Am I crazy or was this actually good?
I am a huge RAMPAGE fan, but I generally don't go into the members' acting projects expecting ~actual cinema~ because the majority of the time they aren't. Similarly, I went into this fully anticipating to turn my brain off and just marvel at the novelty of having Kazuma, Riku, and Hokuto in one project together, so imagine my surprise when I actually got invested in each of the stories, brain on and all!Maybe I was predisposed to like this because I enjoy a good omnibus, but I found the atmosphere of this movie super immersive and I appreciated how there wasn't too much set-up or exposition - we're kind of tossed in the middle of everything and the characters are just able to exist and reveal parts of themselves in natural ways. It was a little grungy and cinematic, but in a way that wasn't overly pretentious. And while I watched this for my boys and their performances were great, it was the actresses who really brought things together. It's honestly hard to choose which of the three segments was my favorite, but I'm a bit partial to the one with Kazuma because of my mother Sakai Maki featuring in it!!
It's not doing anything particularly new or deep, but it still resonated with me and stands as proof that even projects full of idols in their cast can hold their own sometimes. Highly recommend if you're a RAMPAGE fan like me and even if you aren't!

Great Music
Glass Heart is the journey of a band as its members grow in artistry and sense of self. Music is integral to how the members learn to appreciate their differences as they pursue the common goal of creating meaningful music together. The actors fully commit to their roles and convincingly portray musicians, bringing enough aspiration and inspiration to fill the series with heart and joy.Was this review helpful to you?

Nostalgic at best
Beginning was a bit difficult to watch since it took so long to build up the plot, but with IU's solid acting it was a solid hit by ep 3.Cried my eyes out on almost all episodes and will recommend to others.
Decided to travel to Jeju after watching this to go swimming in the sea
Does anyone know if its available elsewhere other than Netflix?

Chen Si could Act next to a Potato and make it shine
This is a Republican era retelling of the Guo Fen Ye storyline. What sets it apart is the spicy spice chemistry between the leads: Chen Si and Liu Xi Yu. Im not discounting the FL but I'm pretty sure Chen Si could make a drama where the other lead was a potato and still make it amazing. I also liked the portrayal of the brothers ex-fiance and the god-mother. In most of the other versions I felt their characters were too, two dimensional and served no other purpose other than to drive the plot. While I understand it needs a certain aspect of that because its a short and a vertical drama, i feel the characters didn't get justice or their time to shine. It was nice seeing that glimmer here. Overall, it was done very well although I would have liked more progression and development of their relationship but hey... it's a short. It needs to be... short.Was this review helpful to you?
Cool fight scenes
Very cool swordplay choreography and engaging political intrigue. I will always love a fight-to-the-death survival genre, and the production quality and set design are really goodI do think, however, that this didn't turn out to be as interesting as I hoped? There are a LOT of characters, some of which I cared more about than others, and even though there are only 6 episodes, the pacing actually feels pretty slow; between fight scenes there's some long conversations and aimless walking to the next place.
I'll still be tuning into season 2 though, and I hope we have a big confrontation and more political mystery.

Elite bromance that carries a silly but fun plot
Midnight Runners is the definition of pure entertainment. If you are here for the main actors, you will not be disappointed. The absolute highlight of this movie is the incredible dynamic between Park Seo-joon and Kang Ha-neul. Their bromance, natural banter, and comedy timing are elite, and they easily carry the entire film.Plot-wise, you have to turn off your brain a little bit. Some moments are quite silly, unrealistic, and the tone shifts between dark crime and goofy comedy rather quickly. However, if you don't take it too seriously, it's an incredibly fun ride.It's not a deep masterpiece, but the charm of the cast makes it totally worth watching. A very fair 7/10 for the amazing vibes and laughs!Was this review helpful to you?

The standard
Ok without question Iāve watched 8 years or more of K Dramas, absolute best shows one can watch, never saw a Chinese drama to write about or rewatch, The Hidden Love has set the total mark of either K Drama or C dramas, at least in the Romantic Comedy type, They cannot do a. Enter Rewatch drama it has it all, and has made me very aware now of how much the Chinese has gained in movie making so Americans donāt have to worry But K Drama you better take notice.Was this review helpful to you?

Goddess Bless You from the Main Plot
Overall a solid watch, but it suffers from the same issue a lot of Thai BL/GL shows do when trying to branch out from a romance-only plotline, which is failing to balance the supposed main plot of the story with the romantic subplot.The first 6 episodes are incredibly well done and interesting, you feel curious about where the mysterious murder case is going and who could be the killer, and the horror scenes are very well placed within the narrative (props to the 2 female ghosts and the whole styling and photography team for creating such atmospheric scenes!).
However, the series already shows the first cracks in the romance department: we're supposed to believe that the police officer and the murder suspect-turned-witness-turned-spiritual consultant hit It off in the first episode and after literally noving in together are already making googly eyes at and falling over each other in the midst ot the most gruesome murder investigation. There's no investigation into Thup's background or the whole supernatural subplot, which is made even funnier when we find out who the killer is and how easily the hauntings are resolved.
From this point onward the supposed murder and horror plots have to fight for screen time with the romance, to the point where from episode 7 until the end of the series the characters start losing all their brain cells and start behaving in very convenient ways simply to move the plot along and allow space for the pairings' relationship development and love confessions. Even the reveals regarding the killer and their motives are underwhelmed by badly placed romantic scenes, which start feeling more and more like fan service.
The last 2 episodes are truly baffling, it's like the screenwriters gave up the pretence of caring about the plot and focused fully on the romance to the point where the very intricate murder case took the back seat and was fully resolved within the first 20 minutes of the last episode.
Overall, this is a series for people who like romance with a side of plot, and not people who like a plot with a side of romance. If vou watch it without trying to understand the murder case it becomes more enjoyable, because if you pay any attention to it you'll figure it out by the halfway point and the series starts feeling draggy and the characters start looking like they're getting progressively stupider. For those who prefer a focus on a strong plotline where the romance is still important but doesn't outshine the message of the story and all the characters, I recommend watching Khemjira instead.

love very much
This has to be my favorite drama of all time!! I love that it was about time travel with a hint of romance in it. I did get confused at first of this drama but more I watched it, I got less confused due to the fact that bro Shi Yoon so fine! he is one of my favorite actors of all time and his sing voice is beautiful! I look up to his character a lot in some ways. Kim Min Jae is great actor, I loved him in the The Dr. Romantic season 2, he was so cute!! I didnāt know he can dance like that. :) .Was this review helpful to you?
