Shang Yang Fu

First off, Yiwei Zhou was the roof that kept this contained, Zhang Ziyi was the foundation and the other actors were blocks that built life into this incredible story. ZY's performance was transcendental. Geezus, the man is gorgeous. I don't even know what to say but I can tell you that this series will blow your mind.

Shout out to the cast, crew and members of the production team, especially the casting director.

Lastly, the MUSIC!! Goodness, my heart melted every time I heard the intro score.

The plot is really impressive and the cast is totally appropriate with the characters. They talk about Zhang Ziyi's age a lot but to me, she perfectly reincarnates Wang Xuan and she looks really really young and beautiful in her 40s so it seems negligible for me about her age. And nonetheless, the appearance of Zhou Yiwei also entirely fit with Xiao Qi, a really charismatic and righteous-looking character. I would rate this 10/10, I just wish they could develope more of the storyline in the end. The end is just too short and I wish I could enjoy it more.

Finally geisha ziyi zhang did a 64 episodes film production drama, what a treat from her, one of the best production, makeup dresses camera production are all world class film term, really great performance from her, a must watch if you into Asian history drama.

Ziyi Zhang's performance was extraordinarily fine, the best I have ever seen by any actress in any film, movie, or series of any kind in my lifetime of 77 years... The Chinese dramatic television series, "Shang Yang Fu" (The Rebel Princess), encompasses 68 distinctive episodes of 45 minutes each... Ziyi Zhang's performance throughout this spectacular series was truly exceptional in every way, a genuine priceless work of art, a gracious gift to anyone who's ever wished to see such nuanced artistry performed at the highest levels imaginable, most memorable and destined to become cherished, forever...

A+... 10 Stars x 10 Stars to the exponential power of 10, ad infinitum...

As a film student, i love this film- good story, cinematography is like from the book, audio and music is amazing, excellent direction, costumes and the whole set and staging were impressive, excellent acting and perfect selection of actors- not the usual perfect/good looking mold of actor. Zhang Ziyi is of course simple and beautiful, while Zhou Yiwei is manly and very charming in his character. This drama should be on Netflix! Also, I dont mind buying a copy of this drama and the English translated novel. It is that good.
