Moments of excellence in utterly unhinged plot?!
This drama starts ridiculously, progressess ridiculously and ends ridiculously. But, shockingly, it also delivers several well-acted tender and touching scenes. And i wonder if those few moments of excellence CAN be enough for me to say this was (almost) a good drama? Reccommend it to someone, even?!
It was certainly very enjoyable. I'm, for sure, intrigued by the dynamics of the main quadruple and entertained by their silly little plots.
Some people say that the drama went downhill after Wang Shuo appeared but i enjoyed those telenovella twists. Just SIX absolutely CRAZY people plotting. Did it understand why? Were their schemes justified? Not really, but it was fun.
Last 4 episodes felt odd after emotional climax in eps 18-20 but i am not mad at it, too... It gave us some unnecessary drama and necessary fluff. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Overall, the OST was good, the cinematography had NO bussiness to be this GOOD and what makes me over-rate this drama slightly is the acting. I feel like both leads delivered so surprisingly good performance, it almost felt wasted at this story. Im not going to talk about the story because... i have never wanted to say "exitus acta probat" when describing a TV show until today. The author had some ok ideas and had to tie them up with some random shit and it somehow worked.
So, yeah, this was a guitly pleasure type of thing so i'm rating this 8/10. Minus 2 points bcs nobody said "mačkáš mi hada, debile" when there were so many OPPORTUNITIES TO SAY IT...
Oh, and I also Hate this drama for reminding me how HOT can someone look with a cigarette >:(
PS. I'm wearing all Guo Chengyu's fits this spring/summer and nothing will stop me.
