The Butterfly

Preach sister! So happy you finished it. Good job! ❤

No problem. Sorry again that I was so late in responding. If you watch it I hope you enjoy it. :)

Sorry I'm late in responding. It's been awhile since I watched it. Seems like it was 2/3 or 3/4's of the way through. It's built around him thinking that Eun Chan is a boy and how his feelings develop and how he fights those feelings. That's the biggest conflict at first. And then the conflict once he finds out the truth.

Almost documentary in nature the performances are so natural and relaxed. Definitely worth a try.

Happy to see Michelle Yeoh taking care of business in this. Entertaining movie. :)

Sometimes they pull it off and sometimes I pretend the characters they are playing are older as in TROP. Two actresses who really need to accept that they are grown ass women are Tiffany Tang and Park Min Young. Tiffany is 36 and still trying to play teenagers, no amount of bright pink lipstick or high pitched voice is going to convince me. PMY trying to play a character younger than actors 7-12 years younger than her IRL pulled me out of the story constantly in When the Weather is Fine (not even going to talk about those painful flashbacks). I agree some older actors can bring depth to a younger character but perhaps the answer is allowing for stories that focus on older characters. 30-40 year olds have hopes, dreams, and needs for romance as well but too often, especially for women, they are seen as odd if still unmarried or looking for a meaningful life. Just glancing at the feeds and drama pages is enough to tell me a lot of people don't really care if their favorite young actor can act or not as long as he is pretty doing it.

Fun, maybe overly posed kung fu movie. I liked the different styles portrayed and each of the main characters had some character development at least for a kung fu movie. ;)

Lo Lieh! Entertaining 90 minutes of sword-fights and story. :)

Mother got away with it. Kids suffered. System let the kids down and ultimately the grandparents. Dang. That was brutal.

Not bad. Billy is fun to watch. Prime had this rated R but there was no blood, boobs, or F-bombs or even death so I think that rating was incorrect.

Serious Brucesploitation, but a lot of good fights.

I've started having fun with it. I may or may not keep it this way, but if butterflies are in it, I'm adding as I watch. :)

That let me know he’s EVIL. I’m watching it right now too.

This is the bonkers kung fu movie where the ninjas attack wearing roller skates! Warning! There is an explicit sex scene thrown in inexplicably in the middle of this movie.

Very nice article. I've seen Neko Samurai and Because It's My First Life. Such sweet white kitties. Thank you for taking the time to write this I enjoyed it. :)

If you've ever scene The Barbarian Brothers these two guys reminded me of them.

I like your list of actors!

One of my faves from kung fu movies. I couldn't enter Bloodsport but aside from Enter the Dragon that was his iconic role.

Fun. Very predictable. Good actors. Has a Leverage feel if the team was actually stealing for themselves. Funniest PPL ever in a scene.

Thank you for this article! My first Asian drama and first drama love was TMOPB. ❤ Since then I've watched a variety of Chinese dramas but I always come back to wuxia/Xianxia/fantasy. I love the wigs, swords, dresses, and amazing sets.

I'm not as crazy about modern Cdramas although I am going to watch You Are My Destiny now that it's finished more so for Xing Zhao Lin than a third go at that story. I'd still rather see him with a wig and sword. :)
