Les combattantes

The different stories are interesting and not farfetched. Most of the actresses and actors are excellent. The four main characters are so different from one another, what makes the story even more captivating. I binge-watched it and loved it... until the end of the episode 6.

The last two episodes were indeed very disappointing: they lacked realism and were sickly soppy. Example: would it be possible that a high-ranking officer, at war, receives a prostitute in his office and helps her, several times? Finally, the end is just unrealistic and too sentimental to me.

What a shame as it is a super story showing the great value and capabilities of different women during wartime.

I didn't have high hopes for this show when it popped up on my screen, but it turns out it's pretty addictive. Tells the tale of four women in various stations in life interacting and intersecting each other's lives in the early days of World War One in France.

This is a very well made series, good acting, writing, great costumes and sets. The show has a melodramatic, slightly unreal aspect to it, making for a dreamy high end soap opera feel. That's not a bad thing, it was low key mesmerizing at times.

I wish there were more miniseries of this caliber available on streaming services instead of the usual garbage shows.

Acting is superb. Cinematography and scene staging is excellent. Storyline is good enough to be engaging. Nice to see a quality series that isn't from the U. S. And while the dubbing isn't the best its adequate. Thank you. Or should I say merci.

If you like historical series with beautiful cinematography you're going to like this.

Acting is great, the characters are likable and it has a good storyline. Maybe that there are too few episodes to really develop a connection with all of the characters.

I also noticed that all of the main characters are very beautiful which may not be realistic but on the other hand all of them are great actors so I don't mind,

I especially enjoyed the first 5 episodes, the last episodes were a bit unrealistic and "American" with some cheesy lines and dramatic music. Especially since I prefer European series over American, who tend to be too much of everything for my taste. But overall it was an entertaining well made series and I finished it in two days!

This French miniseries brings us back in the beginning of the First World War between Germany and France. Many stories are packed here and lot of dramatic turns are shown.

The locations in the French Vosges of Alsace are beautiful. The costumes and sceneries were wonderfully created so that everything came very authentic here. The main actress and actors delivered an outstanding performance and should earn high respect inclusive the director.

The last two or three episodes were the best in my opinion when scene by scene was full of surprises and emotions. This war showed again how useless it is and how cruel it was during these war times. God bless all innocent soldiers who died for their country. 7/10.
