Loved every bit of it! It is an addicting show, you can't just Watch one episode, It leaves you wanting more! In my opinion one of the best portuguese shows, portuguese ficcion is outdated to say the least, these guys did an amazing job! Seen some people complain about "excessive swearing" well as a portuguese the swearing felt very normal (unless you're from Lisbon and it scares you😂) portuguese people swear a lot, sorry!! Loved the actors performance even tho I didn't know one or two.

Regarding not using the accent from Azores people really need to understand that not even continentals can understand it, so it kinda makes sense for it to not be predominat with the main characters ( even tho they acc try to say some words) but most of the secondary characters and extras do have the accent ;)

This is an amazing show-a tour de force of writing, acting, directing, filming, story-telling. The plotting is remarkable, in that it unfolds as it must have had to, but is surprising at every turn. It is a series fully aware of itself in the history of such movies as it mentions-Dirty Harry, Carlito's Way, even Matrix-but never derivatively. It's rammed with life, history, local and world culture. It's wicked and delightful all along, and every single performance, every line of dialogue and voiceover narration, hits home with the viewer and with the characters in the action. It's themes of poverty, the will of God, and the motives that animate the human condition suffuse every scene and shot and situation. Great too is the the use of language-Portuguese, Italian, English-and of the actors who move in and out of them as they work out their fates.

I'm not gonna lie, my expectations were really low but I was still curious about it, I start watching it and the story was just too addicting to just stop in the first episode, the more you watch, the more you wanna watch. It's a great feeling I haven't felt in a while! If you are into kind of thriller slightly dark humor vibe with a lot of profanity, I really recommend you take a look at this. Enough to say that the story is actually part real, part fiction... Just like titanic... The events are real but the story itself is not, but actually I was surprised of how accurate the show came out to be to the real event that took place in Azores. I was also surprised by the quality of the visual effects and editing, besides some art choices, and dialogue comparing the budget of this show compared to some mainstream shows. I would totally recommend to see it!

Amazing story, photography, writing, landscapes, actors and director. I have no words to describe such a great job!!

I feel that Turn of the tide is much more than a story that happened in Azores, Portugal. It could have happened anywhere. Only that it didn't. A group of friends, full of dreams with a lousy life. Improving their lives using all means they can.

In my opinion this is really a good series. The actors are great and the director did an amazing job!

Turn of the Tide is for sure something we will remember many years from now. I strongly recommend seeing it!

Looking forward to season 2!!
