STORY: Okay... As a huge fan of the drama version, Eternal Love/Ten Miles Peach Blossoms, this will be a let down. It took me a long while to finally get to see this movie. & Like other reviewers said, do not watch with high expectations. In the beginning when I heard this movie was coming out, I already had a bad feeling about it. The story is very much the same. And as other reviewers said, if you are new to the movie without knowing the backstory (readers of the book or fans of the drama version), it may seem very confusing. It starts in the middle area of the story of the drama version. This movie squeezes everything from the drama into a movie. So it feels really rushed and fast paced. Like, you can't even feel the feels while watching it... I did not like the ending area at all.. Everything was all explained and squeezed in the end in a big ass bunch and you will be like, uh ok wtf??? And a lot of scenes seem like they were being replaying a lot... Which seems like a lot of time wasted... And each time it seems like they don't wanna reveal it to you either until the end... So it's like shady business through out the end.. So I really... Did not like that... Plus... Ending ended very odd and more confusing... So I just can't anymore XD ACTING/CAST: I am a fan of Liu Yifei, she's really pretty and I've seen her other work... But in this movie, it's just so rushed and I just felt like I wasn't really impressed with her in here and with this certain piece... Comparing her to Yang Mi as the Queen of Qing Qiu, I would choose Yang Mi because she can portray as a tough and cold person better. With Liu Yifei, she seems a bit like stiff on that. And of course, she does well as a kind Su-Su, but that was rarely shown... A lot of things were rarely shown in this movie... So idk man... Yang Yang... I am a fan of him as well, but I just can't with this piece XD I am sure that they would've done a better job with a better production, better well-thought plot that is not squeezed and rushed like this. Maybe if they coulda been the main leads in the Eternal Love drama, maybe they could do as well or not... Who knows... But judging by this rushedly odd piece it is very hard to look at it... Also, there's a green blob in there that gotta go. The CGI is somewhat ok, but that green blob thooo. MUSIC: Like other reviewers, what they said is true... Since there was so many things going on, I did not pay any attention to the music nor did it catch my attention. REWATCH VALUE: I do not want to rewatch it over again ever in my life!!!! I can barely watch it the first time!!!
