Plan de resurrección

The Resurrected is a visual and emotional standout.

The production design is subtle but immersive-every frame feels intentional, every location perfectly chosen to reflect the story's quiet intensity.

The casting is spot-on. Shu Qi commands the screen with calm authority, Fu Mengbo carries deep emotion beneath silence, and Patrick Nattawat adds vulnerability and spark. Even the supporting roles are delivered with nuance.

The writing is sharp, restrained, and confident-it doesn't over-explain and trusts the viewer to connect the dots. Every pause, glance, and line matters.

Why is this so underrated?!! More people should watch this show. The script is really good, it is unlike most of the shows that I have watched, it actually feels fresh. It includes having supernatural forces, violence, scam gangs and ultimately revenge. It was intense and I couldn't stop binging through all the episodes.

It was honestly worth the watch. I'm very particular about the things I watch. If it's boring I tend to turn it off and never finish it. But I binge watched this all in one night. Finished it at 7 am. I won't give any spoilers, but it was very entertaining and did leave me with so many questions. It makes me wonder if there will be a season 2. Every actor and actress was 100/100 in this. I hope more people watch this!

This is my first time watching a Chinese drama and I can say I'm impressed... but not too much by this series.

The story is not usual, it leans more towards fantasy and supernatural stuff but it still follows the same pattern revenge stories usually follow and even though it started slow, it got better in the middle however, ridiculous by the end.

Yeah, I didn't like the two last episodes, It was too rushed with too many plot holes, they tried to like make plot twists but It didn't work out for them so they're apparently doing a season 2 out of this which I'm not really interested to watch it if it came out.

Aside from that, i liked the acting, the visuals, the music and taking into consideration it was my first experience with Chinese drama so a 7/10 is a reasonable rating. It could've been a 8 or even 9 if they didn't rush and ruined the ending but what can i say.

I like revenge flicks, not so much because of their supposedly-empowering amorality, but because they tend to turn the tables, making the protagonists responsible for the plot, rather than its victims. The Resurected is a surprising entry in this genre, largely non-fantastic despite its title and very general premise, but making up for it with brutal characters and scenes. It is fairly fast-paced and packed with so many plot twists, that we might as well forgive those that are a bit 'tirés par les cheveux'.

It reminded me of The Glory (I don't watch much East Asian TV so forgive the perhaps facile parallel). It has the same quality: an ambitiously intricate plot relying on a limited cast of characters. It also has some of the same draw back, namely flat characters, and a number of glaring plot holes, and an uneven rhythm (very slow start accelerating into absurdity toward the end). Here the writing team has tried to balance the rhythm with some flashbacks, but this not entirely successful. Except for Chao Chin, the characters one-dimensional, but are partly redeemed by the performance of Angelic Lee and Shu Qi. Like The Glory, there's also an unhealthy ambivalence toward the lifestyle of the rich and beautiful, which they try to pass as social criticism but is largely voyeurism.
