Cold Game jdorama review

 

WHAT IS COLD GAME?

In the future, the world has frozen solid. Cold Game is set in a school shelter where a bunch of people have evacuated to and a politician is running this school shelter. In this shelter, families are given priority over single people and 4 people led by Hada Michiko have grouped together as a fake family for their own purposes.

If you have watched Snowpiercer or any wasteland survival movie, Cold Game is the same except its not as dark and its more feel good.

WHY YOU SHOULD WATCH IT?

+ Hada Michiko is very good in it. I have always been a fan since and she has always been relegated to supporting roles but its so good watching her do a meaty leading role. She is so good in the role of Kimura Shoko.

+ Pacing is brisk and the 8 episodes finished in no time!

+ So easy to root for the Kimura family.

+ Lots of twists and turns, betrayals and revelations but its so fun.

+ For a low budget jdorama, they have been able to do a convincing Snowpiecer set in a school.

WHY SHOULD YOU NOT WATCH IT?

- There is no reason not to watch Cold Game unless you are in winter at the moment and your heater is dead.

 

SUMMARY

Very fun and watchable jdorama and great performance by Hada Michiko. I got the subtitles for Cold Game from d-addicts but I can't find the subtitle post anymore. Has it been deleted?
