Valea Mutã

Since the original Norwegian version is not available for streaming, I thought this would be a good substitute. Unfortunately, it's poorly produced, low budget, and lacks continuity. The story is told in a jumbled manner with so many scenes being irrelevant. The final episode has too many sub plots all coming to a head that it really is just a jumbled mess. Overall, it's a waste of time.

Expected more from an HBO series. The acting was terrible.

HBO crime story, casted and filmed in Romania. A strong woman is fighting police traitors, and a young gay man caught in the middle of it all. The main character (played by Theodor Soptelea) is really trustworthy. if not for other reasons, you should definitely watch this mini-series just for his excellent performance.

This was based off the show Eyewitness but it really sucked by comparison. It was frustrating and irritating to watch. Don't bother.

There is nothing, nothing that comes remotely close to the poor acting in this movie. It could easily get 7-8 stars if it wasn't for the acting.

Almost everyone is stiff. Nobody talks Romanian like this. There are two scenes when the characters should be raging with anger, and yet the actors are zen-calm, no fluctuation in their voice and only tense their facial muscles as if they are enacting their characters via animojis.

Overall the tv show has a good premise, even if it's a remake of Eyewitness (Norwegian), but the actors just do not deliver. At all. If this was a graduation test for acting school, 9 out of 10 should fail.
