Ancient Love Poetry

My favorite movie of summer 2021. I have watched it over and over 10 times, each time amused by a new discovery about movies.

It was my third Chinese and fantasy drama, without looking at the trailer or knowing what it was about, I only watched it for Xu Kai an actor who had impressed me in one of his projects (Arsenal Military Academy) from the first moment I was impressed by the scenery and the effects, the acting of the characters, the little jokes, the scenes loaded with a lot of emotion, it is incredible how all the actors can catch you with just their eyes.

I have seen the drama 4 times and I always find interesting details, I wish that time passes to watch it again and enjoy it as if it were the first time, I highly recommend it, I hope you enjoy it without prejudice, bad comments can be made by anyone, all those who criticize haven't seen this drama or they only criticize it 'cause their favorite actor is not here, but if you are that kind of person who looks for art and you don't criticize just to believe you are important, but you want to find a drama that makes you laugh, cry and feel angry, this drama is for you, you will feel it to the bone.

Is not just love between 2 lover or the main lead even though is a huge part of this drama. Is a very touching &highly recommended drama because it has great message and values in many of the characters. Love that one can destruct everything or ugly one poison with jealousy yet theres love that protect and give everything not just between couples but the master disciple , master servant , father daughter love are all so beautiful, unconditional thats heart wrenching, not stupid but understandable & touching

Actors actress are superb acting, CGI, OST are good , i cant get over the theme songs.

It also shows character growth the young playful Chief God to the great leader that unites all, Icy Bai Que to the man able to express himself.

It also portray a great great message of power& responsibility. Power come with huge responsibility , everything is fair and will come around no matter how rich, high or low status quo, like Wu huan , Gu jun, Mu guang, Shang Gu , ZaoEr.

SG step up n never deny her responsibility in time of need, she did not blame fate or any1 A never grateful maid end up destroying all she ever had. GJ who stayed true n loyal it might not be agreeable the decision the ML acted alone but still understandable Overall is a beautiful drama, of the best Xanxia in par to great one like 10miles , pillow dream.

I really enjoyed the series Ancient Love Poetry. The slot story is amazing, the CGI are beautiful, and the actors' acting are very good.

The story made me feel very touched about love story of Bai Jue and Shang Gu. He has secretly loved and protected her for 60,000 years. He just wants her to have a peaceful and happy life even though he has to accept many sacrifices.

The film also showed me Shang Gu's growth journey, from a mischievous, carefree God to a responsible person who knows how to protect the peace of the 3 worlds. Shang Gu's love for Bai Jue is very pure and very deep. Her simple dream is to be able to join Bai Jue every day to practice swords, drinking and fly kites. That love touched me because it was so simple, sweet and painful.

Xukai and Zhou Dongyu had impressive performances. I cried and laughed together with their stories. The actors really worked hard and made an effort to create an excellent work.

I recommend everyone to watch this series, it's really great!

First thing first, I'd like to show my biggest appreciation to the writer/s who gave the role of Shang Gu and Bai Jue to Zhou Dongyu and Xu Kai. They both portrayed their characters successfully and I give them my enormous respect for that. In the first few episodes, I was a bit reluctant to continue watching the series since I could not find the chemistry between the two of them. However, I pushed myself to continue it and by the time I reached episodes 20 above I got myself hooked on it once again. And that's basically the success of Zhou Dongyu and Xu Kai as each of them played two characters (Shang Gu/ Hou Chi) and (Bai Jue/ Qing Mu).

This was my first time watching Zhou Dongyu and I must say I like her a lot as she could express her sadness with her eyes only. Her chemistry with Xu Kai was also on point and I hope they both could work together again in the future. Another thing that I like most in this series is the soft colour combinations in each costume. They did not need to use complicated accessories to match up the costume, the simplicity itself makes the costumes look attractive and elegant. I just love to see Xu Kai in all costumes he's wearing here. He looked very charming as well as handsome on all of them.

Overall, if you are a fan of Chinese Wuxia or Xianxia series, "Ancient Love Poetry" is something you definitely can't miss. I believe you all will enjoy it. Thumbs up!! Cheers!!
