What Was Its Point?
This is a prime example of how to turn a bad series into an even worse one by not knowing what your direction is. And we can see it slipping away because of the lack of perspective. If this series had some sort of direction, it could have been good. If they were going for comedy, they failed miserably. If they were going for some sort of mystery, it also bombed. However, in my opinion and why I think this series worked a little is that they (I think, or I hope) were going for a ‘tongue-and-cheek’ approach to humor. But never went far enough with what they were doing to make that work.Was this review helpful to you?
that dubbing tho....
While the plot and acting itself were mediocre-to-good, the dubbing voice made me drop the show 3 episodes in!! I only speak English but always choose to watch shows in the original language with subtitles. Usually this is because I find dubbing voices sound off. The audio trainwreck that was this show reached a whole new level of awful! It pulled me out of the show to the point where I just couldn't stand another episode. Hopefully the actors are able to find new work which allows them to move beyond this.Whoever chose and approved the dubbing should be fired ASAP.

don't waste your time on it
yes, I like the actors, but this was just a waste of time I watched it before going to sleep and it helped me sleep faster.there was no real story
bad acting with my respect
and the fact that they have a useless voice-over the acting is just so annoying
really not worth the time trust me

So Bad It's Good
PLEASE watch it!!! Its So good! I see every one giving it low ratings and saying it's so bad, but heres the thing, it's suppose to be! it's a comedy that was actually executed really well! The internal monologs KILLED me! It's ssooooo cringe though and made even me embarrassed to watch at some points! I know there are probably comments about the acting being bad but if you actually pay attention the acting is actually really good!If you need a comparison to understand why I'm saying it's actually really good then watch Dumb and Dumber, Nepoleon Dynamite, Tropic Thunder, Zoolander, ETC. those kinda of movies are so bad, on purpose, that they are good, just like this series! It's a type of comedy that may not be for everyone but it definitely does not make them bad movies or series!
Long Lee being so full of himself and some of his internal monologs were just RIDICULOUS! Honestly it's been about 10 minutes since I finished the series and I'm still cry laughing when I think of specific scenes. I hope this brings some clarity and understanding to the "bad" series.
i here for a season 2!

It's high camp. If that's not your taste that's fine
This series was Hi camp. It was over the top ridiculous. But in a hilarious way. I laughed so much. The voice over bothered me sometimes but at the same time it was hilarious. Sometimes the story went off the rails and really gave you a "huh" moment but still made you laugh. Do not take this show serious. And don't expect a whole bunch of romance. Just enjoy it for what it is. A good light-hearted funny seriesWas this review helpful to you?

A GEM RUINED BY STUPID VOICEOVER
I understand that maybe they want it to be comedic and funny voiceover is the option they choose but let me tell you... This series is already funny with it's own script and plot. WHY ARE THEY RUINING THEM BECAUSE OF STUPID VOICEOVER???!!! I was already suspicious why Frank's voice is different and the lips moves slightly delayed. I literally have to watch this series by muting them and using my precious imagination to imagine how Frank's voice sounds like and along with Long's voice. I AM SO DISSAPOINTED WITH THE VOICEOVER LIKE... WHAT IS THE NEED FOR THE DUBBING?????The plot goes with Luv have a key necklace and Thad have a lock necklace so they sort of feel like they are each other's soulmate and there's more than just a necklace for it. It seems like the house's wealth testament is related to the necklace which I found to be interesting and very well execute for 6 long episodes. TO BE HONEST, LONG'S ACITNG IS THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES ME FORGET ABOUT THE DUMB DUBBING. OH. MY.GOD. GIVE THIS MAN AN AWARD AND A GOOD SERIES PLS!!! His actions scenes are TO-DIE-FOR!!!! And to be honest I couldn't believe he is so good at acting comedic lol.
I don't know why but for LongFrank's series, there will always be something that pissed the audience off. This series is because of the dubbing and for Love Syndrome, its because of Frank's wig. BRUH. PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE THEM A LEGIT GOOD SERIES. I AM TIRED OF THIS SHIT!!! i hope OMG Vampire series would do them justice. :)
I know that other reviewers gave this series a low rating because of the dubbing but we gotta appreciate the plot and the cast. Like they are doing good fr.

So bad, it's good.
This show was weird. It kind of reminded me (though loosely) of Atashinchi no danshi. Basically he ends up living with three brothers that are all quirky and weird in their own way. Luv ends up living in their house under false pretenses searching for his destiny. And honestly it was a funny and wild ride. Like it was so ridiculous and nonsensical that it was good. It was so consistently over-the-top that it somehow worked.What didn't work was the dubbing. It was just too much. And it wasn't really done...well? Like the audio dubbing sounded kind off at times. As if the microphone died and they couldn't get a new one so just used like a phone. And there were times where it was hard to tell what was meant to be someone's thoughts versus what someone said out loud. Especially when the person's mouth didn't seem to be moving, but then it seemed like someone else responded to what they had "said". But it was hilarious to me in one of the fight scenes when one of the guy's was thinking "hya...hya..." as he was like hitting.
Because of how crazy some things were the plot not being super logical/consistent wasn't really too much of a detriment since it seemed like it really wasn't meant to be taken that seriously.

The worst BL ever made.
This show was not funny. It isn't unhinged just because everything about 'Crazy Handsome Rich' was terrifyingly bad. I have never written a review before, but people saying it's good need to stop misleading new watchers. Stop trying to raise the rating.The acting is NOT good, don't even try. Even if the voice acting part of the show wasn't dubbed, the series would still be terrible from start to finish.
[SPOILERS FROM HERE ON]
Firstly, directly at the end of episode 1, when the preview of the next episode starts, the one man says that he doesn't want to be a butler anymore. Immediately i knew the entire plot of the show, it's so expected.
Horribly written and i feel sorry for the actors. They were in Love syndrome, not exactly known for being good, and now in 'Crazy Handsome Rich' the worst BL ever. Worse than 'Check Out' the series
It's almost like the boss love interest guy (forgot his name) only hired butlers to fall in love with them, the butlers do almost nothing in this series.
Mention: The bells? The fortune teller. The mumbling? Made the show worse. I understand why the fortune teller was there, but no.
Do NOT watch this, please. 0.5/10

Not sure what I was explaining but it wasn't that. Also not even sure what made me add this to my watch list, but me and my past self need to have a talk. For such a short show, it feels like it lasted forever. Even on mute and FF. whoever watches this any other way deserves a award or a padded room. Lmao (jk)
I don't understand why they dubbed it the way they did! It's like the hella old Chinese movies and dramas. Lol.
And I know it's not that one actors fault, but they did they keep giving him under shots of his nose? 😩 It feels like he is the only one they did that to.
I still don't know what the storyline was. The actors deserved better than this mess though. I get it's a comedy, but then the comedy lies in how the show was produced, it's not a comedy. It's a joke. 😬

If 2 + 2 is 4...
and 5 + 5 is 10... then wtf is this?I stg. I'm normally in the minority of badly rated shows, I end up loving them, but my time has come to join the hate parade.
This gets a 1 star only bc of Long and Frank. JUSTICE FOR THESE MEN BC WTF WAS THIS SERIES?
The biggest sin of this show was that horrendous dubbing. I don't mind dubbing. I've watched plenty of dubbed shows, but this was TRASHOLA. The hmm, uhhhh, and hehehe's were so funny and not in a good way. Jail for whoever was responsible for this decision and editing. Jail.
By episode 3 I watched this muted so I could judge the show itself objectively without the horrendous dubbing tempting me to drop this show.
Unfortunately for me, the show still sucked. When we got to the big plot twist I was DYING laughing because it was so STUPID.
Also, where exactly was the romance????
If the show hadn't been dubbed its maybe a 3/10. With the dubbing it's a 1/10. Give these actors something better.
I'm so glad there are people who liked this though. At least this show wasn't a total waste.

Worst BL I've ever seen in my life
The text is horrible, full of flaws, completely implausible and childish.Filling the episodes with slow motion scenes and the characters' internal whispers and giggles are very irritating.
Using people with disabilities (episodes 5 and 6) and trans people to make jokes is a terrible thing in 2023.
I feel sorry for Frank and Long Lee, good actors in a bad series.
I gave one star out of pity for both of them.
Frank's character spends the entire story obeying all of his bosses' absurd orders (like being naked in front of them) as if he were a slave for the simple reason that he finds Long Lee's character hot, which in my opinion goes beyond fiction .
He spends his time looking for a necklace because a fortune teller psychic advised him to do so, even giving up his own family to do so, which proves to be extremely implausible.
What's more, this fortune teller hasn't changed her appearance at all over the decades, being exactly the same when she attended to Frank's character's mother when he was a child and then when he was an adult.
A story that conveys zero emotions, I started watching it for Long Lee and Frank, but it's a total waste of time.

I expected better ???
Let me be honest I was honestly disappointed in the series outcome not because of the plot or how they acted if I were to say smth about it, it was alright but what I was shocked about it was the poor voice overing. They basically were jumbling what they're thinking from what they're actually saying and that made me dropped it. And the series had full potential of being rated a 10/10 😭😭😭😭 and I was really looking forward to the main couple appearance in this bl. What a bummer😔😔😔Welp all I can say is I hope for the main couple to act in a better bl with no issues at all
But for persons who wants to watch it I wouldn't recommend you to watch it
