Exciting and will keep you on your toes

This drama was one of the most popular dramas in China of 2021. I believe that it has deserved it.

The plot of Crime Crackdown is not unheard of before, however, the fact that it is a real adaptation of real crimes is terrifying. This drama wasn't really scary in a *jump scares* way, but gave me goosebumps all the way through. Throughout the show, you will cry out in anger at the villains, cheer for the main characters and sit there in despair as you watch these terrible events happen, and be reminded that cases like rape and murder happen in real life. It definitely brings out your emotions! Not kidding, but I swear I wanted to reach into the screen and punch some characters' faces off at some point :(

The acting is literally amazing. Don't be scared for cringy acting because all the actors did so well! They are all experienced actors so you won't be put off. I know a lot of people are concerned if Yixing's acting is watchable but I can confidently say that he fit right in! (I especially enjoyed his fighting scenes!)

The plot was done pretty nicely overall, apart from some characters which I thought could've been developed more. However, some scenes might have been cut off so I do understand.

There are also lots of lighthearted moments in the show! The humor is there and the characters are very loveable. I feel like Lin Hao's character was a nice distraction from the heavier scenes and brought some lightness.

Also, at the end of every episode there are montages paying tribute to policement which I thought was so heartwarming :) ! So thank you to all of our hardworking police! The light will always win!

Overall I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this drama if you're looking for some action and mystery, good plot, and fantastic acting! I think that this is a must watch even based off some of the cases in this drama as you really learn a lot!

Thanks for reading this review (and help like it pls!)
