Review

Oppressive Love is a movie based on ghosts and supernatural themes. I feel like this movie was a mess. It does have a Bl theme, but there is no process of how they got in their relationship. The acting was messy at time. It had good music for scenes. The plot was chopping and didn’t flow throughout the film. But this could be based on the fact that it was supposed to have a second movie but couldn’t due to China’s ban. I feel like the closer you find videos or TV shows that made, produce, or released close to the banned end up not having all the components that planed to have at the beginning of the plan. I don’t know if this is the truth or not or just something I have noticed about any Chinese movie or TV series made in 2016. Would you watch it again? No, the movie was a mess, and I felt like it was missing parts or just not connecting right.

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

I Am Not Okay with This is just a show that I fell in love with in the first episode. I love the choice that they pick for the cast. I admire how they show how small towns are, where the setting stuck in the past due to most small towns not being the richest. I love outfits that Syd and Stanely wear throughout the whole season. This tv series had my attention the entire time. The only problem I had with this show is that it was only six episodes long. I think of you fell in love with the 2017 IT young cast, you will enjoy it. It’s just something as a teen would connect within away. I love the feel of the character and their relationships. Like how IT executed, it shows more of how preteen and teen act and say. I think most writers forget that just because parents have a hold of the situation in their home and think they shelter kids from the sinful passion of the world doesn’t mean when the kids get in the world, don’t act differently. Most of the time, when kids learn to cuss, it will be from other kids or just something that they overhear. Would you watch it again? Yeah, I plan to binge the whole season(s) when the new season(s) comes out.

Review

Warning this is a tearjerker. Rainbow Without Colours starts weird, but you should continue watching it because of it’s worth it. I want to thank the actors and actresses in Rainbow Without Colours for a fantastic job. I felt the emotions of the characters. Rainbow Without Colours is a movie that shows that you sometimes meet the middle ground for the ones you love. The father finds out, at first, I think he didn’t approve. However, he realizes that the older brother would them protest the young brother from anything. I think he slowly started to accept it. The sister realizes that they were in love, and separating them would cause them pain. Rainbow Without Colours is a massive example of how falling in love and losing our love can make someone go crazy. It also has the considerable theme of accepting your kids or family or friends for who they are and not trying to make a square fit in a triangle hole. It shows the problem with society. I mean, you don’t have to like two same-sex marriage. However, is your hate worth losing a person in your life? Would you watch this again? Yes, it made me think about what you should cherish in your life and accept people for who they are.
