This review may contain spoilers
It started amazing before the screenwriter got dizzy in the middle ?
The concept and initial plot are excellent, and as a spy drama genre it has suspense that makes us hooked to watch the next episode. +Wuxia genre makes the cinematography excellent. Thats all the PROS.
It was amazing 10/10 until about ep 16 when ziyu found out who yws is. After that revelation, the plot goes downward, unclear and like a forced light comedy ? for examples:
SPOILER alert !
1. The yws revelation was not done right, ziyu not seen/no time to get shocked, sad, etc. rather he just instantly accepted and defending yws all the time.
2. The three trials and how xiyu become instantly the best fighter were ridiculous and like jokes. Literally jokes since the younger generations all helping him to get through the trials with some unserious talks or expressions.
3. The ultimate villain and motive was very weak and not believable. How come he wanted to get the thousand flame that will kill lots lots of innocent people and make the world chaos just to get revenge for his parents? At least they should link him with the wufeng. At first i thought he is at least one of the four demons or two wufeng's devil haha..
The ultimate villain also not a story twist or shocking enough, since the they already give the clue too early.
4. The whole plot revelation was told by the ultimate villain in a very relaxed way ?
5. Sqx who was also main spy just disappear alot from middle to end episodes that i almost forget she is still in the drama ? the contrast with early episodes so big that makes it weird. Even yws role also become weaker.
6. Wufeng concept which start strong also become unclear and weak in the end. This makes the last and ultimate battle also too fast and weak.
Talking about fast, the fights in the whole series are also done so fast that we audience almost cant see anything ?
7. And many of other plot holes/unclear ones, for example about the mutan, about the writing on xiyu back etc. and again they are mostly happen after yws revelation. Its like two different scriptwriters.
8. The ending purpose also unclear and could have been better. Its not open ending, but premature ending. As alternative, for example since they introduce yws's twin suddenly in the end, they could have exchanged them (the new twin is the one who go back to gong's family) etc which can be more surprising and exciting.
Its sad how they ruin the plot from the middle to the end, and turn it from dark amazing suspenseful drama into ackward light comedy ?
So sad that makes me cant help expressing the dissapoinment
Anyway the pace of the suspense still good and enough to make us hooked and enjoy it till the end since ep16 (where the plot become a mess) already 2/3 of the whole drama.
In summary, its still a decent and beautiful suspense spy drama and worth watching. I still recommend it ?
One of the memorable quote is :
"no matter how long the night is, there will definitely be a sunrise" ?
