Julien Leclercq and Sami Bouajila have teamed up again! I always enjoy gritty French detective stories; in recent years, I’ve preferred them over Hollywood, which has pretty much exhausted this genre! However, I was a bit worried about the serial format, as I’m not very familiar with French series in this respect. The first episode was promising, with an action-packed opening that was exactly what I expected. But as time went on, it became increasingly clear that the script wasn’t among the stronger aspects, which was disappointing. The acting was fine; everyone did a great job with their roles. The final episode improved the overall impression with its dramatic tone, which I enjoyed (aside from the rushed ending). I had hoped for a slightly better result, but it’s still watchable entertainment. 5.5/10. P.S. Why the digital blood? The sound effects of the weapons were decent along with the nice car chases, but those CGI splatters were a joke :D ()
