Scherben von ihr

I read reviews here and there's a 1/10 review and I couldnt say he's totally wrong. I hv the same feeling after finishing episode one and want to give up given such a non sense. But after the car accident and storyline goes into a completely different world it just start becoming interesting. Is it a parallel world? Is what happen before is a hypothetical situation ? Is that a dream? Things didn't make sense and add up all in a sudden. Her boyfriend from a business world transformed to become a cop, that didn't explain. While watching, things becoming clear bit by bit and it is quite a kinda situation happened in Chinese society. I love the meaningful behind and Taiwanese drama didn't always convey a message and this is the one too.

I couldn't even finish the 1st episode and decided to drop it right away. I have read the three critics' reviews. One is absolutely terrible, didn't say anything. Another blindly praised it without any merit. Only the 3rd one gave a more realistic review and gave it a barely watchable rating.

How could such a sharp, cool, very capable and talented headhunter woman would be so helpless and victimized by a thug-like guy, to be harassed on the day 1 he show up in the company she works? The crazy guy is a completely, illogically arranged to serve the purpose for the drama series, a psychopath from America and his only goal is to harass this No.1 moneymaker of the headhunt company? Taiwan is such a small island and yet it seems to give the viewers that Taipei is a metropolitan mega city with lot of international big companies, so the headhunting business is so booming and so profitable. Give me a break!

Netflix is another drama with the theme of protecting women. Similar dramas strongly recommend the Maid starring Margaret Curry, which involves sexual assault on campus and sexual crimes in the workplace. A successful person who can earn millions of dollars to be on the cover of a magazine by her own ability, it seems that just because she is a woman, she will hear such low-level discussions about being on the top of a woman's sex. The director reshapes the past of the woman leader in a way of traversing a parallel world, Fragmented clips add a sense of suspense. Xu Weining really looks good without dead corners at 360 degrees. The better she looks, the more heartbroken she feels!

Shards of Her was an intense thrill ride and keeps you gripped. Episode one sets it up, but the spike starts at episode two and beyond. I enjoyed the acting from these well known Taiwanese actress/actors. The mystery is so thick you can cut it with a knife. The cinematography is well done and the sets representative of the time period.

Despite these elements, I did find the last segments a bit draggy and frustrating that no one is communicating properly. I found it quite irriating waiting for the secret to be revealed (although the secret is becoming more obvious as each moment passes).

Good thriller/drama.

My wife and I were disappointed in episode one with everything going on. We even waited for three weeks to watch something else and come back. But oh man, it speeds up after episode 2 and 3, and the plot takes a huge turn, even feel like a completely different show. The acting, storyline, relationships are strong and touching. I would highly recommend keeping going on even if you don't like the first episode. It's very worthy and meaningful to many people around us.

Don't give up, just like the show suggest. Please stand with and support all the victims around the world. Very good Taiwanese show.
