A Fúria de Paris

Surprised to see the overall rating. Maybe the French liked it the most. Weak story line, fuzzy characters, bad acting and direction. Both the Furies have expressionless wooden faces, especially the younger Fury. I read in one of the reviews about the actress may have gotten this role because of the casting couch, but though I do not agree to it completely, she is not a good fit for the role and she is very bad at acting. And then the introduction of the second boyfriend, whole role does not have any impact on the story except that the character was used to show that the younger Fury can have sex. And it is not even funny when both the boyfriends fight for her. At least the first boyfriend had some say in the story to show how she was a normal girl until her father is murdered but the second boyfriend is ridiculous and he too is a very bad actor. The first and the last episodes were a bit consolation in a rather a bland show. If the role of both the boyfriends were to be reduced or deleted the series would have ended in 5-6 episodes.

I truly enjoyed watching Furies. It is a classic french action gendre to the core but it also adds surprising twists and turns that will really make you want to watch the next episode. Every time. Some complaints about how realistic gun fight sequences are exaggerated imo. Sure I am no expert with guns but the scenes look as good or better than most big budget Hollywood gun fights scenes i have ever seen. Note: I admit that i also watched Furies in its original french language track since i am bilingual, so not sure how good the english dubbing is which could make a difference. When watching other languages foreign films ( i also love anything Scandinavian ), i always make it a point to listen to the intended original language track and read closed captions when necessary. Give it a try. It is well executed.

So a woman whos never been in a fight suddenly turns into a combination of Jack Reacher and Jason Bourne 5 months after being in a prison - a place where she got beat up daily no less?

The action scenes are well-choreographed no doubt but the plot has more holes than pathways making it seem just ridiculous.

The fault here lies with the writers and the lead lyna - tho that may be on the director and not the actress. Either way, the action team gets props but the writers let the show down. Guess they missed out a few pages in between when they handed the script to the director.

Tv shows are fun when larger than life but not when they are just plain ridiculous.

Its been a while since I have watched some good French action without any boring dialogues and wasting time. The series is interesting to watch, some good action scenes and decent script. If your looking for some good weekend binge with guns, gangs and mystery, this one is for you.

The scenes are well done, keeping up the speed to delivery without any fillers on romance and drama. The unfolding of events, twists, reveals and awe-moments are good enough for a pizza and action watchtime.

The actors are great and fight scenes are realistic enough to keep going till the end. I'd recommend to watch it and get entertained. And well, "The Fury" is a good protagonist to look out for.

I enjoyed this despite it being very frustrating at times. The basic premise is good and the main storyline is also very good. However, it is let down by too many plot holes and some of the acting is very amateurish. Nevertheless if you approach this in the same way as you would something like Die Hard or anything with the likes of Jason Statham or Jean Claude Van Damme then you will get enjoyment from it.

Like most action movies the action sequences in this become ever more preposterous to the point where I started wondering whether it was a parody. Entertaining but in a trashy way. You know the drill, the enemies have all the firepower of a small army but can't hit anything remotely close to a target while the protagonists can bring down said army with a small handgun and only two bullets.
