Criminal: France

Compared to Criminal UK and Germany, Criminal France is boring. I didn't like any of the stories and there was no great acting, like in the other ones.

I think after watching all the four countries, I would rate France the least , I mean someone had to come 4th! If you watch France first, no doubt you'll be mind blown but after watching UK and other nations , you can identify the flaws and drawbacks of the French cast but still a brilliant series by Netflix.

Just like the German, Spanish and English versions this series is unbelievably good and it's just a shame that the episodes are so short and few. Hopefully they'll develop the concept into a longer series as we're only just getting to know the characters by the end of episode 3.

Great casting and storyline and eminently suitable for adaptation to the stage.

Criminal Germany was outstanding. Especially the first episode was a class. Criminal france has plot holes bad writing the suspects traps them self for stupid reasons etc etc. Not good if second season please don't feed us bad writing again

So out of the 4 identical police stations and resources. 3 episodes each and 4 different teams criminal: France struggled to keep up with its competitors with a weaker casting and perhaps a more bizarre storyline going on behind the secene of the said criminals etc.

You are left scratching your head because you believe one thing as happened then all of a sudden it's changed again.

However , the 3rd episode of the French set is one of the top 3 of them all and maybe on any given day the best so instead of a 7 it gets a 9 .

THIS happened to be the 4th I watched , i completed all 12 in 3 sittings. Very good viewing all round and a Netflix Original, please don't dump it after 1 series .
