There is not much intrigue in the palace fighting drama

The plot is so simplistic that at every step you can imagine what will happen next. For the audience who are used to seeing Gong Dou's omnipotent Gong Dou drama, this dispute is too simple. Unlike us, if you are not careful, your life will be lost.

The difference is that the queen is gay, we have emperors in history who liked this, but we don't shoot this.

The palace sets, costumes and props are first-class, but the benefits are just that.

Of course, Vichy and Shizuo are still very good, especially Shishi, the performance is very good. If it weren't for the strength of a few actresses, the whole film would be weak.

    81/100 For me, this movie talks about one thing: how people lose precious "things" step by step without knowing it. Lance Moss once again demonstrated his unique and precise approach to tragedy, and the entire premise is more mature and refined than previous works. The last scene, even when credits appeared, continued to reverberate in my mind, especially sad.

    Fun is more important than meaningful. The quirky soundtrack, the gorgeous costumes, and the comical performances have already killed people. A sluggish queen who wants to sleep with her lewdly. An iron man, when jealous, he lifts his neck and pushes people against the wall. A little fairy, no matter how powerful you are, I can climb into bed and get what I want. Don't dare to write like this in humanities. Good Chihime.
