What a surprise. It is a good movie
I watched it out of boredom at night at Youku.I was surprised that this movie is quite a good movie. Although, I knew none of the actors.
I have to praise the story line & directing. Very well-done.
Storyline is nicely paced. Straight forward, not boring & easy to follow.
The CGI is extremely good. Beat my expectation.
The casts are also good. Especially the actress who played Meng-Po.
Worth my 1.5hours to watch this movie. Recommended.

Mix-feeling. Great casting but poor storyline.
The casts are great but Storyline dip after Ep.30 or something.I watched it because of Dilraba. I really like Dilraba’s act as Ren Anle’s character. Really bold.
Di Ziyuan character is quite boring but the actress who played the fake Di Zi Yuan is actually good.
Prince Han Ye: I think Gong Jun hit a jackpot with this character. Han Ye is a boring character but I like Gong Jun’s act here. Somehow it fits.
I enjoyed watching Ren Anle’s teasing Han Ye. The scenes are extremely adorable.
The actress who played Anning should be praised.
Supporting roles like the Eunuch, servants in palace, ministers, Emperor & Empress Dowager are all good in acting.
The most regretful thing about this drama, the storyline did not progress well after excellent few episodes.
Despite of the talented acting of its casts, they can’t save the poor story-line.

Masterpiece, Genius Story & Revolutionary
Wow! I just finished watching this series.I watched Gong Jun in Legend of Anle with Dilraba. (You guessed it right, I watched Legend of Anle because of Dilraba. But I’m very curious about Gong Jun whom I never heard off - played the boring character, Prince Han Ye quite well).
First, I was a bit reluctant to watch this drama. Although, it’s recommended to watch, I’m not fond of BL genre. However, this drama is not a BL or romance drama. It’s about soulmates and brotherhood. Some scenes between the 2 ML are daring but not over the line. Still acceptable for me to continue watching.
Story - The scriptwriter is a genius! The plot is masterpiece - unpredictable & surprising. Only ep. 24&25 are boring but luckily the plot pick-up again until the end. The words used by actors are spot on. Characters’ development are progressing good even for minor character that I have forgotten at the beginning of the drama. I like that as a viewer, I also have questions about the plot, and the conversation between the characters put that questions in acting. Very well-done. I thought I live in the drama itself.
Scenes - Excellent! This drama did not suffers excessive CG effects. Good to see natural light scenes. The director is doing a great job to connect the scenes beautifully. I love all the fighting scenes - intriguing.
Acting/Cast - Gong Jun plays Wen Ke Xing extremely well. I described the character as: mysterious, cunning, elegance, manly yet sissy. Confused? Me too. I applaud Gong Jun to be able to deliver dual personality & when I watched Gong Jun expressions, I can’t predict what Wen Ke Xing will do next or think because Gong Jun is really good at making ambiguous expression (like I don’t know he will turn left or right or go straight unless the dialogue & action shows that). How can he become so sissy yet very manly ?- good job Gong Jun.
Zhang Ze Han also plays the Zhao Zhishu cooly. Heartless leader and the he went through character development that progress well.
Other supporting roles are doing good but some can be improved like Cao Weining & Gao Xiaolian.
Music - the OST from Liu Yuning fits the drama really well.
No spoilers. You should watch it. Great that I didn’t let the BL reviews stopping me from watching it. Good job to the production & cast of this drama. Whoever casts Gong Jun & Zhang Ze Han has great eye for talents.

What can I say. Excellent story line, directing, casting. The characters development are well-done.None of the 40 episodes is boring. Which is quite an achievement by itself.
No excessive romantic scenes.
Great acting from Dilraba, Leo Wu, Yuning & Zhao Lusi. Even the supporting roles are doing great acting.
Dilraba is so cool as Li Changge.
But the charm of this drama is Leo Wu’s acting. He delivered that maturity aura despite his young age during filming. If I didn’t know his real age, I would have thought that he actually few years older from Dilraba.
The actor who played Khan is exceptional - I pity him, his character is not easy ?. The actress who played Khatun is also excellent.
Worth my time. Recommended.
