Knight Fall
Somewhere out there...
A highschool setting : Common, Wholesome and Average
While it does have a wholesome plot which makes the story pure and fluffy because of the highschool setting.. There still some points that are lacking in the series...
The first one would be the flow of the plot or simply the transition of the scenes.. I find some of the acting scenes to be choppy or unorganized.. That's why sometimes I'd be getting the feeling of dullness from the show...
The second one would be the fact that somehow... even though I'm a fan of slow burn and melodramatic romances / relationships, I find myself not getting hooked with this... which is kind of disappointing for me.. I understand that the premise of the show is the typical school setting romance.. Still, the monotony of the show killed my interest with it...
The third one that also bothered me would be underdeveloped back story of the side couples which is definitely needed to justify the characters' actions / relationships in the story.. We didn't really get to see why some of the side characters are uncomfortable in getting in a relationship.. Why they were afraid etc.. They could have better addressed these issues if only this series had additional episodes.. For example : I find the scene of Tong Fah getting into an accident to be pretty abrupt with no logical explanation whatsoever as to why that suddenly happened.. Basically, there are so many scenarios that happened in the show that were not even addressed or developed properly..
Another thing that also bothered me is the relevance of the title of the show which is a second chance.. Although I see the choices that they made with the show, I just find the title of the series not justified with all the six episodes that I've watched...
Lastly, the chemistry between all the couples seemed to be a bit dry or lacking to me.. There are some cute little moments between the characters that were really nice but there are also some moments which really felt dry or unnatural..
In conclusion, If you're looking for something light hearted to watch.. You can definitely add this to your watch list... The plot is easy to follow because it's common.. The acting and OST is so-so for me since I understand that this has a low budget and the cast are new.. Anyway, this is just my opinion so I won't be discouraging people to watch it. So, Enjoy watching... :)
