OMG,
I became a semifan of Chen Kun, after watching Sword of Outlaw and The Knot, both starring Li Bing Bing (I am a fan). He is really quite handsome, but his acting needs much improvements. Chen and LBB looks amazing together, both in the serial and the movie. I thought LBB and Chen were perfect together, despite their tragic ends in both series and movie. But, I guess that's what makes it more memorable.
The Knot's release had brought over $5 million, which isn't as much, but still an enormous amount. I've read my great reviews on the movie, and I agree, Chen and Vivian needs to improve more, due to their stiffness, at some point in time. But LBB's role Jindi was definitely mesmorizing and defnitely well-liked. Its no wonder Jindi won him over. Sadly, their end was tragic and heartbreaking. I really enjoyed watching this movie, and am sure that fans of all 3 main casts would love it too.
Sword of Outlaw on the other hand, lacked structure in its storyline, therefore was unsatisfying. Chen's performance was alrite, but again, he was rather stiff. But he managed the look, since his character is precieved as stiffed and wood-like. Even so, I enjoyed LBB and Chen's love story, their love was definitely unconditional and worthy. I cried rather much with both preformances from both the movie and series. Its sad to say that LBB and Chen could not end well in their productions together, therefore I hope that in the near future they would come up with a happily ever after production.
