The Legend of the Nanhai Mermaid (2020)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
Based on stories from Gan Bao’s popular medieval book «In Search of the Sacred, In Search of the Supernatural» (Soushen Ji), but happened in years of early Chinese Republic and War of Separatism. Young orphan Lu Xinzhi became a pro rogue. One day Lu and his younger brother Mao Mao went to rob the abandoned Shen's Mansion.

Open Double Feature RadarRadar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
