Bad Romeo Episode 17

Five Stars

Urassaya Sperbund has always been my number one favourite asian actress. Her stunning beauty and talent, the way her acting stays nuanced and natural. She can make me cry and laugh at the same time. To know that she would co-star as love-interest with Mario excited me since i always wanted to see them as praek & nangek in lakhorn and "Bad Romeo" was a dream come true to me. Glad that i picked it up, one of the best lakhorns in year 2022!The love,passion,pain,heartbreak...everything was handled with beauty and care. Knowing this lakhorn is based on Judith McNaught`s novel "Paradise" made me wanna pick this lakhorn up sooner and so glad i did. Such a beautiful lakhorn, with a well done love-story.I will re-watch it all over again...and again.

A nice beginning, with such a bad storyline

I just watched this series for fun. It started as a sweet romantic story, although some parts seemed questionable (like swapping houses with your bestie, and then it turns up to be somebody else's home. Really, could that happen in real life?), but oh well, like I said I just watched it for fun I think the acting was really good. The actors and actresses were mostly good-looking. The scenery was beautiful (countryside, the island, city scenes), but the storyline was so terrible. Okay, this was the usual rich girl/poor boy love story with all its challenges. The plot is also filled politics, social injustice, family business, trust and betrayal, love and revenge, and the romance became more and more trashy. Why make this into 17 episodes, when you could have stopped at episode 10. I couldn't stand I still love you--No, I dont love you anymore- Yes I love you--No I dont love you and the Let's sign the dvorce papers- No, dont--Yes, I will sign it--No, I wont sign it cycle which seemed to be never ending and was very tiring to watch.The fina episode was-what can I say?- So simplisitc and boring. A nice honeymoon on an island, with cheesy romantic talks between Khim and Kla. Then what happened with the other characters? Suddenly we are suppossed to forget about It also.has such a simple happy ending, leaving no explanation on what happenned to lthe other characters: Khim's father, cousins, aunt, bestie, ex-boyfriend, and also Kla's sister, stepmother/natural mother Asia. Everything seemed to be hanging, and viewers are jst supposed to forget they all existed. Let's just focus on the everlasting love between Khim and Kla. Ha ha ha.One minor thing which didn't make sense to me. Do super-rich people who live in huge mansions live alone? Khim's father, Asia, even Carl (Kla) lived alone and did their own house work. No domestic helpers? No security guards? No drivers? No gardeners? I just can't believe this to be true.Would I watch this series again? I dont think so.
