Pizzabox with only half of pizza inside
I am not big fan of Chinese fantasy series because the special effects cheapen the entire production. In Fangs of Fortune however everything is done with the right amount and the special effects look really great. The entire soundtrack was unique and especially the end music with the fangs dance looked amazing. Costumes and the entire production looked expensive with so much details. Each of the characters had unique style and interesting background story.Fangs of fortune delivered however some chaotic main story progression, 2-3 episodes were linked together but then unrelated to the next bundle of episodes which revealed different plot. They tried to create somehow of a mix between romantic, spooky, comedic, dramatic moment. The comedic moments looked quite cringe, the dramatic moments had a lot of beautiful fake crying ( all actors cried same way with cosmetic tear drops). Also all the actors were beautiful, but I could not tell if they were actually good at their job because the poor script.

Mixed feelings
I don't know how to feel about this Tv Serie. It started really good, story looked interesting but once the main leads decided to work in team and fall in love everything became extremely boring. I would have enjoyed it if f this was the first epoch drama, but with so many masterpiece productions "princess Royal" falls short.Was this review helpful to you?

Good but not great
This is rich production with great costumes, so you definitely enjoy it. The story however is too predictable and somehow illogical. I find it strange that they're siblings until episode 32 and then lovebird for the last 8 episodes. Would have been much better if Luo Yi Ning could have remedy her broken love relationship with the Lu Jia Xue instead going for the more predictable path. All actors did amazing job, but for me the discovery was Lu Jia Xue. What an amazing actor with such diverse range of skills.Was this review helpful to you?
Title should have been "Love of Sadness"
Love of Nirvana is one of my most favorite Chinese dramas. Ren Jia Lun is flawless in his acting and such pleasure for the eye. I loved the story progression, some people were disappointed by the sad ending but this is what makes this TV Series so good. There is no victory without sacrifice. Costumes and music were great, the story pasing was right with different locations and nice side characters.Was this review helpful to you?
Great Chinese Epoch drama
Story of Kunning Palace is probably one of the best Chinese dramas I've ever seen. I keeps the ancient vibe of the time, fighting scenes were done in a great way without overdoing it. Characters were introduced and developed in such a great way that the story hooks you from episode one until the very end.Was this review helpful to you?
