Bad Guys

This series is a variation on the concept of fare like The Dirty Dozen, The A-Team, etc. Assemble a crew of bad-ass criminals to catch the sort of demented spree killers that normal policing can't handle. So a pair of grief-stricken cops spring three convicts with "a particular set of skills" to hunt down the latest serial killer terrorizing the city, and responsible for their own pain.

The show's assets are numerous. Complex, diverse protagonists with many layers to their nature, taking time to peel back. There's far more blood, gore and close-up fighting here than in the vast majority of action tales made for small screens. And the scripts include some touches of humor that relieve tension and flesh out personalities.

The downside is that 9 or 10 episodes worth of story are stretched to 12, largely with overuse of flashbacks and repetitious clips showing what someone remembers. That makes some of the later episodes drag annoyingly before finally reaching a suitably rousing climax. No big cliffhanger. This can stand as a complete entity, or warrant a second season. If the latter, I'll be ready for another binge.

The Series have a very mild start , with every going episode we explore many aspects of the same character, the cast have done a great job , the character being so distinct makes it even better seeming like all are just connected by a thread while it present you something far greater , It have Action , Thriller , Comedy, A great plot , although character themselves are not relatable but their aspects are. The Comic timming is great and Action scenes are really good sometimes but the sfx spoils the fun. Saying more about it will lead to spoiler, surely check out (I watched it even though some episode had subtitles issue and I don't understand Thai). It was worth it

Why not 10/10 ?

The Direction was not too good and some scenes felt emotionless.

It contains some plot holes.

Series fails to answer some of Major Question making it feel soo random.

And ofc the sfx.

This show's storytelling seems to depend on all too frequent and repetitive flashback scenes where a weirdo scoops up handfuls of fresh blood, smears it on his nose, and exclaims "I love the smell".

Once, twice, maybe, but countless blood lust reenactments are creepy indulgences that I don't want to watch.

It's unnerving to think that anyone would want to watch it, and it's especially unnerving to think that people that have no presumed opinion might watch it and begin to become accustomed to the gruesomeness depicted. WTF watches this stuff?

The characters are time worn memes or goofy caricatures, but that's not necessarily a problem. The actors do their job well, but the poor quality story telling and missing plot line negates any contribution the actors provided.

The production design is cartoonish in a made for stage interpretation of late century graphic novel.

There is zero suspension of disbelief.

The location scouting seemed to emphasize "low-budget". The location shots seemed to suggest there was never enough time to set up a shot the editor could make good use of.

I don't usually write reviews but this show left me feeling so self conscious for lacking the resolve to turn it off sooner that I needed to process the trauma and write about it here.

If you watch it. Good luck, you are going to need it.

This drama is so underrated !! It was so good not just action but some comedy scenes too and tbh i noticed that Thai people have better sense of humor than the koreans i mean its so natural and not so cringe or artificial .. It may not be as good as Kdramas for sure but give it a try because its really amazing and deserve the attention i enjoyed watching it.

I guess Thai dramas need better marketing so it can reach to everyone .. If you want something different with a little bit touch of kdramas then go for " Bad guys " Thank for everyone worked hard on this show Looking forward more Thai dramas like this.
