Gods as stupid as commoners, ridiculous storyline

I've tried my best to watch this drama but I really can't go on ! Those Gods who are supposed to be GODS are just stupid or childish, what a nonsense ! Sorry, I can't take it. Characters are just cliché and I can't see any interest in the story which seems very stereotypal to me.
Further more, I had great expectations with the lead actors but there is no chemistry between Xu Kai and Zhou Dong Yu whose characters are meant to be in love.
Xu Kai's acting is terrible in here, no great acting at all ! Being handsome isn't enough.... Storyline and characters are just ridiculous. Zhou Dong Yu is doing a good job though, how can we explain this ?!
Settings and outfits are rather nice, the OST is not bad : those are the onlly positive points I can see.
This drama is really overrated !
Forget about it !

WTF, Why Tianqi and Yuemi ???

My girlfriend literally forced me to watch this.
ML and FL annoyed hell out of me, specially FL, Her behavior is like a bully, not with power you can bully people, but using her intelligence to bully others, even though repeatedly claimed she was bullied. can't sympathize with her at all.

From the first scene, i liked the "Yuemi" character, even thought she was the FL because how bright and easy going she was..then She dies at the beginning of the story along with her lover. story is just ended right there for me.
I stopped watching and my girl understood...

then my girlfriend told me my couple is back... just the guy for now... I told her to tell me when she comes back which is never. I watch the last episodes. "Wu Huan" actress is very impressive...

Tianqi character is very good even in the point of a man... He basically became the father for the child of the woman he loved...
gave up all the power until his hair turned white even when he didn't get the girl TWICE no matter what he did, he didn't get corrupted and held on to love until the end and Gave it up cleanly... he impressed me more than the ML and FL combined.

Why the hell writers didn't bring back "Yuemi" it's so unfair and ridiculous at this point...
even if they bring her back it would not be enough time because of the drama between ML and FL.

According to my view, Tianqi and Yuemi fully deserve their own full on story-line ...
this is very disappointing for me..

Ancient Love Poetry.

I have compared this drama with my religious beliefs. In Christianity, there is GOOD and EVIL. We also believe there is a GOD, His Son and His Holy Spirit. He created the universe we live in and all the inhabitants. From the tiniest atom to the human beings that live on the earth. He also created a very handsome angel that had the highest role in heaven over all the angels. This angel became proud and jealous. He made war against God and the heavenly Kingdom. God threw him and his followers, 1/3 of the heavenly angels, out of heaven.Their destination was the perfect world God created. Since then this world became chaotic. But God still loved the people He created. The three Dieties met and God sent His son down to this world. Born as a human baby to parents who serve God and love Him. He was named Jesus. Jesus lived among men. He suffered the same temptations we have. He was falsely accused and finally He was crucified on the cross. He died to save us from sin and to give us eternal life. Only if we accept Him. There is always a war going on between that angel Lucifer (Satan) and the people who worship Jesus Christ. Very similar to this drama.

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.

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.

At Least Watch Until Ep 4

The VFX is really good. I think it's the best of every c-drama I've ever watched. The cast are also awesome. Xu Kai looks handsome as ever here. To be honest at the start I feel that Zhou Dong yu is not beautiful enough as she played as the most beautiful goddess in here however after watching for 3 episodes in I feel like she is cute and quite lovely and she is such a good actress with myriad of expressions. In addition because the vfx is really good as I mentioned before and a solid plot I totally recommend this drama.

Edit: I really love this drama. Now that I have watched until the end. This drama is really good. The plot is all intertwined together. If you like fated love and unyielding love that can overcome everything, you should watch this drama!!! And of course there is the added bonus of the star-studded cast. All the actors and actresses is really beautiful. Most especially Xu Kai!!! I cannot take my eyes from him!!! His act as Bai Jue is really good, I can feel the emotion from his eyes. There is a couple of scene where his eyes just get watery but the tears won't leave his eyes, that kind of feeling, really just got into your heart. *sigh*. Anyway, rest assured, he will get HEA.

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.
