Fangs of emotions that touch our hearts!!

Fangs of fortune is a different concept of all the dramas that I have watched so far.It shows us the basic concept of triumph of good over evil in a new way, interwoven with emotions and lifetime bonds formed throughout the journey.
Plot-The story starts off with the intro of Wen Xiao and Zhu Yan,the great demon,who willingly volunteers to help the demon hunting bureau to catch evil demons alongside,Zhuo Yichen, the descendant of Bingyi clan and makes a pact with him.They are joined by Pei Sijing,an excellent archer and Bai Jiu,a talented physician kid.Later on Ying Lei,mountain god,too joins them to solve mysteries in and around Wilderness and Tiandu.
Cast-Neo Hou,as,Zhao Yuanzhou/Zhu Yan is excellent and perfectly cast.I think this is one of his best performances.
Zhu Yan,is,naughty,smart,patient, emotional,caring, loving, kind hearted responsible,great demon.Though he is widely knows as the evil demon,he has a painful side of him but has kept it only to his heart.Neo Hou carried the role of the great demon perfectly.Be it costumes, emotions,teasing, action scenes, charismatic,protective of loved ones,he is the main asset of this drama, in my opinion.His character is well written and presented.
Chen Duling as Wen Xiao,is smart,beautiful, knowledgeable,caring,kind human who feels demons and humans are the same and demons are not to be treated badly.Her acting is also good.
I particularly liked the little romantic scenes between Zhu Yan and Wen Xiao.Their chemistry was also good.
Zhuo Yichen, played by Tian Jiarui,is one friend that everyone dreams of.He is like an elder brother to Ying Lei and Bai Jiu(also a hero for him).I liked the way he always tries to protect his friends and also tries to understand people and their situations.His acting was excellent.
From a person who vows to kill Zhu Yan to a dearest friend who waits for the return Zhao Yuanzhou,I think his inner conflict, struggle,was beautifully portrayed.The best part of this drama is the friendship between Zhu Yan and Zhuo Yichen.I liked how Mr.Zhuo was able to understand all the pain and agony that Zhao Yuanzhou had to endure and hence could not pull himself to kill Zhu Yan.Their relationship is one of the highlights of this drama.
Ms.Pei Sijing,a cold and distant ,introverted,talented archer joins the group to become a friend for a lifetime.Together with her brother Pei Siheng, they are always there to take care of their friends.Theirvsiblung bond was very good.He was always there for his sister in times of need.Cheng Xiao as Pei Sijing and Lai Weiming as Pei Siheng were the best.Their acting was on point and brought the Pei siblings to life.
Lester Lin as Bai Jiu ,who is pampered by the whole group,is outstanding in his role.Be it a timid innocent doctor or a ruthless villain after getting occupied,he was outstanding in his performance.His story was a bit heartwrenching for me.
Xu Zhenxuan as Ying Lei,is surely a good trio with Zhuo Yichen and Bai Jiu.Ying Lei is indeed the best Mountain god.
And finally,Li Lun,played by Yan An,is phenomenal in his acting.Be it sinisterous,threatening,villainous,he is surely that antagonist who makes you fear him.But I liked the way he stood for the protection of the world at the end.
All the other star cast were good in their performances.
The costumes.sets,visual effects, screenplay,and particularly MUSIC were excellent.The music matched well with all the situations and was perfect.
On a final note,Fangs of Fortune is a highly recommended emotional drama which show cases lifetime bonds formed through Demon hunting bureau.The six members are protective of others and are willing to go to great lengths for their friends and the world too.
Also,it show cases that seeing us not believing but everything has its own reasons and causes.
Understanding a person emotionally is tough yet important.
A MUST WATCH DRAMA!!

Engaging drama to watch

After a long time,I decided to watch this treasure drama.But luckily I was not disappointed.
The story begins with Ding Yunqi,a doctor who studied in Uk returning to China in search of his father where he learns about Kunlun mountains,which is being guarded by the Ding family and Penta sect.How the protagonist finds out is the rest of the story.
Ding Yunqi is a very calm,smart and cool male lead.He sticks to his principles,values,virtues,gives relationships utmost importance and never compromises.Xu Kai as Ding Yunqi has really acted well especially after seeing him in a jovial role in arsenal military academy.His role here is quite contrast but he performed excellent.
Zhong chu xi as Wu shuang is really good.Wu shuang is naive and honest and sincere.
The other actors acted well.
I personally liked the brotherhood between Ding Yunqi,Luo yunsong and Sun sanxuan.
Luo yunsong character development was good.
The whole journey of this team to the Kunlun mountains is exciting,suspenseful and engaging.
I personally liked the pace of the drama with no nonsense.
One of the best cdramas to watch.give it a go.?

Different aspirations,goals and destinies

This drama is primarily based on a story of 2 friends played by Cheng Yi and Li Yifeng.
Both of them hailing from the same village,join in the same sect after a disaster strikes their village.The post events that take place in their lives forms the latter part of the story
Both the actors were quite good in their roles.
Yang Zi,Qin Junjie and Zhao Liying were also good in their roles.
The pace was good.There were not many twists and turns and the villains are the typical antagonists that we see in any drama.
Though the plot is not so intense, but still it is watchable.
A good wuxia drama.

A voyage of unexpected twists

Every coin has two sides,even science too.The advancement of science and technology has adversing effects if not put to proper use.
One such story is The Soul movie.
Chang Chen and Janine Chang ,in the movie,take up a case which is very complicated and complex.What appears to be a murder case,after many twists and turns, finally unfolds as a case with a hidden dark conspiracy.
Thought the first half of the movie,may not make sense or may be sometimes tough to understand,but the second half really is very thrilling and quite suspenseful enough to make you glued to the movie till the end.
The actors were good ,the climax twist was really unexpected.
Overall a good movie.It may not be everyone's cup of tea,but if you want to watch,then you will not be disappointed.

A mix of treasure hunt, politics and martial arts

To start with,I would say this is a typical Qin Junjie drama with lots of martial arts and at the same time politics going on.
Men Sandao,room the previous dynasty,is brought back from the prison to stop people who are persuading the treasure.Qin Junjie was brilliant in his role.His body language,action scenes,expressing emotions, dedication towards his duty and everything about him were perfect.
Zhuo Bufan just wants to provide good food and a name for his sect.Even keeping aside his self respect,he accepts a task opposed to his ideals and principles.Liu Yuning shines in his role.But I didn't like the way his character ended nor his sect members were killed.That were some tear eyed moments in this drama.
The most annoying character for me definitely remains Wang Jialuo.He is as stubborn as hell,never tries to understand things,failed to apply the laws in a righteous manner and sadly did not show any signs of his improvement till the end.Though his character starts off being an upright and just constable,slowly it starts irritating you because of his naiveness and stupidity which otherwise caused many people 's deaths.
The plot is intriguing though it has its flaws,sometimes makes you unable to keep.up with the pace.All the characters have their own missions to carry out and their actions and reactions keep driving the story forward.
Overall,I suggest you to give it a try despite its flaws.It may not be everyone's cup of tea but you will not be disappointed.

Impressive second part

At the end of the first part,Ji Yunhe is rescued by Chang Yi from Immortal fairy Shunde,and taken back to his ice kingdom.
After going through many situations in their lives,for the sake of Flower valley spiritual masters,not succumbing to frost mark,Ji Yunhe sacrifices herself,but resurrects as a nine tailed fox,who is revived by Lin Hao Qing using his half of the spiritual power.
How all of them together team up to remove the evil villains forms the later half.
I liked the second part more than the first part, especially the character of Lin Hao Qing.He was very warm and w helped Ji Yunhe till the end.For me,he was the best in second part.
As usual,Ji Yunhe is daring and goes to a large extent to achieve peace in the world along with Chang Yi.
The stories of the other 2 couples in the drama were good too.
All the actors played their roles well,though the most annoying character was Fairy Shunde.
Excellent second part after a fabulous first part.

Story of stone and pearl!!

Jin Xing Jiang,played by Jasper Liu,is a stone who has transformed into an extraordinary human with high demonic power who runs a gallery which attracts many demons.
He also solves the cases that involve annoying demons wreaking havoc in human world,brings together humans and demons who are in love with each other, and though few end in tragedy.
Jin Xing Jiang is a very calm,sincere, honest,person ,who wants to resurrect his fiance Ye Ming,played by Gulnezer Bextayar,transformed from a night pearl.
To be honest,I felt Ye Ming sometimes annoying,foolish and naive for the demonic power she possess.
I particularly loved the characters of Ye Li Na and Ye Qing Chun,who were very helpful, These brother-sister duo were much matured than the female lead.
Also,I liked the romantic track between Lian Xuan and Xiao Qing.They were cute,though it ended as a tragedy.
Yu shaobai is a typical annoying villainy,who with Ye Ming,create many unpleasant scens to watch.They both were rather boring to watch
Nonetheless,all the actors were good in their roles, especially I was impressed by the acting skills of Jasper Liu.
Also,there were different stories of different pairs,which though were not interrelated,but involved the main leads.Few of them were good.
This drama may not disappoint you,it can be watched once atleast for the different stories portrayed.So,for me it's a decent watch.
