Los leones de Sicilia

This is a great series. The English is horrible. But, you can change it to Italian, French etc. Likewise the subtitles. This is the saga of a family that has a lot of ups and downs. At times it's frustrating to watch. But a great series.

All the reviews that talk about the language thing have not tried to change the language. There are options. I like the series and do not understand how the complainers never thought to look. You don't like something and never look to see if you can change it? Seriously?

I hope that they choose to do more with it. I would love to see another part of this saga.

This is awful, an Italian production that isnt in Italian, it is dubbed! So I for one wont watch it which is a shame, I have read the book and it s a great story but not if its dubbed! Hulu has other great productions that are in the original language, among them Italian ones so why not this one too, at least give the viewers a choice. Americans are used to seeing foreign films in the. Original language, dubbing the film loses a lot, please reconsider and put any film in its original language. Viewers are intelligent and can read subtitles, much of Disney plus gives one the chance of seeing in the original language and Hulu should do the same! I am really disappointed.

I love it! Took me back to my roots (: Switch the language to Italian, far more authentic experience then. The story is amazing, the acting, the locations, the costumes, the history, the family dynamic, everything just sat right with me. It felt familiar, and I was never once bored while watching it. I really do enjoy a good period drama, and I do hop, that they will make another season!

The music is also worth mentioning! Really good. The only thing I could have needed is more closed ending, it's very abrupt and open in some ways, and ur left with a lot of questions and speculations. Of course that intrigues a lot of people, and it sure spikes my interest in watching more, and hoping for another season (;

Despite some really solid actors, the characters are generally not very convincing and the overall feel of the series is more like the beloved Italian soap operas of today. The scenery and overall story of rags to riches is interesting enough, but this production just doesn't quite hit the mark. Too much going on and with too many flashbacks make it quite 'messy' and not fluid or flowing to take the viewer along or care what happens. My main complaint though is that the whole series was overwhelmed by the constant intrusion of bizarre and inappropriate modern music. Why was this even necessary? It totally put me off and the mute button was used extensively. The time period is well represented by the details and the focus on the different societal stratas and population that struggled to make a living. You can see where and how and why the mafia evolved from this society. It could have been more interesting than it was. A shame, as the concept and real story it is based on are worth knowing about.

There is now an option, watch in Italian! Look at the top of the screen. Subtitles on, audio Italian.

Original post follows, but no longer holds true. I will watch the series then amend it.

Had been looking forward to this but sadly dubbed in English, and refuse to watch anything not using the original language. The timbre, temper of foreign film and television is its original language. Language is our most precious and unique way of expression. It is why imperial powers throughout centuries have forbidden people to speak in their own languages, stripping places and their native peoples of identity. Until Disney and Hulu take their heads out of their accounting books and allow users to listen to what appears to be an exciting epic series .
