I’ve watched this twice.strangest thing. At first it was okay but the second time I watched it I loved it. This series was absolutely hilarious. The male lead expressions and forwardness kept me laughing. Even the supporting cast members were great. I loved the community they had as well as how they celebrated. It was very entertaining. I am absolutely certain that they had fun while filming this.

Rich girl gets taken advantage of and has to rely on those she least expected and how it played out was perfect.

There was action, comedy, some drama, a little sweetness and more. This is definitely something you’d enjoy as a pick me up or If you’re in need of a good laugh.

I highly recommend this.

50 shades of crazy

The series was most certainly entertaining. There was never a dull moment. This is definitely a plus for people who don’t like slow piece films. There was always something going on. The acting was good all around in this series. I also feel that the two leads did an amazing job.
What I like most about this series was the pacing and the acting.
What I dislike about the series was that our mail lead was left on the psycho rampage just way too long. Usually in these types of dramas the mood or temperament of the angered lead slightly shifts. It happened in this one somewhat however he maintained the role of the bad guy until nearly the last two episodes. That was just way too long. In addition to this the bickering and the misunderstandings went on to the very end and honestly for me it was a little bit exhausting. And dramas like this I usually am mellowed out by the calm moments between the lead where they have some peace and we get to see their relationship develop but it really didn’t happen here. I do feel like the lead could’ve had great chemistry however they were hardly at peace long enough to reveal any of it. There were a few moments but it was constant fighting. This is not a rewatch for me as I really couldn’t get attached to any other characters because they all seem like they had some major problems. From an onlookers perspective I would say that every cast member except for the uncle needed therapy.


Now for the crazy parts. When you find out someone is cheating on a relative the normal thing to do is let the relative know. That didn’t happen here. When someone is sexually harassing you, you report them or avoid them but you don’t find yourself missing them and the next moment be in love with them.

Overall I would say this series was just okay. If I was completely honest I would say almost so so. My reasoning: When I say plotless, I truly mean plotless. The initial synopsis is right but the series went down this pointless mystery road that made no significant difference to the story at all. Mom is ill and her son found a clue to her recipe and he goes on this journey to find the recipe. While on said journey, everyone he runs into pretends to know nothing (for no real reason. Really) I want day to much but this is not a rewatch for me. There’s some humor, sweet scenes, romantic scenes and some sad ones. This one had one of my least favorite things (a supposedly smart person who sacrifices her happiness for someone she barely knows- insert eye roll here).

Worst FL

This could have been so good but the actions of the FL was one that struck a cord with every abandoned child and every single mom wanting support, demanding what’s right. For that reason alone, it was not the best. To make it worst, the writers want us to like and pity her. I just couldn’t.

So what you’ll get here is a person who is giving an opportunity to tell the truth to the people that matter the most but she constantly ignores the request even though it’s hurting them. The sad part was that it was all spite.
I found it rather disturbing. FL was one of the most selfish, but the writers wanted her to be loveable! Nothing lovable about lying to your kid for over a decade and ignoring her feelings and hiding a child away from her father. It’s actually quite disturbing. The guy wasn’t abusive, dangerous or a threat in any way but she got in her feelings, disappeared and hurt/betrayed two people. If the writers made her remotely remorseful maybe it would’ve been better but she rode that lie until the very last few episodes even though her daughter was hurting. It’s actually pretty bad. Not cute.


Then she lets the kid misunderstand and blame the guy for abandoning her, like really. He had no idea she existed. The mom was awful.

So, was it love? Nope. It was Mrs selfish strikes again.

Refreshing

I really enjoy this series. This is one of the few films made in Thailand that I have really enjoyed it and felt it was sort of exciting. The acting was great and it was actually not overexaggerate which is often common today. The plot was most certainly interesting and engaging. You will get a mixture of action, comedy, romance and a little bit of mystery. All of which come together for a perfect series that will keep interviewer happy. I recommend this to anyone looking for a strong female lead with a blend of the Thailand historical culture as well as present. And if you’re looking for a good laugh with some action you will not be disappointed.

Don’t miss this amazing piece of cinema

I cannot express how amazing this series is. From beginning to end there is laughter, action, drama and all around boldness and sweetness. I have watched this series at least three times already and it never fails to amaze me. Honestly after watching it for the third time I saw things that I might’ve missed the first two times around but it was just that good and worth the watch.

What I love most about this series is that it surrounds royalty in a more modern time. Usually when you see anything about Kings and Queens, it’s all historical but this one is more current and upbeat and truthfully more connected to events that we see today. The acting was absolutely amazing and I must admit that this male lead would look good even if he was wearing a trash bag. He’s acting skills continue to be top notch and I absolutely cannot forget a female lead. We all know her and the quality of her work but she shines even brighter in this. The supporting cast were just as good. The second female lead in the series I had to see that literally brought tears to my eyes. I’m sure if you watch it the same will happen to you as well. Overall I feel that this series embodies family, commitment, love, loyalty and unity. All of which are shown at its finest quality.

Not possessive male lead but certainly psychotic. Not cute.

Long story short. They series is the embodiment of Stockholm syndrome with pretty decorations. To elaborate, a guy who is overprotective of his sister wants to make her happy, so he decides to entrap the woman who is a threat to it.
In the process of this he manipulates the situation which interns forced her into a relationship which she try to escape, literally, like trap on an island type escape, at every turn. The writers attempted to make this a romantic series because they possibly thought the concept was cute but this was the most toxic thing that I have ever seen.

Biggest spoiler below: be warned


Imagine your boyfriend cheats on you and impregnate someone else. He is apologizing to you and trying to get back into a relationship with you. The side chicks brother decides to force the guy to stay with his sister. To do that he lies and slander’s you in front of your parents to entrap you into a relationship with him so you are no longer available to date your ex. He likes you up or keeps you in a place where you have no idea where you are, limit your contact with anyone on the outside and acts like you were actually in a relationship for real. All this happens while you are seriously trying to get away. In the process of you trying to get away he charms you enough to make you like them. And then you escape and he comes for you and we get a happily ever after. What a load of garbage. This is so many forms of a legal I can’t even begin to describe it. Yes we see stuff like this all the time and historical films but this is stuff that actually happened during that error this however is so toxic it is awful.

Forced marriages is something that I have watched often in many series but never one on this caliber where the individuals movement is restricted, contact with others is limited and they actually feel trapped, manipulated, played and isolated. It was like a lifetime show or snapped with a happy ending.

I really enjoyed this drama. It had the perfect balance of everything. The relationships seemed to develop well, not being rushed. The relationship between the sisters was so amazing, you could only smile. Yes, you will get your fill of cooking scenes while watching it but the relationships and events come together so well. We don’t have the extremely wicked people although you’ll have some schemers. The writers did a great job. The cast played their rolls well. There were cooking scenes, fight scenes, family scenes, unity scenes and more. In truth, I loved the fact that the 2 sisters were supportive, loving. They were both fierce but good, smart women.

What I like most about this series was that it was entertaining and the relationship between or 2 leads was great. There was no crazy misunderstandings or ridiculous breakup Just development and you know the rest. It was sweet to see the love, support and loyalty. There were no overly immature characters (LOVED THIS). I really am tired of seeing this series with Married female characters who act Like they’re 13 years old. Our lead was a mature, young adult which was pleasant.


Do I recommend it? Yes, yes, yes.
Is it sweet? Yes

A must watch

My feelings are absolutely hurt right now. I wanted more episodes. The series was 59 episode which normally is enough for me but by the last two episodes were so revealing and intense that I feel like I needed more. Don’t get me wrong the ending was sweet and perfect in every sense but after all of that, me wanting more simply mean that it was just that good.

I would say for some you may get the Romeo and Juliet vibe with the sense of good and evil background however that vibe will most certainly not lead to the ending that Romeo and Juliet actually had. You will get some struggles and hardships but but the outcome is worth it. This series has so much depth and it is so darn heartfelt that you just cannot help but be sucked into it.

The male lead did not fail in any capacity in the series. His acting, his demeanor and his personality match with his appearance or perfect. He played his role well.
The female lead manage to pull up her role as well. The fact that she had to play two different personalities speaks volume about her abilities in terms of acting. She was able to shift from her sweet normal self to her strong and bold self like nobodies business. I really enjoyed her character because she had such a sense of goodness and innocence within her.
Why should you watch this? First of all, it is heartfelt. It is well written. It has so much depth to it. It tugs on so many emotions either love, loyalty, revenge, justice or hate. This series is more than just about the god of war it is really about how an individual often perceives things differently from other people and how one man’s opinion of what is right and wrong can change the world. To me, it was an eye-opener because it shows how some people do things based on their own thoughts without really knowing things and also how people tend to act based on what they think may or may not be without realizing that your actions play a part in what will actually happen. It is in every sense romantic and although there is not a lot of like romantic seems there are some but is more about love and unity and understanding which really encompasses everything. The ending was great as well. You will not be disappointed.

I watched this on Amazon however they were only 36 episodes not 40. The series is your typical war time series. Although the entire series was not surrounding the war, it was only bits of it at the end. Series surrounds one female who found her way from and unfortunate circumstance and managed to meet some really good people along the way. With the help and support she receives she was able to establish herself and really build a name for herself. Unfortunately when you build a name for yourself there’s always going to be suspicions and conspiracy.

What’s you’ll see: You will get a bit of gun fights in the series as well as fist fighting but it’s not too over-the-top. We do not have too many crazy things going on but I will tell you there was always something happening. I will be remiss if I did not mention that I did not find this series romantic at all. Although It was supposed to be about this woman and her great love for these individuals you really didn’t see it so much. So I will warn you upfront you will get it over 20 episodes of longing and not being able to be together. You will get a glimpse of happiness and it will quickly disappear. I don’t want to be a Debbie downer but I didn’t find it that romantic simply because it was mostly business with love interest on the side. I enjoyed that the female, she was strong and was able to be independent and build her name for herself. What I did not like is out of personal preference and that is the normal or cliché thing we often see which is one male doing everything for a female lead but all of our heart goes to someone else. You will get that until almost the end. That for me was kind of disheartening.

I absolutely loved episode 1. It was funny and it really set you up for an entertaining ride. The series revolves around an ambitious lawyer who is also a dreamer, I.e marry rich, own a mansion etc. all perfectly fine. Our male lead is cast as man without goals however after watching the series I disagree with synopsis.

What I liked about the series was that it showed the sacrifices some make to achieve their dreams. Some include family and love. I felt the kids were great actors and funny..

What I disliked is the female leads personality. She was judgements of everyone for nearly 70% of the series and she seemed to lack maturity/decision making skills. There was a relationship that took place that mDe no sense and it ended the same way.

Our leads never actually got together until the last 5 minutes of the last episode And even that was one of those reunited after time meetings. All I can say is “I’m glad it was short.”

If your looking for a romantic comedy/drama this is not it. I’m not sure what it is at this point, I’m not even sure what the plot is/was. It ended the same way it started.

I just realized that this series is 25 years old. I just watched it and I think it is really good. first of all, kudos to the amazing cast. I think they all did an amazing job being able to use sign language while also showing the emotions behind what they were trying to say was probably not an easy task to do it.

The series revolves around a Woman who is in theater and man who is an artist but also hearing impaired. It shows how they met and how their relationship grow overtime. What I really liked about this series Waze it showed how far the female lead was willing to go to connect to the male she was interested in. She didn’t see a hearing impaired male, she saw a man and he was sweet and stunning.

You will get a set of the difficulties in their relationships but it also shows some real world complications that anybody with experience in their relationship such as the ex-girlfriend showing back up in jealousy taking please. It just showed it from a different perspective what it looks like and how it’s communicated. Overall this series was really good. It was short and sweet. I did not give it a 10 because I felt like I didn’t get the ending that I wanted. But I could not hate it.

Before I go into the review of this series. I have to absolutely express my frustration and irritation towards the directors or those people who pick the casts. Whoever thought it was a bright idea to change the initial female lead did not do the show any favor. Rosy Zhao is a great actress but seriously. For the cast change simply to have a familiar face (maybe for publicity) I can’t give it a perfect rating especially since I feel the first actress would have been a better fit. So far Rosy Zhao has been in mostly romantic comedies. Her acting is sweet and unique but I don’t feel she was not suited for this.
They change the initial female lead due to script saying she change her appearance. First of all, there are so many shows that have characters change their appearance but actually keep their same face.
Our initial female lead is clearly a new young actress but appears to be a superb actress who did an amazing job portraying herself as a princess in every aspect. Her demeanor, appearance, character, communication and expression were flawless. I know whatever she stars in she’ll be great. .

Now to the review:
The show starts out at a really decent pace. Episode one was full of mystery and action but by episode two things somewhat slow down quite a bit and it becomes somewhat slow. What I like most so far about this series is that it appears to be about loyalty, and friendship and love. The character development was good.
WhatI did not like about the series is that at times it can be a bit slow and sometimes the male lead was just too suggestive. Fights scenes were unimpressive. The ending was cliff hanger and didn’t make sense.

If you’re looking for romantic comedy this is not it.
if you were looking for a historical drama you may like this one.
If you’re looking for a happily ever after you may not want to watch it although it is not awful.
If you’re looking for something overly romantic I don’t know what to tell you.

Overall decent show. Not a rewatch for me though.

After seeing the overall rating for the series I was honestly hesitant to watch it but after reading the synopsis I found it a bit interesting. I’ve decided to watch the series based on the synopsis and I am glad I did. The overall plot for the series is quite unique. Just the concepts alone made it fun to watch. Am I sent me that the series is somewhat slow however it is so relevant and unique that it captivate you. It’s only eight episodes but it is truthfully eight episodes of what dating looks like for those individuals they want to get married with those individuals that don’t want to get married but are being forced by others to marry or consider marriage. It also covers what it’s like for those individuals that are not so great with people skills and how they struggle to connect with other people. I know I know all of that just does not sound interesting but trust me it really is interesting. Imagine the government saying hey you’re a 26 and you’re still not married we need you to get married to help repopulate. This is not a sci-fi series or an overly politically driven series. The decision was made by the government and it shows how that decision impacted individuals lives for the better and how it somewhere in fringed upon other people.

In truth it was not overly romantic played it was somewhat deep. There were many strong elements to the series in some elements that were not so strong.

On the romantic scale I would rate this a 5 out of 10 because it really wasn’t that romantic.
On the comedy scale I would rate this a three out of 3 out of 10 because it had a few comedy moments.
On the drama scale I would rate this a 6 out of 10 because it had many elements of emotional drama than anything else.
On the action scale I would rate this a zero out of 10 because it was somewhat slow, almost melodramatic.

Overall very good concept. Very insightful and absolutely unique. Anyone that is in the dating world will put relate to this. Or anyone that has been through this cook completely understand the emotional impact of all of it. Definitely worth a watch.

I rated this series a 7 out of 10 because I honestly feel that the overall concept was unique and genuinely heartfelt. On a Nother note, the reason I did not write this hire was because I feel that the ending could have been better and it just somewhat feel incomplete almost although there was a fairly decent ending. The individual who I assume was the overall male lead seem to Connor come out of his shell what the ending for him didn’t seem as great as the ending for the other characters in I found it somewhat strange. There were also a few questions that just did not seem to get answered. Overall it was still a really great series but I assume that the length of it minimize the possibility for clear details and development along with a conclusive ending.
