My Toxic Lover Episode 4

My Toxic Lover (2021) Episode 4

While there was some progress in terms of plot/storyline (Bryce ended up working for Ethon) on Episode 4, there were still a lot of unnecessary fillers whose only purpose was product placement. Yes, Bryce's shower scene was ok even if it was obviously prolonged but the scenes at the office, dinner table, and spa were just tiresome. The characters were generally not endearing enough. Script had corny lines and repetitive dialogues. Acting by the lead cast members Aki, Kevin, and even Solo need work! There was a lot of staring at nothingness. I really feel they need to undergo acting workshops handled by professional and veteran actors (e.g. Angeli Bayani) to improve their craft. While production design and cinematography were mostly fine, editing issues persisted. There were dead air and dispensable scene inserts (e.g. the shower scene should have been one continuous scene). All in all, this was another weak episode.
