Tokyo Trial (2016)
9/10
Entertaining and informative
29 April 2020
I ended up watching all the four episode back, so I found it very interesting. The use of black and white clips for courtroom scenes along with those old sounding trial audio gives a nice sense of taking back to those times. Most of the actors did a great job at giving a true feeling of being from the country they are representing (except for the Chinese one perhaps). I believe it is impossible to be completely fair when dealing with a subject like this. And there will always be many important related subjects and events that won't be covered as much as they deserved to be. So you have to take it as form of informative entertainment and realize that there might be biases of the production houses involved. Overall for me it serves the purpose of informing me about a very important historical event in an entertaining way without too much biased viewpoint. And I did some readings after watching it in an attempt to filter the biases that this could have imposed.
