Farcical series that couldn't decide its purpose or intent....,
Is it about the tough decisions leaders have to make in the face of adversity or threats?
Is it the prowess of the Finnish military?
Or perhaps about a too real threat of an invasion of a country?
Certainly an interesting premise that portrayed women and A (one) minority in a positive light (hence the generous 3 stars).
Disjointed storyline, unanswered questions, too neat wrap up and let's not forget the inclusion of an American soldier that added no value to the plot.
Not to disparage the no doubt competent Finnish Military but the portrayal of soldiers was weak kneed at best.
An incident of such magnitude and severity would not have a prime minister playing footsie with an unknown third party for negotiations and diplomacy. Completely unrealistic and ludicrous responses to such a serious incidence of an invasion of a country.
Beautiful scenery would have been better presented in a national geographic documentary.
Most of the series showed the president walking/ bouncing from one meeting to another along long halls, and soldiers ducking into forests, behind sheds or crawling through forest floors.
Farcical at best despite high promise.

Was very illuminating to watch this series.
My first thought was ...do women really dress like that in Turkey. No criticizing, just thought this slice of Turkish life was incongruent with my perceptions.
Nonetheless , the acting was not really memorable. Storyline had me hooked enough to watch all seasons but rather disappointed with the culmination. So many scenes didn't make sense especially with travel time and coincidences. While engaging ..main character was illuminating.
Spectacular scenery that prompted me to do a bit of research.
Lots of potential but eventual let down of the storyline.

The cast of characters are phenomenal. David chocarro as Santito was a standout and deserves recognition for such a convincing addict and sociopath. I was amazed at his performance and absolutely convinced they
Used a real con for his portrayal. His twitchy behavior , facial expressions, mania were spot on.
There are moments where you need to suspend disbelief but the portrayal of the prison no doubt mirrors some reality...hierarchy, gangs, corruption.
Some very brutal scenes, some genuinely funny moments and moments of insight into human nature and the basic good in people who are labelled criminals.
Not a fan of the photography where it seems we are sneaking a peak from behind a shelf or door. Been conditioned to expect something to happen which those shots. Nothing does.
Standout performances by all cast.
Why does everyone compare to casa de papel, it's a completely different story and both unique in their own way. Love the Spanish productions, great talent all around and much deserving of a second season.
