The Tuxedo (2022)

just watch it

This isn't the series with incredible story and acting to match. The story is dull and ridiculous, the actors are awkward at times, the excessive sighing and eye roll worthy overacting-- it's cringe. But you know, I've watched worse.

Why watch this? Because these two have incredible chemistry, its not just "how many times can we have two attractive men take off their clothes and make out?" like a lot of bls are trying to do these days. Whoever put these two together knew exactly what they were doing, the way they talk to, look at, and touch each other is so intimate. They hadn't even had an intentional kiss yet before I was in a ball blushing, but when they did... holy hell. It's not like it was raunchy, it's just how they touched each other, how their bodies interact together, and the emotions behind the scenes.

So, just watch it, the drama is not amazing, but they are.

FICO DIVIDIDA COM ESSA SÉRIE

Essa série me deixa muito confusa porque é um caso gostar e ter muitos problemas ao mesmo tempo. Então vamos fazer uma lista de prós e contras.

PRÓS
- A proposta é muito interessante com um herdeiro traumatizado e um alfaiate que se recusa a trabalhar pra ele
- A forma que o Nawee se desenvolve durante a trama é interessante
- Os atores tem química e por conta disso o beijo e sua cena de sexo são excelentes
- Gosto que seja curto pois a história é simples

CONTRAS
- O assistente do Nawee é extremamente insuportável, meu deus que personagem chato, toda vez que ele estava em cena eu revirava os olhos
- O desenvolvimento da trama é frio e superficial
- Em alguns momentos eu sinto que o Aiaoon não ama o Nawee (através de suas ações, porque química eles tem)

É uma série curta e apesar de não ser perfeita tem o seu charme.

Quick Paced

I actually really enjoyed this show! It's something I would've been mad to wait a week to watch though(I binged watched) lol Anyway, It was all around a really short series which is more common for SK, but worth the watch. It moved real quick which can leave room for error but I didn't find much wrong with the series as a whole. The focus stayed on the MC and what little support cast there was, all played a necessary part in our MCs story together. Some parts made you figure out for yourself what had happened but not enough to make this series a deal breaker. It's not a favorite but if you want something to watch while you wait on your series next ep then this is the place for you.
*Idk how to explain this but the kiss(es) were a little weird. It's like they got highlighted/up close but still nothing went on. lol
Enjoy...

This fanfic story hangs by a weak thread

This series really confuses me. It honestly feels like I’m watching the serialized version of a BL fanfic. I wouldn’t be surprised if the writers just wrote a bunch of tropes in pieces of paper and developed a story around the one they pulled from a hat, at random. I’d guess they got: dead mom, late in the story secret girlfriend, protagonist traveling abroad in the last episode, family issues, evil stepmom, trauma, and misunderstood rich protagonist.

I honestly think that Chap and Green have chemistry, but the story simply doesn’t allow them to do much. The only truly good thing in The Tuxedo is the music, which is A+.

A passing drama

The drama was not the best out there, maybe bordering to bad and good. The story could've been great if the drama was given longer scene durations and episodes.

Let me just say that the actors in the drama are all good-looking lol. The set and production design are also beautiful, esp. the studio. I also appreciate the suits, I'm not that fashionable to comment on that aspect but I still appreciate the fashion.

Acting wise, I believe that if the drama was longer, the actors could've have given their best but since it's just 8 episodes and 20 something minutes, they were restricted. Still, the acting wasn't bad and amateurish.

Contrary to some reviews about the music, the two OSTs by Jeff Satur are my taste when it comes to music. They were beautiful and I suggest to check them out.

Overall, it's a so-so drama. It won't be memorable like others but it won't leave a bad impression.

not bad, could've been a lot better

Okay so it wasn't THAT BAD. Honestly, I enjoyed watching it. BUT, objectively speaking, it could've been so much better.
Starting with the actors, I absolutely love Chap and Green. They're one of my favorite ships off-screen so I was really excited for this show and I think they're acting was done pretty good.
With the plot, the pacing was kinda off. Everything happened so fast and there were many things that didn't feel complete. Lots of scenes felt unnecessary, repeated, and sorta cringe. BUT BUT BUT! Given that each episode was only 20mins, I feel like most of the flaws are understandable. If the show was longer, then the storyline would prob be a lot better and more clear.
Soooo I wasn't really focused on the plot as much because of the lack of development. Tbh Chap & Green's chemistry really saved the show for me. Their pairing is reaaallllyyyy nice visually and you can tell they're comfortable with each other which is GREAT.
There's not much to say about the side characters cause honestly you don't really know much about them. And I blame that on how short the show was.
The soundtrack by Jeff Satur was AMAZING !!! Love his voice, that song is stuck in my head all the time lol
TO CONCLUDE: if you just want to watch something short that doesn't require much thinking & has really handsome leads with great chemistry, then this is the show for you lol ------but if you want a really nice storyline with great acting and character/plot development, then its best you find something else to watch :)))

The series description:
"Bossy and self-centered Nawee is an heir to a fortune. He suffers from serious social phobia due to his childhood trauma. But that was before he met the gentleman designer Aioun. As the two get to know each other, the mutual attraction becomes undeniable".
I have never read a more accurate description because that is basically all that happened.

Oh? That description doesn't tell you how, when or why they fell in love or why they like each other?
Well... Neither do any of the 8 episodes of the series.

Good actors & great chemistry but they forgot the plot. A bunch of stuff just happened in between two people meeting and apparently falling for each other.

It wasn't awful but it wasn't good either.

Sichol stole the show. He was the best character. I love him.

Raso

A história em si tem potencial, porém as subtramas parecem que estão lá apenas de enfeite. Gostaria que tivesse mais episódios para que as subtramas fossem desenvolvidas, isso daria mais dimensões aos personagens. O romance entre os protagonistas vai de 0 a 100 muito rápido considerando a trama de fundo que foi criada para eles, em algum momento pensei que tivesse perdido uma parte importante do plot.
O desenvolvimento não é um dos melhores, você vai ficar com uma sensação de ter pulado alguns capítulos, porém não é um dos piores, acredite, já vi coisas que fariam Tuxedo uma obra prima.
Gostei da fotografia e da trilha sonora, a atuação dos atores principais são boas.

Lost Potential

It could have been sooooo much better if it had been longer, they had focused more on the history and rivalry between the two companies, and gone more into Nawee's social anxiety. The series felt rushed and unfinished.

A person doesn't get over their anxiety in a few measly days! Especially if it's a real phobia!

AND we had almost no info on the bad blood between the two clothing companies. It was just kind of... there, somewhere in the background. But if they had focused on it, elaborated, and put some of the tension into the couple's relationship, it would've made it feel more natural.

The romance started very suddenly. I mean, I get why - limited time in the series and all that. But it didn't make it feel less rushed.

I put such a high rating on the storyline because I saw it could be something good. The execution was just sloppy. Finishing the series made me feel like I had missed something phenomenal because people didn't put more effort into it. :(

Me arrependi de demorar tanto para assistir...uma boa direção, com cenas bem feitas, um visual muito bonito, gente bonita, uma OST linda...enfim, se fosse para apontar defeitos seriam bem poucos, tipo algumas pequenas falhas na continuidade. Uma plot simples mas poderosa, com alguns dramas familiares, mas sem grandes polêmicas envolvendo o universo LGBTQIA+ ( não é o foco da série). O bom é que os episódios são dinâmicos e rápidos, não deixam espaço para se tornar cansativo. Cenas hot be feitas, com leveza e delicadeza. Eu, que já sou fanática pelo gênero, amei!
