Just brilliant. I live in Warsaw since I was born. And my grandma also. She told me how then life in Warsaw look like. Amazing series. Good creation, good stuf, good music and photos. Absolutly must see.

Excellent series, I really enjoyed watching it. The plot is gripping from the start and keeps you engaged throughout, right up to the unexpected twist at the end. It manages to perfectly combine genres, with elements of both WW11 and gangster-type series. Historical references seem to be accurate.

Great acting by all involved, with particularly memorable performances by Michal Zurawski (Jakub Szapiro), Magdalena Boczarska (Ryfka Kij) and Borys Szyc, who is particularly sinister in his role as Janusz Radziwilek ("The Doctor").

Visuals are well done throughout, in particular some of the interior sets.

This is hands down the best European series of 2020/21, full credit to director Jan P. Matuszynski for creating a masterpiece. You don't need to understand Polish to enjoy it (I don't). English subtitles are available. Make the effort, it will not disappoint.

I would have enjoyed a second season but this seems unlikey as the plot reached a natural conclusion. As it stands, it is complete.

I thought that the novel would make a great TV series and it certainly has. Cinematic and better than a lot of actual films. A great ensemble cast of characters delivers a layered story. Not for the faint hearted.

I agree with most of the reviewers here. This is a very well done series, the year is 1937, Poland, you gotta know what's coming, and the folks there are largely clueless of this danger, being involved in politcal and criminal intrigues of their own. Szapiro, Buddy, Radziwilek and his side kick Eduardo are all exellent characters. What a dynamic of opposing forces. I thought the interiors, scenery and costumes were good, too. If you are a fan of Sopranos, Umbre and Gommorah, this is another good one for you.

Absolutely great series I've ever seen. Everything it's just great there. Period of time makes this film fantastic as well.
