Reviews
A good remake.
When it comes to remakes, there’s often a fine line between paying homage to the original and creating a carbon copy. But this Philippines version of "Bad Genius" manages to walk that line, offering audiences a fresh and engaging take on the well-loved Thai drama.While the core storyline remains the same in the Philippines version, the overall vibe and energy of the series are distinctly Filipino. There is a sense of local flavor that adds an extra layer of depth to the narrative not only in the setting, but the overall look and tone. It’s not simply a retelling of the same tale; it is a reinterpretation that stands on its own merits. This version also boasts impressive production values and in my opinion, way better than other Viva One’s series I’ve watched before.
I think one of the most notable things about this remake is Atasha Muhlach's portrayal of Lin. Her interpretation of Lin is both faithful to the original character and also brings something new to the table. And what surprised me is that this series is her first full series. I personally like this Pinoy Lin than the Thai Lin. Muhlach's performance is a testament to her talent as an actress and a promising sign of things to come. The rest of the cast did pretty well, only that I think Gab and Hyacinth could improve more with their acting.
Overall, the Philippines version is an example of how a remake can be done right. Of course, there are some flaws, but with its good production values and distinctly Filipino vibe, this remake is something to consider for fans of the original and newcomers alike.

To keep watching so you can see the characters still developing
I think the show is good something different from the other shows that are on. Also the characters all have their own story that is being develop. It kind of different then the Thai series because is explaining the story. Also I see how Lin and bank love story is developing and it seems that they are going to show more of Pat and Grace story which like toxic relationship.Also if you are chasing in the wild fans please keep and mind that Gab and Hya relationship is very different. So we will see a different side of the characters.
I think that the acting is better than most Filipino dramas. And all the chemistry between the actors is very well developing let keep streaming and watch this show to the very end 🌸🥰🩷
