La nuit sera longue

Web series review: The Longest Night streaming on Netflix #sanjuzzreviews #netflixseries #netflixindia #thelongestnight #psychologicalthriller This psychological thriller starts off very well with a serial killer being finally apprehended after a string of heinous murders commited by him.

But apparently he has some friends in high places who don't want him speaking to the judge the next morning, as he is a treasure trove of secrets which can make a lot of important people uncomfortable.

So the police convoy escorting him is diverted for a night to a phychiatric institution housing a lot of loony characters. Then begins a cat and mouse game between the ill-equipped security guards at the institution and a gang of mercenaries sent to free him.

Seems like a good plot, but hey .. prepare to be surprised ...boo hoo🙂 Disappointed that this one long night which drags on for 6 long episodes, all for the story to not wrap up at the end. Not the greatest of execution by the makers. Too many sub plots and no conclusive ending make you feel really frustrated.

There is sure to be a second season coming soon which might probably give us some answers to the happenings in season 1.

So friends.. my recommendation will be to skip this for now and watch seasons 1 and 2 together when season 2 streams on Netflix.

Not rating this for now as it wudnt be fair till we get the entire story in season 2 .... Adios 🙂

Of course this good series is inspired from something else. Maybe too much. It could have been grittier, more violent, with less psychological elements and especially a different ending; why this one which leads to nowhere? It is frustrating at the most. And I think that a simple long movie would have been better. Here, it is too much, we rapidly lose interest as it proceeds after second or third season. Too many things. Too complex. It becomes a fashion, that's the problem. MONEY HEIST in a jail, with something from ASSAULT....

Awful and totally unrealistic . Its a real 2nd division thriller with everybody acting badly . I just gave up by the third episode.....i doubt it got much better.

This was a pretty good series but dragged on. You never really knew why they were after the prisoner and then it ended without you knowing anymore than when the series started. Plus, there is no word that there will be a season 2 to clear all the confusion up. If I had known how they were going to leave the ending, I would have waited to see if there was a season 2 and watch both together.

Very entertaining show. I wish they wouldn't have cut the season into 2 parts, but definitely looking forward to the conclusion. Many seem to think it ended like that but it was just that they cut the season in 2 like Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad, Money Heist and many others.
