Crime Is Her Game - 2019 - France Crime Is Her Game - 2019 - 6/10 AKA - Le Crime Lui va si Bien French female buddy cop mini-series. Straitlaced, by-the-book transplant from the city, and the local who shirks protocol and actually does illegal acts. The chemistry is awkward, the mysteries routine, supporting players mere caricatures. Notwithstanding, this never takes itself too seriously. Murders here and there, amidst jokes and jibes. Mid-tier, but acceptable when you want a break from cozy or Scandinavian. -

Missing Noir M - 2008 - S Korea Missing Noir M - 2008 - 8/10 AKA - Siljongneuwareu M // 실종느와르 M “A history of injustice manipulating justice to kill off justice.” Exceptional K-drama. Bleak, true-to-life, set amidst modern realities. A small team is formed to work on unsettled cold cases. An ex-FBI agent with too many killings for the Bureau. A hot-headed cop. A computer hacker with a past. The opener is a two-parter, with clues for imminent murders, ala Se7en. There are other two-parters, as well as stand-alones. Contrary to the usual clichéd formats, the team don’t exactly bond, but begin to buckle under the stress. The final episodes are pitch black and, unfortunately, eerily prescient of today’s normal. For those skeptical of justice in this world, in this life, this is for you. -

Devil’s Diner - 2025 - Vietnam Devil’s Diner - 2025 - 7/10 AKA - Tiem an Cua Quy The dark companion to Midnight Diner, as this is where visitors lose their souls. This presupposes human nature is inherently evil, and weak. Sins include greed, anger, delusion, pride, suspicion. Diners enter, and with a smile, the owner coaxes them toward retribution, and eventual payment. While cloaked in Horror, this has definite Asian sensibilities. Revenge, while sweet, carries a cost, a terrible cost. Acting ranges from adequate to excellent. Everything else, pretty accomplished.
