10,000 Miles (2016)

This movie scenery and cinemagraphy was very beautiful and eye pleasing. And made watching more pleasing.

Story:
Movie and the leader character Kevin Fang, played by Huang Sean already from the start caught my attention and I think it’s mostly because of action scene.
The struggle characters had to face made me sympathize with them and feel their pain and hope they will get better soon. Later on story turned into very emotional one.

Acting/ Cast/Characters:
I liked how Kevin Fang didn’t stop believing himself and tried to prove others wrong and that it is okay to chase your goals. There sure was some scenes when the act was too much but they didn’t make any problems watching the movie.
His brother Sean Fang who is played by Darren Wang at first was annoying but later on he shows his protective and brother complex, if you could say. Darren Wang showed very well all the emotions character could have felt in all the scenes.
Sean Fang girlfriend on other hand was so annoying. She was very winey and saw a problem in everything Sean Fang did when all he wanted to do is make her feel happy.
Chemestry between Kevin Fang and Yi Qing (played by Lai Megan,on my opinion was very good. In some places it was strained.

A great story to know during a drama slump

This show is nothing special but deserve to be continued to the end after a great moment of last drama watched.
If you like the genre drama of pursuing dreams, coach/trainee relationship and nice leads supporting each others then it is the one.
I think the story carry some of social issues about how one living in poverty, overcoming all the difficulties to reach his goal is the best I have seen embodied in this show.
Being bullied is such a terrible feeling in one wanting to prove his skills to be a great runner with the help of the one who is supporting from her deep heart but carrying a deep secret about her illness.
The male lead is so impressed by the achievements of female lead and want to continue running with no boundaries to the end.
Reaching the goal as a great runner in marathon what I the most like about it but THE END was a bit disappointing for me, rather I would like to give it a more valuable rating.
Though the end can be in another way written, overall is not bad and greatly filmed and acted.
Note: The difference in the length of leads is not that defective but make it interesting in opposition of what other dramas used to have.
