Quick Final Thoughts – Evil or Live
What the fuck? Did Tencent REALLY produce a show about how internet addiction is evil?
Oh, my god, that’s hilarious. Whoever gave this a green light should be fired.
It’s like if Marlboro made an after school special where Jimmy’s dad dies of lung cancer because he smokes too many Marlboros.
The concept is nonsense. Our main character gets kidnapped to a rehab facility for internet addiction that works more like prison meets military school, and apparently the teachers can get away with beating the ever living shit out of twelve year olds while looking like they’re getting off on it.
What the actual fuck was this? The art style is really grainy and washed out, the concept raises too many questions (how much time on the internet is too much time? What if they’re taking classes or something productive like that, does that count towards the number? Why do they drag their new students (who they literally refer to only as “trash”) into a dark, empty room?) and the whole thing is a dumpster fire. It’s like if you took Prison School and removed everything that made it interesting or watchable.
1/10.
