I am very impressed with this series. I didn't catch up with the first season, but the second season...wow. Man, what a great mystery. Everything was top notch for Serbian cinematography. Acting was fantastic. I would especially like to give a shout-out to Sanja Kolacaric who knocked it out of the park. Well done, what a wonderful performance! Also, addition in form of Milos Timotijevic and Marko Janketic was awesome. Milos Timotijevic is truly one of the best Serbian actors. That terror in his voice, man! Mystery was developed very well. Pacing could have been better but still they made me care for all of the characters so I didn't mind it.

Senta storyline was, for me, one of the best stuff I have seen from Serbian film. Belgrade storyline however, was kind of a mess, but I won't judge it because, like I said, I haven't paid attention to the first season very much. One thing that I have to add as a con is too much nude and explicit scenes. Like, TOO MUCH! They need to cut some of that for the next season, if there will be one.

All in all, well done.

Very good music, especially the song "Dole u mraku". Poor sound recording, at some points I didn't understand dialogues.

Here is a short list of pros and cons, based on the first two episodes:

Pros: 1) The show has good, dark atmosphere which manages to save even the biggest fillers (especially in the second episode). 2) Mikac's crocodile jacket.

Cons: 1) 2D cliche characters that speak and act alike; and the unbelievable attempts of characterizations like when the protagonist is talking (with extremely bad Serbian accent) that he was born and raised in the projects (Belgrade) and was fighting the '90s wars. 2) The ever-lasting Achilles' heel of Serbian cinema - sound: which is particularly bad when the main character is mumbling his lines. 3) The music is so inadequate throughout the episodes, it seems that the soundtrack is from another show. I am sure that the ending song will be the ringtone of many mobile phones, but it just sounds cheap and "ad hoc". 4) The whole show is trying so bad to look like "True Detective" but with so little money and skill that the viewer is constantly reminded that he didn't get the real Barbie doll for Christmas, but an ugly Chinese copy instead.

Authentic and thrilling, first episode leaves you wanting to watch more episodes. Acting is great, good job for the casting crew.

Goran Bogdan is the beast in this series, awesome acting. And the rest of cast is nice too. Interesting and catchy story..My recommendations..
