Leis da Atração (2023)

Totally and completely invested.

I just finished watching the first episode and I found myself ranting out loud during the different scenes, I'm totally invested in watching the whole drama. This has action, wit, tragedy, and glimpses of hope.

Charn played by Film, who also portrayed Thian from "To Sir, With Love (2022), is far removed from Thian. His vibe is edgy and a bit on the crazy side.

Jam (who was also in "To Sir, With Love) has you rooting for him and hoping that things will work out the way he needs it to be.

I am looking forward to the next episode, it has completely sucked me in emotionally. This drama has me wondering where the story and director will take me next. The main characters are outstanding!

So far i love it

This series start and i was like chains of heart . The starting when the fellow almost got shot and the guy flew in with the kick ??? i was like chains of heart ? down to the music , family every thing?. Was skeptical to get back in it, but i reached on work after taking care of my patients and went back in and boy was i in for a surprise. Was cussing when his niece got killed like really, the one good thing in his lie? then was like this senator son needs a cutass and when the lawyer came to bribe him i was like dont just twar up the cheque slap his ass. I cannot wait for episode 2??? completed and i loved it

Could've been done better

I'm always happy to see more thriller or different genre bl so when i heard of this i knew I'd try it.
Started it then about 5 minutes again felt like i needed to stop, didn't try again for a few days.
Very overly dramatic and not often in a good way.
As for the main couple it felt like decent chemistry (though alot of staring and flirting when someone's niece has died) until like halfway through and i just started feeling dissatisfied.
The repetitive will he won't he betray him and sell off the recording annoyed me too.
It was interesting having a dark lawyer charecter but they didn't really do the idea justice.
The secondary couple had potential, the bodyguard was obviously smitten but it seemed to just suddenly happen though with no weight to it, no connection. Similar can be said about the main couple becoming a thing, it was almost like the tension they tried to build up just fell pretty much flat.
Overall i was entertained for about 4 or 5 episodes then i just got more and more disappointed.
Not really attached to any charecters here and i don't see myself rewatching this.

Lawful Manners of Deadly Attraction

This title was supposed to be a (poor) homage to Manner of Death aka one of my favorite crime Bls to this day.

Laws of Attraction was all over my dashboard and timeline for MONTHS, so I did have quite some expectations. I was hoping that this could be the Manner of Death of 2023. The premise was very interesting and I did enjoy the first episode. Though, the show didn't manage to keep up my interest throughout the other seven episodes. I'm not entirely sure if I want this show to be longer to flesh out some characters and arcs or if I need this show to fix the pacing and speed things up and use the gained time more efficiently. I'm not super nitpicky about the fight scenes, the VFX/CGI and other stuff, but the budget was noticeable. This show reminded me a lot of Manner of Death, the amount of times they get beat up or chased and almost killed is nearly identical. The acting was also a little over the top or stiff. The main couple was nice in theory but Tinn seemed a bit too good for Charn. Like there was no "okay they are both unhinged, I can see it work". On one hand you have squeaky clean goody-two-shoes big bro and on the other hand you have a corrupt lawyer who has no issue faking evidence and putting innocent people behind bars and burning down houses to get what he wants. I feel like Charn had great potential but was screwed over by the writing and pacing of the show. The side couple managed to steal my heart. What can I say, I am a sucker for the bodyguard trope. Though I gotta admit, that I did struggle with Thaenthai quite a lot in the first few episodes. Specifically his apathy and disregard for other people and their death. But his character arc and storyline was interesting. The execution was fine, nothing groundbreaking or new, but fine. The sapphic couple was a nice addiction though very minor. The scene about marriage equality was brief and a little too on-the-nose, but I liked it nonetheless.

Emmmmm

I just started and although I have read the “good reviews” so far this is not giving @ all. Of course the main lead can’t die in ep1 but like seriously, the brother of the dead guy shooting all those shots and not even one bullet grazed him especially in such close proximity, puh-lease and then the push from our other lead, who shocker, materialized out of nowhere, I don’t even know if it was a push or a hit and the guy just flew so dramatically. I will keep watching and hopefully all those “good” reviews were actually onto something. Fingers crossed.
I will update my rating after watching.
