The Fallen
This series has the end of the Condor Trilogy. I really can't recall the first two, which I watched when I was in my early teens and thought they were just the greatest Wuxia story ever told in our modern times. Jin Yong's finale of the trilogy was a great ending and rather a sad one too and frustrating as he told us how the young hero rose to prominence too early and how his strength began to ebb gradually into an emotional mess, be it being a leader or his love lives. I must admit I have skipped quite a few episodes as they were mere long dialogues, which doesn't work in series, a ploy perhaps to prolong the series to 50 episodes. Some scenes were totally unnecessary. If they had kept it down to perhaps 35 episodes it would have been bearable. The ending is neither a happy one nor a sad one, it's just the way it is. We can't have everything and we have to choose, in the end, whatever is left, you have to accept it. I feel sorry for Wuji, such a promising lad but too soft inside, to be a leader you have to be harsh and decisive to a point of being merciless, he didn't possess any of those qualities. Still overall a good story.Was this review helpful to you?
Movie :The kung fu cult master + Drama: The Romance of the Condor Heroes 2014
The production is quite good. Multiple location worthwhile CGI's etc but the story seems to be a light, long version of return of condors.I love the drama Return of Condor Heroes. Being a huge fan I was biased even before I started this series. So I cannot be a good judge of the drama and say it was good. It's good but not better or worse. The story is culmination of the jet li movie and 'The Romance of the Condor Heroes 2014'.
The cast were amazing & fight scenes were okay but what really stood out was that they matched the huge casting done in its predecessor. Nothing is lost in quantity or quality except the ML character felt like too 'goodie' (Not a spoiler).
At the beginning of the series they went really huge on different sets and loved the vastness of the series but later on that became a mild factor as the whole story was kind-of-draggy. None the less worth watching one time.

I watched 8 episodes of the series. I continue to watch. Liked it very much. Especially the emotionality in the 7th and 8th episodes impressed me a lot. The child's parents sacrificing their lives for the solution of a problem. This action, which was initiated by the man due to the fault of his wife, especially impressed me. On top of that, the loss of the child's parents, his emotionality and crying really made me cry. I couldn't hold back my tears. It was also nice that they met and smiled after they died. It was impressive. I recommend everyone to watch it. Was this review helpful to you?

Uma boa surpresa
Inicialmente não estava muito confiante que o drama me agradaria, mas queria ver por causa do ator Wang Deshun e, aos poucos, a história se mostra interessante, principalmente, pelo personagem Zhang Wuji, que é um garoto inteligente e de caráter bondoso. Depois de adulto a inteligencia desaparece, mas a bondade permanece como característica do personagem. O ator que interpreta Wuji é bom, mas os três garotos que dão vida ao personagem em criança/jovem são espetaculares. O roteiro é bem claro e não deixa pontas soltas. O elenco é bom e as atuações são bastante convincentes.A direção conduziu o drama com um ritmo satisfatório, produziu excelentes fotografias ( cenários muito bonitos), não cometeu erros que comprometam o drama na edição e finalizou de forma simples, mas bonita. O figurino é bonito e a trilha sonora agradável.
