Story: Yes, this was indeed a very different kind of pretty man XD I started watching this without knowing what it was about.. I thought it was something similar to Meteor Shower since it was apparently the third installment.. but boy was I surprised! I never expected it to go into the direction of magical powers. These group of guys all gain some special powers due to an accident and surprise surprise.. the reason for all these powers are somehow linked to the leading lady. Hmm.. but what's with the ending..... O.O Do I sniff a sequel??

Acting/Cast: I didn't know most of the actors in this and only watched it for Emma.. love Gui Gui she's too adorable! But this drama really introduced me to a bunch of cuties XD Alen.. Leon.. Edwin.. I hope to see them in more dramas soon! It's great to see Zhang Han again but I really don't see what the fascination with this guy is.. why is he like everywhere?

Music: I'm not too sure what the songs are because the version I watched had the opening and ending cut off.. so I can't really comment much here.

Rewatch Value: I probably won't watch this again as re-watching will lack all the suspense and anticipation that it had as I already know the story now.

Overall: This was a fun ride. It was actually I think my first drama with magical powers that isn't a historial/fantasy drama so it was very interesting for me. I was quite impressed with the CGI effects, unlike in those fantasy dramas XD If you want to watch a pretty boy drama but sick of all those high school/college love dramas then totally give this a go! The romance and drama is still there but with the addition of a bit of excitement.. which let's be honest... most of those other dramas lack.

Story: This is probably one of the fluffiest romance comedies I have ever seen. It's basically about a couple that coincidentally gets married due to some certain circumstances. Of course, along the way we have another couple who happen to be intertwined with the whole situation. It strongly focuses on the relationship of the main couple which I believe is the charm to the whole drama. Seriously... who cares about the overall plot... we're here to see this absolutely hilariously adorable couple - Wallace and Tiffany!

Acting/Cast: I love seeing Wallace and Tiffany on screen together! They made the most adorable couple ever! They were hilarious and had amazing chemistry. I enjoyed almost all their scenes together - from the hilarious bickering to the sweet lovey doveyness. Some parts were heartbreaking to watch though T_T But of course, we need all that drama - but sometimes I just can't understand how a guy can have the heart to act so cold and cruel to the girl he loves! *sigh* This couple and the way they acted kind of reminded me of Alec and Vicki in Princess Pearl - their personalities are actually both quite similar The second couple was actually a little boring for me to watch - again, very similar to Zhou Jie and Ruby in Princess Pearl. Even alot of the situations were very similar. I cringed though at Gong Mi's acting.. I'm not sure who she is but everytime she talks her eyebrows will move oddly O.o and that kind of bothered me. Thank god she wasn't on screen all that much!

Music:I loved the music in this drama. The opening theme was quite catchy and bubbly, whereas the ending theme was beautiful and and emotional. I loved the ending theme alot and I can still hear it playing in my head now. I also loved how they played the female version during the later episodes - it was a totally different feeling with the same emotions (don't really know how to explain XD) I remember a few other insert songs that were modernised with the oriental music. A type of genre I really enjoy actually. One particular song that cracks me up is the 'bouncy' background music that they play whenever they (I think it's mostly Tiffany) acts all goofy and stuff. It really adds on the comedic effect.

Rewatch Value: I don't usually have time to rewatch dramas but in this case, I would rewatch all the scenes between Wallace and Tiffany. It would be amazing if someone actually cut all their scenes and made it into one big video. I'm sure that video will bring a big smile to my face whenever I need that extra cheering up!

Overall: I know I mentioned love alot already, but I must admit, I LOVE this drama so much! I'm having some withdrawal symptoms already! The story wasn't anything spectacular, but I absolutely loved it from beginning to end. This was a very light and fluffy drama with lots of romance - and I loved that! From the very first episode I was quickly reminded of Princess Pearl and throughout the whole drama I could feel the same elements used. From the characters to the scenarios, I could see all the similarities... and since I loved Princess Pearl so SO much I couldn't help but adore this just as much - though the story was a lot weaker. Wallace and Tiffany are easily one of my biased couples now although Wallace and Joe are also my bias XD I'm torn!

Story: So we have a girl who is 'forced' to marry someone that she doesn't love to help with her fathers business, so she runs away on her wedding day, only to coincidentally lose her memory and have her chance of having her second life. I liked the sound of that, seemed like a very nice concept for a story.

Acting/Cast: I loved the cast in this drama. From the two main Cyndi and Ken, to the secondary main Pink and XJK, to the parents.. and all the rest of the cast. Cyndi was so pretty, sweet and pure and Ken was just hilarious. I've been really impressed with Ken's acting and am glad he seems to be getting a lot of roles lately. They were perfectly adorable together! I really loved the parents too, they are the best played parent couple I've seen in TW dramas hands down. They were wonderfully perfect. The whole interaction with the whole cast was just amazing.

Music: I've always been a fan of Cyndi's singing. I think she has one of the sweetest voice ever, so it's not a surprise that I loved the opening song.

Rewatch Value: If it wasn't for the length, I would totally watch this again.

Overall: I really loved this drama. I'm not sure why I gave it a 9 only back when I watched it - I would happily give it a 10 now. This is one of the best family dramas that I've seen and having 70 episodes was not a problem at all. I enjoyed every minute of this and if length is not a problem, I would highly recommend this to everyone who loves a simple, cute, romantic, and hilarious drama.

Story: The story revolves around a young boy who was 'cursed' with a mysterious aura suppressed within him. Because of this curse, he secludes himself from others and yearns to be normal. After he is accused of murder due to his 'curse', he runs away in an attempt to discover the truth behind the murder, and along the way he finds love, friendship and family. In his journey to find the truth, he uncovers more than he has ever imagined - his 'curse'.

Acting/Cast: I literally fell in love with every character in this - from the main characters to even the minor supporting characters. Yang Mi and Li Yi Feng were a very sweet couple but a little dull at times. But I can't help but love them. They have a very rather bitter sweet relationship. Not sure why, but it did get a little annoying hearing her call "Su Su" all the time.. XD My favourite 'couple' were probably Zheng Shuang and Ma Tian Yu... their cute bickering was adorable. I love how naturally they appeared with one another that I always looked forward to watching their scenes the most. Who impressed me the most in this was probably Qiao Zhen Yu - I have never seen him nor heard of him before but his portrayal of his character was brilliant. *SPOILER* He played one of the best villians I've seen IMO. It doesn't hurt that he's quite good looking too!

Music: I actually loved both the opening and ending songs - they were beautiful. Though I don't really know who the singers are as I'm not very familiar with Chinese music. I love the sound of chinese oriental music so much! Even the background music that was played during any battles was rather upbeat and 'exciting'.

Rewatch Value: I don't rewatch shows much because I don't have time to and there's always so many new dramas coming out. But, I would be willing to sit through this again with english subs as I'm sure I must of missed something because I'm not 100% fluent with chinese especially when modern speech isn't used.

Overall: I highly recommend this drama especially if you like the ancient fantasy type dramas (aka wuxia). The story was wonderfully written and the actors did an amazing job with giving us this drama. Like any other wuxia dramas, the costumes are beautiful! I guess the only drawback is the 'awesome' CGI effects that they used - very typical CGI in these dramas. I know some people who cannnot stand the CGI, but to me they were beautifully created so I don't mind too much.

Story: Apparently this was an action based drama revolving around the financial business, where basically with money you can get away with anything. The main story was supposed to be focusing on the rich man with the 'midas' touch, unfortunately there is little development in that area, instead it focused too much (way too much) on the secondary storyline of the female cop. It focused on her family, her relationship, and her career. I'm not sure if that was the purpose of the drama, but that's the direction it went.

Acting/Cast: The last time I saw Bosco and Kate together in a drama together, I think was Lives of Omission, and I enjoyed that drama alot. It was actually one of the first TVB action dramas I watched and it got me interested in the genre a little more. Naturally when I first heard this I was excited! Bosco played his role exceptionally well alongside Nancy who was brilliant in this! Actually loved her relationship with Bosco - real cute! Was also surprised to see Sharon in a main role, but was rather disappointed with her acting in this as it was pretty mediocre... expected much more from her since seeing her awesome performance in Ghetto Justice. It was also great to see Jin in this! I really enjoy watching him and hope to see him in much more juicier roles! Jazz would be my favourite character in this. Loved his loyalty and sincere friendship and care towards the people around him.

Music: The only song I really liked was the ending song sung by Kate and Hubert.

Rewatch Value: I would never watch this again.

Overall: I went into this drama without any expectations because to be honest I had no idea what it was about, only who was in it. But I found this drama extremely disappointing. The story was weak and the character development was even weaker. There were many things that bugged me about this drama, especially at how ridiculously easy people just conveniently die O.o I feel like characters were all poorly written, and that they were all brainless - they jump to silly conclusions and make absurd decisions, and their emotions are kinda all over the place. The writers really need to focus on better character and story development. This drama could of probably deserved a 4/10 if it wasn't for the actors.

Story: The drama starts off with the handler of 5 particular undercover cops to be mysteriously murdered who had their details wiped off the system to protect their identities as there are 'black cops' in the police force. Just before his death he was able to pass on the message to another with the mission to search for the 5 UCs and protect them. This drama portrays the life of being an undercover through all their sacrifices and hardships that they must endure for the sake of their work.

Acting/Cast: If you were a crazy fan of CHARRAY... you would love this - their chemistry is amazing! Honestly, I never followed TVB dramas in their earlier days so the first time I saw them was in My Sister of Eternal Flower and that drama was a total flop for me. But this... this was amazing! They were amazing... I now understand why everyone was crazy about them! Adding Oscar into the picture, I actually really enjoyed the friendship of the 3 of them together - it felt really natural. The more lovey-dovey couple would be Sammy and Sharon. I loved watching Sammy in this - he was so cool especially when he was not lovesick. What really bugged me was when the drama focused on their relationship a little too much - they really had no chemistry but IMO it was probably due to Sharon, her acting really has not improved much and she seems too stiff and unnatural in their scenes together (thinks back to The Ultimate Addiction - shudders!) Another that surprised me was Benz! I am so used to seeing him in more simple and comedic roles and his character here was great - he does that evil smile really well that you really can't tell what he's thinking... you are kinda left thinking is he good or is he bad? We actually don't know until the VERY end. Michael and Elena also deserves a mention - as they are veterans they were pretty much perfect in their roles.

Music: Again, I'm not too familiar with HK music, but I really liked the choices in songs for this, as well as the background music. Everything was really fitting.

Rewatch Value: Hmm.. there really is no point rewatching this as all the suspense is gone now since I know what happens. There will no longer be the feeling of wanting to know whats gonna happen next.. no more guessing who the undercovers could be.. no more guessing who is good and who is bad... no more of that.. BUT I will definitely sit through this again especially for the charray moments!

Overall: This drama was brilliantly written with a solid plot which was played out nicely. I loved how they consistently kept the suspense throughout with a handful of comedic and dramatic moments thrown in here and there. Props to Charmaine and Raymond! If you love this genre of dramas, I highly recommend this one! It will definitely keep you on edge, but be sure to have a tissue box nearby as they will be needed - nah not really.. but it definitely goes darker and heavier towards the later episodes. I believe this was one of the best - maybe even the best TVB drama I have seen.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Story: Basically a story about three best friends who are around 30 years old, each with their own stories revolving around 'love'.

Acting/Cast: Was not a fan of particularly anyone in this, but now I absolutely loved the cast of this drama! It was perfect! I loved how natural everyone's acting is! It was brilliant! Now for the pairings, I know alot of people liked Danson and Albee the most, but for me I preferred Darren and Vivi. I loved the development of their relationship - it was so natural and something I really admire. Darren really stood out for me in this! I absolutely adored his goofy role and loved the way his character grew as the story progressed.

Music: "Love You... Love You... Love Yoouu.." That's all I remember.. XD I noticed these long dramas never really seem to have any songs that stick to me. I guess since they're long and quite low budget, they don't really concern themselves with the songs too much?

Rewatch Value: Although this drama was very enjoyable, I probably wouldn't want to watch it again. I loved the overall story and development and wish that it could continue. I would totally continue watching more of it.

Overall: This was a great family drama filled with lots of friendship and love. I loved the pacing of the drama and how each characters stories compliments each other and the overall drama itself. I loved how natural everyone was which made the watching experience all the better.

Story: This had a unique story where it showed the reliance of using mobile phones to communicate these days between friends, family and relationships. I love how realistic this is and how easily I, and I'm sure everyone else, can relate to the use of the mobile phone - with the constant messaging and checking the status of the other person whether they're online/offline or even typing.

Acting/Cast: Not a big fan of any of the actors, but Elaine was what drew me to this drama - her character though was slightly disappointing. Never heard of Priscilla before, but I was pleasantly surprised by her acting. She acted very naturally and I loved how casual she looked at home - this is something you don't see much in dramas as it does reflect reality completely. Raymond always plays his roles well so there was no surprise here, and his daughter played by the young Celine - OMG she is the most adorable child actress ever! She is amazing! The rest of the supporting casts were pretty good too - even 009 was adorable <3

Music: I don't listen to HK music much, so none of the songs really stood out to me. The opening song is very nice though - very fitting for the drama.

Rewatch Value: Not something I would plan to rewatch, but who knows.

Overall: Originally, I started this without much expectations, but by the time I finished it, I enjoyed it very much! I loved the whole concept of this drama and the performance by all the actors where pretty much top notch. I noticed how they kept referencing the drama In Time With You, and I can feel that this drama was inspired by it a lot, which makes it better then the standard TVB dramas coming out these days. I do recommend this to those who would enjoy this type of drama - a slightly slow paced, cute and refreshing one.

Story: A women has a 'test tube' child and she happens to meet two guys who donated... wow what a small world this is! Straight from the start I knew that one of the guys will be the father and the other will be the one she ends up with and my guess with who is who was correct! But.. I totally ship Kingone and Nylon bromance all the way!

Acting/Cast: Initially the only reason I started watching this was because I wanted to see Kingone in another drama, but I was a little disappointed when he didn't show up til around episode 8. Have been a fan of his since his early Comic Boyz days - was crazy over him and Figaro XD I loved his role in this! Cheryl was also perfect in this role! She is a really versatile actor and I really enjoy watching her on screen. I'm so glad she had this more elegant role as compared to her previous ones.. I much prefer her in roles like these. Loved her in My Queen as well! Nylon was pretty new to me and I didn't like watching his scenes at first... the first 8 episodes were a little slow and boring but he did slowly grow on me after Kingone made his appearance. I guess he must of felt more comfortable and his acting improved overtime. I also enjoyed all the other characters in this drama.. especially enjoyed watching Steven and Mandy's relationship. One particular actor I want to point out is Irene.. she was too adorable in this! At first I was a bit annoyed with her getting the role as I thought her performance in Love Me or Leave Me was beyond terrible but she was way way way way way too adorable in this.

Music: What really got me hooked to this drama was the opening song by Rainie and Wilber... I haven't heard anything from them in a while so I was pleasantly surprised to hear this. It is such a cute and upbeat song that it actually encouraged me to continue watching this. Then I heard one of the sub songs by Cyndi &amp;amp;quot;zhe li pong pong.. na li pong pong&amp;amp;quot; OMG that song is so cute! My tummy was in butterflies from my excitement... three of my favourite singers are singing the OST for this - I've been sold!

Rewatch Value: A little long so I would probably not watch it again... but if I ever happen to have satellite TV and this was playing... I'm pretty sure I'll be glued to the seat watching again...

Overall: I never intended to watch this and the beginning was a little slow.. but as soon as Kingone made his appearance I was instantly hooked to this. I loved the whole bromance between Kingone and Nylon... they were too adorkable! I really enjoyed the pacing of this drama and all the side stories. Each character shines in their role and made the drama as awesome as it is. There wasn't a moment.. well after the first bunch of episodes.. where I felt bored. What made this even more memorable was that the drama ended on one of the most perfect notes. This was a really happy go lucky, sweet and funny family drama with all the love and friendship that we all love. I do recommend giving this a chance especially if you don't mind the length of it. PS. This drama could easily have been called Two Fathers too XD hehe

Story: The title alone was enough to make me watch this because I've always been fascinated with mermaids, but knowing all the mermaid legends and stories, I had a feeling that the ending for this one might be heartbreaking to watch. There were two main romances in this and I loved both of them. One was cute and fun which balances out the bitter sweet one.

Acting/Cast: When I saw the cast I was thrilled! I use to have the hugest fan girl crush on Kenny back when he debuted as the duo Boy'z. &lt;3 Then he disappeared for the longest time. It's good to see him finally making it now in China! As for Zanilia, she caught my eye in the New My Fair Princess. Her acting is very similar to my favourite korean actress Jang Nara, so of course I took a liking to her. She was adorable in this but sometimes a bit too silly and gullible. I loved her red dragon look towards the end.

Music: This drama was very instrumental and oriental sounding and I love that style. It's beautiful. The songs in this were all very, very emotional. It really is beautiful the songs. Though the music they had when they used magic bugged me quite a bit, it was a bit ridiculous..

Rewatch Value: It was cute. I really enjoyed watching the moments between the secondary leads. They were hilarious and the comedic relief in this drama. So I wouldn't mind rewatching some of those bits.

Overall: I haven't seen any mermaid dramas yet so this was a must watch for me and I loved it alot. Story wasn't the best, but the romance was definitely the strong point - and I'm a sucker for romance and of course a bit of comedy XD

Story: So we have two people that look identical even though there is no blood relation at all. One is rich and one is poor. Usually in these stories, we find out that they are somehow related down the line.. like a long lost twin brother or what not.. but not here. They are not related at all. Obviously something happens to the rich guy and the poor guy is hired to take his place. Initially I thought it would just be a reversed version of King Flower, but it grew to be a story more of it's own! [Spoiler coming up!] What weird-ed me out the most was the sister falling for the guy that looks like her brother. I can never imagine that happening in reality XD unless.. incest? No!

Acting/Cast: Having seen Ken in alot of dramas lately, he's become one of my favourite actors. His acting in this was absolutely superb! It is not easy playing two roles in one drama and he played them both very well and believable. He is such a versatile actor! If you like Ken.. then this is a must watch! Paul made a really adorable assistant and he's quirky character was quite like-able. Enjoyed his moments with Ken alot.. him being the scared little boy with the rich Ken... and him being the cheeky little boy with the poor Ken &amp;amp;lt;3 Loved it! As for the main lead Andrea, I'm not really familiar with her but I think her acting was the weakest in this but she does have alot of room for improvement.

Music: The opening song was quite catchy actually, so were alot of the sub-songs. I think this drama had a really nice soundtrack.

Rewatch Value: As good as Ken's acting was in this I probably wouldn't watch it again. I liked the pacing of this drama and how everything was not predictable. So since I know exactly what happens.. I have no reason to watch again. Although I would love to see Ken lead in another drama soon.

Overall: I didn't quite like the drama at first.. but by I think the 3rd or 4th episode I started slowly getting hooked! I was always looking forward to each week for the new episode to come out XD I felt it just kept getting better and better and better. I actually gave this a 6 originally and was about to drop it but am so glad that I watched it til the end. I loved the development of the story and the way it was wrapped up. The pacing was great and I didn't feel like it was dragged or rushed at any point. Of course Ken was perfect in this. As I compared this to King Flower at first, I could say this drama had a much more solid storyline... but who could resist Chris AKA Terry in that one &lt;3

Story: The drama had potential to become something great with the storyline, but it just did not deliver well. I think the concept about a struggling model trying to make it big could have been interesting if they had the focus right. It started off great, but somewhere along the way I just lost all interest in it.

Acting/Cast: The acting was superb! I originally wanted to watch this because Janel and Johnny were in it. I absolutely loved them in the drama &quot;In Between&quot; and was happy to see them together in something else. I did not like the acting of Eric, it could be because he is from Hong Kong and him speaking mandarin did not help his acting which was rather disappointing - it is weird that they did not dub him. Cheryl was great as usual. The best would be Nita, her portrayal of her character was brilliant - so good that I absolutely hated her character like no other. I could not stand seeing her on screen - she was that good!

Music: I believe the opening song was sung by Eric, and like his speech in mandarin, I could not enjoy him singing in mandarin. Nothing against him, I've seen him in TVB dramas and he's acting was great when he's speaking cantonese.

Rewatch Value: This is one I will not be rewatching ever.

Overall: It's probably not as bad as I make it out to be. I guess the problem is that overtime the story changed. Instead of focusing on the dream of Cheryl to become a superstar model, it was more on the issue with Eric and his business and lies.

Story: We have a country girl who raises pigs and wants to enter the high class society and marry a rich guy. She coincidentally meets a rich guy who teaches her the ways of being a high class woman. But he loses everything - his family, love, and money and realises that he has no one in the world that truly cares about him except the 'pig' girl. (I found this odd because he had always had his forever loyal assistant by his side) Of course, the rest of the story that follows is pretty predictable.. nothing outta the ordinary.

Acting/Cast: Mike oh Mikee! I've always loved him since Devil Beside You.. but I've noticed that he does pick some pretty bad dramas - but not this one! I felt that his character had a a little bit of 'Jiang Meng' feel to him and I loved it! There was one particular scene where Mike pinned Ady against the wall and said "..you have to stay by my side.. and be my girl" which was totally Mike from DBY.. hehe LOVED IT XD This is his first collaboration with Ady and I think they acted really well together, but IMO they lacked chemistry. They did feel very natural together but nothing like the chemistry he had with Rainie - I think that will always be his best! I personally didn't really enjoy this coupling much. Ady is a really great actress though! It was also nice to see Shone as the dorky assistant - great to see another Comic Boyz member in the drama world.

Music: I can't say I'm thrilled with the opening song by Shin.. I much prefered the one he sang for Rock N Road! First song though that caught my attention in this drama was the incredibly cute and sweet song 'Melted' by Popu Lady. Every time this song started playing in the background I couldn't help but smile.. I really liked the beginning melody to the song... it's really nice. But I swear this song was part of the OST for another drama.. which I think was actually Fall in Love With Me? Then we reached the end of the first epi and I was in for a pleasant surprise - a beautiful song by none other than my absolute favourite singer.. Hebe! Bonus points scored for this drama! Yes I'm biased XD

Rewatch Value: This was a really entertaining drama. Story was great and the cast was great... but it lacked 'something' that would make me come back to it for a round 2.

Overall: I enjoyed this drama alot from the start to the end though I did lose a bit of interest towards the end. If you're a fan of Mike, I highly recommend this as it was definitely one of his better dramas. I did feel that the drama was kinda unbalanced in terms of story as it followed the two main characters a bit too much and that the rest of the characters were pushed aside when they were no longer linked to them even though they could have a side story of their own.

Story: The typical story where boy and girl grew up together treating each other as siblings but end up falling in love with each other. I usually think things like this is cute so I picked this one up. The beginning really got me hooked, but as it progressed it really lost me. I felt like nothing really interesting happened and everything was just so predictable and that the story was just so t-y-p-i-c-a-l, which made it really dull to watch.

Acting/Cast: The mains I must admit are really good looking. Chloe is really pretty and Jasper is super cute especially when he smiles. But them together just did not work - there was no chemistry at all. Same goes for the supporting cast, it felt like everyone was just literally reading their lines.

Music: I really like the opening song &quot;That Girl&quot; it's catchy and I had it on my replay list for awhile. Super cute song.

Rewatch Value: Little to none. Nothing really stood out in this, just a really typical drama.

Overall: This was a decent watch, liked how it was only 13 episodes so at least there wasn't the whole issue with dragging. I thought it was a nice and cute drama, but not one to put on your plan to watch list if you haven't already seen it.

Story: I'm a sucker for dramas about people aspiring to be a star and the road they go through to achieve it and of course with romance and comedy. So I naturally had to watch this. I loved the beginning but didn't like the direction it went towards the later episodes. I won't mention anything so I don't spoil it for anyone.

Acting/Cast: Again, I loved the cast! I love Chris, he has recently become one of my favourite actors from King Flowers. He was amazing! And he was amazing in this too! *little fan girl squeal* Was a bit iffy that they had their singing dubbed though. I also used to really like Kimi back when she debuted but was disappointed when she didn't appear in much dramas anymore until the recent years. So yes, I was thrilled to see her in this! She was a little too animated and bubbly in this, but by the end you could see her growth and maturity which is great! I was also quite surprised to hear her sing! She wasn't dubbed. However, in the last episode, they dubbed her with Jia Jia's singing - which was actually meant to be the singing voice for Nita. To me that was a fail. XD Also worth mentioning was Mami, she was so adorable and her singing was so sweet and innocent. Love her voice.

Music: The opening song by Ah Shin was amazing! I got chills every time I listen to it! I usually skip the opening and straight to the drama, but for this I listened to it every time! Love it! Also was never a big fan of Mayday but I've heard so much good songs from them! Really talented and awesome music!

Rewatch Value: I would skip through the episodes just to watch Chris!

Overall: Although this drama was not perfect it was still a great drama. Great start! Great end! Great acting! Great music! Great story! Best of all, there wasn't much dragging at all. I really enjoyed this one and would recommend it to everyone!
