Xue zhong han dao xing (2021)
More than you think
The characters are all very like-able. The story continues to grow, each new character adds a new element and layer to the overall storyline. The humor is sweet and the romantic element develops with the story until everything falls into place. Definitely needs another season.
I have rewatched this series a few times, and it is probably in my top ten of Chinese historical fiction.
The costumes are great, and the locations are really great too, the musical score lens to the drama.
Despite the occasional obviously over dramatic scenes, Sword Snow Stride hits the mark as a very watchable series, with a genuine need for more of the same.
Da bing xiao jiang (2010)
Worth a watch
As an Aussie, I have found a solid appreciation for Asian historical drama, of course I've seen many of Jackie Chan's Hollywood films, and having watched several TV series and movies on Chinese Dynasties.
I appreciated the connection between this movies characters and real history. No that they are all (some are) actually real historical figures, but the honest intensity of kill or be killed, I'm sure was as real as the never ending wars and conflicts in people's every day lives even now.
I enjoyed the main characters, and found the story to have an evolving narrative, that as I watched I gained more appreciation to see it to the end. More like this would be good.
Manjianghong (2023)
Likable and interesting
I found Full River Red really good to watch, it took a little while to start, but once the rhythm picked up, it was very interesting to watch.
A murder mystery that isn't the real story, why and how are never completely clear, each answer just leads to more questions.
The steam punk sound track gave it a nice edge that I liked, blending well with the pace of the story and cinematography.
The main characters developed into worthwhile villains and heroes, with multiple twists to be followed to keep up.
It would help to understand the characters and story line if you have some cultural and historical knowledge.
Teen Wolf: The Movie (2023)
There's a new wolf in town.
I enjoyed Teen Wolf: The Movie, cause I got what I expected from it. I did miss Dylan O'Brien but I'm hoping there will be a new Teen Wolf TV series with Vince Mattis playing Eli Hale.
Then Stiles can do a cameo please. Nothing wrong with a little light hearted Teen Wolf.
The potential for a new generation of teens is huge and always room for unexpected surprises, maybe we'll even get to meet Greenberg one day.
Plenty of room to introduce some fresh storylines and new faces that may be the next big thing. In any event, like I said I was happy with a look at the original cast and more about what they have been up to.
Naui Nara (2019)
Based on historical Korean period of transition between Goryeo to Joseon
My country the new age is a beautiful story of love, friendship and betrayal. Beautifully filmed and beautifully written, the characters in this epic kDrama set during the period of transition between Goryeo and Joseon dynasty. A story of political unrest, war and social injustice, also showing plenty of humor. The development of the characters is heartening to see, as even the villains are worth admiring.
Currently available on Netflix 'My Country The New Age' is well worth watching to experience a KDrama at its best.

EPIC MUST SEE
As an Aussie I have been watching Kdrama & Chinese drama (Historical) (subtitles) for a few years, I have always favored historical over modern shows but enjoy all.
Arthdal is one of the best epic stories I have seen, telling a story of the time of early Homo Sapien. The first series of 18 episodes brings to life the characters of the story story as ancient as time itself, love, deception, bravery and betrayal, the fight for life itself.
Arthdal has been compared to GoT, this comparison can be seen as both are epic stories, with strong characters and tales of life, otherwise they are nothing alike.
If you have never watched a Kdrama or Chinese historical drama before, I recommend you watch Arthdal Chronicles. Currently available on Netflix, once watched, you to will see and experience the pleasure of watching this riveting 'EPIC MUST SEE' Kdrama.
