iQiyi is moving up in the world, supporting this Feng Xiaogang-directed crime drama. It's not just simple streamer fare anymore, they're also aiming at more prestigious projects. While We Girls isn't Xiaogang's best work (it's a little too sentimental in places), it's a more than solid drama with some stand-out moments.
Lan Xiya is the big star here, and together with Zhao Liying, she forms a strong team. The crime elements are light but essential, while the drama is a bit slick, but that's the norm for these bigger projects. The presentation is one point, and the length is perfect, so apart from some minor issues, I enjoyed this one a lot.
