The drama series "The Last Immortal" has recently sparked considerable controversy, primarily focusing on the casting of the male lead and the direction of the plot. Behind this heated discussion, we can delve into multiple perspectives to analyze the successes and controversies surrounding this series. The acting of Gu Jin has been criticized as poor, unable to portray the complexity of the character effectively.

Audiences generally expressed negative evaluations of the plot, considering it distorted and poorly arranged. Particularly in the context of the wedding scene, viewers criticized the lack of chemistry, which made the entire story seem forced. Additionally, viewers were greatly disappointed by Gu Jin's expressionless performance after the extraction of emotions.

The extraction of emotions is a crucial turning point in the plot; however, in Gu Jin's portrayal, this pivotal moment did not receive sufficient presentation and exploration. From this series of controversies, we can identify some underlying issues. Firstly, whether the scriptwriting and character development achieved sufficient depth and rationality has become one of the hot topics of contention.

Lastly, the rationality and naturalness of the plot's design and twists are aspects that require reflection. When facing audience scrutiny, it is crucial for the production team to be willing to humbly accept feedback and approach the creative process with a more professional attitude. They need to consider how to find a balance point in their creation, treating each aspect with greater rigor. This may be the key for Chinese film and television dramas to stand out in the international market in the future.
