Golden Feathers (2025)

High Quality Vertical - Best Yet

I saw this being heavily promo'd on social media just yesterday.. to my surprise it was available, in full, as soon as I woke up this morning!

This review will contain some minor spoilers.

First of all, we can finally stop calling Winner (Logic) "My Stand In guy" after seeing him in a lead role here in Golden Feathers. His acting in this is great, and his chemistry with Chris (Leo) is fire. Chris also did a fine job with the acting. The sister, Tanya, was an unlikable character, so she delivered on that front. Janine played a small role, and added a bit of angst to the overall plot.

The story is a classic "I'll seduce him then break his heart when he falls for me" trope. However, after their first kiss (they kiss quite a bit for a vertical, and have sex at least twice) there was no way Leo was going to be able to let go of Logic.

Because it's a vertical short, the story moves along nice & quick. Very little to no slow points. It took me a few hours to finish, but that's only because Saturday is a heavy BL day right now, so I paused to watch my weeklies. When those were done, I finished this off in one sitting.

The music has a lot of BG tracks we've heard before, but I'm not mad at it. There was a sense of familiarity that this is a WeTV production. Most of the transitions between episodes were smooth. The overall quality of the film work and post was really clean. You can tell they put money into this - compared to other verticals it felt like watching a regular drama in vertical format.

Overall, I highly recommend Golden Feathers. It checked all my boxes for a vertical, but surpassed my expectations in almost every way. Now let's get #WinnerChris their own full series pronto!

"Winner"Tanatat Kunaneksin was the only reason I watched the series.

I watched the series on the Tencent (WeTV). I'm a VIP member and I still had to pay extra to watch the series. I'll let you decide if the series is worth the extra fee.

This is my first vertical series. I watched it because "Winner" was a lead actor in the series.

The storyline was simple and straightforward. The writing was nothing special.
I would like to see them in a better written story.

The acting was decent but not great by any standard. The M/M leads had good on screen chemistry,

There were cute moments, lots of kissing scenes, and 2 NC scenes. The kissing scenes and playful banter between the leads wws the best part of the series.

The OST had several familiar songs from other BL stories.
