Not impressed (SPOILERS)
A predictable series that is obviously going to invite comparisons with "The Godfather" "Once upon a time in America" and many others. Unfortunately there is no comparison.
I have watched the first two series and I am not really enjoying it all that much. I knew instantly when the dog was introduced that it was only there to be killed. This is an unpleasant trait in European films - especially Scandinavian.
I didn't feel any sympathy for any of the characters.
I would also like to go to Honduras where you can buy a brain cell and an attitude and a freaky haircut !!
Note to scriptwriters - just because people call out "Hey Genny - look how skinny you are" does not actually mean that we believe them!! He just wore tighter clothing and he got even fatter towards the end. I didn't think this part was acted very well- his expression never changed from start to finish.
I also got fed up with the face to face nose touching confrontations between Ciro and others. Was there any need for that?
And as for the cross eyed doodle-ally Don - well - he just could not be taken seriously!
Also, I've never seen so many saggy bottoms in all my life - what is it with jeans in Naples?
And those bikes! I mean I expected Harley Davidsons for big hard men - instead I got Noddies.!
I have watched it all now and it hasn't really left an impression - unlike "The Godfather" however bad the characters were you somehow cared about what happened to some of them - in this series there wasn't one sympathetic character which made it very one note.
