If you're expecting "Oh look! A zombie! KILL IT! OMNOMNOM" for an hour and a half then this may not be your cup of tea.
This film is a collection of different stories ranging from the beginning of the "infection" to the world after a cure is found and zombies have had the effects reversed.
It's very different from your traditional zombie movie in a sense that it doesn't just focus on the mindless beasts that eat everything and the buff guys that appear to shoot them - it focuses on the relationships, the philosophical and ethical aspects of zombiedom and post zombiedom.
A few things could've been developed a bit more, but overall it was a very satisfying watch.

Midnight's Girl - Garota da Meia-Noite

There was nothing that took you by surprise so I don't think it's re watch value is very high. That said I really enjoyed it while it lasted.
The episodes only last 15mins as it is a Web drama and there are only 8 of them. So if you are looking for a filler while you wait for your hair dye to take, or if you are sat waiting for the bus then this is the drama for you.
Happy Viewing

By the way,i also plan to watch the 2008 version of "Ngao Asoke" starring Pong and Peung and will probably skip the 2016 version starring Sean and Eshter,not many people enjoyed it as much.
Ekarat Sarasuk plays as the good-natured and noble rich heir Monthai who thinks that his heroine the gentle angel-alike beauty Beechat (played by Ae Isariya Saisanan) is a gold-digging impostor of his girlfriends who he haven`t seen for 8 years since his depart to Australia.What he doesn`t know is that Beechat is the real woman who wrote him all the letters of love over all these years.Even not knowing this...he still can`t resist his heart that pulls him towards her.

Surprisingly entertaining short web drama
Completed - 4/15/2022MangoTV has been churning out these short web dramas that are surprisingly entertaining. I am not sure why this drama is called "The Killer is Also Romantic" as the Chinese title is the combination of the leads names, Nian Nian Wu Ming. It could be loosely translated as Missing/Thinking of Wu Ming.
In a little over 3 hours, this drama is able to tell a funny and interesting story about a couple who each has a hidden identity. The fun is when each of the leads tries to hide their real identity and personality, and of course, we want to find out what happens when the secrets are out. As another reviewer said, it's like the Chinese historical version of Mr & Mrs Smith. Coming into this, I have pretty low expectations, just like the other MangoTV drama "Emperor or Boss", which has the same male lead, Yang Ze. The plot is simple, but the chemistry and acting are decent. For a low budget web drama, I am pleased to see that nothing seems cheap. There is no annoying character, two smart and capable leads and we got some decent kisses (and many almost kisses).
If you need a palate cleanser from a serious drama and got a few hours to kill, this is perfect.

Sometimes, a happy couple not always ending as a happy marriage. All of kindness in relationship can change when someone play with heart. When you cheat at your spouse, everythings never be the same.
but don'tt worry, there's a rainbow after the rain :)
Overall... I love this movie. Worth to watch.

Best Wuxia movie I've watched this year!
Idk what the reviewers are talking about. I got hooked by this movie because of trailers. Hollywood made a ton of shitty trailers, DONT FOLLOW THEM! Anyhoo, I admit the martial arts in this movie were a bit flashy, ppl flying off a horse, lots of jumping and flying kick...... BUT THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT SO GOOD. The cinematic fight scenes did help to make you glued to the screen. While they make the plot so simple : guarding an important figure to chang'an but giving the backstory of the MC and his enemies. Also HOW IS NIC TSE STILL LOOK THE SAME LIKE 20 YEARS AGO? HE'S 52! costume wise, it's in a desert, so the tone is earthy colour. There's one scene remind me of Mad Max lol. Overall if you're looking for a wuxia movie, you can try this one.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Yui and Abe’s acting skills are impeccable and the way they play off each other is captivating! Actually, everyone was really great, such natural and organic scenes which were composed mostly of dialog, GREAT dialog which grew and simmered like real conversations… so realistic, at times if seemed like I was watching a hidden camera video recording of some family’s life!
Watching this has really reinforced my Yui Natsukawa love, man…she was so doggone pretty and delicate in this one, not at all like the tough realist Natsumi Hayakawa (her character in Kekkon Dekinai Otoko), but both really great characters. And of course, no matter who she plays, her characters always have those signature dimples, and in fact, there's a scene where Mother (played excellently by the awesome Kiki Kirin) even comments, "Oh, you have cute dimples!" LOLOL
PS. Was really cool to realize the line “Aruitemo, Aruitemo” used as the title of this movie came from none other than the immensely gorgeous Japan chanteuse Ayumi Ishida’s song “Blue Light Yokohama”, how cool is THAT!!!

First and foremost, this production is well-made, well-cast and well-acted. The leads are capable and play their roles with class and conviction. The villains, oh my, they made me grit my teeth and ball my fists throughout three-quarters of the show but it’s all thanks to the brilliance of Wu You as the contemptible Wu Xin and her dorky, shameless mother, Wang Ai Yu. The duo gets away with witchery, spinning lies over the course of 17 years.
Amidst this human sorcery, life goes on blissfully for Zhang Guo Guo, growing up not knowing her fate as the heiress to an esteemed embroidery powerhouse. But truth and destiny will prevail as the power of the plot and amazing acting tie every event together in a journey worth our patience.
Very much a melodrama, with all the angst and tears you’d expect from this genre, Guo Guo and Yun Kai’s sweet and uncomplicated love for each other is secondary only to the main storyline— Guo Guo returning to her roots. Also entwined in all the sub-plots is the enduring message of maternal and paternal love - biological or adoptive, it can be likewise powerful or destructive.
Stellar, stellar cast including little Le Tong. What an ensemble of perfection. Well worth the angst!

Chinese Restaurant 9— A Season to Remember
Chinese Restaurant 9 truly felt like a warm family this season, and each member shined in their own way 💫Huang Xiaoming led the team with calm strength, always carrying the weight of responsibility yet never forgetting to care for everyone like a true leader. Jiang Yan was the gentle “mom” of the group her cooking filled the restaurant with comfort, and her kindness wrapped around everyone like home.
Ding Yuxi “Bridge King,” wasn’t just a sous chef , he was like the caring big brother of the group. He looked after everyone, always stepping in to help no matter the task, and his support made the whole team feel stronger. And then there was Shen Yue 💖 the bright soul of CR9. She wasn’t just the finance manager or photographer, she was the sunshine of the group. With her warmth, sincerity, and quiet determination, she made every moment feel genuine and full of life.
Zhai Xiaowen::" brought youthful charm and endless creativity (his zucchini creation will never be forgotten!), while Patrick Yin amazed with his multilingual talents, always connecting with guests and making them feel welcome. And finally, Lin Shuwei, the wise teacher-chef, guided the kitchen with patience and experience, ensuring every dish carried both flavor and heart.
And I really loved the cutest banter between Shen Yue and Zhai Xiaowen their bond was the best part of this season, always bringing smiles and laughter💛
Together, they weren’t just a team they became a family. Their laughter, teamwork, and care for one another made this season unforgettable. I’ll truly miss their interactions, but I’ll always treasure the warmth they shared. Wishing every member of the CR9 family endless success and happiness in their journeys ahead 🍴🥢🍲🍜☺️

So good to sooo choppy and messy.
I really did like this drama up until the middle of it. It started just going all over the place and cut scenes left and right, it could have been much better. It had the potential and actors. Still love the cast but they got played dirty with this one. But that's just me, if you watch it and like it, awesome! I am finishing it anyways, but I'm not expecting much of the ending whatsoever.Let's hope our leads gets better dramas than this...

sweet & charming innocence
the story feels like a prequel to a love story but it does so in a cute and charming way. went into this not sure what to expect due to such a wildly mixed bag of opinions, but I found myself laughing a lot throughout the episodes. loved seeing winny and satang in this too, they both added so much to the already great story. in fact, the supporting cast were all amazing, this felt really well in terms of their performance together.this is lighthearted, with a great representation of fearful, timid, yet entirely sweet dancing around with the idea of confessing. thoroughly enjoyed all of this.
my only subtraction to my score is having to see joong be so serious for most of this. would’ve loved to see him act cutely more lol

Anyway, there is no question as to how well KMM portrayed his role. I feel bad though that "Jeon Ji Won's "(JYH) character was not completely fleshed out. I enjoyed listening to the two arguing in court, not for the content but for their voices.
I may re-watch, perhaps, just to try and understand what al the talk was about.
This is not a drama for everyone unless you are KMM fan.

Addictive murder mystery period drama with complex characters
This show had me hooked from the beginning! It had so many of my favorite TV elements: a slow reveal of characters' complex backstories, a murder mystery, glamorous period costumes, and a variety of badass female characters. Also, compared to Taiwan's normal campy, cutesy TV fare (which I do love, to be clear), Light the Night is a huge step up in production quality and story.The show revolves around Rose and Sue, two best friends and house mothers of a 1980s Taipei nightclub. As the episodes unfold, we learn about each of the supporting characters and the drama leading up to the pilot episode's murder. We don't learn the murder victim's identity until the very end, setting us up for Season 2 to investigate the murderer's identity.
I would highly recommend watching this show not just once but multiple times; it's definitely the type of show where you'll pick up subtle details during a rewatch. An artfully crafted story, superbly acted, scored, and production designed, I can't wait for Season 2!

1Well-meaning but not always well-executed
As someone who adored the film adaptation and has gone back to it again and again and again, this was pretty darn faithful, showing how one meaningful connection can expand someone's world and how all you really need is one person to see and understand you, just one.I liked how this Taichi showed more of an interest in Kohei right off the bat, which led to some lovely, thoughtful moments. And Kohei was more forward with his feelings in his own way. However, over time, I did begin to feel like the drama was dragging its feet. By making Taichi more attached to Koehi but also more dense, there was this constant circling around his feelings. And while I, of course, was happy to see them explore hearing loss and the different perspectives and struggles of people who are deaf/hard of hearing, I think it took away valuable time that could have been spent with Taichi and Kohei. While they focused on Taichi's passion for making a better world/helping others, Kohei ended up taking a backseat. Some later episodes had barely any scenes of Taichi and Kohei together, let alone from Kohei's point of view.
The ending also didn't quite sit right. While it did its job and was sweet, it felt rushed and lacking.
I think this drama wanted to be bigger than it was and lost itself a bit.
I wasn't disappointed, per se; I just think they could have done more.

Breath of Fresh Air, Mature Romance, but lacking a bit in memorability
Refreshing, mellow, and mature. A very comfortable watch, celebrating the small moments and the simplicity of falling in love with the right person. No villains. No huge misunderstanding/lack of communication. No beating around the bush. Very much a breath of fresh air.However, the one thing that keeps it from being 10 stars in my mind is the lack of memorable impactful moments that stick in your mind and make you want to replay the scene over again after you finish. This film didn't have any of that.
Still, rewatch value is high for when you just want something cozy to cuddle up with.
