Is it just me? Did no one else find season 2 moronic and error filled?

***************Spoliers************


Ok so lets start with the plot

A corrupt police oficer facing prison, is allowed to "escape" as part of a secret op, and fake kill people . Now a high profile fugitive sought for murder, and face plastered accross national news, he nevertheless casually walks around crowded Paris and all his usual hotspots and teams with his coleagues to steal a gun that shoots through people, so long as they wear a special bracelet.

This science fiction weapon (in what is supposed to be a cop show) is demonstrated to the audience by way of 1 of the characters inviting a bunch of millionaires round to a conference, shooting the gun at them (without telling them what it is) and having them joyously applaud, the bullet holes behind them as if a machine gun had not just been fired at them.

And the businesswoman who wants them to steal this miracle weapon, is the owner herself, in order so that she can kill the president of Angola, with the weapon and not get blamed.

Yet despite going to such lenghs to avoid blame for this political assasination and kill absolutely everyone involved, (around which the whole season is supposed to spin) when the moment to kill the Angolan president comes, she informs him, his own aides and senior advisers to the French president that she is going to kill him, which seems to defeat the whole purpose of stealing the gun and killing all involved in the first place.

Lying between this business woman (who has been sitting on a grudge for 18 years before conveniently deciding to act just now) and the ex cops, are 4 ex special forces who begin the season by shooting up a bunch of random innocent families, solely to gain position for a raid.

Despite not thinking twice about killing women and children, their characters are by the second half of the season totally transformed into these ultimate men of honour who do everything solely to honor their fallen comrades and their families and whos word is bond and refuse to kill caplan or his coleagues even after finding out that he has killed their brother, and even after they find out that he has betrayed them them

The behaviour of Caplan and the others is also confusing (considering the whole point of the show is that they are supposed to be among the best cops in France). To check if someone is wearing a wire they merely ask them to lift their shirts as if it was still the 60's and the police couldnt get a more sophisticated recording device then a casette strapped to the stomach. This is nevertheless a lot more than they do when the colonel gives them a car. Despite the mutual distrust between them, they nevertheless start plotting about how they will betray him immediately upon entering it.
Speaking of cars, 1 of the cops is totally broke, and the others are very poor, yet this does not stop them from sparingly crashing their cars into suspects and leaving them on the road.

Another bizzare action comes to mind from the first episodes of the season, where they spend almost all their efforts on killing the big bald gangster from season 1 (lemoine). When they finally find him - shooting up an entire mafia family with a machine gun on the street in broad daylight, and have their scopes set on him, they deliberately call out his name and wait for him to turn around and start shooting back. This forces them to duck for cover and allows him to run off. Top cops indeed.

The criminals are even more amateur. None of the criminals have any manpower whatsoever, nor do they take any precautions against being killed.

The superbusinesswoman who just invented a gun which shoots through people and is the sole owner of this gun in the entire world and mixes daily with top generals, presidential advisors and foreign leaders, uses for her entire conspiracy 1 careless assasin, who not only runs the entire operation and takes out all enemies himself, but also is the one charged to carry out the presidential assasination. This careless assasin never even checks to see if he is being watched or followed, even when Caplan car is literraly a few metres away from him.

This nevertheless greatly tops Lemoin who has absolutely no manpower and runs his entire and rather sophisticated operation entirely by himself.

The old woman, who has enough money to buy 400 blocks of gold like candy, has her 2 sons and 2 guards to run her multi million euro conspiracy, whereas the the Jewish or Sweedish mafia or whatever it was, which at 1 point it is said is worth hundreds of millions of euros, has a luxurious 2 workers, and the entire organization is wiped out by a pizza delivery boy with 4 bullets, in 10 seconds. Internatiolan criminal organization, gone, just like that.

The corrupt general who despite being warned by 2 differnet people that they will kill him, still leaves no one to protect him at the door and killer simply walks in and kills him. Lemoin meanwhile walks into the lions den all alone himself. The lawyer who at the beginning wields so much power has only 2 workers himself and also is killed easily. The Colombians who promise Caplan that they will find him and kill him, do nothing.

Whereas most shows take a season to get through 1 criminal organization, or even 1 enemy often more than 1, Braquo gets through 6, all wiped out, in about 5 episodes and has dozens of antagonists.

And Vogel. Normally a character going from Elliot Ness, to hannibal lector to mohammed atta in 4 episodes would raise some alarm bells, but in this show it seems no more bizzare than anything else.

He clearly though made no preperations to go to war against the police department, he has not been shown making the money required for that, and the scene with the thug selling him the bomb showed that he is clearly on his own.

Yet he has just told a police officer that he is responsible for the murder of 1 policeman and that he is about to kill another 3.

12 rounds is a crap movie and has a rating of 5.5 on here. But at least the criminal in 12 rounds was a mega rich international mastermind, and not a broke ex cop on his own, so it made sense in that regard.

But looking at the scores for Braquo on here, it seems likely braquo season 3 will get a higher score than 12 rounds, and i do wonder how many of those extra points will be simply, because it is french.
