Flip Review

If the show could match up to the standards of its description, it would have delivered an astounding experience, but it is yet another disappointment that claims ingenuity but screams mediocrity. It tries to dwell into dark, obscure corners of the human brain and reflect on the possibility of lives turning into dystopian nightmares if morals and rationale cease to exist. While that seems bad-ass, the attempt miserably falls face-first into failure.

From life-altering superstitions to traumatizing bullying, while 'Flip' does have some interesting ideas, they, however, are eclipsed by loosely held execution that fails to make any impact. The first episode, about a real-life hunting game, where participants kill human targets brought to an isolated island from mental institutions is actually as exhilarating as it sounds, but the subsequent episodes have weak plots and a godspeed deterioration in quality.

Except for the first episode, the rest of the series is neither dark nor compelling. That being said, there is still an attempt at crafting something irregular which cannot be overlooked.
