ZeroZeroZero

The story, the characters, the music, the performances...everything is superb. I really loved the mix between three countries (the suppliers, the couriers and the buyers). I definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great series with all the ingredients. A must watch!!

This is one of the most well shot, well written miniseries I have ever seen, and yet nobody I talk to has ever heard of it (I myself heard of it from a podcast completely unrelated to tv/movies). Amazon definitely needed to promote this better.

To me, this felt like one really long film rather than a miniseries, and I mean that in the best way possible; there is very little discontinuity or downtime as each episode rolls on. The story itself is a tightly woven tale of 3 parties from 3 different countries involved in an international cocaine shipment, and it is executed wonderfully. The suspense is high and action nearly constant after the first episode, which admittedly takes a minute to get going, so be sure to give it a chance as it has to set the rather complicated story up.

The thing that shocked me the most was the production quality; Amazon must have spent a fortune on this because the set pieces, camera work, cinematography, acting etc. Are all top notch, and each episode feels like a film production. There are some rather breathtaking hover shots over exotic landscapes, and the locations felt authentic.

The show utilizes a "rewind" cinematic technique throughout that I thought was rather unique and well executed. At certain points the story will seemingly jump forward in time, and as things begin to converge and confusion sets in (as in, "what the hell did I miss?"), the timeline will rewind and you are given the missing details from a different character's perspective. It's executed extremely well, and adds additional suspense to an already wild show. You'll know these moments are about to happen because the camera slows and cued music begins to play for great effect.

If you don't mind reading a lot of subtitles (roughly 2/3 of the show) and this sounds interesting, definitely check it out. It's the best kept secret on Amazon.

Very good show. The storyline, the acting, the casting, the director did a great job. Disregard the negative hype. I would've loved for the show to continue.

Nothing about it warrants a single negative review. Realistic and made with good taste. Surprised really that it's a French production, but definitely better than most British productions. Those are actually slow and annoying. Filmed in many countries and with actors from many different backgrounds and the common thing is they all performed to the highest standards. They all suited their roles perfectly. High praise for the casting agency of course.

Some negative reviews claim it's "slow". But these people just want car chases and gunfights without story. That's why we end up with the superhero movies n shows of today. Coz viewers have no taste. Toxic fan bases ruined great many shows. Unfortunately the average iq was lowered from 115 to 100. So the average viewer has no understanding of storyline n no patient for the story to develop. The story here is very good. Realistic. Actors from all over the world are relatable, believable, and the casting was just perfect. I highly recommend this show. No faults so far. Unfortunately it's a mini series. Also some negative reviews complain about the slaughter of a pig. Pigs are slaughtered every day everywhere. People just don't wanna see it happen that's all. Well it happens. Not enough reason not to watch a show. The pig would've ultimately died a worse death in mass production in slaughterhouses all over the world. Reality is worse than the screen. That's a fact. Horror fans enjoy watching people slaughtered and tortured but when it comes to animals dying a better death than what happens in reality they cry. But they'll still eat McDonald's n kfc while those are the actual torturers of animals. Animals will die best thing is to do it as humanely as possible. And no electrocuting them isn't humane at all. Don't try sticking a fork in an electric outlet, coz u know how a fraction of a second will feel. Imagine having it done all the way til death. That's the reality. SMH.

One last thing. The Don's car plate number has 666 in it. Is it a coincidence?

ZeroZeroZero has to be one of the most underrated, surprisingly great series of the last few years. For all the great ratings by critics and viewers alike I never heard about this until recently. It's an eight episode miniseries that will keep you in the edge of your seat throughout each episode! It's beautifully shot, it has such a fresh, gritty feel to it. It's also brilliantly written, directed, acted, etc. The acting is just fantastic, especially Dane DeHaan and Andrea Riseborough. I was so into this show that I binged all eight episodes of the course of a weekend. I was actually disappointed that it's only a miniseries because I wanted to see more. Hopefully they start making more of these kind of gritty crime thrillers.

ZeroZeroZero was so much better than I expected. It's so good that I'm mad at myself for putting it off for so long. I have no idea why Amazon didn't promote this more because it's definitely worth watching. It's about a drug shipment of cocaine being shipped from South America to Europe. It follows the drug cartels, the sellers, the makers, the brokers, everyone. It feels very authentic and real. It reminds me a lot of the movie of Sicario. It has a multinational cast that all do an incredible job. If you're a fan of drug and crime dramas then you'll like this. You'll be hooked from the first episode to the last!
