I fall in love with the ML
Episode 1-5 quite bored but I stay watch this because the ML look hot.. storyline so far okay.. got twist of plot. The three musketeers (ML,YS,FX) alll look good… I didn’t like FL character…still 4 more episode…ML good in acting, fit with the character and look super hot in fight scene..
FL her character are too weak.. but the actress look cute..
I don’t like the cousin and his mom btw..
The fight scene in the parking lot… when the FL were drunk but the ML try to hide that he fight those man/women in black are the best.. 😅😅😅

An interesting Mystery Romance Drama but the last 4 episodes were a disappointment
My Lethal Man is a mystery romance drama starting not well-known actors and actresses with backgrounds in supporting roles in other C-dramas.The production quality is so bad; everything is so bright, especially during the kissing scenes. I am not sure why Chinese dramas always do that for cheap quality productions on streaming platforms like iQiyi, Tencent, MangoTV, etc.
I enjoyed the mystery aspect of the drama when the ML tried to solve the 17-year-old car accident that took his family's life. The plot was interesting until the last 4 episodes when things went wrong and stupid.
Even though it has a happy ending, the way it unraveled was so bad, and the acting was not great for either of the entire cast.
The FL does a better job than the ML, and the supporting CPs were not great. Some of the songs in the OST were good.
I am giving it a 6.5 because of the music and the first 20 episodes.

Trashy plot but Hotty Male lead
The plot is trash. The story has no coherence and no newness in story. If the scenes had more logical connection with, I would raise it to one bar. It was more like jumping to scenesThe FL and her friend are also trash. The friend was TOO CRINGE.
But I rated the drama only because of the ML. The moments when he weared glasses was 🔥🔥. Undoubtedly he is charismatic. The way he pulled the syringe was so hot. I am sure that this drama is only watched because of the Male lead.
I wll rewatch only the moments of the lead.

Our Lethal Couple
1. ACTINGIt's a collection of action+suspense+romance+depression/trauma. Honestly I really LOVE THE ACTING of the lead Fan Zhixin & Li Mozhi. Their CHEMISTRY & EMOTION are on top.
I didn't expect that Yan Xingcheng character will have many layers of emotion. I'm worried when he's angry cuz his anger really hits right. His madness ain't a joke. Then we he cried, he really looks helpless. When he got the attack, I'm sad for him. Seriously I hope Fan Zhixin can get more recognition by this character.
Li Mozhi also become my anticipated actress now. Her crying scene makes me feels sad too. She can varies her acting from the low confidence Shen Manning to the brave Manning. Her emotion hits right for me.
Together they supports each other through thick & thin. Their dialogue "I'm here" during peril situation really comforting.
2. OST
The OST is good here. It really brings out the right vibe for certain scene.
3. DIRECTING
I love how some scene are well directed to portray the right emotion/sequence. As example, the scene where the ML holds his hand out to help FL to get up from her devastated state. Then, the scene reversed when it's FL turn now to hold out her hands to ML while he's on his low state of life. Also, the drawing of drowning child that FL drawn really have a deep meaning to the ML that it makes him finally letting out his emotion after so much suppression. I really love the depth of this scene.
The cinematography also nice. The way they control the lighting really suits the mood either to be romantic/aesthetic.
4. STORY
I love the suspense they have in this series. Almost every episode got me hooked on the screen and eagerly wait what will happen to them. I understand that maybe the plot not someone's cup of tea but at least the suspense can bring us to watch this. Not to mention some plot twists also left me surprised.
I rarely enjoy modern chinese drama but this one really poke my interest to watch :D (P/S: this drama also kind of giving me a kdrama vibe ;D)

Really good thriller with a lot of tension everywhere! Give it a try!
This defintely was not what I expected but it did not disappoint. I think the overall storyline was really good like it's a good concept but I found it a little confusing to watch so I feel like rewatching would fill in the gaps. The story was really unique, I found a lot of reviews saying the same thing and it's true. This story really was very different from most of the other c-dramas I've watched. It has elements of comedy. It starts off a little jolly but it gets more and more serious and more and more passionate as well. It has a LOT of tension. Great acting from the cast too! Absolutely loved the skills portrayed here on screen. Both acting and the cinematography has been done very well. A nd you def should rewatch this drama because it surely will make you understand the plot better. AND the OST is perfectly fits the tension in the drama! Overall, A very well potrayed, interesting story taht is very tense, thrilling and full of suspense with a very passionate and cute love story too.🌹👭🏻🌹👁️🤵🏻🌌Was this review helpful to you?

MY LETHAL MAN: TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN
My Lethal Man is a new Chinese drama following the story of Zhuang Xin Yan, the granddaughter of a rich and influential family, and Shen Man Ning, a local art student (both played by Li Mo Zhi). The drama begins with the story of twin roses. The two roses are identical, however when they encounter one another it results in one dying and the other beginning a new life. Similar to the story of the roses, Man Ning and Xin Yan quickly become entangled in an unexpected kidnapping case. However, Xin Yan dies in a car accident after she sacrifices herself to protect Man Ning.When Man Ning wakes up in the hospital she learns of Xin Yan’s death, meets Yan Xing Cheng (played by Fan Zhi Xin), and is forced to become Xin Yan and Xing Cheng’s fiancé. Although Xing Cheng is cold and mysterious, he prepares Man Ning for her entry into the highly political and tense succession war of LH Star, Xin Yan’s family company. As the Xing Cheng and Man Ning work together and overcome the drama and difficulties in the Zhuang Mansion and LH Star, the two slowly grow closer and eventually learn to love and rely on each other. Additionally, they probe deeper into the unsolved, mysterious car accident that Xin Yan barely survived 17 years ago.
Thoughts
My Lethal Man is definitely not your typical Chinese drama. Although it follows the familiar theme of conglomerate succession, the series has a unique take on romance. Rather than having two characters fall for one another and take their time to establish a relationship, Man Ning and Xing Cheng are forced together as a couple and gradually grow closer.
Although Man Ning is initially portrayed as a weak and nervous character, she eventually becomes more confident and reassured as she attempts to become a legitimate Xin Yan and heir to LH Star. I also liked how she was willing to fight for her relationships. It was nice to see a Chinese drama break the stereotypical weak female lead who walks away from a relationship. Despite being strangers, Man Ning and Xing Cheng have great chemistry as they continue to grow closer with one. However, the connection between Xin Yan and Xing Cheng is definitely surprising and unexpected to say the least!

Interesting
Right now I am confused with only one episode. Why in the world is Yan Xing Cheng / Yan Yi to convince Shen Man Ning she is Zhuang Xin Yan. She already know who she is. I guess as it goes on she'll find out the truth. This Storyline peaked my interest. right now it has a lot of suspense to it. I don't see the chemistry between the main leads. I guess that too will change. All kinds of questions pop up. What about her parents and friends? They know who she is. How in the world is she going to make up her mind in one day!? Come on Producers!The music is lacking for right now. It doesn't appear to match the occasion. They may have scored the music wrong.
How in the world is she going to remember everything about Zhuang Xin Yan in a couple days? She is stumbling all over the lace and no-one can see it. Really!? Another mindless, weak willed will not fight back and allows Yan Yi grab her face and she does nothing! Typical Chinese romance drama plot. The ML is a strong, rich, can do anything he wants person, with no personality. This Drama is starting to go down hill rapidly. I hope there is a subplot to this. This storyline has so many wholes in it. Like if she quit would could he do?
Final in episode 4 storyline is getting interesting. The acting has stepped up and the chemistry is taking form. For once can Chinese Writers and Producers has the FL not be a mumbling, weak minded, you can do any thing you want and I will not fight back person? Just Once! I guess Shen Man Ning can't dress herself. Why hasn't Shen Man Nin figure out that Yan Xing Cheng needs her more than she needs him?
From looking at the wealth and the dirt they do to keep their livelihood, it's a good storyline.
I have to ask: Why do Chinese Actors have a need to look white and Pale?
The suspense is fantastic. Even though I have pointed out some of the negatives in the Storyline, it is a good series. The twist and turns are so unexpected. When you think you got it figured it out and throw something back at you. Among the suspense and danger, there are parts that are very funny. This is why I like this Series, you don't know what you get. Stand tune. I did not expect that in Episode 19! Did I mention that this is also a Murder Mystery?
at first you will not like Yan Yi, but towards the end, you'll cheer for him; because all the crap he went through. You also will figure out Shen Man Ning, the way she is. Her best friend Rao Mei Na, was a totally friend and she was funny. I would recommend this storyline be watched.

Plot summary: Damsel in distress and the hero with a traumatic past
If you like watching a damsel in distress being saved by her love interest, then you can go ahead and watch, you are going to enjoy it👍But if you don't or only enjoy it when it's done right (like me) then you'll have a lot of problems with this series.
1. She shouldn't have gone along with the ml's plan to impersonate the doppelganger, why, just why would you meet your doppleganger, get kidnapped because of her and nearly die and then decide to start living in her place, it's like she forgot that the doppleganger was the reason she was kidnapped, got in an accident and lost her eyes in the first place. I don't care if she saved her and gave her, her eyes (what was she going to use it to do anyway, she was already dead). She shouldn't have followed a stranger to a strange house to live a strange life just because he told her to 😩
2. The male lead chokes the fl twice in the beginning and my girl didn't get angry at him, she just glossed over it and proceeded to fall in love with him which brings me to my next point
3. Why did the female lead fall in love with him? Because he was handsome? Mysterious? Or because he cried in his sleep? Bro wasn't even nice to her😩😩
4. I really really loved the 2FL, until she became obsessed with the ML 😮💨
5. And I couldn't tell if the 2ML liked the FL or the 2Fl 😂😂
6. The female lead's character was so irritating to watch, always shaking, whimpering and refusing to function like a normal human being without the male lead 😩 I wanted to reach into the series and smack her on the head all the time.
7. Nobody can convince me that the male lead actually loved the FL, he just loved how much she loved him and she was crazy for him, crazy enough to kiss him in front of everyone during his engagement party to the 2FL. I was cringing so hard at that scene 😭
In summary, it's not a bad watch, the first half of the series was okay, everything just went downhill from there😣

I love a LETHAL‼️? but Caring man☺️
Overall i just really enjoyed this show, the story is not that unique but the execution and twists are worth a watch. I'm not familiar with the actors and actresses age but its just my opinion, that the fl actress is not a good match for the ml actor, he looks quite younger for me that it looks like a 10 year age gap romance or smthng, but that's just me. I like how the lethal character of ml towards the fl did not last tht long and I immediately see how caring and warm he is despite who he lost. But he is still a very lethal man, towards others, especially to his enemies. I also like the romance of the sidecast and i love how it ended. I also prefer the funny one more than the silent macho type. Overall, did not waste my time at all and worth my time👍Was this review helpful to you?

Watched only for Fan ZhiXin and he didn't disappoint at all
FANN ZHII XINNN... you are one gem of an actor I need to tell you that! first watched him in My Girl as SL and he just swoon away all the attention apart from the main leads! Then watched him in Our Secret, again had to watch him as Second lead and wanting to watch him as ML one day and yes the dream came true and how... we could witness every node of his art in just one character- Romantic, jealous, a bit psycho, angry, domineering CEO, and what not! full package boss (bole toh paisa vasool!!)If I had watched this drama in theatre, there were many scenes were I literally wanted to cheer for him by whistling and clapping😂😂😂
Apart from him, the FL was also so so so good at her role, we could see Zhaung Xinyan when she played her for the tiny part and ofcourse Shen Manning when she played her, the difference was very clearly visible and here she won as an actor! hatsoff! Also, the Indian audience who is reading my review, can you agree to me that she is Rashi khanna's doppleganger, omg for me, they look exactly the sameee!!! such coincidence 😲😲
The story, bit sucked to me because I felt it went round and round and the drama did not take the name of stopping and the story mostly focused on the shares of LH group and Zhaung Family instead of main leads love story, they could have shown more of them rather than those foolish plans and plots. also, the story ended in rather unsatisfied way, cause I wanted to see what happened to Jaikai and Caixuan after his mother's arrival but it was all left to audience to assume that they might be in jail, yes agreed their deeds were such they must be in jail but did their intention changed, did Caixuan wholeheartedly apologized to others for murdering 3 people...

A Dark but Beautiful Revenge Romance
If you’re hesitating about watching this, stop. It is a RIDE. I have watched about ten dramas in the past month and have barely made it into any of them. However, this one… wow.“My Lethal Man” is an intense show. Intense emotion, intense mysteries, intense chemistry. The acting is phenomenal, and the writing keeps you hooked and guessing. Our two leads absolutely astounded me, both as actors and as characters.
This show may be the most beautiful one I’ve ever seen as far as chemistry goes. They are electric. The kiss scenes are quite literally the best I’ve seen in a drama. And these two look like they are actually in love. I don’t have words.
It’s a melodrama; so expect some of those crazy twists. But, surprisingly, it doesn’t fall prey to the ridiculousness of many C-Dramas. And, it despite the angst, the writers deliver an excellent ending with our characters having developed so beautifully and finally finding healing.

A nice series with a great acting
If you're looking for a drama to pass the time, then you have found smth to watch.The only thing I'd have to say is that the ML is a huge red flag at the beginning so it's hard to go past that. He doesn't treat the FL well nor does he care about her. Even if I watched it a long time ago, I know that I was able to finish it bc he changes for her (cliché ofc).
But the actors are really great and the story is pretty good so I think it helps with the red flags, I recommend this drama if you're looking for something simple !!
