First episode: Obviously the director of this got his rocks off watching women fighting? The fights are so rough they are uncomfortable to watch. It was like they were trying to crash each other's skulls and break each other's bones.
Btw, the women seem to be the almost the only ones new here, else it's all the same team like in 'Lep Krut', the same director, the same guy in the same main policeman role (Es Kantapong obviously just kept wearing the same costumes), I think even the guys in small thug roles looked familiar. Same like in 'Lep Krut', the story is some ridiculous half sci-fi sh*t that does not matter at all as long as someone is constantly bashing someone's brains out.
I thought: I might have persisted watching 'Lep Krut' 18 times waiting when shall Cee Siwat kiss Yui Chiranan, but it doesn't mean I will find the same level of patience here:) But, I do like the lead couple here, too. The girl is likeable at first, because she is NOT that badass of a fighter. That is, before she returns as this "semi mechanic human", wearing tight black suit, or at least heavy makeup all the time (the b-grade 1990's aesthetics does look a bit embarrassing). Nevertheless I was impatient for the main guy & girl meeting each other again, for which I had to wait through 6 episodes. Which were veery long. Took more than 1/3 series runtime.
That included of course many action scenes, which were over the top (Oliver Bever can't help himself), but I only cared about when the guy finally recognizes his supposedly dead girlfriend. There are production videos shown in the end of each episode and it's so funny watching the whole team putting so much effort to create scenes that get mostly skipped through as unwatchable. I almost dropped this before it really started. But it's like two faces of the same coin: what's the show's weakness is also its strength. Because of that oldschool naivety, the romance line is the more endearing. Same like in 'Lep Krut'.
Therefore, at the end of episode 7, finally I cared about a fight scene I was watching... What a couple scene, LOLz. I think I mentioned already in my review for 'Lep Krut', that I haven't watched such stuff since 'La Femme Nikita', which was 1997. No one makes stuff like that TODAY, lolz. None except Oliver Bever:D Episode 13 there is another hot scene, or rather a wet scene, lol. Apart from maing guy & main girl, some people are freaky, some killings are brutal and no matter all the heavy weaponry or sci-fi gadgets, still we watch long fistfights most of the screentime.
In the end, I rate a bit higher than 'Lep Krut', because I had a better fun watching this. And judging from the behind the scenes videos, so did the makers of this:)
