Summary
Reviewers say 'Dom' is a gripping Brazilian crime thriller exploring addiction, crime, and family loyalty. The series is lauded for its strong character development, especially the Pedro-Victor dynamic, and the authentic Rio de Janeiro setting. However, some critics find it overly reliant on clichés and lacking depth. Pedro's character portrayal is criticized for romanticizing criminal behavior. Dubbing and subtitles receive complaints for being poorly executed. Despite these issues, the engaging narrative and strong performances are widely commended.

Very good plot, based on a true story, exceptional acting especially Gabriel Leone who plays Pedro Dom. Pedro Dom the head character is intelligent, grew up with his family outside of the favela, but he's hungry for more and doesn't know fear, due to something missing in his brain. He's comes from a good family, but is attracted to the favela. His best friend is from the favela and from a young age they start using drugs and Dom lives for adrenaline. Than when he gets older he proceeds to being a criminal and with his tactics robs houses and basically he and his gang mates (women and males) are all greedy, they want more money, more sex and more drugs.
The series also is about the father that cares for his son (Pedro Dom) and tries to help him get off drugs. You'll also see the father when he was younger and gets dragged into a secret mission as a diver and after that goes undercover in the favela in the 1970's and becomes close to a drugslord. You basically see the war on drugs and the father is part of that.
Overall, it's a good series and a big bonus is also the behind the scenes videos on Amazon prime, so you'll understand the story and characters better.

It's not easy to escape the clichés when talking about crime and drug trafficking in Rio de Janeiro. We see the sensuality and rawness of funk balls, guns, swear words, cocaine lines, sex, but Dom offers much more than that. The story revolves around the relationship between Dom and his father, who does everything to save the boy predestined to a tragic life. The two are on opposite sides: the father on the side of law and responsibility and the son with two feet rooted in marginality and vice.
A breathtaking series, with 8 electrifying chapters of a lot of drama, humor, action and reenactment of an exquisite period, the highlight, at the end, is the direction of actors. Gabriel Leone and Pedro Lima at the front. Director Breno Silveira is an ace, he knows how to extract emotion from actors like no one else.
Another quality of the series is the contextualization of the Carioca environment in the 60s and 70s, showing the beginning of drug sales in the favelas and police corruption, including in the military sphere, during the dictatorship, with a general dealing weapons for the bandits, protected by dome.
A super-production like that is not common in Brazil.
