Seriously, this was a mess. The first 10 episodes were FANTASTIC. They clearly had a big budget to spend. How the tomb looked, the leather figures, the village of the mute - it was stunning. BEAUTIFUL. The action scenes were great, the suspense unreal, and the chemistry between the "iron triangle" was very enjoyable. They had some emotional and dramatic scenes that really got to me. I was in awe and had the time of my life. So what happened? The series changed completely. The remaining 20 episodes take place in a boring looking warehouse. They had some budget left for the ceiling of this infamous warehouse, but that was it. The chemistry between Mr. Fatty and Wu Xei was really touching, but then their storylines went in completely different directions. Wu Xei spends his time with a tomboy, a very annoying and cringy woman, especially when she tries to act cute, and Mr. Fatty becomes the sugar daddy of a divorced boring woman with a child. I watched it to the end for the mystery, but the series tone (adventurous, exciting, suspenseful, beautiful looking) completely changed after the first 10 episodes. On a side note: I know that people ship Wu Xie and Zhang Qi Ling. The title of the series "Reunion" suggested that the iron triangle reunites, but even when they were in the tomb, they got separated. Those guys had maybe 15 minutes of screentime together. And later on the character completely vanished again. Why even put him in the opening credits? Such a waste ...
