Mare fuori

In the series we often speak in Neapolitan dialect and many actors are unknown.

This thing in the first few episodes could lead us to give lower ratings than necessary.

But once the first impact is made, the plot grabs you and you realize that these young "non-professional" actors are really good. Certainly many of them play parts that are congenial to them and perhaps they would not be able to do as well in other roles but this does not detract from the wonderful acting of this work.

As you go along you can't help but continue with the next episode and now I'm waiting for the new season to come out.

Even in Italy we know how to do beautiful things, even with not all professional actors and even when the budget is not millionaires.

Well done, really good everyone.

The more I watch this series, the more I love it! I'm a social worker on an abuse hotline and have always cared about protecting the unprotected at any age. Youth who get into real trouble often lack the skills to cope with the myriad of issues that populate this series. The workers at this imaginary institution are very familiar to me. Often dedicated, caring without decent pay, and always at the brink of burnout. Bravo 🙌 for finding actors and actresses that bring us into this world of violence, sadness, remorse, and ultimately hope for the youth who are able to find their way to peace.

Thank you 🙏 for this fabulous series!

I really enjoyed season 1, and found it to be really addictive, like the best prison dramas. The dramatic pull was so strong that I could easily suspend my disbelief at all the crazy goings on. However, they cranked up the melodrama in season 2 beyond my what I could handle, so I dropped it after episode 4. The death of a key character at a significant moment in a very suspicious manner, and the operatic, slow motion reactions to it was one of the last straws. I wish the creative staff had practiced a little more restraint and tastefulness. However, their strategy seems to have paid off, at least in the Italian market, even if it doesn't displeases someone like me. I'm glad I watched season 1 though.

First of all i'm gonna say don't watch this show if you're sensitive to certain topics like abuse, violence or assault.

This show is great and I honestly got addicted from the first few episodes. One thing I love about this show is that you can't tell who the main character is because everyone is given equal time to shine and everyone's story is beautifully explained. The actors are almost all newbies but the acting is awesome. The chemistry between couples (especially Gemma & Cardiotrap and Rosa & Carmine) is just perfect. Plus I love the soundtrack.

Also not gonna lie Rosa and Carmine's relationship carried the third season. I wish season 4 would come soon, can't wait to watch!

The previous review I red says that the series does not claim to be realistic. Surely it is imaginary but it is certainly very close to reality. It was a while since I didn't get involved in a good TV show. After watching Gomorra, Suburra and of course Narcos I was convinced that there wasn't much else worth to watch on that topic. I was wrong. Characters are so real and human. Their human side is investigated and analyzed with mastery. The show does not pretend to divide the world between bads an goods but investigates the psychology and social motivations of the phenomenon. Looking on a social-cultural context mixed with teenage problems.

Great job. Can't wait to go home and watch the rest.

Of course now I'm working with two nice drawn dark circles ;)
