4 Blocks

I watched the first two seasons on Amazon Prime. Superb!

A Lebanese crime family (Hamady's) running its business in Four Blocks in Berlin, Germany. Along with the cops other crime gangs - even other Lebanese crime families - are after them and their revenue.

Meanwhile, there are differences within family members about how to manage the business. Some are aggressive and prone to violence others more calm and calculating. As if this weren't enough, the wives and family members exert influence on their husbands too.

Despite what may sound like a messy plot it's anything but ... The story flows as smooth as a fine wine. The violence is measured. The characters real. The acting top class.

This is no ordinary crime series. It's more than a cut above the rest.
