Introduction
Hi everybody,
I'm @shawnnft. The drama I'm covering today is Reset (2022); it's a Chinese drama with a mystery & thriller genre. It has 15 episodes which are roughly around 45 minutes per episode. I watched this drama at home and it took me around two days to finish.
Short Synopsis Of The Movie
I don't want to spoil the drama so I will give a short synopsis of the drama in a few sentences using my own words and then give my thoughts on the drama in the next section. The drama is about a guy and a girl living the same day over and over again and dying in a bus. They aren't sure why this is happening to them. In addition to that, they have to figure out whether it's possible to escape this cycle and go on to the next day. If this plot seem interesting for you, you will have to watch to find out what happens!
My Thoughts On The Drama
Personally, I found this drama to be amazing. The actor and actress pair, Bai Jing Ting & Zhao Jin Mai, that played the two main characters, Xiao He Yun & Li Shi Qing, did a great job at acting and bringing out the emotions of their character. I found the chemistry between the characters to be interesting. They had the same goal of trying to escape the loop however Xiao He Yun is the type that wants to find out everything first while Li Shi Qing is the type to act first and think later which did give some conflict in the drama. The supporting characters were great as well as they helped the people watching gain additional information from seeing their perspective.
I really enjoyed the plot of this drama. The drama unexpectedly had a lot of depth to it. The drama kept me interested because it kept me guessing and wanting to know how they would break the loop of reliving the same day. Episode by episode, I would learn more and more things about the situation surrounding the time loop because with each time loop the characters experienced something different as well as obtaining new information they hadn't before. With this information, I would make some educated guesses on what I thought would happen. To my surprise, the plot didn't go as I imagined it would. It's full of twists and turns which I loved.
Conclusion + Trailer Of The Drama
If you made it here, thank you so much for reading and I hope you will give this drama a chance. This drama is worth watching even if you don't know Chinese; you can watch with subtitles. In my opinion, the drama had good acting and a good plot. If you enjoy watching shows like CSI which always makes you guess who the killer is, then this is the drama for you. So what would you do if you lived the same moment over and over again and that involved having to experience death every time?
