    The “nice” policeman

    Type: drama

    Genre: crime, detective

    Year: 2004-07-18 to 2004-09-26

    Summary:

    Nagai Tetsuo is a probation officer who’s married to Junko, a doctor, and has a son. One day, his wife is murdered and his son is injured in an attack.

    Nagai comes home late and fails to hold the attacker. Nagai takes his son to the hospital run by his father-in-law, but his son is attacked again and left in a coma.

    Nagai is being suspected by the police. He becomes a fugitive, and tries to prove his innocence. What he finds is a shocking revelation.

    Critique:

    The cast consists of mostly famed actors(actresses). Some show themselves at their best. I have no complains here.

    Even though, it starts out as a seemingly ordinary family drama the tension gets build up very quickly while turning into a crime show. It’s not your typical of the mill japanese crime/police show, though. It’s a bit more like a thriller as a show than as a movie. It looks like a movie than a Japanese TV show.

    It’s somewhat more complex in terms of people and relationships than your typical straight forward detective show. All in all it’s a great show.

    Verdict: 8.3

    Cast 8

    Cast performance 8

    Script/Directing: 9
