I just finished this today. ! Yey! ?

I finall gave this drama a shot despite the heavy bad reviews and comments. I mean of course everyone is entitled to their opinion. If you are not the historical period type then skip this. If you don't like seeing violence, blood and death then skip this. If you have a frail heart and could not take how everyone is plotting to kill each other then skip this.
If you like watching beautiful chinese traditional battle scenes with war horses, drums and chariots then watch now. If you enjoy intricate storylines and scheming villains then watch this. If you are a crazy romantic who loves the "one woman man guy" definitely start watching now.
Binged watched for 3 days straight due to quarantine.
hahaha I always do love battle scene dramas and I love how scheming everyone was. My mind always gets excited with Art-of-War Tactics.

Okay so there are lapses on this drama, like there are scenes you can't bear to watch (then skip it hahahaha) and are really really boring. There are also characters that are totally annoying. As an avid kdrama cdrama jdrama fan, there are some scenes which are really predictable. LOL trust me, if you have watched kdrama cdrama and jdramas for too long, this is nothing special. ?
I was touch by how beautiful it was strategically made.
Their selfless love for one another. Their hell bent trust and their courage even when facing death. I love how pretty both the female and male costumes are made. I always did admired historical fight scenes in different locations. Though I know most of it are CGI or green screen effect and may need a little more editing, but still the crew made it possible to be amazing. Congrats

I love the entire cast they fitted their roles well, however I would have wished a FL that would express more. Don't get me wrong, I like Angelababy but no matter what her expressions were, theny seem to be lacking. Unless there would be tears running down her cheeks I would not understand if she is hurt, angry or annoyed. Ohh well prolly due to too much botox. lol

Now on to the ML. Many finds him unattractive but lemme tell you, don't let William's looks fool you, he will charm you all throughout with his love and devotion. His cleverness will trap you. You might wanted someone else in mind for his role but his maturity suited his part well.

P.S. The OSTs are on point in evey scene.
I would definitely recommend this drama for those who love romance in war scenes.
