I've always had kind of a love hate relationship with Chinese historical BLs. Some are genuinely excellent, but then there are others that cram in so much plot that keeping track of all the layers of betrayal and scheming gets exhausting, and I end up checking out mentally. Part of the issue is also just how much content is out there in this space, so something really has to stand out to keep me hooked. In this case, the production value is genuinely impressive, top tier stuff, but story wise, I just couldn't bring myself to actually care about these characters. There's a ton of political scheming and backstage manipulation running throughout. Somewhere in the middle of all that chaos, a hostage ends up falling for his own Prince Charming. The show runs eight episodes, each around 50 to 60 minutes long. After spending three years guarding the border, Fifth Prince Yin Qi gets called back to the capital because of a secret letter, only to end up walking straight into a deadly...
One more movie gets added to the crappy movies that have been made and i have been stupid enough to waste my time to watch them and review. This is not per say a gay movie but every single scene in the film screams homoerotic what with continuous display of hot naked male guys and their ass and bodies on full display.
The plot of the movie is paper thin. There is a frat house. New and sexy guys keep coming into that house, keep walking around in their underwear and a masked killer keeps murdering them. Trust me, literally this is exactly what happens over and over again. The final revelation as to who is doing this dastardly deed and why is worse than anything else. i mean there is no single reason why anyone would wanna watch this movie at all. There is absolutely nothing at all, unless of course watching hot guys in their underwear is your thing. For sure there is plenty of that here. Other than that the film is not sexy, not erotic, no horror, no nothing. I really hope no money was spent on making this film because whoever invested that money has to be the most dumb person ever.
I mean, come on, at least give us a plot, even if you are going to do a poor execution of it. (0/10)
