We love Jin Yong's LOCH novel since it is beautifully portrayed. However this adaptation change the storyline and the plot so much not following the original novel's. theteforr you should not use the title LOCH as er hope to see a Jin Yong's not a false adaptation.

I have watched all version of the Legend of the Condor Heroes, but I liked this version the most. Huang Rong is pretty cute.

Cons: some storylines don't make sense, too much departure from original book, not as loyal translated as the 2003 remake. I also have to appreciate 2003 remake for overall acting and scenes... Though including classic 85 theme 'Tie Xue Dan xin', still too lazy to pass without any new theme songs.
Pro: compared to 2003 remake, improved kongfu fighting scenes, as well as CG processed beauty setting, everything looks neat and shining! Of course, the most handsome Huang Yaoshi of Peach Blossom Island.
Actually none of those remakes are perfect to match legend of the original novel. I personally prefer 2003 remake despite a little room for improvement.
I'm not the type that always prefers the old to the new. I quite embrace new versions. However, this rendition of Condor Heroes was a waste of my life. No depth in conversations, very annoying acting. They cut out alot of lore and background, so I doubt this is a good watch for those new to the Condor Heroes franchise. The sad fact is that this drama focused completely on CGI and action scenes but skipped EVERYTHING else. There are however even faults with the action scenes! For a Martial Arts film, all it did for every episode was fist fights... All the types of martial arts, and focus on skills and training were thrown out of the window. Basically everyone more or less fought the same, taking away the fun of watching each style of martial art being represented. Nice sceneries and backgrounds were its only saving grace. If not this would have been 1/10.

To be honest, I watched this because Li Yitong was in it. As expected, she is indeed the picture perfect of Huang Rong! Beautiful, fun, smart, fierce and less annoying. She's adorably cute and has amazing smile!!! I have been watching many version of the Legend of the Condor Heroes before and after the year of 2000, I do enjoy watching this 2017 version of the Legend of the Condor Heroes the most. Perhaps this is the best one so far. Moreover, leading casts were both very good looking and had more natural acting; and the cinematography were also commendable. But why I sensed that this wasn't Li Yitong's real voice? Anyway, whoever voice was it, she's still beautiful and talented actress :-) I recommend to watch her other dramas such as Royal Nirvana and Royal Nirvana Special, and the upcoming Legend of Rosy Cloud, Hero Legend and Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Wang Quan 👍
