Review

Bite Fight is a movie that centers on vampires and love. I will warn that this movie is tough to find due to copyright complaints. I could only watch the cut version, and the cut part is still somewhere float on the internet. I think the only real way to find the cut scenes is to look at fanvids. This movie has an excellent plot summary and trailers, but when you finally watch the video, you see how badly made it was. This movie, I think, would do an excellent job of being remade. You can tell that the budget was small. I don’t know since this took during the year that China did it Gay banned if it just got piece together at the last moment or it lost its budget for the boy love themes. I just have a feeling that the trailer came out before the ban, and the crew had an ” Oh Shit ” moment when the ban got enforced. I will say this is not the best of the best. The acting is particularly terrible at parts, and the CGI is something you expected in the 20 century. However, having all this downward spiral of issues, it kept my attention. I wish this got remade to fix the problems that it had. It really could even go as a short tv series too if they pushed it. I think because it had plotted the kept your attention, and the plot summary is unique at the time, it does an excellent job of being a good movie. Would I watch it again? If I could find all the uncut and better clarity of this movie, oh yeah. The plot just had me, or I am still living my supernatural boy love for these kinds of TV series and films.

Review

Cherries in Early Summer is a short web series made from short video clips and mostly pictures. The format reminds me of doujinshi with voice actors. Since the series is so short, they’re a lot of plot holes that make the audience guess on. The flow was good at moments but awkward moments where it’s rushed. However, it was enjoyable for me. I will warn the video quality is poor, and it talks about suicide. The last episode the sound comes in and out. The ending is open for the audience. Not everything explained in the series which causes you to be put off from it. I did enjoy the music and the acting. Its something I wouldn’t expect anyone to go oh this is my favorite. It’s something that you would say like oh yes I have seen it. It is okay.

Nevertheless, I can say it something you could watch to pass the time or take a break from a long series kind of like a refresher. Would you watch it again? Maybe but most likely not. Its something I would recommend to see once.

Review

The Right Man – Christmas Gift is just a 15-minute short film that is just pure fluff. It was excellent. The Right Man – Christmas Gift is kind of fast, but it sweet. I would recommend watching The Right Man – Christmas Gift if you need something short to entertain yourself. Would you watch it again? Yeah, it was cute and showed the love between these two.

I mean you cheated, what do you expect for them to stay together with you when you can’t wait for them. Would I watch this again? No, not really.

Genre

Review

Mr. X and I – The Groomsman ending is not the happiest. Mr. X and I – The Groomsman shows the dynamics of traditional Chinese culture. The fact that people have sham weddings to make their families happy is sad. Families don’t realize that arrange marriage does more bad than good. It’s worsted if the spouse that you don’t love doesn’t know from the beginning. It shows the sacrifices that Eastern civilization does to make their blood family happy. People of western culture/civilization, don’t have the duty of getting married to make their family happy by sacrificing their happiness. I don’t know how common it is in eastern culture. In this episode, the main reason for the sham marriage is gossip and respect from the community. Would I watch it again? I don’t know. I know I would recommend it to people to see how different parts of the world deal with specific situations.

Genre

Review

Us Against The World shows the relationship between two schoolboys that started by admiring each other and fall in love with each other. We see what gossip does to a group of people. It makes people so hateful and breaks relationships off. One of the characters had someone force come out before he could be comfortable with his feelings and accepting himself. We see that the couple at the end are still together even though one of them will lose his popularity to the fact he fell in love. I wish there are more series like this where we see stories of the struggle of a group of people whether it the LGBT+ community, by the color of your skin or your gender. Us Against The World shows the innocent love between two people and the fights of the relationship. I like that fact that this is all true stories. The acting is suitable for people who are still so young. Would I watch it again? Yes, it only 10 minutes long and make you feel happy that their love is strong enough for the struggle they will face.

Review

Summerdaze is 4 minutes video about a friend falling in with their best friend. It quick but shows the stages a relationship goes through when falling in love with someone you have always had in your life. It shows the realization about oh crap I’m in love with my best friend. The courage you have to make a move finally. The shock that your friend has when they realize you like them more. The struggle of being separated from each other to think over what has happened. Then the feelings that you have for your friend recuperate back to you. It is lovely and innocent love that we all wish we had. Would I watch it again? Yes, because of it being short, you understand the feeling that these characters have. The actors acted in these scenes naturally. I would recommend watching it for yourself.
