L.O.R.D: Legend of Ravaging Dynasties

First of all, I really want to like this movie, I do. I like the casts. I love animation. And seeing it was produced by two China giants, Wanda and Tencent, I was hoping at least it could be tiny entertaining.

The CGI was fine, but the story telling is totally none. Some reviewers said you should read the book before you can understand the movie. That is totally rubbish. A movie is another powerful telling medium. If one had to read a book to understand a movie, then at the least it should provided some written reading to those who were going to watch the movie. To put it into comparison, people who do not read Tolkien's still can understand his Middle Kingdom in LOTR, although not fully.

A waste of resource, casts and time.
