Promising start

[Call-Me-Mr-Smith · 8/10 · 5 October 2021]

Solid first episode which definitely cuts the muster. Good story, acting and photography, perhaps some hiccups with editing, but overall very satisfying experience. The series has a bit of the Scandinavian flair, which is not usually seen on national TV.

Excellent start falls apart at the end

[igor-karlovic · 7/10 · 3 November 2021]

This series has its special vibe with the music and location (mix of urban Belgrade and the small town of Subotica). The plot takes off good and reaches its peak in Ep 8 (especially if you lived in the old Yugoslavia), and then just fallls aparts just like the main character. The mixture of Broen and Xmen seems two much to hold it together with politics. The last two episodes the plot and acting should be changed and the series would be excellent. In the end no character is important, just the Serbian Secrect Service elusive influence on all processes and people in Serbia. With no backdrop info about these people this series was a very good try which missed the main target.

Well done depressing dystopia

[elenagnaskova · 8/10 · 14 October 2021]

This unique series is above all a dystopia, as defined in the Free Dictionary: "Dystopia is realism, at least when it is done well. It depicts the world as it really is, through the refractive prism of extreme metaphor. ... " I really enjoyed watching it, until it left me said and depressed.

There is a nice twist somewhere around the sixth episode.

And nope, this is not a cookie cutter Hollywood cops, good guys and bad guys story where at the end everyone gets what they deserve.

And that's what makes this series so unique.

Great show with a not so great season finale

[belizec · 9/10 · 20 October 2021]

Really enjoyed the show, everything was great - acting, directing, dialogue. I often have problems with local TV shows having terrible acting and/or unnatural conversations and character psychology (almost as though they are underestimating viewer standards), so seeing something like this got me very excited.

Episode 8 was by far the best, acting was superb (especially Stojan and young Sonja), my emotional involvement was at its peak.

The only thing I didn't like was the final episode of the season. To me, parts of the plot did not make any sense, and it felt as though the writers knew what they wanted each character to do, but how they got them to those actions is questionable.

Ok, I also don't like that I can no longer listen to Seti se nase ljubavi without crying.

actors great

[gonny80 · 7/10 · 13 April 2023]

From this series, I had high expectations and they were met. Although the last few episodes are somewhat disappointing, except for the episode with the father, the overall impression is very good. I'm sorry that a good story was rounded off with a bad and implausible ending. The actors are great, and the direction is very decent. I also liked the design of the entire series and the inner world of the main character. You can feel the lack of money in production, but the team handles this problem skillfully. Congratulations to the entire team, especially the young screenwriters, actress Ivana Vukovic, and the production."

Impressive mixture of everything

[novakmaletin · 8/10 · 10 October 2021]

It very prescious for us to have a lot of things that looks like they are not complying to the each at the first look but they are perfectly connected in the same scenes. That is what makes this series outstanding first class achievement. Very proufoundly excaping from boredom and overacting.

Exceptionally slow and tedious beginning, but a brilliant development of the story

[kat_mne · 7/10 · 20 November 2023]

In the first few episodes plot is painfully slow and drawn out. Later, story becomes intriguing. Episode 8 is a masterpiece. It is emotional, touching, nostalgic, like a strange, misty dream... an episode you'll be thinking about long after you've watched the series.

Constraint of budget in the production is, unfortunately, apparent and visible (budget-friendly set design and bunch of unknown actors).

Vahid Dzankovic is exceptional! It's been quite a while since an actor has left such a profound impression on me. I hope great future and many high-profile roles are ahead of him. Ivana Vukovic is beautiful, with a captivating screen presence. Marija Petrovic, portraying the character of little Sonja, delivers a truly spectacular performance! Zoltan Devai is brilliant in his miniature! Stefan Vukic and Ivana Jovanovic are delivering fine performances. Natasa (Solak) Tapuskovic, to be frank, left me somewhat disappointed. However, I must add that her character speaks mostly in English, which undoubtedly adds an extra layer of complexity to her role.

Disappointing

[Missdismissed · 6/10 · 3 November 2021]

Never seen so many cliches in my life and I've only watched 2 episodes so far. A detective with an unfaithful husband gets transferred to a smaller town to avoid being suspended, her troubled child has nightmares (haven't I seen that one before) and her bosses are giving her hard time by covering up crimes. And of course she meets a cute local guy after only few days. I was hoping for so much more with this show.

Worst end, disastre

[larabrkovic · 1/10 · 6 February 2022]

Shame for the end. Not worth of watching. Waisted time. The worst end that I saw ever. Foundation won on all fields. Bad, bad sceanrio. Kristhian is an idiot. Stojan kill himself for nothing. There is no point. Dont look this show.
