Review (4/5)
Voot Select Candy is really an amazing web series. The actions, story-line, thriller twists, sound effects, production quality and impactful acting by all the actors and team.
The story is itself very complicated and wrapped. But inspite of twist and turns in story the director is amazingly able to create one-by-one scenes and connecting events. The transition of story to the past events and present events are beautifully linked. Everyone appreciates the quality work because of the good direction of the series. It is easy for audience to understand what is actually going on with story-line. This might be the reason for its good rating.
The best thing about the series is we can’t predict the actual mastermind or monster without the 8th episode. But it is also possible that the creators will create its second season too. As the story is still incomplete because of some hooky scenes in the last episodes that have to unwrap more the behind stories. Probably creators intentionally add those scene so that they can start a new season with it.
Almost everyone appreciates this thriller series on social media. The engagement of viewership is terrific. IMDb rated it 9.1, that’s all terrific. Even the performance of the crew and team was amazing, Fans really like the thrilling experience.
