  • Memories of the Sword

    2. Memories of the Sword

    Korean Movie - 2015

    10

    I rated this a 10 because the acting from the female lead and both male leads was outstanding—they really made me feel her story. The plot follows a young girl who was trained by her biological mother, though she was unaware of this fact. The training was intended to help her fix a mistake her father made many years ago.

  • The Palace

    3. The Palace

    Chinese Movie - 2013

    10

    My rating reflects on how great this movie was.  It tells the story of love and political power of the 13 princes.

     

  • The Assassin

    4. The Assassin

    Taiwanese Movie - 2015

    7.5

     

    I give it a rating of 7.5, mainly because Nana is the female lead. I really like her acting—she portrays her characters so smoothly.

    The story follows Nie Yin Niang, who is trained from a young age to become a top assassin. Her missions to eliminate corrupt royals are absolutely mind-blowing. However, things take a compelling turn when she’s ordered to kill someone from her past. This moment of hesitation adds depth to her character and keeps you hooked as she struggles with whether to go through with the mission or not.

  • Shadow

    5. Shadow

    Chinese Movie - 2018

    10

    I’m giving this a 10 because it’s based on history, and the movie was made excellently. Set during the Three Kingdoms period of China, it portrays the intense power struggles of the era. The story captures a pivotal moment in history, redefining it with masterful storytelling and stunning visuals. 

  • A Frozen Flower

    6. A Frozen Flower

    Korean Movie - 2008

    8.0

    I would’ve rated this higher than what I did, but there were a few unsettling elements. Was there really a king of the Goryeo era who was gay? It’s intriguing yet troubling how he made a couple of young boys his personal attendants and even chose one as his lover.

    The story becomes more complicated when the king marries the princess of the Qing dynasty, as Goryeo was under Qing oversight at the time. Later, he’s ordered to produce an heir, so he asks his lover to fulfill this duty. However, things take a dramatic turn when the lover falls in love with the queen, and she finally becomes pregnant.

    The king’s jealousy leads to a tragic act, sparking an uproar that ends both his life and his lover's. This conclusion left me with even more questions about the characters’ motives and the historical accuracy of the events.

  • Brave Citizen

    7. Brave Citizen

    Korean Movie - 2023

    10

    Friggin 10....... JUST WATCH IT!!!!!!

  • The Lord of the Monsters

    8. The Lord of the Monsters

    Chinese Movie - 2024

    7.0

    "The movie deserves a solid rating of 7—it's a very good film, but it leaves some room for further exploration. While the storyline is engaging, there’s potential for deeper character development and richer subplots, which could be better fleshed out in a drama series. However, it wouldn’t need to be a long one; a shorter drama format could expand on the key moments and bring more emotional depth to the story. Some minor flaws in pacing and character arcs could also be addressed in an episodic format, making the overall experience even more compelling. It's a movie with great potential to shine even brighter as a drama."

  • As Long as We Both Shall Live

    9. As Long as We Both Shall Live

    Japanese Movie - 2023

    10

    "This movie is a solid 10! The male lead and female lead actors portrayed their characters with incredible poise and excellence. It surpasses the anime in every way. However, I do wish it had been turned into a full drama—while I absolutely loved it, the movie left me with many unanswered questions." 

  • The Enchanting Phantom

    10. The Enchanting Phantom

    Chinese Movie - 2020

    8.0

    "I’d give this an 8. The love story between the scholar Ning Cai Chen and the ghost Nie Xiao Qian is captivating. His determination to free her from the demons’ servitude is both heartfelt and compelling. But the lingering question remains: can love truly set her free, and will they ever find a way to be together?"
