At first I was like "WTF?!".....
Okay so I watched this drama only because of Ian and I saw it on his list of films and I clicked it and saw no reviews or proper comments for this film. So i took it upon myself to watch it and give a review just incase anyone else comes across it and wants to watch it.First off its on youtube with subs so its available easily.
Okay so at first I thought what in the world am I watching? Lol it was weird at first I forced myself to continue in the begining. Even though its not a HUGE OF A DEAL movie I can say it was okay.
The main Dynasty of this drama was the qing hence the half shaved head and elaborate women hairstyles, then the female lead and her master seemed to be Han chinese so they dressed different and then some of the people in the village seem to be dressed like Ming dynasty (i think). Then it sort of had modern things in it too lol like showing peace signs, shades lol inventors.
It had a lot of different costumes going on but that didn't hurt the story lol
The monster costumes lmaooo they raided a teddybear factory but it was okay I liked how they were funny looking, most of the monsters were funny and had hearts and kind, not what people expected of them.
As the movie went on the plot sort of developed and in the end you saw clearly unexpected moments from the people you least expected.
I like the prince's family, they didn't show strict rules like you'd see in other imperial dramas, like the court and battle for the thrown. BS officials and shcolars nope it was about jokes, betrayal -ish, romance and stuff.
The emperor was funny too, loves his brother and sister even though the dowager is the true ruler she was a funny okay person too.
The music was quite mondern -ish you didn't get to hear those traditional tunes with a lot of flute and zither but it was okay.
Bottom line the relationships were good, I reccommend watching it if you happen to have a bowl of popcorn and you just want to watch something, extremely light, sort of funny but okay at the same time.
This won't stress you out, takes your mind off of those chaotic ones that has you hooked but stressed and depressed at the same time lol!
The ending would be explained as what people may say a bitter sweet moment.
Anyways guys you can watch it for yourself, it really was an okay film to watch.
Was this review helpful to you?
