Deca zla

The book is great, the story is phenomenal, but I gave it a bad rating only because of the casting of the actors. The main actor, a lawyer, is not even close to what I imagined when I read it, but he played the role very badly. Unbelievable and it ruined my viewing of the series! Also, some inserted scenes are completely unnecessary, you should have stuck to the book, which I recommend to everyone, if you like excellent thrillers. A little drawn out, a little high scene and it's no wonder that the impression is spoiled!

The production team that worked on this series is well known in Serbia and they have already proven themselves to be incredible masters at destroying most things they can get their hands on. Unfortunately, this, like most things in Serbia, is laced with politics and ignorance!

Give yourself chance to be entertained by both medium, because each of them will give you unique perspective and feeling. Book "Deca zla" by Miodrag Majic is complex, multilayered and very fast read, which you will be enjoying it immensely. Also, this was one of the best book adaptation in Serbian cinematography. Perfect choice of actors, locations, tone of the action gave us harmonious story line. Time well spent in a written world as well as visual one. Book "Deca zla " and tv series deserve all accolades that you hear these days from people who were fortunate to read a book and watched tv series to regional tv stations. Delighted!

In this day and age where emphasis is placed on flashy images and other visual effects, this series brings a breath of fresh air by actually focusing on the story and acting - I was hooked from the get go. Same feeling I got when watching some of the other series on HBO, like "The night of" or "Mare from Easttown". Everything from the storyline to the actors and down to the title itself, just fits. The actors in particular are very good, and to me no one really stands out but they all mesh into one great performance.

I sincerely hope it becomes a success and the writer's other books get a chance to play out on screen.

Great job.

Suspenseful, emotional, yet doesn't lack funny moments.

The storyline unfolds at a somewhat slow pace, yet manages to captivate the audience's attention. What sets "Deca Zla" apart is its deliberate avoidance of explicit sex scenes and the absence of gratuitous violence - a refreshing departure from the prevalent trend in contemporary Serbian cinema, which often leans heavily on showcasing excessive bloodshed and nudity.

A significant flaw lies in the predictability - by the 7th episode, I accurately predicted almost every twist and turn.

Radovan Vujovic delivers an outstanding performance. Jana Milosavljevic is impressive, flawlessly sheds her Eastern European accent. Her performances in this series is truly noteworthy. Nikola Kojo, as expected, delivers a consistently strong performance. Ana Franic, in her limited role, shines brilliantly. Mihailo Laptosevic, who takes on the role of the antique dealer, might have a limited time on screen but his performance exudes authenticity, warmth, and brilliance. Emina Muftic, portraying Munevera, is truly enchanting.

On the other side, Anica Dobra is a major disappointment. Jovana Stojiljkovic seems to fall into the trap of consistently displaying the same facial expressions and diction, as if she is perpetually playing the same character, regardless of the role. And does she really need to be featured in a sex scene in every film or show she appears in? Milica Janevski is good, but sometimes overacting. Slaven Doslo - his acting skills seem ... lacking.

A very good choice of actors who are experienced and have a long career. The acting is excellent. The actors did well in their roles. The story is very creepy and on the other hand very interesting. The series also featured the song which was a Balkan hit many years ago, and is played every time there are murders, which makes the song even more creepy. Each subsequent episode makes you want to watch the series more and more. The main character himself is a lawyer, which shows that the same job and plot are not boring, but presented in an interesting way. It's worth a look.

The series left a very good impression.
