Finally a Croatian TV series worth watching. True level of corruption is portrayed. Love the cast and particularly choice of music. Pretty certain season two will follow ...
A well-made mini series, with good writing and mostly great acting. At only 6 episodes, there is little filler here, as the series moves as a brisk pace, following the intervening stories of 4 main characters. Once the story gets going it doesn't introduce any new characters or red herrings, but shows us the intrigue and interplay that follow the events of episode 1. It's definitely refreshing to see a story progresses in a logical sequence of events and characters acting as real people would, without any suspense of disbelief necessary. The atmosphere is authentic and Zagreb here is portrayed as an urban jungle, with the old town being completely left out.
The script is good, bolstered by a standout performance from Uliks Fehmiu, with unfortunately a healthy dose of camp from some side characters, which is luckily only noticeable to native croatian speakers.

I looked the first episode and can say I like it. Somehow I got caught up in that Nordic noir, watching everything shot north from Munich and I can say I like Uspjeh (eng. Success). Croatian Broen, and architect Haris drives, what else than - Volvo :)
It seems to me that 6 episodes will be enough, I hope that from the second to the fifth will not be just filling. I'm a little bit bothered by the use of "dron" cadres, but ok ... at least the city of Zagreb looks like a real European metropolis, not a Balkan village at the end of the world. Original music is great, and music from the 60's must be, it seems to me that all retro today (listen to the soundtrack of Kiling Eve or Sharp Objects) provokes enthusiasm.
Two thumbs up :)
Found it accidentally but I have to admit it caught me. With its very strong pilot it could keep up my interest till the end. Great - and typical - characters, nicely photographed scenes despite of the darkness, perfect music and quite good story. Some of the reviewers compared it to the scandinavian thrillers, there are similarities without doubts. But still different. It has real and pure central/eastern european feeling which can be understood the best who live in the region. Definitely worth to watch, great show. Beside that let me suggest another very strong content from Hungary: also an HBO produced TV-series, Aranyélet (Golden Life) which has 3 seasons and reflects all the main characteristics of the region with powerful acting and story (maybe more intense than Uspjeh has).
