DECENT FANTASY ROMANCE PERIOD MOVIE
I was looking for a horror movie and came across this and it's a habit of mine to dive in without knowing anything and since it was tagged as a horror movie I just dived in
What I got was a romantic fantasy period movie
Even if my watched list contains only A handful of Chinese period themed movies...I have always loved period Chinese movies more than any other genre from the industry
So this time too visually it was too beautiful with the setup frames and gorgeous costumes and all but the special effects even though over looks okayish did felt weak to mea at certain places
Had no issues with pacing as the movie is barely over 80mins
The plot is something we have all already seen many times before
But it was the acting cinematography and direction that saved me from boredom
The action scenes were also just watchable
The scores were decent and loved the end credit song?
Also the emotional scenes and tones were effective and I could empathize with the character
So overall its a good fantasy romantic period movie but just don't dive in thinking it's a horror movie...even if it has elements of the genre in it
