Disappointed and annoyed
I was hooked watching this drama from the first episode. The story was interesting, dark, suspenseful, spy movie. I love ZLH and Esther Yu. But oh man, it was all spoiled after I watched the last episode 24. I thought there was episode 25 that I’m missing. But alas, no. Episode 24 was the last one. No special episode after that. No epilogue. No plan for season 2. This drama disappointed me so much I felt so cheated. No sad or happy ending. No open ending that makes you think of possibilities. Nothing to stretch your imagination. It’s as if the whole production was cancelled, the staff packed up and went home. The story has NO ENDING! And I’m still scratching my head asking myself why was this show like that. I will not recommend this at all.Was this review helpful to you?
The male lead became an accessory while the female lead became the back story
I was conflicted and confused about this drama. The title is misleading. The emphasis throughout was on Su Rong Qing, who was supposed to be the 2nd ML by the way. It was all about SRQ’s endless dramatic antics, forever sob story and sociopathic and villainous behavior. I thought they should have called this drama The Psycho Royal. Only ZLH made me tune in till the end. But really, I wasn’t even sure ZLH was the ML when his character was reduced to an accessory of the FL. I felt cheated. The last episode totally ruined this for me especially with that long irritating monologue from the psycho. Only saving grace of this drama is the flawless acting of ZLH and ZJM.Was this review helpful to you?
Started okay, ended not okay
Started okay, comedy with some good scenes. FL is cute and acts well. ML is handsome tall and can act. 1st half was better than 2nd half. What spoiled this for me was the ridiculous and pointless ending. Despite everything they've gone through and the promise of trust and being together forever, FL left the ML for a stupid baseless rumour. Final scene was rushed and unsatisfying.Was this review helpful to you?
Storyline very bad, Xiao Zhan very good
I did not understand the movie at all, i have too many questions. Too many holes in the story. Despite low ratings, I still watched as I read Xiao Zhan's acting was superb. And it was! He is such a talented and amazing actor whose eyes can portray a myriad of emotions. It is watchable if you focus on Xiao Zhan and the sceneries.Was this review helpful to you?
It was painful and boring to watch
Premise of the story should have been good and interesting but I gave up after 9 episodes. I tried but I just couldn’t waste anymore time. The script was horribly written, no suspense. It’s like reading a kindergarten story book. The ML doesn’t have that fierce vibe as a beast and he looked completely uncomfortable with his crooked fake fangs, it was so painful to watch. The FL is so annoying always trying to escape and acting cute. Zero chemistry between ML and FL lead. I feel this was a miscast. It must be a cheap production. Don’t waste your time watching unless you are a fan of the actors and don’t mind being tortured.Was this review helpful to you?
