This show is not an 8.7.This rating makes MDL a joke.The show is not bad, but it's not an 8.7.In my opinion, this…
So far, I am really disappointed with 'You maniac'. The storyline is oversimplified and predictable. The protagonists are written without any nuance or clear motivation. The secondary characters are mere extras, lacking any consistency, backstory, or even a name. I am not looking for realism in this type of production, but here, for me, everything is so artificial that I just can't buy into it. The narrative progression is highly predictable, with each episode closing on a cliffhanger solely meant to feed our voyeuristic appetites, without any subtlety. And don't even get me started on the amount of alcohol consumed per episode… Everything relies on the insane chemistry between the two actors, who, I must admit, give it 100% and do their absolute best to defend hollow characters. I am not sure I will make it to the end of the series if this abyssal emptiness continues. These actors frankly deserve better roles and better projects in the future. I truly hope so for them!
Absolute cuties. I didn't mind the general slow pace of the dialogues. The cinematography is very sought out and quite beautiful. But story wise not much is happening in 8 episodes, this could have easily been just a 4 ep drama or a movie (without a real resolution since there is no real tension). This one is definitely odd, very charming but uneventful and plain.
I added Park So Jin. I think she was so funny in "Sh**ting stars" and in "Alchemy of souls". (update ) ... I also added Lee Joo Young brilliant in "Itaewon Class" and "Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo" and Kim Sung Cheol so heart touching in "Our beloved summer". I'm stopping here or I will go all night. Thanks for this poll ;-)
Just finished ep 8 and I am crying my heart out. Just needed to share. Up for ep 9 in a few minutes. Loving it so far (obviously). Good night/morning/day everyone.
Firstly thank you so much for the mention. And yeah Korn is really brutal and evil like kan said. Not only many…
I'm confused in general by this ep and regarding VP I am more disappointed, or I was expecting more or IDK I needed more than this :-( I thought it was rushed ...
EP 14 was good and at the same time ... IDK ... So just to be clear : Korn faked his own death to get a grip on Gun (who comes to war in shorts thank you @Brighest Star for the observation) and this legitimates the killing of hundred bodyguards (on both sides) including his first lieutenant ???? And everybody accepts that ??? Korn is not a victor he is a dictator in disguise. The highlight for me : amazing scene at the bar with Kim and Porchay, choreography, humour and cinematography at the top! On the teary side : Vegas & Pete :-( Confused by this ending but thankfully it it is not the end of it... season 2 !
