First things first, it's a Netflix show, don't go into it with the expectation that it should match the quality of a HBO Emmy-nominated show. I don't know if other reviewers expected that. Limit your expectations. That being said, I found it very engaging and had many moving parts. Lots of fast action and was definitely worth the watch. Saw it all in one seating. It's not the highest budget show but it really came out well given what it had. I could draw a slight comparison to it with Gangs of London.
PS: Don't be thrown off by the action sequence in first 5 minutes.

I like this serie very much being a dark no-nonsense story. Though some reviews mention bad acting for me it was very good acting but I guess that some people prefer a more mainstream hollywood approach which is not in this serie but just makes it so great.
I would also mention a 10/10 for the visual effects team because they are great! Gun sounds, impact of bullets are well thougth and very realistic.
Looking forward to see more!

More over stylised Gallic hyper violence improbable enough to make Game of Thrones look like a documentary. A multi ethnic cast of brooding menace causing mayhem and making ridiculous choices in the Antwerp drug trade. It's diverting enough but if you've seen Braquo etc you've seen this. It certainly isn't Spiral.
Great netflix serie Ganglands forget formulaic TVshows Ganglands is violent, raw and gritty. Gandlands shows how the genre should be done. This excellent netflix French serie is complex and trap the characters into ever more convoluted situations. It,s either good & bad here just the law of the street maybe some naively directed situation but it,s feels real and
and possibly could happens among thugs. There is no honesty here it,s strictly business forcing the mean characters even deeper into dangerous situations and which forces him to make increasingly hard choices and decisions. The initial episode is underpinning the entire series and then unfolds plenty new dangerous situations with gritty violent raw action scenes. Ganglands is a compulsive TVshow for thrillers serie fans but it,s not for everyone.
Great cinematography althought in colour, the drab and simple settings often give the impression of black & white european style movies,till a gritty violent scenes bring us back to reality. The mood is edgy and challenging and particularly outstanding performances from all the cast. Although Ganglands is uncompromising in its presentation of violence it,s gritty and raw. Despite the graphic violence & action scenes the dialogues scenes are also entertaining it,s one of the best TVserie produced on netflix. More frequent French and european series on netflix is also entertaining and interesting for netflix subcribers.

Had me locked in from start to finish!!! I loved the pace of this show and how the characters were mainly developed through action instead of all the extensive talking like some shows do. One of the main characters "Mehdi" was my favorite. Loved how they didn't have him do too much talking. Also this show did not have a generic happy ending like every other show. The complexity of the plot made this show elite!
