Bad writing, bad effects, ok acting

[vasilogmalibog · 1/10 · 11 November 2021]

Watched it now trying to forget it. Though the complexity of each other and their development should be a sign of a good writing. Yet, the lackluster acting of many of its actors except for those that have experience have ruined the should have been good plot. I also think that the director could have presented certain scenes better. Unless he wanted a comedic approach on a series serious scenes (mostly on younger actors) then there should have been a better approach to the young actors current acting capabilities. Nonetheless, I didn't enjoy that series. I did enjoy the plot, felt like a good read book just adapted horribly.

A MASTERPIECE SERIES!

This Series is................. A MASTERPIECE!! Just watch the film! I want to give a big applause to Barreto for her acting skills. Barreto's acting skills are getting better and better! The last episode made me shocked! The plot twist? IS A MASTERPIECE!! I love the series is ended because the viewers of this series will gonna be questionable or curious about it. My only question is... Is there a sequel? HAHA. Overall my rating is 10/10

Not convincing

Didn't find any of the characters remotely likeable, JB should take more acting classes. Voice is different from of her recent movies; I've realised. Skip it, don't stream it. Meh.

IT'S JUST SO SUSPICIOUS

[aureliaspiicxxy · 9/10 · 3 March 2022]

I haven't watched enough thriller, suspense in Filipino web dramas but this is just *chef's kiss*, from the cinematography to each of the character's personal issues. You could say that the portrayers gave all of their best, so kudos to that!

Characters: First of all, I really love Julia's acting and her narration. Her conviction is just strong so I didn't really know who was narrating, was it Elise who is bratty and yet was eaten by her conscience or (!!spoiler!!) Rose who is probably still alive. Second, her chemistry with Tony! Their relationship just screams rich, classy, and mature trope which I love. Third, can I say WOW to Ina's character makakasabi ka talaga na Wow, tangina. I am not a fan of cheating in any movies/series and most especially if you're having an affair with someone years younger than you so it was pretty disturbing for me. Can I say, Kokoy's character is pretty convincing as well and I feel sorry for Elise's dad. Lastly, the barkada is like a typical rich and somewhat selfish trope lol. Overall, I can't deny all of their phenomenal acting.

____________________________________ As for the story, every single scene makes me feel on the edge on my seat. You could only say "Hmm he or she is suspish, I don't know if I should trust what they are doing/saying". The only thing that kind of bothers me is that it's fast paced, everything was happening so fast it's like we are in Elise's/Rose's shoes. But it may just be on purpose.

I don't have anything much to say in terms of what's happening in each episode so you have to watch it yourself. Highly recommend this series, so go watch it.
