Other reviews have likened Cheyenne & Lola to Thelma and Louise, thats not how I see this series, as far as I recall and I've not seen Thelma and Louise for a very long time, but as I recall they escape and run riot across the United States.
Cheyenne and Lola is deeper in it's story about two women feeling they have no control over their lives and subsequently taking that control back, especially from the "big boss" and proverbial bully Yannick, the local gangster and his gang, which they accomplish with aplomb.
I do like a spot of European cinema so perhaps I'm a little biased, but I really enjoyed the series, even though at the start I was a little sceptical, it got better and better over the 8 episodes, to the final showdown.
I really feel this series deserved another season, but what with Lola getting shot by Babettes hitman, even though she told Lola she didn't care anymore, she clearly wanted revenge, so a second series was pretty unlikely, which is a shame in my humble opinion.
8/10 for me.
