Trash
I have no words left. Worst adaptation ever wait, no it’s not even close to an adaptation. It’s just a trash ugh. When the live action first was announced, I was so happy but the moment I saw the cast I lost the spark in my eyes it was DISASTER worse than my life tbh. I hoped atleast the plot would stay same but they changed everything. It just keep getting worse and worse. It’s completely different movie not our ORV.Please don’t waste your time watching it. Read the novel and manhwa. I genuinely hope this movie flops and disappears into the thin air. If you watch this movie this will be the worst experience ever in your life. Sorry my English is not good. Thank you!!

trash live action that no one wanted
i hope this shit will flop so hard that that misogynist director won’t have any reason to make up another shitty movie sequel.from the moment they prioritize casting famous actors i knew this movie is set to flop, cause that has to be the worst casting i’ve ever seen. only redeeming casting here is nana as heewon and the actress that acted sangha, which is such a waste bc they decided to be misogynist towards the female characters of this movie.
i fucking hate everything about this live action because first, the original author of the novel doesn’t even approved of this movie as naver (a misogynist company ofc) was the one who decided this masterpiece needed a live action no one even asked for. second, as i stated before, the fucking casting. besides the things i’ve said beforehand, the actor who is acting as dokja doesn’t even know the character he’s acting. the disrespect towards the original medium is loud and they consider themselves artists?? and that leads us to the third fucking reason, everyone in the production literally just disrespected the original source as well as the cultures written in it. they fucking changed everything that i can’t hardly call this my orv, atp they should just change everything from the title to the characters bc this is NOT MY ORV. they should’ve taken the netflix adaptation of kakegurui, it’s INSPIRED but not necessarily the og medium.
i have a lot more to say honestly but i’m just getting irritated again so i’ll leave it at that.
READ THE WEBTOON OR WEBNOVEL INSTEAD OF WASTING YOUR MONEY AND WATCHING THIS SHIT.

DISAPPOINTMENT
You don't even need to watch it, if you want to see a masterpiece, read the manhwa or novel. People who watch and like it are either bots or viewers who have no knowledge of the real story, so I don't think there is a single person who knows the novel and manhwa and will like this series. The biggest reasons for this series' success will be the wrong actors and the wrong interventions made in the scenario.Was this review helpful to you?
THE DISRESPECT
disrespect to the original source, to the fandom, and to the story.KIM DOKJA WOULD NEVER SAY THAT HIS FAVORITE NOVEL IS THE WORST!
they changed so much about the story and weapons. this can't be called an adaptation, this is the director's not-so-fan fiction. we can't (fans) even describe how disappointed we are. if only we can rate it to -1000000/10.

Quality movie that was underrated
This movie...very complicated emotions. Every single time, I have the urge to rewatch...will have to hold it off as it riles many deep emotions and thoughts. Talking about the movie, perhaps I would like to speak some justice on the overall plot & direction. As a fan of Wong Kar Wai's film (Wong Kar Wai, multiple award winning director including Cannes), I am surprised by the maturity of Thai movies these days. Though many critic the different version/releases of the movie, I find the Netflix version to be really good.I love that this movie explore the loneliness in the vast world, from the start of the movie, it explores each individuality of the character, and how it weaves together that lingering emotions for love. It also tells you that time is not a straight line, but it is emotional, fragmented by memories and immersive.
I also love that the movie explores feeling over storytelling, makes you feel like floating inside a dream or a memory of the character. I have to applaud the cinematic visuals - absolutely breathtaking. From the present world to World War scene, to space scenes and wonderful Phang Nga, the costumes in every different time, the soundtracks...truly amazing!
Lastly, I love the more quiet approach of this movie, the silence, the longing, the chemistry between the characters - intimacy is subtle, much is unsaid, but the feel of longing and love even though being isolated leaves a mark deep in our hearts.
This movie will always be in the list along with some of the greats like In the mood for love, The last emperor, Schindlers List and many more...and while I still tear up every single time watching, I can't wait to see more Thai movies of this kind, and Freen & Becky's growth in their acting career!

it sucks
read the original novel or even the webtoon. don't watch this shit. make it flop let the director suffer for even trying to ruin it for the people who love orv.dokja is a victim of bullying and violence and yet they painted him as a bully and a fucking murderer? seriously? if you didnt have time to read the novel then you should've just not made the damn movie. why is gilyoung a fucking toddler? why is jihye a grown as woman? why do they have guns? removing the abuse dokja faced, the pain he has suffered through just to cater to incels. removing SA faced by heewon, domestic violence faced by dokja and his mother and the whole coin farming part really tells us about your misogynist mindset. take this la and shove it up your ass you misogynist motherfucker.

Absolute garbage. go read the novel instead.
when i heard there was a live action of ORV, i was definitely interested. i had high hopes for it since ORV the novel and the adapted manhwa were both beautiful and i loved them both. However, after learning more about this live action, to say i'm disappointed is a huge understatement. What do you mean Dokja hated TWSA? it saved his life. What do you mean Yoo Sangah is a healer? she was put back in the misogynistic stereotypes she fought so hard against and that entirely ruins her character. What do you mean Dokjas favorite TWSA character was jung heewon? Jung heewon didnt even appear in the original TWSA. Yoo joonghyuk, who plays an incredibly major role in ORV, has been reduced to a more supporting character in this trash live action. dont watch it, i would never recommend it and for it to even share a name with ORV is practically a disgrace to the original omniscient readers viewpoint. if you're interested in the story, i'd highly suggest reading the light novel online, purchasing it in stores, or reading the manhwa adaption on Webtoon or something of the like. either way, it's far better than this terrible live action.Was this review helpful to you?
PP and billkin have done it again!
I dont typically leave many reviews but after the subs for this movie came out I was super excited to watch! I was 100% impressed with the acting, story, and production (not to mention the OST's are great!) bilikin and pp have sooo much chem already and even though this is technically not a BL they still managed to woo me over. I think I enjoyed this version more than the original but anyone who watches this should also watch the original as well!Was this review helpful to you?
novel andhad changed me this is what I have to say…NOT WORTH YOUR TIME.
If you had to describe this so called ‘adaptation’ it’d be disgrace, a joke, and ew. Everything had changed and it’s still being called an adaptation? Did the original source came from the copy ver of TWSA?? lol. Huge disrespect to fans world wide don’t watch it unless you wanna make fun and laugh trust me if they changed whatever they wanted, they would change everything but since this is a fan need, they had to do this? Which is far more worse I rather have not a live action from whoever directed this lol.Was this review helpful to you?

Nice face, but the story line is very unreasonable
It's a good movie, really. It's really good, but the execution is so lacking and doesn't make much sense.You will really hate Ahn Hyo Seop here and will frown when you see Jisoo.
If we look back, All Of Us Are Dead is a masterpiece, but when we look at the main characters in All Of Us Are Dead, we will be annoyed in the first episode with their slow and naive characters. That's Ahn Hyo Seop here. He is the one who knows the whole story, yet he moves very stupidly and slowly. I would say Ahn Hyo Seop here, since Dokja is a character who is alert and can read the situation.
Here we can get the greatness of Nana and Lee Minho, surprisingly. I think Lee Minho is the only character who can adapt to his acting.
I would say the most bizarre and unreasonable character is Jisoo. Because he's a schoolboy, he adapts too quickly to situations. I even noticed that without any explanation of his skills or how to use them.
I won't lie if the movie is good, but it doesn't deserve a score higher than 5. Because instead of being cool, all the characters are very burdensome except for Nana and Lee Minho. Rather than a very lovable character, Ahn Hyo Seop here is a character worth hating. Especially after he brought Lee Minho to life in a very unreasonable way.

Can we pretend that the adaptation never happened?
the audacity to even RELEASE the movie.But it's actually not that bad, it can actually be a great movie if they changed the characters' names, and the setting, and the storyline, and the script, the WHOLE plot tho
You could've at least styled Yoo Junhyuk's hair..
And why did you made Lee Sangah a healer if such a character is already present in the story itself? It's a kind of stereotypical misogyny she spent her whole life fighting against, duh

Utterly disrespectful to the original work
The worst cinematography and acting just added to the ruin the director/actors created by mischaracterising the complex characters by their misogynist and heteronormative/homophobic agenda. Heavily disrespectful to the complex world design, nuances and twists which made the best fantasy and psychological novel. EVERYONE , OMNISCIENT "READER'S" VIEWPOINT must only be read.Was this review helpful to you?

ONE OF THE WORST ADAPTATIONS OUT THERE
This LA was made by stripping away the soul, message, complexity, themes and symbolism of the beloved Novel ORVIt's sooo bad! As an adaptation it has so no similarities to the story expect for the names of the character and a little bit of power system, the characters are absolutely butchered!!
Goated KDJ's character, traits, skills and backstory is ineptly adapted, made him a saint, a fccking saint?? When he's clearly a morally grey character
Orvla kdj is stupid, idiotic, impulsive and perpetrator who indirectly caused someone's demise, hes all panicking before YJH and in 1st scenario like be frr reading a novel for 10yrs and u didnt think of it before? Where is his calmness, smart, calculative, strategic thinking? His snarky and annoying traits? His quick thinking?
YJH doesnt even feel like protagonist, him using guns is sooo dumb he's regressed multiple times so ofc he would know guns are useless, why does he have multiple swords? Why is his screentime less?
Ysh is a healer why? In novel YSH is kind but ruthless when wanted, understanding but can be dangerous, she is empathetic, has high emotional intelligence, has good ppl and managing skills, is veryy smart! Highly intelligent, a hardworker, knows multiple languages, has historical knowledge,
Ntm Making her a healer through adriadne's web is sooo unnecessary, she is not lee seolhwa!!
Jhw has two daggers?? Even tho she knows kendo and has sword in novel? Why remove the implied S.A. scene in movie? Afraid to piss off Korean men? Srsly? Also made Kim Dokja's mom Lee Sookyung a widow? Instead a women who is a survivor of domestic abuse?
We can see who this movie is made for
Jihye, well im tired of complaining bout the drastic changes made to her character w her not being her bratty self, having a gun when she should be having a sword with Yi Sunshin as her constellation, speciality in sea/ocean battles omfg.... i just cant
Not a single character done good in this la, even Lee hyunsung, Lee gilyoung, Gong pildu, cheon inho have flaws and dont make sense with the novel
Even as a movie, this is so bad, cuz orvla kdj's personality doesnt make sense, dumb director is trying to potray him as saviour of world? As a saint but wasnt he the one to indirectly cause the demise of other kid?
The CGI is cheap cuz the budget was spent on the actors
Promoting this LA which is unfortunately an adaptation of a beloved novel ORV whose themes are clearly against AI and Capitalism - it was a turn off for the fandom is who very much against the use of AI
Other themes of LOVE is also potrayed with flaws, the relationship between Tls123 and Kim Dokja is ruined, Kim dokja and Yoo joonghyuk dont have kuch chemistry and screentime together
The love kim dokja has for twsa is also ruined by this good for nothing LA
HE LOVES TWSA! Why would he say the novel is worst to tls123?
WHERE THE HELL IS HAN SOOYOUNG good thing she isnt here, her character would be butchered too
Another theme being feminism, well ofc SK would be pissed off with this theme haha
YSH being burdened with her family telling her to marry, her being the target of sexual assault in the male dominated workplace, ended up giving her the "healer" skill which is usually given to wome cuz they cant apparently be intelligent and use weapons and more skillfull than a man
Jung heewon almost being graped, they erased it
And how dare jihye receive the blessings of yi sunshin a historical figure??? A teen girl, a girl! receiving his stigma? And use swords? Ofc they removed it Haha
Lee sookyung not being a survivor of domesic abuse but being a widow says a lot
