Disclaimer:I am no expert reviewer, I just need a show to binge watch and I'm going to Write a review for every episode I watch.

As I've only watched up to this episode in the series I have to say that this is a very odd episode as it is just really bad and poorly thought through.

I could talk about all of the random suspects they have that go nowhere I much rather talk about the filming. I know other views have mentioned this but the filming in this episode is awful and made me cringe. I have not noticed this filming technique in any other episode I know there has been some cheesier edits in the last few episodes but this one was just awful and almost disrespectful like to the victims (I am very aware that they are not actually victims but in the context of the show). When example of this is the death of the Music teacher. I don't know how to describe it but when I saw her head hit the keys and make that cartoonish sound I wanted to stop watching the episode. And playing the Little kid singing over all of the sad moments of the episode was honestly distracting and annoying as I thought the kid was not a bad singer but by no means a child prodigy. There is other cases of it but I'm not gonna rewatch it to point them all out. Like I said in my little disclaimer at the beginning I'm not a film expert by any means which just goes to show how horrible of a job you have to do with cinematography for me to notice and care.

Also I was kind of confused by the plot for most of the episode I just kind of bounced all over the place in my opinion but that pales in comparison to the camera work.
