Review of Voice

Voice (2019–2020)
8/10
Better Than I'd Hoped
6 September 2022
I hadn't seen the Korean version on which this is based, but I don't care - this will do fine. Decent acting, good stories, memorable characters, and very good filmmaking. Entertaining. I don't ask for much more. I don't watch a series expecting "Citizen Kane" - level excellence. It's 2022, and I just want my film experiences to be worthwhile. And they are - it's a golden age of filmmaking we're living in, and I'm thrilled that Asian cinema is among the best stuff out there.

I'd like to know more about individual actors here and how they and the Korean actors differ in their characterizations differ. And how alike and us alike the different series are. It's a shame the Korean version isn't on Netflix, as this one currently is, for comparison.

When the Danish/Swedish series "The Bridge" was released, it was so profoundly great that there was produced a French/English version ("The Tunnel") and an American/Mexican version ("The Bridge") , neither of which could compete with the Scandinavian original; should there be an American or English version of "The Voice," it will have a built-in audience. Maybe - the American/Mexican version of "The Bridge" was pretty awful.
