L'accident

The only positive I can take away from this is the basic plot line of organized black market fake (China made) knockoffs of big name designer shoes, clothes, handbags (real thing can cost $20,000+), medicines. The major negatives were poorly researched how this crime works from production, to transportation, to syndicates, to local distribution. Poorly displayed police forensics (Large syringe into the victim's neck not seen?), and police investigation. Lots of stupid, if not unrealistic scenarios. Acting - poor, at best. Denouement was the typical least expected are guilty, and to top it off the final scenes were almost laughably cockeyed unconvincing (won't hold water) dumb.

This French series has the usual marks of French TV series. There is little in the way of character development, and the dialog just make little sense to an English speaker. The plot is so confusing in the first few episodes, and the connection between the characters does not become apparent until the last 2 episodes. The acting is really terrible with the usual histrionic behavior and constant shouting that is believed to pass for good acting. It's not a good series.....really!

Implausible most of the time; on the other hand, most mystery crime series are, and we usually just suspend disbelief for awhile. For most of this series the stretch of reality was not too bad; but the resolution at the end was pretty hard to swallow (had a certain logic to it, but .... I won't spoil it). But I was curious how it would resolve, so give it a slightly above average rating (too often with other series I just lose interest and cease to care). Perhaps a 3 or 4 episode series, rather than 6 episodes, would have been better.

A 6 part mystery crime tale set on the French Coast -Brittany. Great location shots in a seaside town. The off season tourist town reminds me of Boothbay Harbor, Maine.!!! Evidently the economy is bad and people have to resort to certain scams to make ends meet. This plot has many twists and turns before it all comes together. I am. not familiar with any of the actors but they carried their parts pretty well. French productions seem to have great camera work. This one has some great shots. A six part series works well if u watch a couple per night .

Forensics departments who miss the most basic of clues, a mafia man rampaging through the town seemingly unseeable by and invisible to the cops, characters keeping secrets for no reason when their revelation would have immediately solved the cases of their loved ones' deaths. The list goes on. It's a mishmash of clichéed plot devices that don't really hold water and that simply give an excuse to add another episode.

I admit it, I watched till the end. But we're locked down and there's only so much reading and surfing to be done. I wouldn't have stuck it out otherwise.
