Review

Mr. X and I-Promise You A City just made me feel nothing. I feel sorry for the one that got cheated on in Mr. X and I-Promise You A City. However, I don’t feel sorry for the cheater. 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. It just shows that everyone gets cheated on no matter your sexual orientation.

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.

Review

Mr. X and I- Beijing Beijing shows the sacrifices that people have to do for the ones we love. Sometimes you have to leave to protect your loved ones. If you are destined to be together, you will meet again. When? We don’t know. It shows how love is a flame that can be blown out, and It’s eternal. Would I watch it again? Maybe on a day where I want to watch something sweet and short.

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.
