8/10
Very enjoyable for the most part
4 November 2021
Really cheesy soapy Fantasy love-story, but hell, it's perfect for some escapism, forget all these boring shows that look like today's reality. The sets, costumes and camera work in this are amazing, the acting is half-decent or better from most of the cast (Xiao Yan / Green Snake is really seriously good) and the story is super cheesy and soapy, but it's definitely enjoyable, especially if you watch it as a winter season "fireside" story.

It starts out very romantic and you think you know where it's going to end up, but it gets pretty weird toward the end and a lot of absurd things happen very fast that I didn't expect. But you know what, despite this strange rushed ending I was still left with intense nostalgia about this show, so I expect to want to re-watch it someday.
