Interesting fast paced mini-show

Contains a small spoiler at the end of the review…..

This is a nice mini-show. The storyline is quite simple and the show is fast paced due to the short format.
Character wise:
FL is a strong witch who wants to help ML find a jade pendant and then become his wife. ML is a weak noble man who wants to find his family’s heirloom at any cost.
Acting wise this is pretty good given the hardship the actors face when acting within this limited time frame.
So, if you love a good fast paced mini-show - with an interesting storyline - this is actually worth watching.

SPOILER ALERT…….

Prepare for an ending that might not be totally satisfying for you if you are like me and love happy endings.

Underrated small in-game mini-show

This is a sweet and cute mini show with an interesting storyline. A small gem in my opinion. Despite the short format, it doesn’t feel rushed.
Character wise:
FL is a sweet and cute young woman who falls into a game. There she takes the identity of a female assassin from an enemy state who comes to marry the Prince. But getting to know her target, make her change her mission.
ML is a Prince and the assasination-target, and marriage partner, of FL. As he gets to know FL he realizes that she is not the spy he thought.
Acting wise this is pretty good. The actors do a very good job within the limited timeframe.
Well, if you love a fast paced, sweet and romantic mini show - with an interesting storyline - this is definitely well worth watching.

Silly mini-show with interesting storyline

This is a borderline silly mini-show. The storyline is interesting since it’s about 3 people from our time that somehow enters a play they are filming. In the alternate world they have acquired martial arts skills. Their only way of returning to real life again seems to be winning a competition and obtaining the legendary sword Si Yun.
Character wise we have this female actress (FL) who is a real badass and a male actor (ML) who is handsome but not that strong. Beside those two we have the female movie-investor (2FL) who is crazy about ML.
Acting wise this is not top shelf but the actors are sweet and try to pull off these comical characters. The exaggerated gestures and somewhat cringe acting lowers the rating a bit. I believe the directing is the reason it comes off as silly since I’ve seen the acting skills of some of the actors before.
Anyway, if you like something fast and funny - and don’t mind the silliness - this is an ok watch.

Cliché romantic mini-show with a bit of a confusing ending.

This is a nice mini-show. The storyline is quite cliché with the usual rich man/poor girl, fake marriage, forced marriage, parents meddling, pestering/evil rich girl, nice 2ML and so on. So nothing new here. As in many shows of this short format, there are some jumps in the story. With that said it is actually entertaining enough.
Character wise we have the usual characters. FL is kind but weak and ML is strong but under a lot of pressure. Their fake marriage turns into love but their surrounding keeps meddling and trying to separate them.
Acting wise this is actually rather good for a mini-show.
Anyway, if you like a nice mini-show with a somewhat (a bit confusing) happy ending, this is well worth watching.

Good reborn/revenge-plot with a solid storyline

This is a really nice reborn/revenge-plot story that might have a simple storyline but contains all the ingredients it needs.
Character wise:
The Second Prince is a ruthless and power hungry man that will stop at nothing (including eliminating his brothers) to become Crown Prince and later ascend the throne.
FL is the daughter of a powerful General and the obvious choice for the Second Prince to marry - and in her first life he does, since FL sacrifices her own happiness for her family.
The Emperor’s Nephew is a warm and caring man who grew up with and loves FL wholeheartedly. He will stop at nothing in order to protect FL - even at the cost of his own life.
Acting wise this is very good and the actors do a fantastic job with their characters.
Well, if you love a good reborn/revenge-plot with a solid storyline, this is definitely well worth watching.

Good season two of romantic crime solving mini-show

This is a great mini-show. The murder solving part is less dominant in this second season and the story of what happened 15 years ago is unraveled instead.
Character wise:
FL, who was fired at the end of season one finds out her secret identity and the reason behind her fathers unwillingness to let her marry ML.
ML works on uncovering the poison case he himself was involved with as a kid.
Acting wise this might not be top shelf but the actors do a very good job within the limited timeframe.
So, if you love a fast paced, romantic crime solving story - and don’t mind the cliffhanger ending - this is well worth watching.

Sweet mini-show about a Fox and a Prince

This is a sweet and adorable mini-show with a storyline surrounding a Fox and a Prince. Even if it is a simple story, we also get an epic love story between the two.
Character wise:
FL is a sweet and peppy Fox Demon who accidentally loses her inner force to Prince Hong Yi (ML). She needs to retrieve it before the first snow falls.
ML is a cunning Prince who plays a fool in order to uncover a conspiracy within the palace.
Acting wise this is not exactly top shelf but since most parts have a comical aspect, this is understandable. This couple often does these kinds of shows and I, personally, am always highly entertained.
So, if you want something fast, sweet and a little mysterious, this is definitely well worth watching.

Silly mini-show with intersting storyline

This is a funny mini-show as always with this couple. The storyline is quite interesting but the execution comes out a bit silly. Not unusual for this couple.
Character wise:
FL is a jinx that causes her husbands to die on the wedding day.
ML is a poisoned young Lord who actually needs a jinx in order to wake up from his coma.
Acting wise this is hard to rate since the production is aiming at silliness. I’ve seen other productions with this couple and know that they are actually not bad actors.
So, if you want something funny and sweet to pass the time - and don’t mind the silliness - this is a nice watch.

Sweet and funny mini-show with adorable ML

This is a nice little mini-show. The storyline isn’t exactly new but the characters are adorable and the storyline contains some exciting aspects.
Character wise:
FL is a dimension/time traveler from modern time who is strong and hotheaded. She meets ML and falls in love with him.
ML is a kind and rather naive man who believes in the best in people. That makes him a bad judge of character but a nice person.
Acting wise this isn’t top notch but the actors do a good job within the limited timeframe.
So, if you are looking for something light, funny and sweet - and don’t mind a cliffhanger ending - this is well worth watching.

Lighthearted yet hard-punching comedy

This is a nice and simple romantic comedy. It’s lighthearted and funny (even a bit silly at times). I liked the angle of the fathers setting up their kids so they could meet naturally and not by forcing a marriage onto them (which is actually the aim). That was refreshing.
Character wise:
FL is a smart and intelligent woman who grew up knowing her father would have liked her to be a boy. She is the sole heir of the family business.
ML is a smart, rough and temperamental young man who is the son of the current CEO in the family business but not the sole heir.
Acting wise this is pretty good and the main actors do a good job even if the story has a more comical aspect that doesn’t leave them that much room to shine.
Anyway, if you are into something light, funny and a little romantic, this is a nice watch.

Sweet and adorable no-brainer movie

This is a sweet and adorable movie. Even if there isn’t really anything new or different storyline and it is kind of similar to so many other same-themed movies/shows, it is entertaining and easy to watch-
Character wise:
FL is the usual sweet and airheaded woman who is indebted to ML because of certain circumstances.
ML is the usual cold and shrewd CEO who inserts himself in FLs life because she is different from other women he knows.
Acting wise this isn’t exactly top shelf but I guess the actors were directed to act their characters so they appear a little silly, especially FL and her bestie. That is often the case when they want to make a lighthearted movie/show.
Well, if you are looking for something short, sweet and angst-free, this is actually worth watching.

Nice low budget mini-show

This is a nice low budget mini-show. The storyline is interesting in there being a kid involved. Other than that, it’s quite cliché.
Character wise:
FL is somehow framed into spending the night with ML, resulting in a kid. She is a kind and sweet woman. ML is a cold CEO who ends up spending the night with FL even if he doesn’t want to. Seeing he has a child, he wants to spend time with him and thereby reconnects with FL. And so the story begins.
Acting wise this might not be top notch but it isn’t anywhere near bad. The actors do a good job within the limited timeframe.
Well, if you look for something simple and sweet, this is actually worth watching.

Nice but draggy dance-themed love story

This is an ok movie. The storyline is simple and revolves around a young man who falls in love with the dance instructor his female friend uses. The pace of the story is rather slow which makes it feel a bit draggy.
Character wise ML is carefree and outgoing. FL is a sweet girl who loves to dance.
Acting wise this is only mediocre. It doesn’t ruin anything but it goes to show that the movie is kind of low-budget.
So, if you have some time to spare and want a simple and sweet romantic movie, this is an ok watch.

Rushed fantasy movie with a hint of romance

This is an ok movie. The storyline is quite simple.
Character wise we have an immortal (ML) who is suspected of stealing the Magic Lotus Lantern when in fact he was trying to prevent an intruder in doing so. He then throws himself into reincarnation in the mortal world in order to get the lantern back. Here he meets and falls in love with FL who is a strong woman with superior martial art skills.
Acting wise this is not top notch. Focus is on telling the story but they are trying to put in more than there is time for, so it feels rushed.
Anyway, if you like the fantasy genre, this is an ok watch - just don’t expect too much from the romance.

Surprisingly good mini-show with an refreshing storyline

This is a surprisingly good mini-show. The storyline is kind of refreshing and rather entertaining. Even if it is a mini-show it doesn’t feel rushed and there are no inconsistencies or jumps in the story - only a few things left unexplained.
Character wise we have this FL who is stuck in a time-loop trying to avoid a fire that wipes out her puppet-troupe. Then we have ML who is actually the author who has created the book that both of them are in. The two of them have to work together in order to revive the puppet-troupe, investigate who caused the fire and in doing that, make it possible for ML to return to real life.
Acting wise these are some really good and experienced actors even if they are challenged a bit because of the short format. That causes the character to feel somewhat shallow. And in terms of chemistry between the leads, there is room for improvement as one could say. Not that it ruins the show but it affects the overall rating.
Anyway, if you like something fast with a mystery theme, this is actually well worth watching.
