Lee Aug 06 2021 11:12 am Its actually better than the tv series. Way much better, even though at the middle to end, it is kinda convoluted a little but its great tho. It is kinda rare in a movie/series who bravely depicts chinese company as a villain, personally i think its sort of soft reboot than the prequel
