The makeup artists, editing, and cgi could have been better but the producers probably just needed more resources to work with in this series. So the production of The Taoism Grandmaster seemed low to moderate budget.

Acting ranged from poor to good for most of the cast. There were some exceptions that gave very good to excellent performances. Xu Hao (Liuli) gave an outstanding performance. I think she is very talented and underrated as an actress.

The story was entertaining and i binged watched it fairly quickly. I think it was good but there were aspects that could have had been improved on. I didnt like the male lead character some of the time especially his attitude and treatment of Liuli during their interactions throughout much of the series.

I don't really remember the soundtrack other than the opening song.

Although there were many imperfections in this series i was more entertained by it than some other series i have recently watched. So i think it had good entertainment value. However, the last several episodes were not a good way to finish a series or story imo. The final episode alone would need to be completely reworked to not be awful.

Overall this is an okay series and worth watching. Unfortunately some of the issues i've mentioned held down the overall rating.

I doubt i will ever fully rewatch it but i think there may be others happy to do so.

Promised a supposedly a good adventure but..

This is an awful waste of time. I watched this because the actors looks good on screen and the premise of the show looks like a really good adventure.

Most episodes were draggy, I almost dropped the show multiple times. The effects used were not that good, considering that this was released only a few years back.

All those challenges, all those deaths, all that, for that mediocre ending.. I honestly mourn for all those deaths. With shows this long, there should at least have a happy ending to make all the death and sacrifices worth it..

Would I recommend the show? Maybe not. Would I consider a re-watch? Definitely never..
