Thrilling Supernatural Adventure with Stellar Cast
Story & Plot:
Engaging premise with thrilling relic arcs (e.g., Fishing Line Doll, Rouge Amber). Fast-paced with cliffhangers, but the first 2-4 episodes drag, and the ending feels rushed, leaving some plot points unclear.
Acting & Cast:
Song Weilong and Liu Haocun deliver captivating performances as Luo Ren and Mu Dai. Ao Rui Peng and Zhang Yi Chi shine, with strong chemistry. Minor roles occasionally feel miscast.
Cinematography & CGI:
Eerie visuals fit the tone, but cinematography can feel soap opera-like. CGI is decent but not standout, with some relic effects lacking polish.
Music:
The OST, including Liu Yuning’s tracks, enhances suspense and emotion, perfectly complementing key scenes.
Themes & Character Dynamics:
Strong focus on friendship and subtle romance. The squad’s banter and bonds are highlights, though the romance could be deeper. Themes of revenge and healing resonate.
Rewatch Value:
Thrilling arcs and character dynamics make it rewatchable for sci-fi fans, though pacing issues may deter some.
Pros: Unique, thrilling relic-based plot. Strong performances and squad chemistry. Subtle romance and engaging OST. Binge-worthy with cliffhangers.
Cons: Slow start and rushed ending. CGI and cinematography lack polish. Some miscasting in minor roles.
