Painting the portrait of Justice
"Genius suspended above the abyss"
The story so far. .
The first few episodes in this season felt unfamiliar yet familiar at the same time, exploring the numerous cases one by one I think the plot was carried well, some of the cases were heavy but some balanced out the other. There is still a part of me that is confused with the scenes surrounding the little girl in the red dress and who slashed the painting in season 1, i thought it was pretty vague or some kind of loophole. Overall .. I've still got my own questions and I look forward to season 3.
I'm glad that we got the chance to delve deeper into the lives of the other members in the squad, it definitely made me- as an audience feel more connected to the characters since season 1. I feel even more happier knowing that the series revealed/included the issues surrounding AI and the art community, I think that was genuinely thoughful of them to add in the show. . I think I was confused more on what Shen Yi's role is, because slowly he seemed more like a criminal profiler than a portraitist to me. . It heavily reminded me of Criminal Minds as well. The show did well in showing us the bond between the main leads by being eachother's compass,
As for the acting. .
I really felt fascinated and impressed with Tan Jianci's acting as Shen Yi, he portrayed his character so well, but I believe Jin Shijia did amazing too in bringing Du cheng's emotions and inner turmoil to life as he tries to support/encourage Shen Yi's passion and at the same time protect him from falling into the abyss. . I felt uneasy along side him. . I also think that Fang kaiYi's actor AKA Zheng Yulong was incredibly talented! Fang kaiYi's character was intriguing and sorta reminded of Moriarty, a cunning genius. .
OST was amazing, my headline is literally a lyric from one of the OSTs as well . . The songs and its lyrics were good too. Its worth listening !
Overall, I had fun watching this season a lot more than season 1 ~ If you heavily enjoy watching crime series with some thriller, suspense, mystery with interesting and different cases, (with a bit of comedy) I recommend this ! I look forward to season 3 !
I rarely write reviews, infact english is not my first language so apologies for any confusion-
