There was a lot of promise here. The set up is plausible. The execution was not. The writers required too much suspension of belief to pull this off. Its a shame because most of it wasn't required. They couldn't help but go "Hollywood".

The main protaganists were ok. The acting was there. The on location filming and musical scoring were on point. Another good point was breaking the episodes down into one hour episodes. You are able to digest a lot because of good pacing.

There are some background side stories that are sprinkled in but not enough to bog the main story down. Overall its a good series if you can get past the implausible moments and is well worth a watch.

Ended up binge watching it in 2 days, watched it with subtitles great story, great action.

Appreciated all the cinematography - colour grading down to a tee.

All the tactical kit and gear, oscar with a devil on one shoulder an angel on the other listening to both a different times, a good guy albeit with a bad streak.

You don't quite get the reason why but you figure out his panic attacks are PTSD from his Army days.

Great character relationships, you can follow how everyone knows each other and how it's all intertwined, two mafia families struggling for power after a streak of paranoia sets the fire below them.

This is the best thing I've watched for years -

The acting, direction, writing , music and pace are all spot on.. There's not a wasted moment and the action scenes are awesome and utterly gripping

But what I really loved (and only the best series do this) is that iit takes you to places, in your mind, that you don't expect to be taken to - it jall ust kind of creeps up on you and without truly knowing why., you know that you are watching something special.

While part of me hopes that there will be a second series, the other part of me is saying, leave it alone, don't ruin things, it's brillant as it is.
