I liked a lot of things about this movie... the scenes, the sets, costumes... but I feel like the actors were chosen solely by appearance... they do fit in.. until they speak. They speak with such a fake and weird English accent that it becomes cringy, really. Which is shame because they are quite good looking... the queen, her lover, Fernando, his girl, Tong etc. But most of them are really bad actors.. like, anti-talents... but not all. Wish there was more character development, because when you watch it like this you don't have much to linger on after. Everything is so obvious. Everyone's intentions, feelings. Not a bad thing, but it does feel empty and it makes you feel unsatisfied after enjoying the beautiful sets, decorations, costumes... it is just so straightforward and concrete. Also I need to comment acting of murdered king's brother. It's so terrible, I cringe and skip his part every time I watch the movie. I watch the movie only for couple of captivating interesting scenes because overall it's just unbearable to watch, which is shame, as it could have been a fantastic movie. Nevertheless it did make me fall in love with South East Asia with all that beauty, and if that is why they made the movie, they succeeded.

I really like to see this once in a while because it represents teens of mid 2000s, their lives, fashion, struggles etc. Viktor is cute and so is Relja (lol). I like the female characters too. Overall it's a really cute TV series with some romantic scenes. Basketball players, their team, it's ups and downs and problems of individuals are represented as well. There is nothing to dislike here. The 'zoom' effect is stupid in my opinion but really that is the only thing I don't 'like'. It's minor. I love fashion here for example Jelena has ultra thin eyebrows and dresses like a real y2k girl that she is in this series. So to conclude, I like it. 9/10.

Absolutely pointless and a waste of your time.

It has Egyptian music in the intro (wtf), has this famous couple Sloboda and Vojin, of which both are quite boring, even though not bad actors plus Sloboda is really attractive. But that can't fix the bad plot. The rest of actors are really bad and without charisma. Presence of Kojo and many others is not impressing me either. Also using too many English words in order to appeal to young people... like no thanks.
