Being a mystery thriller genre fan, I went in with really high expectations seeing the 9+ ratings here and needless to say I am thoroughly disappointed! This drama had a great potential with an unique story line if it been had developed properly but somehow lost its way from the initial brilliant idea of communication from the past...
Actually there is no mystery or suspense for the viewers as from the 1st episode you are shown who the villains are and within first 2-3 episodes it only left me with frustration seeing how the characters are being so clueless even though people around them are so suspicious! It was a long wait till episode 16 for characters to actually figure out who was behind everything even though they knew how bad that particular person was! Seriously seriously frusrating, I must say!
This show is for the fans of drama that deals with social justice where everyone knows the villian, who is as usual highly powerful and corrupt individual but the hero who is a sincere underdog who preserves to fight against the evil and win the war the end. If you are a fan of this genre, then this drama is for you but if you are a mystery fan like me, then be prepared to be disappointed...
Even in the weekly cases there is no suspense as such, just police slowly, I mean really slowly trying to figure out the culprit who is again revealed to us right in the beginning of the episode! :(
Now coming to acting, everyone was ok ok even though I really didn't like the actor who played ML in the Past in certain scenes where I felt his acting was a bit odd even though I am not able to pinpoint the exact scenes...
His onscreen character too was not in sync like the character was fluctuating between moments of brilliance and moments of stupidity repeatedly. Because of this I skipped through many Past scenes and what I found was because the past had many filler scenes, I didn't miss anything even after skipping 20-30 mins at a time! Guess the show would have been better if it was for 10 episodes, then everything would have been more crisper.
The only thing I really liked about the whole show other than the overall idea of getting a radio transmission from the past that could change the present, was that the FL is realistically badass in the Present (2015 in the show) time. She may get hurt but she never failed to bounce back like a spring to kick some criminal's ass! It was totally commendable!
Also the fact the the Past ML encouraged her not be just a coffee serving girl to her seniors but to make her own stand against them like the actual detective she was, was a really good scene!
Overall a 5.5/10 for me.
