A great plot and acting but needed to be more intense and dark
You know when you see a drama, you like it, like the acting, storyline, cinematography but you feel like there's something missing that doesn't make it a 100? This is exactly what has happened with Revamp.
I enjoyed the idea of the plot and the progression so much and this is coming from someone who is not a very big fan of fantasy and vampires to be specific so for me to not drop the series in the middle means it was well done. The characters had great development. The redemption arcs weren't well executed but I blame the lack of 2 more episodes. That comes to my next point of what could have made it better. It needed to be more intense. The beginning few episodes didn't show much and the story started picking the pace after the big secret was revealed. The screenwriter and director needed to keep in mind that this is different from normal romance genre and they needed to add more strong impressions of the idea of vampire in the story.
Cinematography wise this is chef kiss. Probably one of the finest GMMTV has ever put. They had good budget and it was used well. I hoped the little sounds on every movement were not added.
Acting wise this was mind blowing. The intense stares and emotional havocs that BounPrem brought in the series is amazing. Aun kept on surprising me. Stamp with his few experiences showcased great skill. Kapook and Kay as usual the masters of acting. The two actors who truly made me stunned were Mark and Barcode both showcasing great versatility, acting skills and embracing their characters to the core. A great cast indeed.
All in all the show was enjoyable. If it wasn't a vampire show it would have received more praise but as it is a vampire show it needed some more dimensions of fantasy, darkness and intensity. I appreciate the crew and cast for taking up a new challenge without prior experience to this genre. It wasn't bad at all and definitely worth trying.
