Tribes of Europa

A blend of the 100, revolution, the cinematography from children of men and a sense that mad max could be happening in Australia and it wouldn't be out of place in the world that has been created.

Solid first season I would have preferred an extra 2 episodes, it did not feel rushed or like anything was cut out. Just enjoyed the series enough that it left me wanting more.

The first three episodes are very predictable and each character fit mould, the second three episodes more than compensate for this short coming.

Near infinite possibilities for season 2, very hopeful this one gets renewed to finish the story.

I'm up to episode 3 and I'm enjoying it. The acting is not bad at all - not sure why other reviews say so. I just switched to original German and English sub. I don't mind the occasional German to English switch, I actually like it. The storyline so far is good. I thought this would be another cliche boring TV shows but the story got me in. I hope the remaining episodes will be good but so far I'd say it's worth watching if you are into post apocalyptic genre

Pros:

• Good performances with the exception of David Ali Rashed as Elja.
• Balance of tone throughout.
• World building is excellent. Especially when following Kiano's storyline.
• Dark and weird. Some bloody action.
• Moses
• Sets itself up for an excellent second season.
• The fast pacing of the show means you may never be bored but it hurts some things as well.

Cons:

• Frustratingly short. Six episodes was too little and I was left wanting more. I wish it didn't feel so rushed at times.
• Limited character development for a lot of the side characters because of it's length.
• Predictable. It's easy to guess where things are going once the stories macguffin is introduced. Kianos storyline however is always interesting and has the only moment in the story that caught me off guard.
• Elja. The performance is boring and so is the characters plight.

Overall: Tribes of Europa was entertaining and I was left wanting more. The world-building is excellent and a few of the performances are great. If you think you may be interested in the show after watching the trailer Tribes of Europa will provide a few hours of solid entertainment. I can only hope that next season takes a few more risks and has more time to spend with the characters. A very solid 7/10.

After a sloppy, boring, seen-it-all-before first two episodes, this show really gets into its groove from the third episode, so stick with it. The story develops, as do the interpersonal relationships between characters which are thoughtful and well acted. There are lots of familiar themes that come out, but all very enjoyable and well produced. Can't wait for season 2!

This really is a show aimed at the teen/young adult demographic so allowances should be made by the oldies. In fact, there is hardly anyone over 30 in it. It's only 6 episodes long and doesn't really get into its stride until episode 2 so be patient with the first episode which is the weakest. It certainly grows on you after you accept the general premise and ignore that the world will not look like this after a collapse. Mad Max ish with fashion (Check out the shoes), suitable but not gratuitous violence, and the subtle depiction of sex that Hollywood could learn a lesson from. The mix of German and English really works. The writers took their time with the triple strand narrative. Moses and the young lad being the most interesting. Wokism is present but not in your face so that's a plus. This will go from strength to strength.
