standards, which convinced them to give it high scores.
Some netizens specifically mentioned that Wang Xiangqin also performed very well in this movie. Although Wang Xiangqin was hailed as a box office guarantee, the response to the costume dramas he starred in was not as good as his modern dramas. His fans all said that he was not suitable for costume dramas.
Wang Xiangqin posted a special Weibo post saying, "(smiles proudly) You can't find any faults with my costume drama this time, right? Thanks to my good daughter @公主且嫚, who taught me ancient manners step by step. Director Lin was speechless. Progress makes people happy! I will give my good daughter a big red envelope for the New Year!"
Liu Man responded to this Weibo post, "Waiting for the big red envelope from my father (drooling)."
Fans pushed their Weibo posts up, saying, "What's going on? Compared to being fans of Liu Man and Tang Tu, I actually think Liu Man and Wang Xiangqin are a more loving father-daughter pair."
"The main reason is that their kissing scene was too awkward, there were no pink bubbles at all, and their acting skills were totally off the charts."
"It's probably because they are too familiar with each other and can't let go."
"Looking at the look in Tang Tu's eyes in the movie, his love for Liu Lan is very real, but I don't know if it's just acting."
"It's a pity that the heroine of Tang Tu's new play is not Liu Man. Hum, I'm not happy."
