Dissappointed

I'll admit I came for Shen Yue and also because I like fantasy genre's.

The overall story itself wasn't terrible, but I felt like that were so many stories that are behind the movie (which I imagine this are since this is based off of a game) that it felt like the barebones of something that could have been better.

The ML lead didn't have much time to form a relationship with the two humans which is disappointing. I knew Shen Yue was more of a side character, but she seemed useless in the movie. I did some reading about her character in the game and there is a lot more going on there than is portrayed. I totally understand that there is limited time since it was a movie, but I still left feeling disappointed.

As for the bad guy/red stone/the friend who turned evil. Even that was underwhelming. There's this huge deal about this dragon, that it's so powerful, and then just like that it's defeated? I watched the other Yin Yang Master and that movie made it really feel as if they were facing a challenge. The Winter Queen was the only interesting antagonist. The rest were underwhelming.

The FL, I like her acting, I hated her characters. She spend the entire movie fighting with the ML. Honestly, I couldn't have cared less about their love story our whatever it was. She just wasn't likeable half the time.

Ultimately, this feels like someone just picked pieces of an overall story and threw them together with out caring much about the characters backgrounds. It was jut hard to get invested in.

What I did like, Shen Yue, the ML, second ML, Winter Queen, the outcasts demons. But I still would have preferred more to their story.

The FL, was pointless, the evil friend was pointless, that time should have been devoted to an actual villain.

The story really should have been told over a series with focus on the individual characters and their own backstories and their importance to the overall story.
