La Sorcière blanche

The legend of Mi Yue can be criticised for not being very accurate but as an enjoyable story it hits the spot. Plot is sometimes slow and stilted but it did manage to retain my interest enough to want to watch the entire story. Bottom line is that there are better dramas out there but this one isn't as bad as a lot of people seem to think.

With increased irritation, I'm trudging through this dense and boring historical drama hoping something remotely interesting happens, however, it's taking for-fu@king-ver to get plot advancement. It doesn't help that I seem to have developed an intense dislike for, Sun Li, the lead actress who- with all apologies- can't act her way out of a paper bag. I'm sorry but Ms Li's acting is the same in every period drama she's been in. She always does a doe-eyed ingénue who, despite being unfairly treated, goes through life singing kumbaya and has never met a potential enemy she didn't love. Also, she looked her age- mid 30s- and was hardly convincing as some teenager...the men were all old as well. Seriously, who wrote this screenplay? Sigh.

I'll give it a dozen more episodes to see if the pacing and story development move faster otherwise it goes in the dropped category pronto.

Well, as a Chinese, I have to say this soap opera is just a little more than rubbish. So, if you are not extremely boring, please do not watch it. I really mean it.Most of Chinese audience do not think this one is of good value. The drama is slow and boring, and plots in it is of no logic. And the dresses in it is totally a disaster. I wonder where have they spent all the budget of this drama. Ohh my God! And the spirits of this one is really not noble. I do not want the others to believe that Chinese people are like that,(we are better than the ones in this opera). If you are interested in the culture of China, I recommend you to watch other Chinese drama, called Nirvana in Fire. That one is really of good quality. In fact in Nirvana in Fire, every scene is fantastic and eye-catching. More importantly, that drama is really worth the time you spend on. To sum up, please cherish your time, from avoiding the legend of Miyue

I think I prefer to name the title of this Chiese TV series as "The legend of Mi Yue". Mi Yue, she is the most outstanding female politician in Chinese history. She is a legend. She has made a great contribution to the unification of China in two thousand years ago. This TV series has received rave reviews in Mainland China. I am very fond of Mi Yue Zhuan and I haven't seen such a marvelous story in a long time . This TV series as great entertainment with its colorful cast and numerous plot twists. The characters in this TV series are vivid. It is the best TV series in 2015 in China. My friends fond of it too. Yes, there are 81parts, it is fairly long, but the beautiful scenes and impressive dialogue really held the audience's attention.

If you have a love for Chinese history, please go to watch this TV series. It will touch your heart.

Makes me interested in the the warring period of China where so many interesting events came about. It is the 2nd chinese historical drama i watched and loved since 3 kingdoms.
