Alfa

I saw all eight episodes in two nights. It was exciting, good and well put together. It kept me away from my mobile phone for all eight episodes. That is a clear sign of quality, for me. The actors did a superb job and I think it's very cool that the two brothers are actually brothers in real life too. It had good bad guys, got me convinced all the way. The kinda shady crooks we all know are out there.

The director did a superb job here too. I felt this show and it got me wanting to see more! I just need more. I love finding shows like this, playing the first episode and going "yeess, this is awesome" inside of my head. Being a former crook myself at a young age, doing time in different jails, I found the jail part VERY exciting in this.

My final thoughts: You get what is promised here. Bravo to all involved. And thank you for making my two nights in this corona time exciting and for giving me a break from my own problems in life. 9/10

I watched all 8 episodes today!

It was thrilling, it was entertaining, it was not "too bad" - as some of us express it in Denmark - when we really like something. Fiction is fiction but it feeds on reality - and the reality is not lost in this Narco-drama.

Large parts of Alfa's action takes place in North Zealand, Denmark, specifically around the city of Helsinge. I live there, and you not only recognize several places, but the series even uses the actual names of several of the locations. As a local, it contributes to authenticity.

There has been some criticism concerning the End.., which perhaps could have deserved an elaboration, but nevertheless it is Okay!. On the other hand, there is a good basis for a continuation (?).

Anyway - in terms of dramaturgy and film language, there are actually scenes in Alfa that are of both national and international class. Enjoy!

Overall an "okay' show. I love to visit Denmark and have studied a little Danish so every 'dansk tv-serier' is on my radar.

This show has great potential. But somehow it didn't work for me.

It is extremely slow. It contains of 8 episodes but they could have filmed it in 4 or 5.

This is just a awesome show. Realy love the caracters, hope it get's renewed because i would love to see this story evolve.

I've watched dozens of similar style series on Walter Presents, Netflix etc so think I generally have a good idea of what to expect and find it easy to follow the plot, but I have to say that after a really promising first 4 episodes this series loses its way through episodes 5-8 with the ending being frankly incomprehensible to me.

A shame really, but perhaps the lack of a clear ending is down to the fact that they may be planning a second series.

Have to agree with an earlier comment which said that the main character (the trader brother, not the cop brother) makes some very stupid decisions throughout.

Lars Mikkelsson's character was underused as well.
