paypal-57499's rating
Regardless whatever political view you may have, you will likely agree that this series describe the current gang violence problem in Sweden painfully well. Young kids who are trapped in suburbs and sucked into the gangs, either because they don't see anything else, or that they are simply too afraid to say stay out. A law enforcement system, that tries to nail down the rotten apples who use young kids for the dirty work, but too often fails. Fiction, yes indeed. But some parts are painfully real. What the series does best is that it helps the watcher to realise that 1) the bad guys don't have any specific skin color and 2) there is no quick fix.
Generic in the sense that they show nude women, they copulate, they talk, they talk, they kill a few, they fight, they copulate some more and on and on.. What's wrong with producers these days?. Marco Polo had one of the most interesting life stories but still the whole story is trashed with senseless sex and nudity. Kind advice to Netflix .. if I want to see sex in excess, then I can watch an adult movie.
This is a very binge-worthy series, the atmosphere is built up in a very credible way and the acting is superb. Please note that it requires full attention to not get lost. And whatever you do, keep the german language and live with the subtitles.
