Black Heart White Soul (2014)

*CONTAINS SERIOUS SPOILERS*


Story: This is a story of how a promising lawyer went down the wrong path because of an accident. His desire to walk again leads him to make many wrong choices - using all those around him and hurting the one he loves. This drama touches on the issue that any good person can actually be a bad person and any bad person can actually be a good person.

Acting/Cast: What really stood out for me in this drama was Roger! I never particularly enjoyed watching him as he's always taking on comedy roles and I cannot stand watching him do comedy. For some reason whenever I pick up a drama and he's in it, I end up dropping it... he's comedic acting just puts me off so much. But he was amazing in this! He conveys all his feelings so well with his facial expressions which is really impressive. His relationship with Kristal was quite sweet as well that I was actually hoping that they could stay together. What I absolutely hated in this was Lisa... her acting was terrible! I wonder how she managed to land herself such a big role for a complete newbie. As for Ron, I found him somewhat mediocre in this and hope to see him in a better role soon. I was secretly rooting for him and Vivien XD

Music: That one love song between Louis and Leanne was actually quite nice. I believe Louis sang it himself which was a pleasant surprise because I didn't know he was a singer too?

Rewatch Value: Probably will not be touching this one again.

Overall: I found this drama very interesting actually. I enjoyed the story from beginning to the end and I really liked how it was just one big storyline with all the sub stories actually connecting to the larger story as a whole. For me this was a really strong point, as I'm not a big fan of all those other TVB crime dramas with lots of random small cases, then a sudden 'big' case at the end. I loved how everything intertwined with one another in this one. But as interesting as this drama was, there was something about it that made me not enjoy it as much as I could have. For the first time, I actually did not like any particular character in this drama and this may be why I couldn't find myself enjoying this one to its fullest.
