It’s unfortunate that director Guo Jing Ming has such a own vision on all his works and presents it regardless of how it may be received by the broader audience. My Journey to You was just okay but Fangs of Fortune was a flop, it was too over-the-top in presentation and the slow burn story did no wonders in roping … Continue reading →

After the unexpected hit that … Continue reading →

If I were a professor I would absolutely be an easy grader. If you try hard sincerely and the output shows that effort I would acknowledge it, in that sense I’m not very black/white in life or in entertainment offerings. I’ve liked plenty of objectively bad movies and dramas because I enjoyed certain elements of it enough to overlook the … Continue reading →

In this case there … Continue reading →
