Sure, the other SUBURRA entries (and the champion, for my money the best TV series ever made, GOMORRA) were stronger. A few situations could have been written and / or directed better, but even a series that delivers "only" 80-90% from that group of film makers delivers more quality, better acting and less artificial storytelling than the usual stuff from the US with all those terrible dialogues. Great atmosphere, as usual very fine visuals and belivable acting makes this series another winner from Italia. Especially the way they dealt with the church I liked a lot, quite brave. (The new series' only minus, for me anyway, is the last episode. Can't wait for the next season!)

Quite disappointed by this new series - the premise was promising, although I feel the characters were a bit too soggy and raw - no energy, very little memorable moments. If you are a fan of Suburra, then this is a must watch to find out how the story develops from the previous series - that's unfortunately about it :/

There was hope for Spadino to develop, unfortunately he is the shadow of himself...The other characters, especially Cinaglia is not as fascinating and exotic. The female character is confusing, and Damiano fails to become a main character - the one that is interesting and intriguing.

Suburra is back after a 3 year hiatus and the news is not good. The original season was outstanding. 'Blood on Rome' was less so, but still good. Everything about this Season is subdued. The action is less, the plot is not as interesting, it's not as violent, or as sexy. Spadino (Giacomo Ferrara) has lost his spark and dresses in black. This season also misses Aureliano (Alessandro Borghi).

The result is a bit like a funeral march to it's inevitable conclusion. The fun is gone. The excitement missing. It's hum-drum and by the numbers. You could see the ending coming from a mile away.

This should be the end of Suburra. RIP!

Sincerely, I expected more from these Italian Netflix Series. What I missed were more emotions, deep characters and some intelligent suspense content in the story. What I saw was the same dynamic in the first package of these episodes without the so important key dealers who lost their lives before.

Some scenes were cool but it was not the same atmosphere I have seen some years ago.

I think the only man who saved this sequel was Spadino from the Anacleti clan played by the top actor Giacomo Ferrara.

The director delivered a good job taking over from a high level of success. He did it quit well sticking together the plots. Who knows if the third season will be better than the last sequel?

6/10.

At the top of the pile you ve got gomorrah and romanza criminale with the 1990s series close behind. The suburras are not up to that standard but are decent enough.unfortunately things go badly wrong with this new series featuring some of the old suburra blood on rome characters who have been furnished with a terrible plot and even worse script.to call many of the scenes corny would be an understatement and the cliches come thick and fast.spadino wears all black including shades,tries to be menacing but is a joke.the ercole character could be in a comedy feature.businessman/fixer type wearing a cheap suit and even cheaper ties.do yourself a favour and give this dross a missi haven t left any spoilers because there s nothing to spoil.
