El día

Honestly speaking, that was really a brialliant and outstanding series. From story to making - they have done it perfectly. not a single scratch or complain anyone can do about this series. Must binge watch series. Really I'm impressed. Salute to the director and the team.

Finally a show that's smart from start to finish. The alternate view points are fascinating and the character development superb. Well done to everyone involved. It's hard to settle for the usual moronic pap after quality like this.

Kudos to this Belgian Crime series for its brilliant script and crazy screenplay. I love the way how it unfolds its mystery gradually through such intriguing drama.

That is one smart, well-written and addictive series... Much better than Casa de Papel, because a lot more realistic, to begin with... And also it doesn't try and picture thiefs like they fight for a noble cause, like Casa does. It's full of unexpected twists, (almost) no idle time. In a nutshell, I wish there more like these.

De Dag is a 12-episode bank heist mystery drama (that unfolds over 24 hours, hence The Day) in which all odd episodes have the story from the police's perspective and the even ones from the criminal/hostage's perspective. To get everything that happened in a given time period, you'll have to watch two episodes. This format is used throughout the show and has been done so cleverly.

The acting was great. In a lot of scenes, the acting is done "off camera" and you only hear phone conversations, which can usually get boring, but they did a good job of making it sound interesting. The cinematography was really good. Great editing! Great music and sound effects as well.

While I really liked the method of storytelling, the writing faltered a bit, but I was okay with that because I wanted to know what was going on. Things unfolded on slowly, but I was okay with the pacing also. It's okay because it'll seem more realistic, unlike something outrageous that you're forced to believe and play along. There's nothing over the top and it feels like real-world police work.

This show is worth searching for the availability in your region, I wasn't let down at all, and I hope you won't be either.
