Critic Review
The last part of this episode showed how his lawyer analyzed the situation and explained to him the chances he had if he framed the scene.
The acting and the scenes are overwhelming. The Production Crew did an amazing job especially the Director who was careful in delivering a nearly perfect job. It is a must watch.
The role played by Hero depicts what happens in our daily lives. Sometimes, we face pressure that will make us compromise our standards.
The portrayal of Glockz as a influential man even though we didn’t see him in the movie was thrilling and amazing.
Jamil was portrayed as a powerful person and a person with a kind heart too unlike what we see with drug dealers who are usually portrayed to be heartless, cruel and serial killers. There was every reason Jamil should have killed Hero from day one but he didn’t. Jamil had a kind heart and was so smart about his business. He knew is business well and understood his surroundings better.
