A Shop for Killers (2024– )
5/10
"Listen up, Jian"
10 February 2024
While I enjoyed most action scenes (camerawork, stunts and production were the highlight of the series), I quite liked most of the main characters (with a few exceptions) and the Shopping mall setting was interesting in theory.. there were many elements that I didn't like.

The story is a bit long-winded, unnecessarily repetitive in parts and with a structure and slow pacing that doesn't do it any favors! Plus a predictable resolution, forgettable dialogue and the now tiring Korean character traits that are overused on villains.. and you get something that wasn't particularly satisfactory to me. Specially because it seems to try and use too many ideas, while something simpler would have been better.

Still, I feel like it could be a popular series for the average viewer! Specially now that there's a "lack" of American productions coming out.
