In my top 3 shows of all time for sure but i didnt like the ending, all felt rushed and went hollywood style away from the realisim that made the show so epic. Like most shows endings are a disappointment Gomorrah was no different, but a classic TV show that is no doubt.

The only conclusion to end Gomorra. It could've been different but that doesn't mean the ending we got was not Good. The quality of the series has definitely decreased over seasons but it was still a good season.

No surprises for the shows finale. A worthy and satisfying end to one of my all time favourite shows. In comparison to the lofty heights of the previous seasons I would have to admit that the quality has dropped slightly for season 5 but it has still been a gripping, tense and emotional ride. Così a lunga Gomorra!!

Haven't felt this numb at the end of a series for years . Poetic finish to a wonderfully crafted show . The end I think was satisfactory if not shocking .

The ending was just like in Italian opera tragedies.
As an opera fan, I loved it, despite the cliché.
The series is excellent - one of the best I have ever seen. So realistic, full of tension, surprises, ruthlessness, action, plots and great and charismatic characters.
The last season was not as good as the previous ones. It was full of action, twists and killings, but it was less realistic, with many things happening "too conveniently", with some stupid decisions by characters who are supposed to know better. It really felt that they were aiming to finish the story and to close many character story arcs.
Still, I loved this series and I will miss it.

I caught this series recently in Jan 2022 on HBO-max and I was hooked from the 3rd episode.
There are a lot of people disappointed in the last episode, but I wonder if they really have been paying attention at all?
Every major or minor character on this show died, that was the entire theme or the message of this show about that criminal world. Ciro and Genno were no different than anyone else, as "lazy" predictable writing or cliche it may seem to a lot of the viewers, but the ending actually fit the narrative of the show. Ciro and Genno were destined to die, because there are no winners in that world, everyone who took a life, lost a life and everyone was expendable.
I have never ever liked any shows about the Mafia or criminals, I was never fan of "Sopranos", I thought it was very overrated garbage. I did like the "Wire" and there were similarities to this show. But "Gomorrah" was only focused in one world, it was much darker than any American gangster show, not that it had even the same level of violence, but the plot was more like you are watching a Shakespeare play at times, with so many unpredictable twists and betrayals , the cruelty of its characters was what made it so dark.
This show had the most profound affect on me emotionally almost at the end of each episode. I hated these characters; but I liked them at the same time?. I feel sad this show has ended and I feel a void because I honestly don't feel anything can top this for a long time, this is what you call a masterpiece.

After awhile I thought geny was a punk, I'm happy with how things ended, my only issue is with what happened to chiro, the writing with his situation should of been better, it's almost like he gave up, like he was accepting his fate. I didn't like that, for such a wild character he deserved a better ending.

Not the last episode this great TV Series deserved, in my opinion. The motives of Ciro, his bitterness are not quite reflected here. The elephant in the room is the murder of Sangue Blu and not even a word about it in the episode. It could be, It must have been better. So sad.

There were a lot of scenarios and alternatives that we can put to the end of a tv series with 58 episodes and a spin_off movie. But this one is not my favorite. Even if the ending idea and story were not so bad but the plot and how to finish are not good. For a tv series where everything was real and easy to touch a cliche, the ending is not good at all. We could see salvation repentance a regret in the characters. When the series ends everything is finished with it.

Absolutely love this show. It will always be in my top 3 tv shows ever but this last episode was the absolute worst!! From start to finish it was a complete let down and such a shame as I've never felt this after watching any episode from the start.
So it's come to this. After 58 episodes Gomorra has concluded with a lazily written cop out of an ending. Us Gommora fans (particularly us Ciro fans) deserved better than this steaming pile of manure.

Gamorrah in this era of overdrawn and often watered down series, has been a refresher. There have been some great series, but Gamorrah for me is undoubtedly one of the very best anywhere.
However, one things for certain, somewhere along the line in the final season or two, it really has just jumped the shark badly, and this final season shows it badly.
I've loved the characters, the setting and direction. The uncomfortable viewing of these amoral characters plot and backstab each other to end up no further forward than they began has been a guilty pleasure, but the development of the lead characters was a joy.
BUT this season has been a sham, with the entire storyline to the end being almost cringingly bad. Whereas the bulk of the storylines in the seasons are something you could believe, but this season was just a melodrama and lacked any logic. More concerned with drama than the amoral crime & money making which really what gangsterism is all about.
Ciro & Gennaro were brothers, then enemies, then brothers and now enemies to brothers etc.... It just was illogical. Watching all the wannabe gangsters willing to sacrifice themselves for nothing for Ciro, like some mindless cult devotees, was truly bewildering writing. I didn't buy it.
A saving grace though was the arc wrt Mistral & his mistress, which at first seemed unconvincing but which it all the way through, it worked and I wished there was more time to further develop it. A rare joy and only thing that kept this season going.
It's a shame to end five seasons like this, but really go back to the start. The first three are classics and can be watched alone. Like with other box sets, the final season or two can be best left alone. Disappointing, but the final season doesn't ruin the rest of the seasons for me.
