Overall I think it's a good series, definitely for Dutch TV standards. If I would compare it with a series I would say it's like the Dutch version of Gomorrah.
But what I'm dissapointed about is what the series could have been. The creators originally based the series on a book thats written about the Mocro Maffia by some journalists. With that in mind, the series had the potential to be a Dutch The Wire. I would have liked if they showed problems in the community of Amsterdam, and how young kids are drawn into that mocro mafia world. But they didnt take that opportunity and went with the safe choice to replicate Gomorrah and some bits of Breaking Bad.
Examples of some bad choices imo:
Examples of some bad choices imo:
- The main villain, Paus, is a really bad cast. But he is the writer of the scenario so yeah he gave himself a nice role.
- the scene where the young moroccan police officer doesnt call for back up in the car and wont show his badge to the officers that were standing him up. Really bad unrealistic scene, and there more scenes like this.
