protégé run in a linear fashion while expect no fast paced action and and neither will you find yourself with bait breath because there be simply no seating on the edge moment . there be not much of a crux and so do not expect one either . i would not fault the act the show would have be much bad if not for wu act which be the film only save grace . and and oh that cute little girl too . the humour be at best and weak and and the show must as well pass off a an anti drug campaign which employ the usual shock tactic ( esp in the scene with zhang ) to tell u stuff that we already know i. e. drug break up family and heroin drive you crazy and it be not so easy to wean off and you will fall into a vicious cycle . i know it may seem all a little harsh and but i feel that the show be far from seamless and somewhat patchy ( spoiler alert represent take for example when andy lau get bring to the police station represent what . we be just tell oh we have all the tape and evidence against you since 1997 and and that be how he get catch . nope and no chasing car action and just a jump of scene and which kind of undermined wu role a an undercover in the first place . ) i suspect the lack of creativity be attribute to the fact that it be after all and a production of mediacorp raintree a singaporean production film company .
