Detention

I liked almost everything about this!

The storyline was good, even though sometimes it seemed a bit slow but everything was revealed in a neat way.

The visual effects were great, the actors did a good job, I did feel myself getting more and more connected with each character, even the ones that pissed me off.

I also love how everything came together in the end. Vengeance does bring more pain and that's what this series was trying to tell us. Sometimes just acceptance is enough to bring you peace.

I say go for it if you're into paranormal/psychological shows.

I see people complaining about it not being a horror, I honestly didn't even go into it thinking of it as a horror so my expectations weren't high in that regard. It was still nice regardless.

"Detention" is a slow-burn series with a great twist. While I don't know much about Chinese history, I can sense that they did a good job incorporating it into the storyline. Additionally, like many Chinese movies, the message is very profound and thought-provoking. It keeps me reflecting on the importance of facing difficulties instead of burying them and how love can be both beautiful and painful. The horror aspect of the series is not overly scary and avoids jump scares or grotesque ghosts, making it more psychologically intriguing than terrifying. Overall, it's a unique blend of horror, history, and emotional depth.

This series has a good plot and it is slightly different from the movie which is a good thing to me. This is a ghost story but barely a horror one. Well...there are one or two typical scary scenes in the earlier episodes, but that's all about it. If you expect to see an intense horror/thriller or fast-paced series, it is probably not one for you. However, there is a good story and the series is well made (the CG part needs some improvement tho).

The first two episodes are okay But it goes south from there. Episode 5 is by far the worst, totally waste of time. If Espinosa 5 is made to make their relationship explicit, I would it's meaningless. If this is a horror, not terrible at at. If this is a love story, the relationship is so cliche and boring. If this is a psychological/mental, all you have is a fragile naive girl and a mental loser mom. Plots are so easily predicted. Either the writer loses his focus or the series has nothing to do with the movie. If you don't like the first two, no need to go further.

This never got going, boring from start to finish the story was so much overdone with supernatural confusion, the last two episodes were painful to watch cannot recommend this series....honestly
