Mocro maffia (2018– )
5/10
Struggles with fundamental storytelling elements.
1 December 2018
Despite its promising source material, the show falls short of its potential.

From the onset, it becomes evident that "Mocro Maffia" struggles with fundamental storytelling elements. The narrative feels disjointed, lacking the cohesive structure necessary to engage viewers. Character development is notably absent, putting characters on screen that feel shallow and unrelatable. The dialogue often comes across as contrived and lacking in authenticity and it ultimately fails to deliver on the fundamental aspects of storytelling that elevate a series to international or Hollywood standards.

Nevertheless, amidst these shortcomings, the series manages to shine in one aspect: its performances. The main cast delivers commendable portrayals, injecting moments of greatness into a lackluster script. Their dedication to their roles is evident, providing a glimmer of hope amidst the show's overall mediocrity.

Ultimately, "Mocro Maffia" may appeal to a specific audience seeking a gritty portrayal of crime in the Netherlands. However, for those used to watching American or British crime shows, it may fall short of expectations.
