First Impressions
I highly recommend this drama because it has amazing cast and good story pacing.
Please see below my first impressions about this drama after watching 6 episodes
CGI: Based on the 6 episodes, I can say that the CGI for this drama is better compared to other xianxia dramas. The world building and the sceneries are all visually pleasing to the eye. The CGI for the sand dragon was my fave and Chong Ming as bird is my least fave because I feel that it could be better.
Story: The pacing of the story is just right imo and it was able to introduced the characters well without overwhelming the audience (especially those who did not read the novel or follow the series) with TMI.
Cast:
XZ as Shi Ying looking ethereal in those flowy almost white robes. This man is just so consistent in honing his acting skills and making everyone impressed with his improvements. I am particularly awed with his acting during crying scenes or when he is showing complicated emotions, he is really good at it. He has the ability to engulf audience to his emotions. As audience you can see and feel his character emotions and inner turmoil just by watching him.
RM as Zhu Yan. I am liking her acting and looks in this drama. I checked with my friends that read the novels and according to them, RM is doing a good job in making ZY character cute and adorable instead of being annoying clueless brat like how was she in the novel.
Li Ming De as Chong Ming. His comedic timing is good and can make you laugh in the middle of heavy scene because of his antics.
Other casts are visually pleasing as well and with decent acting skills.
Customes:
From the trailers, the robes and other customes for SY are gorgeous af! Elegant and flowy with intricate designs.
Makeup
Perfect. I like that the makeup for each character is just appropriate and not too much.
Filter
The filter applied on this drama is very light almost not noticeable unlike those heavily filtered xianxia dramas that whitewash the face of the characters.
Disclaimer: I did not read the novel or any of the novels in this series. I have zero idea about what will I expect. Although, I did watch too many xianxia dramas through the years but I mostly dropped them midway or just force myself to watch until the end because the story bored me, the CGI was bad and the main cast acting was too poor. Therefore, I am excited to see watch The Longest Promise.
