What a start to an amazing franchise!

The start of it all, 飞虎 (Tiger Cubs). A bit of a shorter review here because it is a short drama after all. However before the review, I want to stress that this was the first 飞虎 and thus, there were a lot of things TVB had to improve on in the later stages (which they didn’t).

Plot:
Funny story: I almost quit the series at Episode 4 due to a certain female character who was so annoying (those who watched the show will probably know who I am talking about). However I persevered and finished the show. I will be honest, it was not the greatest plot especially with the unrealistic ending of 展 sir jumping into the sea with Kenneth Ma and coming out virtually unscathed. Let’s not even mention the horrendous storyline for all the main female characters.

A good point about this show though was the depth in the story of the cases (something I feel is essential in a show about crime). It was also quite enjoyable to watch towards the ending, especially Vincent Wong's tragic death.

Acting:
Joe Ma as usual pulled off a great performance. Him Law and Vincent Wong both did extraordinarily well to my surprise as well. Again we do not mention the female characters here. Props to Kenneth Ma too for acting as a villain and not a doctor for once. He should act as a villain more often, especially after his 使徒行者3 performance.

Songs:
身边的依据 made me in the mood whenever it played.

Rewatch:
The series felt long and draggy so probably not but I suggest skipping to the very last 2 episodes and rewatching that instead.

I heard the reviews for 飞虎2 were terrible so I haven’t watched it yet. So the next review will go into shaw brothers 飞虎 series.

Thanks for reading
