Somewhat Disappointing
Different from the original. Not what I was expecting. The original was entertaining, well acted, good story and even had humor in it. I laughed!Well, it the original was a hard act to follow. In this the lead princess Zhaohua was unlikeable. The story wasn't clear either. It did become clear when it took the weird turn in the house of the Step Empress. I was able to put everything together, then. Some didn't like it, but I did because it explained much. The actors took too long to tell the story.
I did enjoy seeing the leads from the original series, though.

Loved It
A short but sweet review. I'd rate the series episode by episode. Some episodes were outstanding drama. Some were soap operish. Well cast, Well written. I liked the scenes that looked like the desert to me. I'd rewatch a few episodes to understand what actually happened. It was always clear to me. But in the end it was a good series. Worth watching if you like adventure, mystery and a bit of romance.Was this review helpful to you?
