Blood Coast

When I started watching this, I did not expect this would keep be intrigued and on the edge of my seat until the end. The character development is on point. Every character is well explored to the point the audience is connected to each of them. The gritty and violent nature of the drama reminded me a lot of Rogue City. The camera work is sensational. It drags you into the scene even more. Actors have done a great job portraying their roles.

And what an actress Jeanne Goursaud is turning out to be! Everything she touches, turns to gold.

I really hope they make a season 2 of the show. This is the kind of shows Netflix needs to invest on.

I don't usually watch crime/gangster television shows that are told primarily from the point of view of law enforcement. The reason is there is the usual Hollywood cliches involved in the writing. Blood coast didn't fail to do exactly that.

That problem aside, the series got off to a good start by building up what should have been a epic showdown between the villians in the series. There was a huge build up of events that left you anticipating the climax, then the writers went in other directions. This leaves me to believe they might be setting it up for another season but it derailed what they had already done. Worth watching but not on repeat.

....starts fairly poorly too much violence back to back to show us this is a badland those folks mean business etc etc we get it no need to bash us over the head with gore

• then it slows down a tad so we can actually have a story. And we do. And as opposed to so many series ; I just watched Hijack (2023) recently and there they got it right for 2 episodes then turned the storyline into a real pig's dinner; well here in this one the story gets stronger as it goes .... much stronger

The acting is just enough from all none are any real good and only one or two really poor others mentioned it .... the way it ends is ridiculous as in this is the end of a season there should be some kind of resolution; you just feel they forgot the last episode of season one

IT reminds all again that Marseille is really not like the rest of the country; also EVERYTHING you see in films and series about that town is always about Arab gangs drugs and violence like a Mediterranean Chicago; not sure the tourist board will be thrilled with this one

Anyway it is very good overall; simply wished they had completed the first series before they released it.🙃😉

Superb show, gripping from start to finish. The pace never lets up from the first scenes. Fine acting from all involved. Suitably menacing villains, compromised cops, and the looming threat of bureaucracy/ internal affairs. 6 episodes - perfect, none of this never ending series nonsense. The fact that is a genre piece means we all know the basic plotlines and so no need for overly boring character exposition. Plenty of space for the viewer to fill in the gaps and round out the characters for ourselves. If only the yanks and the brits could make something half as decent without all the usual fanfare.

Blood Coast is really great! It's an action packed thriller serie that knows what it is and doesn't try to be anything else. It just trying to entertain people with interesting crime stories and great action scenes. The director of Netflix Rogue City does incredible job at story telling crime mobs stories in Marseille, France. This serie is good entertainment for people that enjoy action thriller series. This serie will keep you hooked and on the edge of your seat throughout the season. You'll want to binge all the episodes. This new serie is doing amazing storytelling set in a european country. This serie could become a success on Netflix it,s easily one of the best new action thriller series.
