Vortex

This was the best mini series i have seen in a long time. They did a great job handling the sticky nature of time paradox's. The actors were great, & the story was very well written. And since it is in French, I had to watch it with English sub-titles, which is always a challenge. But it still was great. I only hope some day there will either be an English remake of it, or someone will add English voice dubbing, for us dumb Americans. If I could give it a rating of 12-13, I would. I strongly suggest you watch it for yourself. If you are interested in the idea of time shifts, parallel realities, & like a good story that pulls at your heart strings, you won't be disappointed.

Very nice TV show with just 6 episodes that, if you have the time, worth the shot.

It is sci fi but nothing too flashy or exagerated. There is some "new tech" and some time travelling/vortex, something that Im particularly fan of.

The caracthers are well developed and the pace of the show is quite nice too.

Despite I guessed who is the killer (thats something that, unfourtunately, is happing many times with me when Im watching a mistery movie/tv show) the plot is well written.

Furthermore you will find some good actors that composes a diversified cast, some of them well known, even if you are not particularly an expert in french cinema or tv.

I gave this series a 10 because the storyline just blew me away. Wow! Talk about creative. It combines virtual reality with reality of the past. As the story progresses things that change in the past have significant consequences in the futures. The acting is really first-rate and the series is one that you will want to binge watch, it is that good. It has a lot of interesting characters and while serious can be very humorous at times. You will be hard pressed to find a more interesting story than this. Whether you are a Sci-Fi fan or looking for a drama, this is one show that will hold your interest. Well worth watching.

I've seen many of the best time travel shows and this show definitely holds its own and is amazing in its own right! Love everything about this show. I am so surprised it has so few reviews on IMDB! But hopefully that will change now that it's on Netflix! The score should definitely be higher than just 7.1. God bless the writers and everyone else involved on this incredible show! It's obvious from how high quality this is that they worked hard to make this special.

From the very start, Vortex gripped me and it never let me go! It's extremely well-acted, the characters are complex & multi-dimensional and well-written all the way through! They all have their own personalities and definitely aren't bland, which sets it apart from the problems plaguing most crime dramas and other mind-bending shows. I cared about the characters.

Nothing comes off as cliche or uninspired. I was never bored once in the entire show. The plot is complex but still easy to follow along with and gripping too. Not once did I feel the urge to increase the speed on Netflix.

The lead actors, Tomer Sisley and Camille Claris, are phenomenal (but so is everyone else on the show). The makeup they do for aging some characters in the future timeline is some of the best I've seen. The beard and long hair on Tomer Sisley looks so real that I wasn't even sure if it was the same actor!

I've seen a LOT of time travel shows/movies, including many of the best ones like Dark, Lost, Timecrimes, Triangle, Frequency, Mirage for example. Of those, the show really is most similar to the tv show Frequency and the movie Mirage. I believe the writers may have been inspired by the Frequency (which was an amazing underrated show, a lot better than the original film), but Vortex is even way better, managing to improve the concept and reinvent it into its own thing.

This show has a very interesting form of time travel and the rules it set stayed consistent throughout the show. It's now definitely one of my favorite pieces of time travel media! I am looking forward to see what each of the creators/writers, Camille Couasse, Sarah Farkaz, Franck Thilliez (idea), and Marine Lachenaud come up with next!

This is a simply excellent short series. The plot twists and turns, the acting all round is superb and red herrings are thrown at you all the time! But what a ride!

You need to suspend disbelief just a little but the cast are so engaging it wasn't hard to do so at all.

The plot revolves around a young couple, one a policeman and his wife l, a young magistrate. She is murdered and years later her still distraught ex husband is investigating the case using new Virtual Reality technology to revisit the crime scene.

Strange things start to happen. And gradually possible perpetrators for the crime emerge. But which one is the real killer?.....

Top marks France for an excellent short drama series!
