Furies

Let's face the tumult of action and intrigue with "Furies", the TV series that catapults us into the dark and dangerous Paris of crime. In this urban jungle, Lyna, a determined and resolute woman, navigates between vendettas and secrets, promising viewers a journey full of adrenaline and suspense. However, behind the veil of action, lies a maze of intricate plots and characters that, while promising, often leave a sense of dissatisfaction and emptiness. Action is the pulsating heart of "Furies", with sequences that captivate the viewer and transport them into the chaos of the Parisian streets. Lyna, portrayed intensely by Lina El Arabi, is a powerful guide through this whirlwind of contrasting emotions: vengeance, desire for justice, and a profound search for truth. However, as we allow ourselves to be swept away by the breathtaking action, we realize that there is much more beneath the surface of this series. The plot of "Furies" unfolds like an intricate labyrinth, full of twists and turns that leave the viewer breathless. But as we delve deeper, a sense of uncertainty about the value of the entire journey emerges. Secondary characters, while promising, often disappoint due to their lack of depth and development, leaving a sense of dissatisfaction and emptiness. Despite these imperfections, "Furies" still offers an engaging and vibrant experience. The performances of the actors, especially those of Lina El Arabi and Marina Foïs, are exceptional and keep the viewer glued to the screen. The Parisian settings add a touch of charm and atmosphere, transporting us into a dark and dangerous world that serves as the backdrop to the story. "Furies" presents itself as a compelling mix of contrasting emotions: thrilling action, tight suspense, some moments of disappointment, and a touch of Parisian charm. It's not a perfect series, but for those willing to immerse themselves in the whirlwind of its intricate plots, it could still offer a noteworthy experience.

That sums it up. It's got hype action. A hero's journey. Underworld lore. Crime Families. Hippity Hop style. And it's French. Like the creator went to the Luc Besson school of storytelling. All style, some story, over-the-top amped fun.

I wouldn't downgrade it 'Fast and Furious' style, but there is definite camp. Maybe if this show does gets multiple seasons, they will end up stealing tanks to take up to space.

It's not that real, grime spot that sells tasty cheese by the slice. It's not dressed up like it's a sit-down with courses. It's Pizza Hut and we're hungry. Thank you, may I have another?

I am so glad I watched two episodes before reading the bad reviews, otherwise I would not have watched it.

Many reviews say the acting is terrible from the main actress, is she an amazing actress, no! Is she awful, I didn't think she was that bad! Maybe because it is dubbed for me it was less noticeable.

BUT what I can tell you is the series is interesting, gripping and had so much going on, that it had me gripped immediately.

All I am going to say is; gangsters, godfathers, furies, Olympus and the underworld and a lot of action with twists and turns that take place, worth a watch! I look forward to the next season.

Surprised to see the overall rating. Maybe the French liked it the most. Weak story line, fuzzy characters, bad acting and direction. Both the Furies have expressionless wooden faces, especially the younger Fury. I read in one of the reviews about the actress may have gotten this role because of the casting couch, but though I do not agree to it completely, she is not a good fit for the role and she is very bad at acting. And then the introduction of the second boyfriend, whole role does not have any impact on the story except that the character was used to show that the younger Fury can have sex. And it is not even funny when both the boyfriends fight for her. At least the first boyfriend had some say in the story to show how she was a normal girl until her father is murdered but the second boyfriend is ridiculous and he too is a very bad actor. The first and the last episodes were a bit consolation in a rather a bland show. If the role of both the boyfriends were to be reduced or deleted the series would have ended in 5-6 episodes.

First let me say I love the basic plot line. The concept of The Fury is good stuff, and the action scenes are great. Now that's out of the way, everything else about this show is hackneyed, all the way from the angry girl lead character who somehow not only becomes a combat genius in weeks, to the fact that she owns no clothing that is not a crop top. It's not uncommon in action TV/films for there to be a few plot holes, especially French productions, but this thing is ridiculous. There is a 'jump the shark' moment 4 times in every episode. I wish someone with vision could do this story without selling out to marketing stereotypes.
