Than and His Nine Lives or A Guide To Stupidity, Chet 101
This is what this should be called. Either one would fit cause no way common sense or brain cells were used in this entire series. The sequence of events proved no one cared for their lives at all. The reach for power and revenge was vicious and relentless. Even if most of it was nonsensical.
Than has been injured so many times and still survived that it became laughable. The ring probably gave him the power of instant healing, who knows. Chet, like a petulant child, was giving tantrums left and right and was so crippled by his 'lovely' parents that he couldn't see truth. Pheem literally had to connect the dots like a pre school teacher for him to see what others could. Then, again, 6 feet of handsomeness was daily right infront of him and nothing happened. Pheem, rather than include Than in the final plan, does everything in silence and causes Than more unnecessary emotional pain. Everything else aside, that action was unforgiveable. Thanet, ping ponging between his children, was disgusting on every level. Like why were they all vying to be related to that? The shots fired at everything else but the real targets downgraded the credibilty of the series.
I enjoyed seeing a strong woman. Risa's bodyguard was worthy of her screen time. Daou stood out a little more as he can deliver an emotional sceen with true sincerity. The acting was ok but while I expected it to be dramatic, it was a bit much. Chet and Thanet both throwing their papers in the same frame, caused a few eye rolls and sighs. The plot was fine, even though the end was expected. Risa, plotting her way, without being caught until the end was good, also.
The predictability of every scene really didn't work in its favor but it was not unwatchable. There were a few decent moments. Just not enough to warrant a rewatch.
