I came across this on Netflix and I wasn't very convinced to watch but featuring Cantona just was too appealing. Good plot and great acting. Not the usual easy treatment of themes. Some minor flaws will not interfere with having a great time watching. Hope we have a season 2. Great performance by Eric Cantona!!

A story about a frustrated, desperate, angry 50+ unemployed family man gone rogue, because of the current economic and financial system and their resulting unfair working conditions, by taking "unconventional "steps to help himself out of his misery.

Even though there are some flaws, I had to watch it all at once.

It's a neat french production with great actors and story development, some smart twists and a promising cliffhanger!

Eric is on his way to being a great actor as well as a great soccer player.

Not your run of the mill thriller/drama with lots of twists and turns in the plot. Cantona gives a convincing performance and has real ability and I was impressed by his contribution. The rest of the cast do a decent job, although some of them are a bit hammy at times.

All in all I was pleasantly surprised and happy to recommend this series.

Thoroughly enjoyable series that I binge watched in one day.

I started off with the dubbed version, but it was impossible watching the great Eric Cantona being dubbed with a voice that just sounded ridiculous. So I opted for the original French version,with subtitles, instead I soon got used to it.

The story itself was very well done. It started slowly but devoloped at a fast pace. There are many twists and turns along the way. In some instances you have to suspend reality, as some situations were quite hard to believe.

The ending leaves it wide open for a second series, revealing that Cantona's character is not quite as nice and as hard done by as we were led to believe.
