Too rushed, which made things not very believable

The plot is interesting, I’ll give them that. However, with everything they tried to squeeze into two episodes, they ran out of time for a lot of it. Not only weren’t Jay and Pun given time to develop whatever was going on between the two of them, the flashbacks in the second episode were not necessary. I can understand their point, but with how short the two episodes are, they were really not needed. They didn’t show anything new either. And then the “horror” Pun’s friends went through was anticlimactic and it just took the story in a weird direction.

I know Jay and Pun were not end game (for obvious reasons), but I was very bothered by the lack of chemistry between the actors. If they want us to believe that the two have found themselves in this wild and passionate love affair, I need much more than a hug and a half decent kiss to believe it. Especially if we are to believe that Jay was this obsessed with Pun and for their love affair to end in flames. I do think they were able to portray Jay’s creepiness well though. He made me uncomfortable from the start, but that’s a good thing in this case.

I am not a football expert, but even I know that you need more than four players and an extra to compete. The few additional players in blue did add up to a full team, but everyone treated them like they are not actually part of it. They were not part of the celebrations, the orange jersey players didn’t involve them in anything outside of practice, and there was no communication in the locker room either.

Friends Forever

What could have been huh? There's no telling though because absolutely nothing happened in the two episodes. It took an episode and a half for the contents of the synopsis to take place, leaving no room for anything else to happen.

What followed was a whole lot of flashbacks, which would've been understandable if this was a long format series with a lot of twists and turns and actual intrigue and suspense about who the murderer is. Unfortunately, since everything is incredibly obvious, the flashbacks play no role. It would have at least made sense if they were just showed once, but one scene was shown as a flashback multiple times, and this applied for several scenes.

It's a shame though, because there was absolutely no story beyond the synopsis, no proper genre you could think it is, and not even a proper conclusion to what could have been a solid miniseries.
