Huge, wasted opportunity
I'm gonna be short. This show could have been much much more, especially with the pretty solid and talented cast.
Story: Weakest point of the show. Incoherent: Childish, serious, childish, serious. Weak story makes the whole show pretty boring, and also curses the characters into not to be interesting at all. 2.5/10
Characters: Could be decent with a good story and better direction. Characters are quite one-dimensional, and also the script doesn't help. It's only the actors non-verbal skills that somewhat save the characters. 4.5/10
Acting: The strongest aspect of the show. The leading actors and the side actors are doing a pretty solid job, they try their best, some very nice emotional moments, in my opinion they could have done even better with a better direction/production. 7/10
Direction: I really can't decide if the bad direction made the show go sideways or the weak story. 5/10
Music: I can't even remember it sadly but it couldn't be terrible, otherwise I'd remember it as well. 4.5/10
To sum it up: I adore the leading cast members having already seen them in other productions, but this story is so lame and boring, no suprises, no uniqueness...
I almost dropped Double Savage around EP 5-6.
