Seja Seu Cavaleiro (2024)

Slow mo Musical..

Was the director of this drama a conductor?? You know the person who leads and directs an orchestra?? Because it felt like an orchestra.. Music everywhere with background scores for every single scene.. In some scenes the music was so loud that you cant hear the dialogues.. And The slow motion was overused.. It felt like it popped up every other minute and every scene was in slo mo.. If they had just toned it down this could have been a 16 ep drama instead of being unnecessarily lengthy.. The camera work?? Let’s call it " Dynamic " to be kind.. Rapid jump cuts and erratic angles made the drama even worse.. While the story was alright up until ep 20 it suddenly took a nosedive.. Just went from average to worse..

I watched this for Fan Zhi Xin.. He deserves better scripts because he is genuinely good.. The drama was visually appealing and the main leads did well.. But overall it didnt offer much else.. If you are expecting a proper romance drama.. Better lower your expectations.. The romance was far too sparse to carry the genre.. Watch it for the cast but dont expect much beyond that..

"We are fire"

I don't really write reviews, tho I love reading them (still taking reviews with a grain of salt).
But I do love Fan Zhi Xin. I hope he'd get the projects and fame he so deserve!

- His acting is always, always on point and I can't believe he's so young
- Credits to the casting director, because cast delivered great
- I know episodes seemed very slow paced (and I don't really dig it), so I set it to 1.5x speed
- the KISS! some might find it slow burn, but that's what made it exquisite! too bad there's not a lot :(
(edit: there's a lot of weight and meaning when they kissed on Ep25... swoon-worthy! I won't spoil more, but...)
- the theme and it's ending were spot on for me

finally, on FZX: I love how his roles are (almost) always portraying a devoted (if not lovesick) guy with a "I will kill and die for you" vibe. I know it might be a red flag, but he's just fire. He's so sick (literally) on "Dear Liar" but I just couldn't help but see where he's coming from (this is bad, I know... but it's FZX, so I guess it's kind of ok?!?).

As for links and how to watch some of these, I normally google it like "(drama name) eng sub ep(episode number). At times, they may be available in Bilibili, but Dailymotion is a good link, too, if it's not available via Kiss.

I hope this helps: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x96h44o (episode 1)
