Such a disappointment

Abysmal display of art. I don't know if its the script or the actors but this was such a disappointment. In the first couple of episodes i thought, "Oh this might be interesting. It could end up being like The Sign". I have never been more wrong. With an average run time of 70min per episodes for 12 episodes, this was NOT WORTH IT! The acting was average at best, i feel bad for War because he's the only decent actor I could see. Even the little girl who played Toi Teng portrayed her role better than most of the other actors.

The directing, the camera work, the random flashbacks and stop start of action scenes were appalling. The way they'd drag out a scene unnecessarily, I had to forward past certain parts because seriously, how many fight scenes in every episode? And how is this a BL? This is an action drama that happens to have a tiny spark between the "leads" who happen to be men. Its like someone wrote an action series and then last minute they were like, "lets put two gay couples in it and call it a BL". Horribly disappointing. The fact that these roles could have been played by anyone says a lot about the acting in the show.

Don't get me started on the story. The weakest of "Four Horsemen" conveniently steals a ring that up until that episode had been completely irrelevant. And all of a sudden he rules the world? How are there no Horsemen rules and penalties for stealing from a fellow member? How does one ring suddenly make this guy "untouchable". And the granny with the "powers" who cant do anything but throw food at perps really fast? How does she end up having surgery for taking the wrong medication and no medical investigations are done? Then there's Carbon, Jack's nemesis from over 5 years ago conveniently shows up and teams up with Jack's terrible boss? How do they know each other? There are so many inconsistencies its frustrating to watch.

And then there's Joker's character who is this legendary thief but we never actually see him do anything legendary. As for that last minute heist where his friends followed him to the rooftop and conveniently had the gear needed to pull off the theft. Come on. 🙄🙄 The disappointments are endless. The writers messed this show up, the directing was poor and the casting could have been better. This had so much potential. It could have been a funny action series that fully explores and encompasses the relationship between Jack and Joker but we dont really see the development of a relationship between them. One moment Jack is possibly getting together with Rose and the next he's confessing his feelings to Joke? Like when did he know he liked him? Where is the love story? Where is the chemistry build up unattached to all chaos, the sexual tension and the softer moments between the two of them.? Their relationship felt like an afterthought and it was very unfortunate. I was hoping for a story of true love between two people fighting to defy the odds. Is that so hard to do?☹️
