Character evaluation

Ma chucheng's works are mostly romantic love or action movies, with strong sense of picture. He is good at creating visual effects by lens scheduling. His works always give people the impression that they follow the fashion route, and they do not follow the "ordinary road" in action, funny and sensational. Ma chucheng's handling of the film lens is first-class. He will specially process the image of each protagonist to produce a visual impact on the audience. He likes to use the overhead camera to set off the hero's handsome, or use the close-up to focus on depicting the heroine's youth and beauty. This is Ma chucheng's good play as a photographer. Although every work of Ma chucheng seems to have to try something new, he insists that his films always have such commercial elements as beautiful pictures, vivid content, fashionable and dynamic, so each of his works has many similarities. Ma chucheng didn't pay attention to highlighting his personal style in his early days, and he didn't want to reflect some personal thoughts in every work. His works in this period were more drifting with the tide, but in the fierce market competition environment at that time, this was also Ma chucheng's response to the market (Tencent Entertainment review).
