When it comes to Romanian action series, many people tend to compare it to Umbre. It's a mini-series with a decent storyline. You can clearly see the Netflix influence compared to what Romanian audiences are accustomed to in TV shows. Yes, it's not a masterpiece, but I don't think that was the goal. I could mention things I didn't like, but that would involve giving spoilers, which isn't necessary. In the end, Florin Piersic Jr. Is undoubtedly the actor who fits his role the best and adds extra value to the mini-series. So, if you have nothing to do on a day, you can give it a chance. Leave your expectations tied to Umbre aside, as it's not exactly the same type of action and doesn't aim to be.
P. S. Merge de plictiseala!

Not bad actually. Psycho girl was really good. The acting I mean. Same with Ana Ularu, apart from a couple of scenes she was believable. Oase is good too. I don't know any of these actors apart from Ana Ularu, Adriana Trandafir, Florin Piersic and Velea. The gang of gangsters was relatively believable. I liked seeing the sights from Bucharest. The grand tasteless mansions surrounded by concrete and empty land. Very Romanian sadly. Dirty money and no class. So they got that right. Some of the actors were flat in some of the scenes. Surprisingly, Adriana Trandafir was one of them. The writers kept me entertained, I actually binged this, which is rare for me to do. I really appreciated the short miniseries format and I truly hope they do not continue it. Although they left it a little muddled, so I guess they want to leave it open somewhat just for that. Again, it wouldn't work without psycho girl, she pretty much drives at least half the show.
Would not have watched it if it weren't a Romanian series, it's the first one I am watching, the others have had a pretty bad reputation.
I thought the songs on the soundtrack fit the mood. I'm sure Romanians will grumble about the manele and trap. I would too, but it fits. It really does. I don't like it but this is the reality of these people.

This is my first IMDB review, I just wanted to say that this is definitely not a "telenovela" like Lia My Husbands Wife, it deserves more love and less hate, it's really cool and engaging and i really hope they renew it.
It's not a masterpiece and a must see show, but most will enjoy watching it, especially Romanian watchers, to which I recommend it.
Compared to other Romanian TV Shows I think it's a breath of new air.
Florin Piersic Jr has a very interesting villain role and acts it superbly.
The only music genre I don't listen to is HipHop, but the soundtrack for this show is very well picked so i started enjoying HipHop :))

As far as crime series go this one checks all the boxes. Crime lord. Corruption everywhere. Not knowing who to trust. Undercover police. People getting caught up in the mess. Money. Drugs.
The mix is....... fine enough if you don't overthink it. Yes, entire thing was clearly done on a budget. Yes, stuff is resolved via handwavium. Yes, acting can be a bit clunky at times.
It's not a particularly bad series if you are looking for non-English speaking shows, it's just not that great in the end.
It's worth a watch if you have time to kill and nothing better lined up but you'll likely forget it once it's done.

If you have ever watched a good cop gone under cover and a Mafia type Godfather pulling all the usual strings in a city context and liked it, then this is definitely for you. Apparently it's the first Romanian TV cop show to be shown on Netflix and the bar is set really high. You've got all the usual moves of drug lord, kidnapping, corrupt Police and computer hacking as well as under cover agents whose allegiance are not always clear.
There are refreshingly strong female roles not played for decorating the sets or just as eye candy for the male eye!!
I really enjoy European programmes and this Romanian 6 parter kept me interested right to the last scene. It may be set up for a second season. I hope so.
