Ozark

Ozark was such an amazing show during his 3 first seasons, a masterpiece of drama combining poignant intrigue, mastered production, meticulous writing touched by a dose of skillfully distilled black humor. It's was one of my favorites shows and one of the few that I rated 10 but now i just give it a 9 because the season finale has completely ruined my love for this show because this season 4 was so bad oh my god...

Season 4 is lack of action, tension or typical Ozark's plot twist/violence. The pace is extremely slow and storyline does not conclude properly. Everything goes so fast around the last 30 minutes, and so many questions to answer. It's predictable, and weak compared to the quality of the 3 first seasons, did they switch of writers or what ?

There was characters coming in and out and one minute they all hate each other and then don't. It was just inconsistent and felt like they weren't sure how to finish everything. A lot of plots ultimately lead to nothing more than a pointless storyline.

The ending is a joke, it doesn't feel like an ending. Just a regression of most of the characters and the final scene is nonsense in every conceivable way. Ozark ending fails while Sopranos ending doesn't. The writers did not spend any effort on the final and find how to resolve the built-up tension through four seasons! It felt like a last-minute homework of a terrible student. What a waste, this season finale just ruins the show !

I never would have watched this if not for the quarantine. It wasn't promoted well. I LOVED IT! Great script, tons of action and characters that you love to hate and hate to love.

The first season was GRIPPING and by the first couple episodes so much had already been established in terms of development, suspense, and thrill. I loved Micheal and was rooting for his cause so that by the time season one ended I was ready for the same amount of quality, but to my surprise it slowed down considerably in season two, the whole season dragged on and although it was entertaining to watch it felt like there was a lull in the pacing. Whereas, in season one, by episode five we already had many over-acrhing plot lines, in season two there seemed to be too much a straight path for what the actions where going to be making it predictable.

Season two definitely had its surprising moments, but compared to season one is palled in comparison. Finally season three everything went downhill and there was no more suspense for me it felt like the show just dragged on and the characters lost their lustre and relatability. They had made terrible choice after terrible choice that I no longer cared what happened to the byrde's.

Overall it's a great show, with amazing acting from the whole cast. Jason Baetman did a fantastic job with the show, but unfortunately it succumbed to Netflix's plague of dragging on.

Definitely, one of best Tv shows about mafia on NETFLIX. Events unfold slowly, but with enormous progress and cruelty. Each character plays their role on final. The most important thing in Ozark its relationships between family, when children grow up and see what their parents do. As a result, the children's consciousness breaks down and they will begin to imitate their parents.

• Jason Bateman, opened up in a new, non-comedy way and amazed. The character of Marty Byrde himself was pragmatic and sometimes pathetic. Unlike his wife, who became very cruel and insane.

• A very good «book» on business corruption and responsibility for it. Understanding that once you plunge in, you will never get out again.

In the gritty world of crime dramas, "Ozark" shines as a beacon of excellence, delivering a masterclass in tension, storytelling, and character development. With its dark and brooding atmosphere, impeccable performances, and intricate plot twists, this series is a rollercoaster ride that you won't want to end.

Jason Bateman's portrayal of Marty Byrde, a financial planner turned money launderer, is nothing short of extraordinary. His ability to seamlessly switch between charm and menace is a testament to his acting prowess. Paired with Laura Linney's captivating performance as Wendy Byrde, the power couple at the center of the chaos, the chemistry between the two leads elevates the show to new heights.

What sets "Ozark" apart is its unflinching look at the consequences of criminality and the lengths people will go to protect themselves and their families. The moral dilemmas faced by the characters are palpable, and the stakes are always high, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.

The supporting cast is equally impressive, with standout performances from Julia Garner as the cunning Ruth Langmore and Tom Pelphrey as the troubled Ben Davis. Each character is fleshed out with depth and nuance, making the tangled web of alliances and betrayals all the more compelling.
