Fun and surprisingly addictive
It took me a few episodes to warm up to this one, but it really is a fun ride (even if it meanders a little) and it has great rewatch value. Yes, it’s corny at times. Yes, some of the acting is weak. However, the storyline(s) is enjoyable, the writing is engaging, and the Iron Triangle have great chemistry—especially Wu Xie and Pangzi, which is so nice to see. It would have been awesome to have more Zhang Qilin in the mix, but when he is there it is evident how much he brings the Iron Triangle, which is of course how it should be. All in all, it might have the budget or perfect acting of Reboot, but it definitely contains the next-best onscreen Iron Triangle.
