Helping the dead once again before they finally leave the present life
This is the first and only Ferryman series I've watched, and i didn't expect this to be a Singapore based drama. Filming was done in JB/Malaysia. Characters mixed with Taiwan/Malaysian/Singaporeans.The storyline is great, 1 or 2 episodes per story. The CGI used in the drama was quite well made. Kudos to the team for making it good. Each story have a reason behind its happenings and how the trio solves it. For this, I feel it being very heartfelt whenever the story ends - like how they help the dead finish their final wishes, before sending them away.
However, the acting is not too wow for me. Not bad, but just doesn't wow me. The acting felt a bit held back by the actors themselves, whereby you can feel a slight barrier between them. Not sure could it be because of the genre of the drama itself, they were trying to held back or what so. Either way, I still enjoyed the drama despite of this. The story is quite enjoyable to my liking.
Whether I'll be rewatching it, definitely not any time soon. Though the drama was enjoyable for me, but story itself doesn't urge me to rewatch.

Great storyline but I feel so helpless.....
I have just finished watching 2 episodes, and I can’t bear to write a few words about this.The story line is 10/10 but their acting makes me feel so helpless.
Sorry to say but the 2 main male roles acting skills are not what I expecting for.
It feels like they only express 70% roles sentiment.
Just imagine that they showed you wonderland but when you were almost there, even you could see how beautiful the place was, but then they STOP and keep playing near by.
Just.... helpless -_______-
