I think Jing Tian did an excellent job portraying Cui Lin’s diverse personality. She brought out the character’s multifaceted nature with great skill and nuance.

Xu kai and Jing Tian are experienced at riding horses. Xu Kai loves to ride horses. In Court Lady, he rode horses. In interviews, he always says he loves horse riding, archery, fighting, sword, spears, and anything physical. The horses for the main leads in WOL were imported, tall, and fierce horses that were hard even for the staff to control them. The scene where Li Ni is on his horse and says he will marry Cui Lin, he rides off fast and the camera clearly shows Xu Kai riding it because so often in editing, audience never know who is doing the actions.

Tell that to every other drama that has its own flaws. There was big fighting scene in a movie using heavy CGI to depict thousands of bodies fighting and none of the swords were stained with blood, and the bodies were blurred and looked so fake . I prefer if they can be creative and use 20 people and show some realistic fighting that is beautifully done. I prefer artistic work to computer generated fake stuff unless it can look realistic and not fake. If they could have found a beautiful location to film Wonderland, it would have really enhanced the movie but it's okay. it does not prevent me from enjoying the essence of the movie.

CGI when not done right looks fake. The story, plot, characters, and the acting are more important to me; the chemistry of the entire cast is the most critical to success of the movie. Chemistry can make or break a movie. Every movie has flaws. You can have perfect fake riding and perfect CGI but lack of chemistry, the movie will bomb.

How can you make an assertion that the actors cannot ride a horse, or is that your opinion?

so it is true then

it's a good thing you are not the majority view

perhaps these sensitive dysfunctional fans took it to heart that he's insulting Yang Zi when he's actually talking about the character, and not the actress.

maybe it means best decision the fl made in life?

isn't the storyline about the ml goes from a cold person who focus on making money to finding that happiness of family life is more valuable than making money? and the fl breaks from family, goes on a journey of self-discovery from to become more matured and independent after she works alongside the ml business? Judging from the trailer, her family is silly and will be entertaining to watch.

it is so disheartening to me to see these kinds of discussions about Xu Kai and everywhere I go on internet, I find haters here and there.

I have watched enough Xu Kai interviews to know that Xu Kai has a deep understanding of the characters in his movies.

I hope Xu Kai 's role has some meat to it. I'm looking forward to As Beautiful As You more than this one. But this one got an award for most anticipated. From the trailer, it feels like an inspiring, charming and funny family movie. I like that kind of movie so I will be looking forward to it. The trailer of Xu kai with his grandmother is sweet.

Watching a clip of Best Choice Ever, Xu Kai leaves his own unique charm on every character he portrays. It's almost as if he does it intentionally. He brings every character to life according to his interpretation of the role. Although the characters are different, but then there are instances of his own unique charm that he seems to intentionally put in, like leaving his own mark on every character.

Alen Fang has a big screen presence, an artistic flair, and unique sense of style. He truly brought his character to life.

I don't know if it's true or meaningful, but I saw a comment on reddit from 4 days ago that the Douban rating for WOL has increased from 6.5 to 6.8.

We all have unique perspectives. When I watch a drama, I try to understand what the producers and writers want me to take away from the movie. If a character seems out of place, I try to understand why they were written that way. In my opinion, all Chinese costume dramas have crazy character to create conflict. No conflict, no fun. I actually like the craziness, it's part of the entertainment for this kind of light movie, in fact the crazier the better since WOL is part comedy anyway. I feel that there is a lot packed in WOL. It's made to appear light-hearted on the surface but underneath it's heavy with underlying messages and themes dealing with human condition that are profound. For example, there is a message about how when people are at the end of their rope or desperate, they will pray and seek higher power, which is what Cui Lin did and she had never believed in prayer. Another message I really like in this movie is taking care of the elderly. Anyway, there are way way too many examples. The best theme from WOL is to value life, cherish it, protect it, never give up and live well. That's what sets WOL apart from a typical romance comedy/drama.

I am aware of the ending of Journey to Love was not made clear to viewers and left many to wonder and ponder and guess and ask each other and felt let down. I believe that comparing movies is not a good idea as it can reduce the enjoyment you get from watching them. Every movie has its own unique qualities and is created for a different purpose and different audience.

He loved his other two sons because he was easily fooled by them. Li Ni was too smart for all of them. He did not fit in. Li Ni is independent, strong willed, and has quite a temper and rage inside growing up that he did not know how to manage. His brothers caused him so many problems that he became the black sheep, rejected by everyone in the palace; and it permanently damaged his relationship with his father. His father is a weak, simple-minded, not smart, very flawed man with no understanding of the world, who lived a pampered, luxurious, sheltered life, and he was never meant to achieve anything or do anything in life other than live out his pampered existence. This is why he was such a pathetic emperor; he was never trained to be anything, least of all an emperor. He had no parenting skills and was a very bad father to all his sons. How can such a man understand an exceptional son like Li Ni? The father and son were estranged since Li Ni left at 13 to join the army. The father still has the same distrust and negative impressions of Li Ni as an adult and still treated him same. No matter what he does, he always views him as that rebellious hot temper kid causing trouble. It is sad to see such a pathetic man as a father and ruined his sons. Luckily Li Ni was fortunate to go to the border and find Bao and the Bandits. Bao was everything to LI Ni, taught him everything. Bao was a very soft kind-hearted man who was very astute and understood people really well. He took LI NI under his wings, helped him to channel that hot temper and rage, and become the man he is.

This movie is not real life so there can be a sweet reconciliation between father and son. In real-life, these reconciliations are not easily attained. It's very difficult to overcome.

Li Ni seemed to have a few women in his life who loved him, his nanny, his brother's mother, his older brother's wife. It makes sense that Li Ni fell in love and loved Cui Lin so much, he do anything for her, and wanted a loving family of his own.

well OK but you sounded so distress with words like "annoying me", "getting on my nerves", "boring", "unbearable to watch", and "find strength to finish", I felt really bad for you. Is that healthy? Sorry i misunderstood you.

Your mental health is more important than finishing a movie that upsets you. There is no need to force yourself. Romance movies often explore emotional themes while other romance movies may focus more on action or adventure. Perhaps the complex, multi-faceted, and nuanced emotional themes in WOL do not appeal to you. It's okay not to like a particular movie.
