It's a difficult one to review. Firstly there are 8 episodes and over 40 minutes per episode. This is a lot of TV. I think it is just too much for what it is trying to perceive. It could have been compressed into a movie and I think that would have justified it a lot more as it is just a very tired and overrun and extremely cliched series.
The best thing is that the protagonist is a women. It does have a great diverse casting and I like the actors; especially the big bodyguard/fixer; Simon; who is acted superbly by. Steve Tientcheu as well as Jeremy Nadeau as the unfortunate cop Elie and Sandor Funtek does a good enough job as Orso.
The main casts are female which is great and rare in a hitman movie. I just am quite bored of the repetitive plot. There are long and drawn-out violent scenes where in real life people won't survive.
You won't survive a chest of rigged explosives if you stood a few metres from it. You won't survive an x number of bullets into the same area. You won't surive some other scenes either.
That's what annoys me. It's constant where it's make belief and not reality. Acting is there and solid but the script is just badly-written and it's always a twist in the storyline. I am on episode 8 and I just watched the most ridiculous gun show in the 7th episode.
There's a lot of amazing French cinema but this looks like it got snapped-up on the cheap after the success of Lupin. Please try harder.
