Somewhat boring love story between two really good looking people
I must be in the minority here because I didn't find this a very good drama. Yes it is watchable because the sets, the people, the clothes are all very beautiful, but the story itself is so boring. Nothing really happens in the plot that makes you want to stay up to watch the next episode. The acting is ok. Nothing too impressive but not bad either. Both leads suit their roles well and they do look really good together. Such a beautiful pairing but I personally didn't feel the chemistry was that strong with them. Dilraba seems to have better chemistry with Gao Wei Guang and Zhang Bin Bin. The aerospace and gaming plots didn't really catch my interest either.If you're looking for a fluffy love story with two very good looking leads, or are into gaming then this might be for you!

Disappointed overall...
Really anticipated this drama as I'm a huge fan of Zhao Lusi, but this drama was a pretty big letdown.The good: the side characters were actually quite likeable, especially YanYan. Ao Rui Peng is absolutely hilarious as Yan Yan. He was funny and over the top in a loveable way. I will definitely be looking for more of his dramas to watch. Also impressed with the SML acting! Sometimes find myself wishing he was the ML instead. Also adorable was the relationship between FL and her father especially at the beginning. The leads' martial arts master was also a cool funny character but he kind of just of disappeared after the first half.
The bad: the plot basically goes in circles. They keep repeating the same ideas (basically they pretend to fall into the villains trap but actually outsmart him again and again). The FL and the ML are not particularly interesting or even likeable. I honestly found myself not caring about what happened to them near the end. The FL and ML have zero chemistry. Zhao Lusi usually has incredible chemistry with her costars but there is nothing here. Their sweet scenes are cringey and the actors themselves even look bored. Towards the end, I felt more towards the bad guys than the leads and sometimes skipped their scenes together.
Verdict: not worth watching even for a huge Lusi fan...

Must watch!
Just finished this drama and wow i was impressed! Great cast with good acting all around! Usually when theres a huge cast like this, i have a hard time remembering who is who, but the characters are all memorable here and have depth! They each have their own stories and so not exist just to move the plot along. The directing, cinematography and pace were all excellent. No boring parts at all but still had enough moments between the characters to flesh out relationships. Loved that this wasn't solely focused on romance (the title is a bit misleading). The fight scenes were amazing. Liu shishi is perfectly cast here as a cold assassin and Liu yuning is the perfect match here as her equal.This drama sprinkled just the right amount of comedy in the perfect spots. The first half had me laughing to myself almost every episode. I didnt know Alen Fang had comedic chops!
The ending gutted me but i was prepared from all the spoilers online. I do feel this was the "right" ending for the characters and i appreciate the directors not forcing a happy ending just to please viewers. A tragic ending is sometimes more impactful and it made sense the core group died as heroes.
Anyway, this is a must watch! Have tissues ready for the last few episodes though.

Love Like the Galaxy: Part 2

By far the best drama this year!
This is a must watch! Excellent excellent in every way.The story/plot is excellent and not too tropey. The pacing is excellent! Every scene has its purpose and there are no fillers. I haven't fast forwarded even one scene. I've actually gone back to rewatch scenes if I look away to do something. I usually watch dramas in the background while doing chores but this drama is so good, I actually save it for times I can solely focus on it! Acting is excellent all around from the leads, to the supporting characters. Chemistry between Zhao Lusi and Wu Lei is off the charts! They are so compatible in acting, looks and age! Every scene they have together is special. Cinematography is excellent! This director is so good at making each shot purposeful. The music is perfectly enhances the mood of scenes without being a distraction. The characters (even the side characters) are all very well written and so many are likeable even with their flaws.
Must watch!

Excellent!
Excellent drama! Very enjoyable!The cast was beautiful and acted well all around. The sets, costumes, hair makeup was all beautiful.
The story was interesting and kept me chasing episodes! Chemistry was very good between ML and FL as well as with the SFL and SML.
Bai Lu delivers as always in costume and looks good with Zhang Ling Hei. She has good chemistry with both males. Zhang Ling Hei is good but he his acting can still improve a little bit. He has good screen presence and excellent chemistry with Bai Lu. Wang Xing Yu was excellent as thr SML! I cant believe he is so young.
Overall highly recommend!

Beautiful drama!
Excellent! Bai lu and Luo Yunxi never disappoint!The plot is interesting and the cast is excellent! Luo Yunxi is amazing as TTJ and the devil. He is plays each role so different and looks amazing. Such screen presence! Bai Lu is so beautiful in this and acting is excellent. She is one of the few actresses that can portray cute without being infantile and annoying. The second female Sun Zhenni is so beautiful and perfectly portrayed the seductive fox demon. Chemistry between the main cast is excellent all around! The costumes, makeup, hair, sets, cast are all so beautiful.
Must watch! This and Lost You Forever are my top 2 dramas this year!

Starts slow but stick with it! It gets so good!
I honestly didn't know if I could stick with it after the first 3-4 episodes. This drama starts very very slow but now I am absolutely hooked! The cast is excellent! Great acting and chemistry from pretty much everyone in this cast including the supporting actors, but especially from Wu Lei and Zhao Lusi. These two are 100% compatible in looks, age, acting skills and chemistry! Every time they share the screen, it's something special. I wish there were more SS and LBY scenes. Never read the book so I'm not sure how true they are to the characters, but I am very impressed with both their acting. They are able to convey so much with subtle expressions and eye contact.The story is also quite refreshing and original. This is a drama sprinkled with just the right amount of comedic elements to make it fun to watch! I really enjoyed the scrore and cinematography as well. I had really high hopes for Who Rules the World but was actually quite disappointed with the overall story/production. Love like the Galaxy is actually a much richer story and seems to have a better production, director and team behind it. If you watch the BTS, you will see the entire cast/crew seemed to have the best time filming this and the resulting work they put out reflects that. Can't wait for part 2!

Suprisingly good!
Watched this on a whim and was pleasantly surprised! The plot is interesting and the story moves quite quickly. Started this with no prior knowledge of Jeremy Tsui or Brigitte Qiao and found that they are really good together! They have excellent chemistry! Jeremy Tsui'a comedic timing is so good and he uses subtle body language and mannerisms to portray his character. She perfectly matches his energy with their back and forth banter. I would recommend this on chemistry alone! The supporting cast was just ok but its still worth a watch!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Good but not great
Cute fluffy drama. Good chemistry between the leads and cute sibling relationship between Sang zhi and her brother. The very realistic portrayal of siblings was my favorite part of this drama! Main complaint is ZLS portrayal was too exaggerated. She spoke in such a slow baby voice it felt like she was developmentally delayed. Especially weird because the child that played her younger self was so smart and quick-witted and then suddenly when she grew up, its like she lost some IQ. ZlS portrayal was very cringy at times. The director did an amazing job giving us shots of CZY that felt alot like your dreamy first crush and he certainly acted and looked the part.Overall the story is cute with good chemistry but the female lead acting too juvenile can be annoying to watch.

Wasted potential
Story is confusing and choppy, the characters are not particularly likeable and the acting is bland.Had high hopes for this drama but it was quite a disappointment. Yang yangs acting is quite stiff as usual although he looks very handsome here. Zhao lusi fails to portray a strong female here and comes off as smug. Her fight scenes are also not believable. She lacks the aura of a warrior queen (yang mi in fuyao was excellent). And for all the rumors of the leads dating, the onscreen chemistry was just not there.

Must watch!
One of the first Chinese dramas I've ever watched and still remains one of my favorites!The story is so rich and involves a huge cast but all the characters have their part to play in the story. The main leads are so perfect! Yang mi is so good at Bai Qian. I can't imagine another actresses doing this role. She transitions from lively young disciple to helpless mortal to powerful immortal so easily. You can really tell the difference between each stage of her characters growth. Mark chao is so good as Ye Hua. The leads have amazing chemistry.
The pacing of this drama is really good. There was not a single point where I wanted to stop watching. The story is so rich and even the side stories (Feng Jiu and Dong Hua) are interesting.
Overall this is a must watch for cdrama fans!

Unique drama worth watching!
I really enjoyed My Journey to You. It is not like your run of the mill wuxia. It is highly stylized and the plot is unique. The pacing is good and its only 24 episodes which meant theres never any boring parts! Yu shuxin really surprised me and was quite good as a female assassin completely different from any of her previous roles or what you see of her on variety shows. She really showed her range here and she wont be type-cast into cutesy roles. Even her actions scenes looked realistic! Zhang Linghei was good as the seemingly soft hearted heir (major golden retriever vibes lol). The SFL and SML were amazing with their acting and had smoldering chemistry!Definitely give this dark wuxia a watch!

So good! One of the best drama of 2023
This drama was so well done!The plot was refreshing and the characters are fully fleshed out. Acting was excellent overall. The standouts are obviously Yang Zi and Tan Jianci. I have a new appreciation for Yang Zi as an actress. During the first half when she plays a man, she fully commits and delivers from her voice to body language. I loved that she didnt care about being beautiful while acting as a man. Tan Jianci is do good as Xiang Liu! The clothes, makeup, hair, acting all perfectly portrayed his character. The chemistry between Yang Zi and each male was very believable and felt different based on their relationships!
My only complaint is the acting of Deng Wei was so flat. Whenever he was onscreen, its like theres a void sucking the energy out of the room lol!
I can't wait for part 2! If you only watch one drama this year, make sure its this one!

Must watch!
Pleasantly surprised by this drama! This drama was not on my watchlist until i saw all the good reviews online. The buzz was well deserved!The story itself was rich, complex and interesting. All the side characters had their own motivations for their actions that for the most part made sense. Xu Kai and Jing Tian have amazing amazing chemistry! I used to think Xu Kai only had chemistry with Bai Lu, but this drama proved me wrong. Xu kai is perfectly cast in his role. He has a mischevious flirty side reminiscent of his role in Arsenal Military Academy. Jing Tian perfectly plays the intelligent smart strong female general and is so beautiful! There is a good mix of sweetness/romance, angst, action and comedy. The pacing and editing is excellent. There are no boring parts to skip through. Overall a very enjoyable 40 episodes!

Low budget filler drama
Not sure what I expected when i watched this but it was disappointing in every aspect. Liu Te does not have the acting skills to be a ML. Not sure what his background is, but he's basically a void in this drama. ZLS is also very cringy in this. Maybe its the character or maybe she knows this is not gonna be a good drama because she looks bored here. Also, ZLS looks so frumpy and its especially bad compared to the SFL. The plot is silly and nonsensical and the leads have zero chemistry. How is this even rated at 8 stars? Don't waste your time on this, its really a bad drama.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
