why it is a waste of time?
it's not for everyone just another time taking drama with no plot no romance and the story is not well defined I think a 7 rating is also high for this
if you are a romance or mystery lover then this is not for you because there is none.
I recommend you don't waste your time or just skip and fast-forward watch this. I fully completed this in 8-9 hours with full skipping only seeing main leads engaging yep there was a good time also.........
As I sat through the torturous hours of Twilight 2023, I couldn't help but wonder if time itself had come to a standstill. This Chinese drama promised "ups and downs," but all it delivered was a never-ending barrage of clichés, laughable plot twists, and characters so one-dimensional they could have been cut from cardboard.
First and foremost, the writing was abysmal. The dialogue felt contrived and uninspired, leaving the talented cast struggling to breathe life into their roles. Each scene seemed to drag on forever, filled with cringe-worthy moments of forced emotion and unnecessary melodrama. The "ups" in this drama were so few and far between that they were overshadowed by the excruciatingly long "downs."
Moreover, the plot was an incomprehensible mess. It attempted to juggle multiple storylines, each more convoluted than the last. From the star-crossed lovers with a "forbidden love" trope to the amnesia-stricken protagonist who conveniently regained her memory at precisely the right moment, every plot device screamed of lazy writing. The twists and turns lacked any sense of subtlety, leaving the audience feeling manipulated rather than entertained.
As for the characters, they were woefully underdeveloped. The male lead, a brooding and aloof CEO, was a cookie-cutter archetype we've seen countless times before. He lacked any depth or growth throughout the series, making it impossible to invest in his journey. The female lead, on the other hand, was portrayed as a damsel in distress, constantly relying on the male lead to save her from her own misfortunes. This regressive portrayal of women was infuriating and did a disservice to the talented actress portraying the character.
To add insult to injury, the production value of Twilight 2023 was lackluster at best. The set designs were unimaginative, with most scenes taking place in predictable locations like lavish penthouses and picturesque gardens. The costume choices were equally uninspired, doing little to enhance the characters' personalities or the overall atmosphere of the drama. Even the soundtrack failed to evoke any emotion, becoming a forgettable backdrop to an already forgettable experience.
Perhaps the most frustrating aspect of Twilight 2023 was its refusal to learn from its mistakes. As the episodes dragged on, it became evident that the creators were determined to stretch the storyline far beyond its limits. Unnecessary filler episodes plagued the drama, contributing nothing to the overall narrative and leaving viewers desperate for the inevitable conclusion.
In conclusion, Twilight 2023 was a trainwreck of a Chinese drama that failed to live up to its promise of "ups and downs." It stumbled through a poorly written plot, lackluster characters, and subpar production value, leaving audiences begging for mercy. If you value your time and sanity, I implore you to steer clear of this melodramatic mess. There are plenty of other quality dramas out there worth investing your emotions in – this is not one of them.
