Devils

It's about time we had a good series about one of the bankers getting screwed and then deciding to take down his employers.

Alessandro Borghi is one of the best actors on the planet these days. Anyone who has seen him in other productions, such as Suburra, will attest to that. I'm not a big fan of Patrick Dempsey, but he's come a long way since his early days and plays his part with some authority.

The supporting cast does a good job, too. The sense of naked ambition, where people will do anything and everything to ascend the greasy pole, is palpable.

I can thoroughly recommend this series!

Update: The long-awaited Season 3 doesn't disappoint. I binge-watched all 8 episodes in a day! Brilliant!

Great series, first episodes takes some understanding (mainly about trading/banking/currencies). After watching the full series you'll understand the full story. Funny how switch between who's good/bad while watching the series. Not a predictable story, which is nice for a change. Definitely waiting for a second season!

I really enjoyed this series and found myself wanting to binge watch to find out how the plot ended. The actors were very convincing in their roles as traders in the share markets and the various plot twists kept the narrative interesting. I didn't feel you needed to be an expert in high finance to understand what was going on. It was entertaining and intriguing.

6 episodes in over a weekend and it's held my attention. Sumptuous locations and well filmed. One criticism is that little effort has been made to show that it's set 10-12 years ago, the tech and so on looks mostly bang up to date to me. British Billions? Kind of.

This a brilliant series. With a very well chosen international cast. Based on a semi biographical book by a former investment banker, Guido Maria Bera. The characters have depth and the storyline lines jumps perfectly between the personal and the macro dwellings of the world of high finance. Its also a series that sheds light on how the european finantial crisis has in fact a man made catastrophe! Hope to see more of this.
