Reviews:

fantasy and melodrama
I came across this flick because it was sold new on 3D for only 5 Euro’s and not having any problems with Asian flicks and liking the story I was eager to watch it. I’m glad I did because I liked it.

I knew from before that this was going to be a pure Chinese flick, in which I mean acting, story and score. That said that means that a lot of fantasy geeks will leave this for what it is because they can’t catch up with the Chinese/Asian feeling.

The CGI used was also a problem for many but again I didn’t had any trouble with it. I agree that some CGI really looked cheap but it fits perfectly in this slow moving love story. But the fight scene’s make it watchable and the erotic feeling between the princess and the demon in the bath also makes it watchable. There’s no nudity to spot but the scene does give it an lesbian, erotic touch. Not only that, the acting also is sublime what makes this more watchable.

But at the end, if you can’t understand Asian horror or fantasy then leave this for what it is but if you are open minded for some melodrama then this is your stuff, no go eat those azaleas…

Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 4/5 Story 3,5/5 Comedy 0/5

Basically a replica of Hua pi 2008
And with the same main cast. The plot is almost identical, same actor and actress casted in a very similar love relationship and the demon tried to mingle in between them, ultimately making the sacrifice (though the ending is different from the first). There is however literally nothing new to see here except with the addition of extra CGI and more cost heavy battle scenes, which at parts were totally unnecessary and did not add much to the overall depth of the plot.

You can get a decent kick out of them if you watch it now and then. But nothing ground breaking.
