Big Mouth

Big Mouth got off to a fast start. I liked how the story introduced Park ChangHo's character and how abruptly everything changed. What a crazy ride it's been! From an incompetent, debt-ridden lawyer, he was tagged as one of the most notorious criminals in the country, Big Mouse. Every episode was fascinating and heart-racing, adding layers to various mysteries.

The story's progression was intense, continuously pulling viewers off-balance with puzzles to answer, which may have been too much because the ending didn't do it justice. This might easily have been a 10, but the finale left so many loose ends. Although I don't have a problem with Ko MiHo's death, the ending felt rushed. Again, they mentioned the elderly man's serial killer son, but he didn't appear, which confused me because he seemed vital to the plot. I also despise the fact that no one appeared concerned about HyeJin being murdered by her husband.

Aside from these flaws, ChangHo's character development was excellent. It's an incredible depiction of how desperation and the struggle for survival affect people in extraordinary ways. This was exciting to see that the main topic wasn't the revelation of Big Mouse's identity, but how ChangHo himself changed to be his version of Big Mouse.

The dynamic between ChangHo and JiHoon was fantastic. What an unusual and powerful relationship! Although I wish we had spent more time on this bond. I particularly enjoyed the friendships created between ChangHo and several of his fellow inmates. I always love seeing characters develop positive relationships.

All of the actors gave outstanding performances, particularly the female leads. Lee Jong Suk's best work to date. Kim JooHun acted magnificently, as usual. I swear I wanted to kill his character myself.

Overall, except for the final episode, this kdrama has been nothing short of brilliant.

"Lee Jong suk" the actor that never fails to entertain us with his masterclass acting and must say what an acting by Yoona she indeed worked hard for this drama. The cast are too perfect for their specific roles. Anyone hesitating to watch this drama, please do try it's just perfect in my opinion ( I have been watching K-drama since 3 year just for your clarification). Every episode has its own impact and full of logical suspension.

Big Mouth is the perfect example of a classic thriller. The increasingly high ratings for all the episodes indicate just how riveting the show is. Sadly, where one would expect it to end with a bang, it concludes with more of a fizzle.

If you're looking for intrigue and shock, then Big Mouth has it for you. The plot is fast-paced, gripping and ticks all the thriller check-boxes. There are twists and turns, alliances and political games, and a realistic look at how hierarchies and power structures work. Packed with suspense, the moments of revelation are some of the show's best scenes.

A story is only as effective as its ending. If it can't stick the landing, all the preceding hours of excellence can feel like a waste. This is the problem with Big Mouth. While it gave us fourteen enthralling episodes, the last two just don't live up to the same quality and rushed without any development towards the end at all. All in all, Big mouth is still a strongly crafted thriller which should be watched fpr it's tension and suspense, with a subtle pinch of romance.

My Rating : 8.5/10.

The story was very gripping, but I didn't enjoy how cold the first character was behaving towards his dying wife. He should have shown more affection and emotions for his terminally ill wife who showed a lot of courage and bravery to help him with the process. It felt like the couple were shy to show affection towards each other in the movie! Also the very important ending details for dragging the evil characters down shouldn't have been squeezed in the very last 5 mins of the series! It was like the casts and the crew got bored decided to end the important details that way! By the way, the chairman's serial killer son needed more attention in the series!

TBH I can into this show with low expectations. Starts off just like typical dramas, but boy, do the plot twists blow you mind and have you applauding. The actors are great too. You find yourself running home to see the next episode. Of courses there are great performances to pull all this off.

If you do get past the first half of the first episode you will be hooked, rooting for the characters.

They should also do a western remake of this.

This is an unexpected joy. A masterpiece.
