Yun zhi yu (2023)
Wish i would like it more...but
Gloom and doom from. Beginning to end! Just cry and talk a lot about their personal issues. Beautiful cinematography and good resolution on IQYJI (4k), which is all that is positive about this drama. The story has too many holes and not logical. Outsiders were accepted in groups while Dong family is afraid of spy infiltration? What a conflict !
The story is slow and dragging out without much action. I guess if you like people crying and keep talking about their own personal problems, then this is for you. For me, nope.
I did wish it sped up a bit and more actions but nope. It does have some investigation stories that were a bit interesting but again....it keeps going back to the cry and personal issue of one telling someone else, basically all throuout the whole drama episodes until the end!
Too bad.
Feng Qi Ni Chang (2021)
Very well made drama, although a bit dragged out like any other Chinese dramas...i just don't understand why they all drag out too long..
Very well made drama, although a bit dragged out like any other Chinese dramas...i just don't understand why they all drag out too long..Must be for financial purposes. The costumes are gorgeous and so do the makeups. The scenes and filming were beautiful...watching this on my Sony OLED 77'' is a treat and showing all the detailed makeup on each actor. On the drama story, it is great story, just that some of the episodes could be cut out and still would not harm the story one bit. I wish more fighting scenes since they are also quite good and realistic. One thing that might be improved , but i don't know if it is because of the main female lead acting or the goal of the director, she is quite annoying and stupid at the same time, i just dont know why those men in this drama are so attracted to her....i can't stand stupidity.
Shan he zhi ying (2023)
Should have been a good drama to watch but...
Good production, good promise, but plagued with childish behavior, bad director, convoluted turns and dragging out too long. I got confused after a while, not knowing what was going on and watched it while i did other things...just wanted to see the ending goes. In other words, if you got nothing to do and are not afraid to waste your time, then watch it. Another thing is sometimes i felt like I'm watching a chinese opera on stage. The main characters have a strange love hate relationship that just does not make any sense like you would normally see. I think either the director or the write of this tries to make it an important point, but just did not look natural.
Too bad, again, not too many good Chinese period dramas anymore. There are a few better ones on prime.
Hanna (2019)
Going downhill with season 3. Too dark most of the time so taking a toll on me eyes plus the story is no believable
Too dark most of the time so taking a toll on me eyes plus the story is no believable Not interesting to watch with same predictable plot like other thousands of movies or shows. Lame action and acting. Skip it and save your time.
Alex (2017)
First season, i rated 8, second season 4-5...going down hill
First season was really really good! All was great, from plots, acting and directing. Second season, not so much, as most of the TV series and/or movies with follow ups. The second season, the main character, Alex, the actor is still very good, but the main female character was not too convincing and could be direction of the director, acted quite uninterested and logically ridiculous...I would fault the director for this.
Any way, i turned off this and watched something else after the 3rd episode.
Spuren des Bösen (2010)
Wow, what a show....terrific acting and plots
Beautifully done...in everything. Strange that some rated this show low and complained that it IS SLOW...not sure what they expect, Star War movies or something?
Engrenages (2005)
Last season was a bad one
Used to love all of the previous seasons prior to the 7th season...7th season was getting worse but still watchable. The 8th season was a mess...with plots that dont make sense and not logical. Too boring and predictable should I say? I skipped episode 4-7, and watch 8-10 just to get it over with. They should stop making it because it is basically an attempt to make $ instead of making a good show. Also, the main actors are looking tired like the have no more energy to work.
Hassel (2017)
Great cop show!
Not sure what the others who related this 1 star....you know not a lot of bad shows really deserved one star...so when someone rated something one star, you want to question their ability to know what is good or bad. This how does not have lots of useless and fake actions like Rambo or movies by someone like Steven Segal, but just something realistic and good story and good acting...no flashy, high level of special movie effect...
Just a good plot, good acting, and good interesting story to follow from beginning to end...that is all I can ask for.
Rebecka Martinsson (2017)
Great serie to watch...
Really like the first season, with the lead actress and the stories. A bit slow at first but the more you watch the more i was into it. However, I did not go thru the second season due to the change of the lead actress....not as involving nor as good acting.
Kingdom (2019)
Good show except there is a big hole in the story line- spoiler alert
Overall a good show to watch. Engaging and good acting, good flow of story and great picture quality except one big gaping hole in the story at the end. I usually do not like the story with some illogical plots somewhere.
The nurse already found out that the walking-deass do not like water, but at the end, when they ransacked the palace, she did not say anything to the prince when she saw him except to cry like a baby and did not act like someone who was the most knowledgeable one on this decease that was killing everyone. And the prince? While facing the bad queen, acted like he had to request her to step down after he knew what she's been doing with the whole plot?
Comon!!
He li hua ting (2019)
Great show but the emperor is one stupid mf
The emperor is tricked one time after another. Is it a fault of the person who wrote this sorry? Would be unrealistic and annoying
Reprisal (2019)
Good interesting show, but could have cut out a few episodes if nog dragging out too much
Could have been a 9. I cut down a couple of stars due to its slowness and dragging out too much in some scenes in the middle. However, it is still a good show to binge-watch.
Berlin Station (2016)
Great, engaging, heart-pounding, realistic story, acting and produced
Just to see the filming locations is worth the watch. I've been to most of these locations so it is special for me to see them on the screen again. The acting, plots, direction, lighting, locations, story are all first rate. It is a treat to watch these series.
Chang'an shi er shi chen (2019)
Wat a show!! Best in the last 10 years watching Chinese Dramas
Well written, great acting, awesome plots and smarts. Highly recommended. I binge-watched this for a couple of days.
