Great Chemistry Burdened by Filters-Gone-Wild
The Pros:
- Force and Book have natural chemistry. I'm excited to see them in more work together and separately.
- I'm especially enamored by Force. Visually, he's one of the most attractive Thai (and BL) actors I've seen. He's just got...stunning visuals and very expressive eyes. He's a natural-born actor and I'm really excited to follow his work.
- Lots of cute moments between the two actors as it leads into their confession.
-OST is good.
-The university is stunning.
-I like the concept of the plot
- The kiss scenes. <3
The Cons:
- The plot is too overwrought with unnecessary drama and typical BL tropes to an infuriating degree. ESPECIALLY after watching the GMMTV masterpiece, Not Me, and *knowing* they're fully capable of elevating their content.
- If I have to hear, "I'm your Enchante" one more dang time, Imma throw hands.
- Book is not Brad Pitt, nor is he even more visually appealing (IMO) than Force, so it's hard for me to grasp that a total of 5 men (and evidently the whole school) are immediately pining after him within the first day of school and not a single person acknowledges the absolute stunner that is Akk standing beside him. I literally couldn't take my eyes off Akk the whole time.
- The filter on everyone's face, *especially* Book was incredibly distracting. Book didn't even look real sometimes.
- Too much live singing. Just a personal preference not to take away from the already short episodes with multiple musical numbers. I don't feel like it adds anything to the plot, excluding maybe the final performance of the song Saifa wrote to Theo since it has parallels to Theo's relationship to Akk.
- I felt like the OST dumbed down its viewers a bit. I didn't need pauses in music and heartbeat sounds to know a moment was meant to be sexually or romantically charged. I can easily see it for myself. It didn't really add to the scene, it just eroded my suspension of disbelief because I could just hear the editors saying, "Okay..now this is the part you should get excited about."
- Egg and Im were so cute. I liked the levity they added to their scenes.
