Okay i know yaya-nadech shippers are going to kill me but i will still speak my mind. After the 1st ridiculous episode and the stupid gun fight scene at the end of the episode i convinced myself to watch episode 2. I convinced myself to watch episode 2 because I know their chemistry is always off the charts and i know i am missing out dropping this series. I know the onscreen chemistry between the leads can make or break a drama. It can only make a drama provided the story is solid and the directors at least have an idea of what they are doing.
What a waste of talent and the writing is so so. How does a fictitious country in Asia have a royal family with English names? Princess Mona, princess Kate, prince Alan, king Henry, princess Alice? I don't mean to sound racist or anything but its just not making sense to me. Its a fictitious country that trades with Thailand and speaks the same language with them. Couldn't they give some royal members traditional names? Its like watching Black Panther and the royal family in Wakanda has English names. I mean like having T'Challa named prince Harry and Okoye named Margaret. No offense but i just feel the writer could have put in a bit more effort to make the story a bit real.
How on earth did she teleport from the icy mountains to the palace? We last saw her shot in the back and drowning in the dark waters and next P'Win picks her up on shore and they start fighting. Excuse me...what happened to the gunshot wound on her back? We only see Win throwing medicine and saying attend to your wound else it will get infected. Helloooo, the gunshot is on her upper back so how on earth did she clean it up and disinfect it?
The gun fight in the first scene is well choreographed i must admit. Watching that scene i was like well well well not too shabby i can definitely watch this. After that everything went down hill. The scene with the attempted assassination in the snow my word... the gun fight scenes were so pathetic. I mean she was running down the stairs with one gunmen on her tail. Come on it was a straight staircase not a winding one and he didn't even fire a single shot only to be disarmed by the princess who simply stopped in her tracks and pom pom pom he is falling down dead. Like seriously!!!
Okay i will skip everything else inbetween and skip to the last gun fight scene on the beach. They were fighting in the open no obstacles no what and the leads were doing a peacock dance with bullets raining around them. It was just pathetic and sore to watch.
At least i managed to convince myself to watch the 2nd episode and 15 mins into the story i could not take it. I know i am missing out on great chemistry but i will not subject myself to any more torture watching this. I will watch their other dramas to make up for this.
This is a NO for me. I only gave a 5 for the acting/cast because i know they will do a great job and by they i mean Nadech and Yaya. I would say if you a shipper and watching this for the chemistry then yes go ahead. If you are want to just ogle and drool at Nadech then yes go ahead. He is handsome as always and Yaya beautiful as always. Too bad i didn't stick around to see them get together. Buut if you are looking for a good action drama like me right now then i wouldn't recommend this. You will be cursing by the time you finish episode 1 like me.
Should you decide to watch it then good luck and enjoy. Let me know how it is ?
