Gli iniziati

Being the first one done for this little universe, is well done. A former journalist and professor will get his feet wet in a crime story that revolves between power, politics and water. The movie has a noir theme, with very good acting, both will get heavier and better in the second film. The story of this first one is self contained, so no issues if you jump to the second one. The movie is based on the books of the dark themed author Mario Mendoza, so it was very enjoyable plot and film wise . Pace begins slow, but with every new happening increases to it's boiling point and has a satisfying ending, not wanting to say sad or happy, but complete and matching to the film's tone.
