'Linlang' review: gaslight gatekeep girlboss in thriller drama form

When it comes to infidelity our first instinct is to blame the husband — he must have been the one who cheated or neglected his family.

Rarely it happens in real life and in shows that the wife is the one who is in the wrong. Hence, Linlang's plot comes to me as a fresh narrative as it revolves around Juliana, our female lead, breaking everyone's lives, hearts and trusts.

This series is divided into three acts and I must say the last act is my least favorite. It felt anticlimactic and rushed.

The last few episodes didn't live up to my expectations. The story should have stuck up on being a makjang. I certainly enjoyed the dramatic plot twists and heightened feelings. All the rage and fury dissipated by the time we got near the ending. They also gave us a glimpse of the younger sister's dating life which no one asked for and is irrelevant and bland.

Despite these shortcomings, I must commend how the four main leads never fail to deliver great performance. What struck me the most is the pile of lies and betrayal and how each character stood their ground even if they are in the wrong. How audacious of them. The characters/actors made quite an impression to me and that's what I appreciate in this series the most.
