Les Lions de Sicile

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.

Interesting series although somewhat melodramatic at times and the characters come across as somewhat one dimensional. It has the misfortune to have one of the worst soundtracks that made me put it on mute at times to avoid listening to. During a crucial scene you'll start hearing an English soft rock song that is way off the mark. On the plus side it's a story set in a time and place of Scilly in the 1800's that's not well covered. Despite the flaws just enough interest to keep watching it through to the end but definitely could have been better with improved characterization and a totally different soundtrack.

As a Sicilian I am very happy that for once they try to do a series that does not talk about the mafia and the bad things that has this territory. Here instead they try to give prestige to the most illustrious family of Sicily that has done so much good for Sicily and Sicilians by giving work to many families. I liked the actors, even if they are not all Sicilians have learned Sicilian well and have made the product very credible. I liked the shooting and I recognized almost all the places, on the other hand the sicily is beautiful and the shooting at the port were made in cefalù a fantastic village near palermo. I hope so much that they will make the second season that will talk about the Targa Florio the oldest motorist race in the world, and that passes by my village.

If you would like to watch it in Italian with English subtitles you have to click to watch on the I Lioni di Sicilia, if you click on the The Lions of Sicily then it will be dubbed in English and it pretty awful to hear. I speak Italian so Im glad to see it in the original language.

I am writing this because some of the reviewers here have mentioned how horrible the dubbed version is, and it seems enough of you don't know how to get it in the spoken language without dubbing, which can be viewed of course with the english subtitles. I hope to have helped some of you.

Enjoy it in Sicilian, I love hearing it.

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.
