First episode and first scene and the ML is already killing the FL, that is the only thing that i really dislike in any Xianxia, i remember that drama that 'normalized' this thing (Ashes of Love), the incredible thing is that people is OK with that, but i can never forget, they can hurt each other but not killing, i hate the writers for doing this also the autors of the books that think that this is a good idea just because the 'redemption' arc. Please tell me that he didn't kill her, so i can continue the drama. Or else drop in the first episode and that would be the first drama in 14 years that i drop in only 1 episode.
I really liked this drama, the actors are so on top in this drama, like any character is so well portrayed, most of the cases are really interesting and the plot is not angsty like in other dramas, i liked the 3 couples and in general the charecters are relly likeable. This drama starts somehow interesting but the second half is way more interesting than the first one. The edition affected some parts and the 'bad guys' (except for those 2) are really dumb and the cases are a little predictable. Overall i liked more, 9 out 10 for me.
I loved the actors, the chemistry, the OST, the costumes, the cinematography, the script (Like how the characters talk), the interactions. The Main plot was really good, but the problem is the rest of the plot. I disliked: The way that Qian Lu died, the constant 'lost their memories' and ' i will sacrifice and not tell the other one', also i really hated that the only thing that Ting Yan did for Sima Jiao was useless. Overall i really loved the character journey even thought Sima Jiao have a better journey, the both actors did such a great job. And since i disliked a little bit the ending i'm just going to asume that everything was a dream about her past lifes, and it was not a 'everything that they did was for nothing and Sima Jiao didn't live his life totally alone and in constant suffering after losing her again for milleniums'. 9 out 10.
This is the perfect example of why dramas should only have one season. I can make a list of dramas where only the first one is good and the rest are only made because of the show's popularity. Imagine watching three seasons of a show where you follow several characters, but only two make it from beginning to end. At the end of the day, one of those characters does absolutely nothing, and the other dies, so everything he did was wasted. No lesson, no justice, just entertainment. No one paid for their crimes; the only ones who won were the bad guys.
As for the characters, the second season had better characters that were more sympathetic. But they all died in such silly ways. For example, Hyeon Ju's death was so silly. They didn't know how to kill her, so they made her look stupid and decided that in the middle of that ordeal, she would turn her back and not realize it. Siwan's character 333 was completely flat, just money and nothing else. The mother killing her son from behind was also silly. 222 not taking the test and committing suicide (Why did everyone commit suicide, by the way?); Gi Hun had almost no lines in these six episodes; he just stood there watching and nothing else; and why were almost all of the characters who made it to the final game characters who had been seen in the background, but so few of the main cast?
Now the script itself, very bad. Imagine having all that money to play again and kill again, and then pretending to be "human" in the final scene of the game, after having killed hundreds of people, including the guards. LOL
It was entertaining, but the story didn't do it justice. 6/10.
I dropped this drama two weeks ago, it was so extremly dumb that ending part at episode 5 also the edition is so bad done they cut like huge parts in the same scene the characters change completly their positions during the same sentence but this i can pass it if the rest is well done, so here is my question does the FL is so powerless during the whole drama? i really like Liu Yu Ning and i want to try just for him, but the production and the plot at that point isn't helping
Overall, it was very nice, with some stories much better than others, but it's clear that everything was good, from the direction, the script, the photography, and of course, the cast. Just because of some weak stories, I give it a 9.5 out of 10. I really liked the very nice OST. It's been years since I've heard an OST with so many good songs.
A good adventure drama that turns into tragedy towards the end, with no ending. I would said that this drama is a perfect 10 from eps 1 to 23, then it gets really messy, i guess the edition at some points was poorly done and you could see some mistakes in the takes and in the story. On the other hand great casting, the main plot is amazing, the OST, the direction, the art and the costumes are so well done, the character development is the best part. 9 out 10 because it doesnt have an ending and i hate season, especially seasons that are not planned in advance and for a S2 of this drama at least we will have to wait 2-4 years.
It's is really entertaining, but at the end is just a live action style were between episodes is full of situations that make no sense. Good music, great comedy, the action is awsome and the friendship is so nice. Overall 9/10
An enjoyable drama with a bad plot and full of holes. Its barely OK, s1 is more funny than the s2, but s2 at least has a better plot, the ending was bad. 7/10
A season that depends of another season. I'm watching the season 2, but as only this season is not that great, it has some funny moments but the plot is really bad and full of holes. 7/10
Please tell me that he didn't kill her, so i can continue the drama. Or else drop in the first episode and that would be the first drama in 14 years that i drop in only 1 episode.
