Battle of Changsha Episode 8 Reacties
Although there are many serious and possibly thrilling events related to the war, things that if had a different approach by the series, then it'd be tense or, at least, come offer a sense of urgency. However, this sense of urgency is deviated to the personal matters of the characters we, as the audience, grew interested and/or attached to during the past episodes.
I don't consider any of that as a defect, though. It's clear the series focuses on the story of the Hu family (so far) and I'm enjoying it. But, even that part of the story is coming off too lighthearted.
It is enjoyable and lovely to watch, but the story should focus a little more on getting the characters not only this much good, but draw them closer to the audience.
But then again, I haven't watched many Chinese TV series, I believe this might just be the first one really from China (?) - although, I do watch many movies and short series, I guess. I can see how they focus much more on the situation itself by delivering lines and by the characters' behaviors towards the situation they are in.
Problem is - or so I think - I'm not that close to that culture just so that can make that much of an impact for me? This episode features an important piece of the story that - again - should come out with a grave sense of the urgency. I think they did try that in this episode, so I sincerely believe my distance of the culture caused me to be partially alienated to the series' attempt (?), maybe.
Yet, this particular urgent matter came out in the episode before this one and didn't seem to work out that well either.
Whatever the case is, I can't deny that the episode is still good and the series works out well - maybe not as it should for me. I'm still enjoying it and quite curious and looking forward for what's coming next.
