"A" for Storyline and Production, "B" for Bromance!

A quote that reminds of Po Xiao and Feng Ren’s relationship is from The Book of Zhuang Zi, written by writer and Daoist philosopher of the Zhuang Zi (c. 369-286 BC) from the Warring States period: "君子之交淡如水," translated as "a gentleman’s friendship is as clear / light as water, meaning that gentlemen maintain relations with those who share the same ideals as them. As the quote suggests, such relationships are light and pure as water, with both parties sharing a sense of unyielding loyalty towards one another.

For a 37 min movie, you’d typically expect an awkwardly paced, rushed, or even poorly executed plot. However, the story didn’t feel forcibly "condensed," and actually made sense. Additionally, the flow of events was nice and the cinematography was top-notch, despite its budget. The movie also had some pretty awesome action scenes with fluid choreography.

In addition, the two leads had great chemistry and characterization was done very well. Surprisingly, the plot managed to pack some unexpected twists under its belt and was rather melodramatic at times too . Also, the dramas pacing was done very well, didn’t feel rushed, and the plot was executed flawlessly.

All in all, fans of wuxia and bromance mustn’t skimp out on this!
