1. The Wicked Game
Thai Drama - 2025, 10 episodes
well, that was disappointing. Like, actually one of the biggest disappointments this year because it failed in every aspect. I love Daou-Offroad and I find Offroad to be a fantastic actor - I was so excited for this series! I genuinely don't understand what happened but the quality production is terrible. The audio was peaking throughout the entire series, the music was corny and didn't match the tone of most scenes, the camera struggled to stay in focus, the story was flat and repetitive, the actors were mediocre and all of this combined (accentuated by the music) felt like a soap opera. It was almost comical whenever the "DUHH" sound effect hit for every reveal\mistake\show of emotion\etc. and whenever the actors repeated the same things over again. Take Chet for example, the man is unable to resist throwing an object across the floor at minor inconveniences. All he does is throw a table around while throwing a tantrum and throwing weak insults like "you're just the son of a mistress. You and your mom are useless. I'm very important. Mine, mine mine". And the father is just as bad with throwing punches at his children. He kept hitting them and repeating equally, annoyingly repetitive words "you're useless. I never liked you. I gave you a chance and you ruined it. You're not worthy. useless, useless, useless." Very quickly in the story do these series of events cycle. Someone does something, the siblings voice how incapable the other is, the father is happy, it backfires, father hits and then banishes them away. repeat. anyway, the last thing I'll mention was the inconsistencies. Lots of continuity errors and also just general events that don't make sense. I can't tell you the amount of times someone got severely injured but it's as though their bodies magically healed itself right away. I'm not someone who enjoys hating on art, but I cannot understand for the life of me how this series has a near perfect rating?? Je ne comprends pas lol
