Behind the Mask (2025)

Fast paced spy drama that has light touch of Mr and Mrs Smith

I found out about this drama from reddit. Was in the mood for something quick and this fit the bill with the drama being under 90 minutes. This drama has light touch of Hollywood's Mr and Mrs Smith and was enjoyable.

What I liked:
1. Action scenes - I enjoyed the action scenes and appreciated the one on one battles between FL and ML. It's great to see kickass FL and kickass ML. I actually liked that ML acknowledged FL as his equal partner during their action scene.
2. Romance - Since both FL and ML had secret identity, their romance was done in two ways - sweet (when they run their daily lives) and spicy (when they were on missions). I wish there were more emotional pull between them before their secret identities were revealed.
3. Styling - One member said Yer Forger outfit which made me search online as I was unfamiliar. I liked FL's spy outfit.
4. Antagonist - The antagonist character was done well and I could feel that he's almost on par with the main characters unlike other antagonist. I liked how his character was wrapped up.

What I disliked:
1. Last fight - I thought this scene could be done better with a different strategy. Since we had 2 great spies, why work in silo?
