Blood Coast is really great! It's an action packed thriller serie that knows what it is and doesn't try to be anything else. It just trying to entertain people with interesting crime stories and great action scenes. The director of Netflix Rogue City does incredible job at story telling crime mobs stories in Marseille, France. This serie is good entertainment for people that enjoy action thriller series. This serie will keep you hooked and on the edge of your seat throughout the season. You'll want to binge all the episodes. This new serie is doing amazing storytelling set in a european country. This serie could become a success on Netflix it,s easily one of the best new action thriller series.

France seems to have worse problems than many other countries with law breaking and the impenetrability of the "Cités" to law enforcement. It's bad everywhere in Europe, of course, but Marseilles seems to have it worst even in France. The city has a reputation for corruption so we can't be surprised that the series shows graft both at the highest levels and lower down in the narc squad we are following here.

The action is fast and furious, bodies pile up and a tripartite war between two rival gangs and the cops plays out. We're getting what's probably a year's worth of killing and mayhem compressed into six episodes but the series doesn't suffer from that as there's always something going on in the action.

I enjoyed this and hope there will be a season two.

It is another depiction of the worsening reality in France and many Western Europe's countries.

What I liked here is that the plot is not concentrated on one gang, but two and the war between them. Then you put the war the police is involved with all the consequences of the first (which all results in some good action) and on top of everything we have the bureaucracy and the corruption. Yet, for only six episodes, there was enough time to see every character's personal life's dramas, which was very nice and means there are no unnecessary scenes just for the volume, but it's all about quality.

Different characters, very good acting, I liked the soundtrack a lot and I would love to give 7.5 stars, but it isn't possible.

It didn't met my expectations. I thought the high vote of actually 7/10 on IMDb would be worth a watch. The first episodes looked promisingly but the next went slowly downhill until I stopped it. I mean the story is not full of.turns and plots and was just turning in the circle without any meaningful actions.

The best drug series so far are the Italian ones: Suburraeterna and Gomorrah. You will note quickly the difference.

Finally it became boring and a sleeper. Then there were some wholes that was not logic and that I cannot spoil here further.

For all these reasons i vote 5/10.

It is too overrated here.

Superb show, gripping from start to finish. The pace never lets up from the first scenes. Fine acting from all involved. Suitably menacing villains, compromised cops, and the looming threat of bureaucracy/ internal affairs. 6 episodes - perfect, none of this never ending series nonsense. The fact that is a genre piece means we all know the basic plotlines and so no need for overly boring character exposition. Plenty of space for the viewer to fill in the gaps and round out the characters for ourselves. If only the yanks and the brits could make something half as decent without all the usual fanfare.
