Seson 1:

The plot is getting more interesting with each passing episode. However, something seems very unrealistic - I'm not sure if it's the dialogue, the acting, or the direction, but there's a discord somewhere. The romantic narrative involving Aleksandar and Jelena in the initial season feels completely implausible and forced, with her actions notably lacking in logic and narrative justification.

Natasa Ninkovic disappointed me. Despite being considered one of the greatest divas, her performance here feels artificial, unconvincing, over-affected and sometimes even hysterical. Nina Jankovic is stunning, but her acting is somewhat shallow. Aleksandar Filimonovic is quite unconvincing. Jelisaveta Orasanin is notably lacking depth in her acting skills. Andrea Rzanicanin simply doesn't know how to act - she is a disgrace to the profession. Milica Sipovac is stiff and lacks authenticity. Slavko Labovic "acting" is painful to watch - cringe! Miodrag Radonjic's lack of talent is almost comical. On the other hand, Vuk Kostic, who is often considered a mediocre actor, is not so bad. Perhaps because I didn't expect anything at all. He's not even the worst actor in the cast. Occasionally, he appears distant, almost robotic, but there are instances where he truly shines!

While I may not personally appreciate Mirjana Karanovic, she convincingly brings to life the character of a cold, unscrupulous, and ruthless police director. Tihomir Stanic is an acting veteran with flawless diction! Uliks Fehmiu is truly masterful in his portrayal. Elizabeta Djorevska is a good actress of the old-fashioned style. Aleksandar Djurica is a revelation for me - his acting is natural, authentic and unpretentious. Predrag Bijelac is very charismatic. Marko Janketic is among the better actors of the young generation - authentic, with a rich range of acting skills, and you simply trust him. Katarina Radivojevic is a good actress and I would love to see her on screen more often. Ivan Djordjevic is quite solid in his small role.

Season 2:

The second season is significantly less dynamic - the story unfolds at a slower pace, resulting in much less tension and excitement. There are moments when it becomes boring to watch.

Tihomir Arsic is absolutely brilliant. It's been a while since I last watched him and I am happy to see him back on screen! In the second season, Marko Janketic takes it to the next level - the character he portrays is fully vibrant, natural, and authentic. Despite my initial negative opinion about Milena Vasic, she pleasantly surprised me. This role suits her well. Slavko Stimac is very good. Natasa Ninkovic is much better in the second season - she has more to work with. In the first season, she was constantly playing drunk, intoxicated character. Uros Jovcic's portrayal of a young lawyer in a caricatural miniature role is excellent. Bojana Stefanovic manages to steal the spotlight in her brief appearance. She's truly an outstanding actress, and it's a shame she's not more present on screen. Radoslav Milenkovic is, as usual, absolutely brilliant in his brief appearance. Marko Gvero is incredibly charming in his minor role as a field cop. While I didn't have a particularly high opinion of Andrija Milosevic's acting skills, he does a good job in this role. Milos Petrovic Trojpec is a breath of fresh air, exuding authenticity and natural charm.

Vuk Kostic disappoints in the second season. His acting appears limited to embodying the "tough guy", but when it comes to emotional scenes, it becomes uncomfortable to watch. He is struggling to express emotions. Miodrag Radonjic is even worse than in the first season. He poorly delivers text lines with meaningless, dull facial expression. Mina Sovtic has an unusually enchanting face, but her speech and diction are terrible - not something one would expect from a professional actress. Isidora Simijonovic is beautiful, but she also struggles with speech articulation (not just in this role). It seems to be a common issue among many young Serbian actors.

Well directed, very interesting story. The plot and unfolding are like based on true events. The movie will inspire a lot of viewers to join the police force, but please be aware in the movie you don't see the real picture, for example how much paperwork is required for a tiny crime case and also the more important part - the average salary. Yes, all those dangerous, adrenalin high situations are real and intriguing but all comes to a disappointment when you get paid for what you do. Law enforcement in this very corrupted society is nearly impossible - Aleksandar shows it very precisely.

So the unnecessarily convoluted story is not what makes it bad. It could be improved, but considering other RTS TV series it is OK.

What makes it bad is the acting. It is just so terrible. It is catastrophically bad. I can't believe the lead actor even went to acting school, let alone that he was cast as the lead in a major TV series. He's just so wooden.

The casting of the entire series is unforgivable.

There are a couple of great performances by some seasoned actors that appear in the series, but all the young actors are terrible.

The lead actor is particularly bad. The actress who plays the forensic investigator is also very bad, along the lead's partner Mirko who is just a little bit better than the lead, but still very bad.

I googled those three actors they all seem to be children of important people in Serbian theater/cinema. Nepotism is the only thing that could explain the terrible casting. Either that or the casting director was blind and deaf.

This show is for Netflix or HBO for sure! Loved it!

7/10 The grade for the Se1 is 9. It was something different and I liked it, even the acting of Vuk Kostic. But the following seasons threatened quality. I always had the impression that everyone just doing their job quickly. Pity, it could have been a good series to the end.
