An awesome combination of fun, humor, love & romance, cuteness and just wonderful
This series is seriously very sweet and lovely, with a nice mixture of romance, quirkiness and humour. I find the male lead and female lead chemistry of working together is very awesome, even on the romance part. The other casts also did a very good job, including the little boy with his childish cheekiness. The series is not very long - episode wise - and there aren't any overly stressy drama within. It is definitely worth a watch, although rewatching again would depend on individual. The music paired with the entire series is also very very beautifully paired. Great job on this series to all involved!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Was nice but extremely long
I watched this series many years ago. I have heard of Meteor Garden, but never watched the original one. This is my 1st Meteor Garden series watching. Firstly, I would have to say, I extremely love the soundtrack / OST of this series. They are indeed beautifully paired with the movie. Next, the casts all did a very good job including all the main actors and actresses. Length wise, I would say that the 50 episodes are very very long, especially the "remembering the past" bits, after a while gets quite tiresome. The "drama" is also quite the killer, sometimes I feel like dragging that rich woman (DMS's mom)'s hair just to torture her xD It is definitely good to watch at least once, but ..... rewatch? I would think twice.... if I would want to go thru all the unnecessary drama, long windedness etc ;)Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
It's not as disappointing as many people make it sound
Accidentally found this series via some of their short snippets in my YouTube feed. Honestly, I really like the show. The story line may not be the best but it is also not bad. I would say it is great. I love the chemistry between the 2 couples throughout the whole show. I find the Male Lead and Female Lead quite nice - especially the Male Lead from watching Eternal love of dream. Overall, it is quite a cute, funny and adorable drama. Something light and not too long to relax with.Unlike many previous comments, I do not think the Female Lead is disappointing. She comes from a extremely poor background, a street performer. For someone who lives on the street, with no basic education whatsoever and a father that loves gambling, you don't expect that child to be completely competent, serious and matured especially when entertaining is your main source of income. On the contrary, seeing the Male Lead taking the initiative to teach her writing and the princess' maiden in waiting teaching her some manners, I see improvements in her throughout the show. You can teach an old dog new tricks but you can't just remove the spots out of a leopard.
My only opinion to those reading this is, if you like what you read in the synopsis of the series, give it a go. If not, proceed to the next series.

I like it, though might not mean you would ;)
Watched this series some ages ago. I am very attracted to the OST paired with this series as it is really nice and awesome. The storyline is also quite interesting, with some drama, suspense and of course not forgetting romance. The male lead and female lead are quite good together, the height difference was quite adorable to watch also in many scenes. There are also various funny scenes / moments. All in all, the entire cast really did a great job - even the "bad guys" and I really love this series loads. Definitely something to watch - rewatch would depend on your individual thoughts if it is worth the 2nd or more watch.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
My most loved series!
The first time I completed this series, I completely fell in love with the story, the actors / actresses, the songs etc. The story line is wonderful, a few minor changes from the book but not that obvious. But this did not stop me from watching this series a few more times! <3 I especially love Dilraba´s acting. She is so lively and cheeky in this series. She is definitely having loads of chemistry with Vengo Gao, making them an incredible pair for this series. Kudos to them! The music in this series is absolutely stunning - both vocal and instrumental. The right music at the right spots make the series even more amazing!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

There is alot of "Too Much"
This is purely my own personal opinion of the series :I was attracted to the series because of the synopsis followed by Diliraba and Huang Jing Yu along with some other actors and actresses I have watched from other dramas. But after, with alot of effort, finishing this series completely, I would have to say that this series, despite having a good storyline, is TOO long winded, TOO much insanity and much unnecessary drama and TOO much "side shows". Yes, the casts - I would say - did do a good job in portraying their characters individually, including the 5 main casts. But I really feel it is so much a waste of time with this 45 episodes.
I actually skipped quite alot of parts, especially when those insanity dramas starts piling up. I especially hated Zhou Fang (Diliraba's character)'s mother from beginning till almost the last 5 to 10 episodes where she mellowed down. I feel that there is seriously too much unnecessary drama for alot of the characters and that it is quite poor planning / story line writing. It would make an ok or good first watch, if you have read and liked what you read in the synopsis, but I don't think I will bring myself to go rewatch 45 episodes of alot of utter horror.
The only good part of the series is, I love their music pairing and the 2 main couple pairs are adorable. That is about the only thing I like of the series.

Ablity to see a person's lifespan is interesting
The synopsis was intriguing. Having the ability to see a person's lifespan makes quite an interesting series to watch. With 16 episodes and a total of 1 hour per episode, it is actually quite ok.Overall, the series is very nice to watch, quite interesting. Although the vast age difference between the Male and Female lead is interesting. The Male Lead also did a very good job playing the "blur one" most of the time. I would say overall all the casts of this series did a good job bringing life to this series, although I personally wouldn't mind a bit lesser of the psychotic fiance of the Male Lead. Extremely disturbing lady that one! Nonetheless, she did play her role superbly.
The music is also beautifully paired and I really enjoyed the music.

Feels slightly long winded
The series is actually cute, funny and nice. Though - in my personal opinion - feels slightly long winded with abit tad too much of "drama" all around. Too much turning around and tantrums. The story line is actually quite interesting, the female lead and male lead make a cute couple together - one cheeky and "street smart" and the other smart, rich but a slight emotional block. The other casts also did a good job of bringing this series to life. It is just tad long winded for me. But I really love watching the main couple scenes and how they do fall in love over time.Re-watching it is definitely not for me. I did enjoy the series, but it will not bring me to re-watch as I really find it long winded.
The music is also beautifully paired in this series. Loved most of the songs.

Definitely a no no
I love my shark shows, been watching alot of them in English. So I was actually quite excited when I found this show, unfortunately was greatly disappointed. I know, the sharks mostly are CGIs or if ever mechanical in majority of the shark movies, however, the shark in this movie... is omg totally disappointing and looks more like a big rubber shark. There isn't really much of a storyline for this movie - this is my very personal opinion - but mostly nom nom nom of the shark.From my personal opinion, I wouldn't recommend this movie. Unless if you love what you read in the synopsis of the movie. I definitely would not do a re-watch of this movie either. The cast, they did an alright job. Personally, I don't really see much "acting" but the casts involve did their best. I just feel the storyline did not bring it any justice.

Should have made it better
You can either take the series as it is, and you would probably find that the series is an alright series. Or you are the kind that wonders about many things and then this series has alot of holes. For me, personally, I think that there is alot of unanswered parts / questions in this series. The starting was fine, but unlike many series where the modern day person travels back in time, this series DOES NOT show or indicate from where and which era this modern person is from nor how did this person just happened to fall into this ancient era and into this body of Feng Wu (the female lead). On a generic overall scale, I would say the casts did a good job bringing their individual characters to life. But, storyline wise, not very happy. Too many gaps / holes, confusion etc. Even the ending is kinda "hanging".Personally, re-watch value, I wouldn't bother re-watching this series. Even though there are various actors / actresses I know and kinda like in this cast, I cannot bring myself to go through all this confusion and gaps again. Oh, the cast list has a mistake. Li Chuan's character name is Mu Jiu Zhou and not what has been written by the editors of this site. I have submitted an edit, but so far no reaction. Please do update to not confuse / mislead people. Thanks
Majority of the music paired to this series is very nice to listen to. Downloaded a few of them myself to keep in my playlist.

Uhmmmm..... what?
Basically, if you have never watched the series Eternal Love, you might enjoy this movie abit more. As for me, I watched the Eternal Love series first, then read the book and few years later only hunted down this movie. I would say that this movie is not good at all. It is like they are trying to put bits and bits of puzzles of the series together to make a movie starting from after the death of the mortal Su Su. The puzzles they are piecing together are quite choppy and, in certain areas, nonsensical.I was actually quite amazed with the cuteness of the movie at the beginning, especially with all the woodland creatures etc in Qing Qiu. That was indeed a nice way of portraying it. However, as the movie continues on, I literally skipped on many scenes to fast forward the movie. The ending is also........MEH...
All in all, I would recommend a first watch of this movie if you have not read the book or even watched the series Eternal Love. At least the disappointment ain't that great and your opinion of it would probably differ from me or anyone else that has watched the others first.
Did not really hear all the music for this movie. I only have one song that was a duet by Yang Yang and a lady (sorry, forgotten her name) which I like.

Very short series
If you are looking for just a short - extremely short series - without much drama etc, then this would be it. 24 episodes. each about 10 mins long. Overall, this short mini series is ok for watching for the first time, though me personally, I would not be doing any re-watching. The story is simple. All the characters / casts performed wonderfully, despite me not really liking the show. There are many funny scenes - I especially love the way how the Female Lead goes on a disappearing act on the Male lead all the time. I only wished that the ending was better.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Interesting but not very good
The lesson behind the movie is actually quite meaningful. Teaching you to love yourself and also to appreciate everything you have - from the biggest to the tiniest details of life. However, the movie is just not great. I am sure all the actors and actresses did a great job and hard work bringing this movie to life, however, it still did not really bring the entire movie to life. There are various gaps here and there. The little touch of Alice in the Wonderland is also quite interesting, but not good. The song written by the male lead in the movie is very nice though. Really love that song.Darren Chen as bad boy in this movie, so not nice lol. On the contrary, quite the turn off for me.
Rewatch value, for me personally... I won't go for a 2nd. Was a nice to watch the first time, that is about it.

Prepare yourself for the water tap and make sure you have tissues!
A story about life. This is not your ordinary drama, but touches more about Life and situations people will face. It is a very beautiful but sad drama with some cute adorable moments along with some humor. It is a beautiful story of watching two people getting to know each other, fall in love and work things out throughout life's challenges. Until the biggest challenge hits, a terminal illness. In this series, there are many life lessons and moments you can learn from. Many of the advises and scenarios are very valuable to learn. The series is also a rather tragic show, alot of waterworks - so make sure you prepare alot of tissues before watching.Both the male lead and female lead are quite adorable together and I feel like they really did an extremely good job portraying their characters. The entire casts also did an extremely good job bringing this series to life. The songs paired to this series are also quite nice and I love them.

Action packed movie
Plus point that surpasses many factors.... It's a Jackie Chan movie!! It's filled with action packed with a mixture of comedy (like all Jackie Chan movies). The additional parts would be that Yang Yang and a few other named people are within.Overall, I find this movie great and also funny at certain moments, filled with action and especially love movies that have a mixture of variety of languages within - along with the English subtitles for better understanding of the other languages. Personally, I feel that we should have more of these mixture of variety of languages and places in a movie. It was feeling quite strange - for me - to hear Jackie Chan conversing in Mandarin though as I have always only watched all of his movies in Cantonese. But still enjoyed the movie nonetheless. The entire casts also did a good job bringing the movie to life. It definitely is something I would watch again, but only because I really enjoyed the movie. There were various reviews commenting about CGIs in the movie, but oh come on.... CGIs have LONG EXISTED in many other movies, so why the heck are you complaining and whining about some CGI hyenas / animals?! Better a CGI of an animal than having a real animal and then some wanky animal activists wailing about animal abuse just for entertainment purposes!
