The Defected

Surprised at the high ratings. I thought this would be one of those good Hong Kong police dramas similar to Internal Affairs but it wasn't even close

First half of this series was engaging but as it progresses further it starts to become extremely dull. My biggest complaints are the poor decisions made by characters, (for example: main character taking his daughter on a car chase/ gun fight), stories that's pulled too thin and flat characters that doesn't progress any further. I found myself fast forwarding a lot. Also corruption, being the main focus, wasn't very captivating in pulling you into the story but rather indifferent as to the outcome of the final episode.

5/10.
