  • Cheap cocktail of violence and family drama

    1. Murders (one at the end of each épisode, + others, abductions) 2. Highly dysfonctional family 3. Drugs, money, crime And that's it?

    Seriously ?

    Well it's not enough for me!

    Actors are bad, dialogue is not better.

    As everybody seemed to find it good, I watched, hoping it would improve along the way, but no.

    Selfish characters, no moral compass and not an original story.

    Lost my time.

    Must ad some characters to submit, but that's it. Not a good series, it doesn't deserve nor need a long review.

    Still 86 characters, what to say?

    Don't do like me, don't watch it only because it ins succesful.

  • Purgatory...

    There are some good elements in this series. Its aesthetics, first of all, with warm beige colors that reinforce the feeling of a false sweetness of life. The small town is reminiscent of "the village" (an old 1960s series!). The decor captures the feeling of suffocation, despite the luxury and calm.

    Then there's James Marsden, charismatic as the lonely president, and the only truly engaging adult character in the story -there are young actors too, forunately. Finally, a perspective-reversing element is revealed at the end of each episode.

    And that's it. I was excruciatingly bored during the first episode, gradually finding interest as the series drew to a close. From my point of view, it's a shame that the plot doesn't really progress until the last five minutes of the episodes! I also find that overusing flashbacks is no substitute for good storytelling.

    The main characters are cold and monumentally selfish. Sinatra asks if she's a monster? Definitely, yes. Collins makes a big deal of the fact that his wife died on the day of the cataclysm. Hey man, billions of people died, sorry for you but look a little further than your navel.

    Finally, and unless season 2 remedies this, there's some absurdity in the city's design. No guns, no animals, so be it. But in the midst of these millionaires, who collects the garbage and who cleans up?

    So yes, I will watch season 2, but I hope it will be better.

  • Funny, feminist and sexy, an iron will in a velvet dress

    Torino (Italy), 1883. Lidia Poët is the first woman to become a lawyer, a counselor. But such a scandal cannot be tolerated, and the city court disbars her without any legal ground, just for being a woman. Upset but determined to fight, Lidia joins her brother's law firm and prepares an appeal. The brother, Enrico, is a quiet man, husband and father. At first, he disapproves of his sister's objectives and also of her (very free) lifestyle. Lidia is impulsive, careless, and she often leaves damages in her wake. Unable to stand put, she investigates murders, taking a lot of risks. But Enrico is patient, he loves his sister even if they fight a lot. Maybe, just maybe, could he take in consideration that she is entitled to work as a councel and help her.

    First of all, this is an Italian series : romantic, full of funny fights between lovers or within the family, with colorful costumes and luxurious sets. The series is based on a true story, though. The main plot really corresponds to the life of the real Lidia Poët. It begins to diverge when Enrico's career changes dimension in season 2. But the heroine here is much sexier and more fearless than her inspiration probably was. She can't help loving two men at once. She goes her own way without worrying about the consequences. One can't help but wonder where she finds the time and resources to afford all those pretty outfits she changes everyday! Lidia's character is irresistible, but she's well enhanced by all the other characters, especially the men, who surround her. And if the investigations are sometimes a little simplistic, the series is still a lot of fun to watch.
