Review of Lady of the Dynasty (2015) by Mandy C — 23 Oct 2015
Over the top - Over budget, overblown of CGI and overly hyped about movie. After the success of Fan BingBing's character in the series "The Empress of China" as Wu ZheTian, she continues to portray one of China Beauty Maiden: Lady Yang Guifei.
While Fan BingBing is seasoned playing role of lady from the Tang Dynasty, she failed to bring the movie to life. The entire movie is a flop as it is simply hollow. Choosing to aesthetic over substance: beautifully decorated, good looking stars but poor screenwriting, horrible chemistry, and a mixed culture English narration which obviously didn't work.
Such a big letdown, where Yang Guifei life and story were merely told, instead, time were wasted mainly the many scenes of polo and Leon's boring strict face acting.
