My first time (I believe) watching an action and police procedural tv show from Hong Kong. Quite an amazing show it was!
The different dialogue's totally fit the character's who uttered them. As I progressed bit by bit through the show, I could feel my liking for certain characters building all the time, as well as my hatred for other characters. I was silently cheering and praying for the main character, Sheung Sing, who had been horrifically wounded with a bullet to the head, but miraculously survived. Now, as he battles this memory, he has a lot more on his plate, including, catching "The Commander" and his crew, who were responsible for his injury, be around more for his little daughter and wife, and, keep an eye on, and expose the inner ambition and selfishness of Man Hei-wah, the Assistant Commissioner, who is stopping at nothing to have her way, and become the leader Commissioner.
I especially loved all the stunts and action! All the car flips, crashes, and explosions were so lifelike and realistic! In the final episode, the stunts were so epic, I was holding my breath, crossing my fingers, and cheering the heroes on, in their final confrontation with The Commander.
The Defected will show you the struggles of keeping authority, law, and power in the right hands, and using them in the best way, for the greater good of the city, its people, and for you and your workers. Check it out on Netflix or Tubi!
