As many people who loved The Untamed will want to watch this, know that this is a Wen Ning centric movie. There is however a 10 sec clip with Wei Wuxian's back supporting Wen Ning to get out of the illusion he was put into! Regarding the story, I actually liked it! It wasn't awesome and something that I would re-watch though. I felt that the character of Wen Ning was very much changed from the prequel: where he was shy before, now he is confident. A huge change for me, at least. Story wise, the plot was ok, the characters were likable and the actress for a-Qing was stunning. I do have an issue with the chains of Wen Ning as there is no mention how he got them on!(yes, they make him powerful, but when The Untamed left, he was chain-free). Music wasn't very The Untamed though..It could have been much better!The CG action was ok, the same level as in the prequel. All in all, to be honest, the movie was better than some other high-budget movies that China makes!( but that might be because The Untamed presented already the characters and their background). I recommend fans of MDZS/The Untamed to watch it, but not to have much expectations as the movie it's only a "night hunt" of Wen Ning and Sizhui, unrelated to the other characters of The Untamed. (just a rant of mine: I did hope for some bonding between cousin and nephew, but yeah...got nothing!:))
