Suburræterna

Back to the Suburra universe. Brash and brutal melodrama of political corruption and gangster turf wars in Rome - set at the fraught moment of spiritual crisis in Vatican. Perfect for binge watching. If you like other Suburra seasons, punchy neo-noir, its imbroglio of crime families, political corruption and endless deal makings about Rome real estate. You will enjoy this one as well. Remember that this a sequel to an earlier series. If you need a refresher or just to catch up, or if you want to watch in order, you should watch "Suburra: Blood on Rome" first and you'll appreciate this show even more.

Quite disappointed by this new series - the premise was promising, although I feel the characters were a bit too soggy and raw - no energy, very little memorable moments. If you are a fan of Suburra, then this is a must watch to find out how the story develops from the previous series - that's unfortunately about it :/

There was hope for Spadino to develop, unfortunately he is the shadow of himself...The other characters, especially Cinaglia is not as fascinating and exotic. The female character is confusing, and Damiano fails to become a main character - the one that is interesting and intriguing.

I had been deceived by the first part of this series, several years ago. Mainly because I had dare comparing it with the fantastic movie directed by Stefano Sollima, back in 2015: SUBURRA. It could not be compared. But This sequel series is this time more in the line of the terrific and unrivalled GOMORRA series than SUBURRA, also the series. Yes, and as in many mafia plots, it is the riveting, tense, taut, story full of violence, emotions, and with a lead lady, as it also was even SONS OF ANARCHY. So, yes, this SUBURRAETERNA stuff is a good tv show, and the fact it is Italian makes things pretty easier. Who, better than Italians, can speak of mobsters, mafia, gangsters? It is unfortunately in their culture, and thaat helps pretty much in this show.

I had watched Suburra, which is the hit 2015 movie but not the series. This review is so based on the eight episodes of this show and what the audience can take away from them as a standalone. All the prequels have had the Anecleti family at the center of things. The question is whether this show can be viewed as a standalone. The answer is yes, it can, although it takes time to understand the big picture, as none of these characters were known before if seen that way. It's not that the script is too bad, but it doesn't offer anything new. It is another power struggle, a clash of ideologies with no apparent reason, and just general gunslinging and firing At times, it felt like the story had too many details and politics that we were missing, and that was a mistake by the scriptwriters. The one genuine benefit of not having watched the prequels is that the audience will root equally for both sides at war. Briefly, this story is that Rome is 'in turmoil,' with the mafia, the church, and the government pushing their agendas at the expense of poor people. This is why it is apt to say that there are no good guys in this show, even if they look like they are doing the right thing. The fact is that we expected to feel something with Suburræterna. All in all is better to be watched with a global knowledge of other stories.

At the top of the pile you ve got gomorrah and romanza criminale with the 1990s series close behind. The suburras are not up to that standard but are decent enough.unfortunately things go badly wrong with this new series featuring some of the old suburra blood on rome characters who have been furnished with a terrible plot and even worse script.to call many of the scenes corny would be an understatement and the cliches come thick and fast.spadino wears all black including shades,tries to be menacing but is a joke.the ercole character could be in a comedy feature.businessman/fixer type wearing a cheap suit and even cheaper ties.do yourself a favour and give this dross a missi haven t left any spoilers because there s nothing to spoil.
