I loved the first movie and the cast was so great. I thought the ending was perfect!! The second movie honestly destroyed so many of the good things in the first movie. I liked the addition of Vic Zhou and thought he was a great character. The story of him and Zi Xin's boss is also quite cute. I'm not a big fan of Zi Xin's boss but she didn't ruin the movie. What did ruin the movie for me was the so called "love triangle" between Zi Xin, Qi Hong, and Sheng Ran. I wanted Zi Xin to end up with Qi Hong so bad and in the first movie they were so perfect for each other. I still think that Sheng Ran is quite a "zha nan" or douchebag and for some reason Zi Xin decided that was okay after he just climbed a building, which, might I add, Qi Hong built just for her. I LOVE the the love story between Zi Xin and Qi Hong and I was so so so disappointed by the ending in this movie.
The acting was pretty good, considering the cast is quite stellar. Also, the music was a shining part of this movie. They picked great songs and they fit in so well with the story, so kudos for a good choice in music.
This drama is an average, quite cliche chinese drama. Kimi is, of course, amazing in this and he was the reason i first started watching this drama. such a shame, he was such a good actor. the story and plot is good, and i like the ost, particularly one of the songs. the main actress is relatively new, and i believe no where as good of an actress as some leads but she did a good job playing her party, don't know if it's just me, but i kind of think she looks like zhang ziyi. however, after like twenty episodes i started getting really annoyed at how materialistic the main actress was and her personalit, quite frankly, wasn't cute but irritating at some points. i absolutely hated li cuicui from the start!! i thought she was an annoying suckup and she deserved what she got completely, people like her are the worst. one of my absolute favorite parts of this drama was the second male lead, su zong, aka the leads half boss. this was a complete case of second lead syndrome, i looked forward to all of his scenes he was so attractive and wished he could find someone better than the female lead!!!
basically: good drama, but definitely skipped a lot of scenes and sometimes complete episodes
pros: KIMI, fantastic second male lead (su song), the fashion and car racing twists in the story, and funny best friend/boss of kimi, gao yong i think
cons: li cuicui, the brother and his "wife", the female lead in the second half
