The Ghost Bride

This series has some strong points: the dead-living interactions and the interesting and refreshing historical setting (not Victorian England for once lol). For a teen series it's perfect but a more adult public may not enjoy it to the fullest since the the plot doesn't always make sense and some characters are clearly meant to appeal younger people.

If you read the book, this adaptation will disappoint you. As someone from the Baba nyonya culture, I felt that the series isn't an authentic representation; though, I'll give them credit for attempting to include a few elements here and there. I tried to watch the series as something separate from its source material but I still don't enjoy it. The ending is so cheesy.

Ironically, the only one I'm rooting for in this series is Tian Ching.

I don't know why this has such a low rating. I found this to be a very enjoyable Fantasy. Acting, cinematography and story were all first rate. I thought the actor who played Er Lang, the Heavenly Guard stole the show.

I hope it was so much more. I don't know the book, but the trailer was promising. It never gets to suspenseful. I wasn't fully engaged to the characters. I wish I was.

I do like the beautiful sceneries of the countryside and the underworld was also well done. The wardrobes were also nice. The daring costumes from Tiang Ching, the colorful traditional Chinese "Qi Po" of the issued, Li Lan's black dressed and the sophisticated western dresses of Isabelle. There were some scenes which was with mr. Wong which were kinda scary.

Funny there was some Cantonese spoken in some scenes. Average series, don't expect too much, watch it for fun.

The plot was well written with action ans romance that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Would definitely recommend it.
