Blinded by the Lights

If you like organized crime themed movies with dark, gloomy and existential vibe, you will love this show. Music and shots are great, fantastic acting, lots of violence and an amazing atmosphere. I found it hard to stop watching till the end. Certainly recommended!

This series has some drawbacks like scenes that aren't necessary or hard to understand meaning, but you shouldn't look at it as just another tv series about drugs. You have to understand that everything that happens in it is 100% true and is happening on a day to day bases in Poland. That doesn't mean everybody in Poland or anybody thats Polish will understand this series. You have to be a part of the Polish streets to understand the full meaning behind it. From their brotherhood, trough coruption, to the impact that drugs have on somebodys mind and their whole life. It's honestly one of the best series I have ever seen and if you can emotionally connect with the main character, it's going to be a really emotional journey.

Hope this helps.

OK, you might have seen similar plots before, like in the danish "Pusher" movies: drug dealer with everything under control, makes a few wrong steps and it all spirals down. Its true to its genre as a gangster serie, but still it adds something new and interesting. I really love the atmosphere: it's none typical soundtrack, creative use of CGI, beautiful cinematography and locations that either helps to tell the story or adds atmosphere - or both (the location scout has done an excellent job indeed).

The acting is excellent. Kamil Nozynski, playing Kuba, gives us a main character we care about without playing on more strings then what is absolutely necessary. Jan Frycz, playing Dario, is giving us the best bad guy since "Herr Starr" in Preacher. Marta Malikowska is making a stunning performance, as this interesting female character, Pazina, which has depth and is far from stereotypical - something I often miss a lot in this genre.

Yes it's violent, it got some dark humor, some really interesting dialog, and it also got something you don't expect. Like the scene when the characters sing a little bit from the same song...

This is the first polish TV-serie I have seen in many years. But this has definitely made me open my eyes for polish TV-drama in the years to come.

I have to say, this is one of the best HBO Poland productions. Dialogues, actors play, visual side, colors, music everything on top notch level so needed in Polish film industry. Plots is as well amazing and catchy especially for people familiar with Polish reality.

I strongly wish for HBO to continue this series even for one more season. Worth every second of your time!

Definily the best polish series I have seen. Greate plot, beautifly scenes, very good play. It's more or less the same time as 1983 on Netflix was released, however Slepnac od swiatel it's a totaly different level of the cinema. I can't wait for a next sezon.
