The film restores the original work to a relatively high degree; a good masterpiece can be remade to rotten , although not the same, but each has its own merits.

    #Jingjinger just loves to watch movies# The overall feeling of the movie is not bad, but the plot in the middle is a bit jumpy~~ I deleted some connecting plots in the novel, I can't understand it a bit. . . . I checked the plot of the novel, and I feel that the discrepancy is a bit big. Is it because the female lead is ambiguous, or it was originally an adaptation. . .

The extra points for scenes and makeup were deducted from the overall situation.

    Pip: I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sorry for anything that brings you sorrow.
