Dramas and Movies I watched in 2021
The comments are the base of my reviews... A bit more unfiltered XD
As per June 20, 2021
-
1. O Lobo
Chinese Drama - 2020, 49 episodes
Watched: 10th December 2020 - 19th February 2021
Since my bad habit is skipping a lot, I wanted to try not to skip this time. However, I definitely did not manage to fulfill this goal with this show. I do like the drama, I'm just not a big fan of characters crying and posturing all the time. The plot, which I usually place my focus on and is the most important in deciding if I like a drama or movie, was fine. I honestly expected more but I gotta be honest, I mainly knew about this drama because of Xiao Zhan and his role in The Untamed. So, my expectations for any drama are very high now, not the fault of this drama.

2. Desejo A Você: Sua Melodia Do Meu Coração
Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
Watched: 15th December 2020 (ep. 1&2), 13th January 2021
Had to rewatch the first two episodes when I watched the rest of it because I forgot what happened in them. But hey, I loved it so it's all good XD
Positive
+ sweet
+ short (easy to squeeze into a busy schedule)Negative
- too short episodes -
3. Water Boyy The Series
Thai Drama - 2017, 14 episodes
Watched: ~2018, 1st - 4th January 2021
Rewatching because I literally don't remember anything except "thai bl drama swimming pool". Honestly, that's probably all I'll remember this time as well.
Positive
+ cute male leads
+ good chemistry between leads
+ New's (Apo) acting holy sh*t
+ friendship as a topic as well
+ representation of lgb (tho the l is... let's not talk about it)
+ family conflict because of new "mistress"Negative
- many side-stories that get a lot of screen time
- rape (???)
- messy storyline
- manipulation
- bullying
- lesbian becoming bisexual (???) -
4. Há Quanto Tempo
Korean Drama - 2017, 5 episodes
Watched: ~2018/2019, 5th January 2021
A case for re-watching because I forgot everything but some scenes. And I mean, it's so short, it can't hurt wasting away 1.5h for this.
Positive
+ Good leads
+ Loved Gitae's older sister
+ good acting
+ no idolization of the underground
+ interesting story
+ music fits (tho I'm still laughing about the bed scene... Don't worry, you don't see too much)
+ still great when re-watchingNegative
- rushed beginning -
5. Invasão Zumbi
Korean Movie - 2016
Watched: early August 2018, 10th January 2021
Honestly, I mainly re-watched it because my friend asked me to write another review XD
But I really like the film so it was worth it.Positive
+ great start --> pulls into story and gives you a bit of background
+ suitable actors
+ love the characters
+ great music
+ high re-watch value
+ the zombies look great tbh
+ love the kind of open endingNegative
- some stereotypical characters but let's be honest pretty much every story has themImpressive moments that stuck in my mind
- Grandma 1 peeling an egg for Grandma 2 and sacrificing herself later on, Grandma 2 walking towards the door of wagon 15
- the cute guy and his friend throughout the whole film, he was such a loyal puppy
- dad getting bitten and making sure he won't be able to harm the two only survivors
- the military guy with the sniper -
6. Invasão Zumbi 2: Península
Korean Movie - 2020
Watched: 12th January 2021
Doesn't live up to expectations from "Train to Busan" but is pretty decent. If you ignore the many plotholes and missing logic at least.
Positive
+ lots of action
+ interesting backstory with the two leads
+ sympathy for everyone --> don't connect too much
+ love the family
+ what the heck, Jane really exists???
+ good cast
+ great musicNegative
- quite different from the prequel
- writing is a bit of a disappointment
- how did an infected get on the boat, didn't they check???
- and ofc his family dies
- logic is not the focus of this one, can't believe they would've left the military do THAT weird kind of stuff
- it's been 4 years and no other country thinks of anything and they still don't know how to deal with the virus? it seems that they're not even trying... -
7. Descendentes do Sol
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
Watched: 13th January - 16th February 2021
Honestly, I don't know anything about it, but it definitely sounds interesting!
Positive
+ interesting start
+ overall very enjoyable and funny
+ several storylines but all are very close together
+ I like the ending very muchNegative
- a looooot of drama and are they dating or are they not? -
8. O Indomável
Chinese Drama - 2019, 50 episodes
Watched: March 2020, May 2020, 31st January - 14th February 2021
Story 10
Acting/Cast 9.5
Music 9.5
Rewatch Value 10Positive
+ high rewatch value
+ great story which wasn't changed too much from the novel
+ great music
+ emotions
+ beautiful scenes and landscape shots
+ great acting from pretty much everyone
+ surprisingly good cast, I personally didn't know anyone's name prior to watching but they absolutely slayed
+ heartwarming, heartwrenching, scary scenes? They got it
+ still great after watching for the third timeNegative
- the music fits except for in two episodes where it made me laugh all the time
- the blood-spitting sometimes looks really weird -
9. Os Indomáveis Edição Especial
Chinese Special - 2019, 20 episodes
Dropped: 16th February 2021
- pretty much the same scenes as in the full version as far as I've seen. Might watch it when I miss The Untamed and don't want to watch the whole 50 episodes. It's not bad at all, I just don't need to see the exact same scenes a second time
-
10. O Conto da Raposa de Nove Caudas
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Watched: 16th February - 17th February 2021
Liked it a lot
-
11. O Conto da Raposa de Nove Caudas: Uma História Inacabada
Korean Special - 2020, 3 episodes
Watched: 17th February 2021
Short and sweet
-
12. Le Vrai Où
Chinese Special - 2020, 1 episode
Watched: ~18th February 2021
I honestly don't even remember what was happening so... It can't have been very bad but also not very good. However, it's very short (10min), so if you want to see some Wang Yibo acting, go and watch it :)
-
13. Legend of Fei
Chinese Movie - 2021
Watched: 14th February 2021
-
14. Os Nove Místicos
Chinese Drama - 2016, 48 episodes
Watched: ~14th - 27th February 2021
In the beginning it was very draggy and in the end again. I honestly don't know what was going on in the last episode because it was first flashbacks and some parts weren't really flashbacks and then suddelny there was war and fighting. And finally, one of the most epic fighters was a woman, Huo Sanniang, I love you for this. Other than that I basically skipped all of the white guy's scenes because his voice and way of speaking Chinese sounded awful to me. And some characters have way too much screen time and there definitely are too many flashbacks. However, overall it's quite a decent drama. The middle part is very interesting and, thank goodness, it has tomb raiding in some way.
