Evaluation of "Nineteen Generations of Ancestors": The entire story of the film is too much like a running cross talk joke, with chaotic rhythm and scattered clues. Guo Degang's filming of the film seems clumsy and lacks imagination. Whether he is talking about cross talk or acting in movies, Yue Yunpeng has no room for breakthrough in acting skills. He just relies on repeatedly acting cute and mean to cope with every plot.
The director's values ??are confusing. It is confusing whether the core view is "appearance does not mean everything" or "appearance is everything". Although Yue Yunpeng was given a time-travel trip to communicate with his ancestors from the Republic of China, Qing Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, Jin Dynasty and ancient times, there was not much content left to see.
At best, the plot is just a preparation for the appearance of many "supporting actors". The film does not have many jokes that can make the audience laugh, and it is difficult to create laughter that makes people laugh. Both the director and the actors I tried my best to make the audience laugh, but the audience just couldn't laugh. Rather than saying it is a wonderful journey through time, it is better to say it is an embarrassing journey full of fools.
