Is it worth watching ?
Well start is not very good as storyline was very predictable but drama gets better and better as story moves forward. I think story best starts from Episode 16 after shanggu scarifice herself and then came back or probably reincarnated. Now story is worth watching as its not very much predictable as a good drama should be. i watched trailer of episode 23 its looks brilliant. Its a 50 episode drama and drama goes at its peak at episode 23 also our main villan is still alive so its gonna be a amazing fight between damons and gods while sanggu is back and so baiju but from episode 16 some things have changed. Now shanggu is not the most powerfull one but she has not magic which makes the drama exciting. Note: there is no spoiler is this review all these content are availiable in preview and trailers.Cet avis était-il utile?
I tried but couldn't
I started watching this to get ready for The Last Immortal. I am also a big fan of Wuxia/Xuanhuan/Xianxia. I read good reviews for this series in here too. Plus add Xu Kai in this series, I got ready for binge watching this series.I am in episode 8 and I am dropping this.
The production, wardrobe, acting and plot is good. I read somewhere that the Female Lead is a multi awardee actress and excellent in emotional roles however, she seemed awkward here in my perspective. It may also be the character role itself but Xu Kai's character seems to have limited range of expression. The story for me lacks luster. It wasn't able to keep my interest.
Preference is subjective. If you have this in your queue to watch, please do give it a try because my perspective is limited to episode 8. I just couldn't continue; I couldn't finish a single episode without dozing off. Take my review with a grain of salt and do give it a try.

OH...XU KAI BUT WHY??
I understand that actors want try on something different characters, oh but why? Nothing good at all come out of it, the story line is too vague, acting is bad, fake flash visual effect, I finally dropped this. People say don't comment anything if nothing good to say, in my opinion this is the thing the production team should know about, take it as improve criticism . Xu Kai is out of character, his cute face wasn't for thousands years old God in cultivation, he's more like Shang Shu Mu (his character in Court Lady). The FL was frankly 'miscast' - she wasn't suitable for the role, her acting so so, her character isn't memorable - annoying. Too much visual effect that spoiling the actual skill of the actors....and the other guy Tian Qi sounded like Zhao Zhou Xu's dubbing voice over (WOH) it's pretty special voice - very recognizable dubbing voice over now after WOH... Ep 5 and I've already bored. First episode is always important to catch audience's interest, start with something catching will usually end dramas in a good note, and this drama lack of it.I just realized what's wrong with Xu Kai? His freaking bad job 'Hairdo', the hairline was wrong 'unnatural', the hair fashion wasn't suitable for his face. Whoever the hair stylist didn't do a good job, the stylist ruined Xu Kai's best feature.
The best part is the OST by Mao BuYi (Title: Age), Charlie ShenZhou (Title: Ju Lian), Liu Yu Ning (Title: GanYing). 3 best singers delivered the songs with deeply emotion, perfect tones, and amazing music.

Excellent Xianxia Show
Superb production. Ancient Love Drama is an epic Xianxia drama. A classic superior Chinese Historical Fantasy drama. Xu Kai is better suited for cold character. Reminds me of his role in The Legend. Zhao Dong Yu is likeable, projecting a fresh and unique goddess persona. Production set is really gorgeous. I like the development of the romance, which comes as believable and appears to be slow burn. The supporting characters especially the other male gods are very pleasing to watch as well. To those who loved Ashes of Love, this is a must watch series. I have been waiting for this type of drama to surface, and this drama is certainly a winner.Cet avis était-il utile?
Cringy and stereotyped
I picked this up because of the high rating on MDL, but it was truly a torture to get through each episode, maybe because im not into romance drama. I thought it would be like Eternal Love type of show, where theres love story and there’s action. Nope. It’s all about love baybehhh. It’s a struggle (for me!) to bear the incessant proximity moments between the two leads, which most of them don’t even make sense. There’s so many of them within the 5 episodes and it grew cringier and cringier each time that i can no longer stand it after the 5th ep. The way they fall in love was also too sudden and rushed, and maybe because im not in the ‘target age group’, the stereotype beautiful, flawless skinned men for the stonecold indifferent thousands-year-old god of war falling for the bubbly naughty trying to act cute girl kinda gets old. Nope. Not my cup of tea.If youre like me who prefer action with adorable love story interlaced in between those action, then you might wanna skip this. It’s a totally cheesy cringy love story with mediocre action (yeah its one of those shows with hands waving around spitting internal powers out while hanging and rolling and spinning on wires kind of action, not the actual fight choreograph with physical contact at all) for the first 5 ep. If youre like me, then dont waste your time on this like I did.

Not Sure How This Was Rate so High
I just couldn’t get pass the 3 episode. It was slow and boring. I only watched it because I enjoyed The Last Immortal an some reviews said to watch ALP. Disappointed on the show but I did listen to OST and it was really good. Acting was okay and for these guys that are supposed to be gods, they’re kind of childish and dumb.Cet avis était-il utile?
