Let me start with this single line comment I extracted from Wikipedia:-

"Wang Kaihao of the China Daily says the series bears a resemblance of Breaking Bad, the fictional American series that compared to the actual event."

I wonder in which part of the drama resembles Breaking Bad?? The only similarity is they both involved meths.. One is based on a real-life event, and the other one is purely fictitious Maybe Wang saw something you and I missed, or maybe he suffered from the hallucination from the meth he took while watching The Thunder.

I find The Thunder one of the very best if not THE best Police Drama series anywhere!!! Everyone is great in it! I cannot pile enough praise on Johnny Huan g Jing Yu acting in the drama, He as a list of veterans from both China and Hong Kong China sharing the same limelight and he held his own! For such a young actor with no former acting training, he is amazing. In some ways he stole the show, playing the young impetuous, very smart, impatient, upright and cocky. He aced his characters. A job very well done! Someone to watch out for.

As for the story, apart from the actions and the plotting on both sides were quite quite well done, there was also the relationship between Li Fei and Zhao Jialiang was pretty amazing too, and certainly pulled hard on my heartstrings. Li Weimin character was also very impressive and believable.

I love love the series and I can't wait to find out what happened in the end.... And When I do I shall add more comments. Until then....
