Dom

It's not easy to escape the clichés when talking about crime and drug trafficking in Rio de Janeiro. We see the sensuality and rawness of funk balls, guns, swear words, cocaine lines, sex, but Dom offers much more than that. The story revolves around the relationship between Dom and his father, who does everything to save the boy predestined to a tragic life. The two are on opposite sides: the father on the side of law and responsibility and the son with two feet rooted in marginality and vice.

A breathtaking series, with 8 electrifying chapters of a lot of drama, humor, action and reenactment of an exquisite period, the highlight, at the end, is the direction of actors. Gabriel Leone and Pedro Lima at the front. Director Breno Silveira is an ace, he knows how to extract emotion from actors like no one else.

Another quality of the series is the contextualization of the Carioca environment in the 60s and 70s, showing the beginning of drug sales in the favelas and police corruption, including in the military sphere, during the dictatorship, with a general dealing weapons for the bandits, protected by dome.

A super-production like that is not common in Brazil.

Hot story line & you won't feel bored at all.

Victor character is very strong..

This review is based on season 1 and 2. Good series in general, but without a doubt the first season stands out, it is the best!! The second season seemed too unrealistic and somewhat heavier to me.

The story is very well told and edited and the action is fantastic, all the actors in general seem very good to me. I do not recommend it to anyone under 18 years of age, and even so, I would think about it, it is quite strong, a looot of drugs and violence.

The series almost falls into a mini soap opera environment at times, but not entirely because the story between Pedro Dom and his family must be told in detail, especially the relationship with his father. So..This mini soap staff didn't bother me, and the exciting moments of action, chases and tension exceed the familiar and necessary dialogues, especially at the beginning of the first episode, .... give the series the chance it deserves!!

I must also highlight the photography of the beautiful beaches of Brazil, they give us that necessary break between scenes and transport us to the atmosphere of vacations on the beach.

I especially recommend the first season, very exciting and beautiful story, a great combination!

This Series Is Inspired By The True Story..Everyone Needs To See This Story...Good screenplay,Story writing & Direction..🔥🔥🔥

Very good plot, based on a true story, exceptional acting especially Gabriel Leone who plays Pedro Dom. Pedro Dom the head character is intelligent, grew up with his family outside of the favela, but he's hungry for more and doesn't know fear, due to something missing in his brain. He's comes from a good family, but is attracted to the favela. His best friend is from the favela and from a young age they start using drugs and Dom lives for adrenaline. Than when he gets older he proceeds to being a criminal and with his tactics robs houses and basically he and his gang mates (women and males) are all greedy, they want more money, more sex and more drugs.

The series also is about the father that cares for his son (Pedro Dom) and tries to help him get off drugs. You'll also see the father when he was younger and gets dragged into a secret mission as a diver and after that goes undercover in the favela in the 1970's and becomes close to a drugslord. You basically see the war on drugs and the father is part of that.

Overall, it's a good series and a big bonus is also the behind the scenes videos on Amazon prime, so you'll understand the story and characters better.
